Findings of the study concludes that Globalization directly and indirectly affect the Human Resource management practices in Nigerian businesses.As globalization has brought about rapid changes in the HR policies of most organizations and has led to upward review of the income and compensation structure of most Nigerian organizations. The downside of globalization with respect to HRM is that it has led to the movement of highly skilled staff overseas.The study recommends among other organizations should maintain flexible human resource policies so as to reflect the changes in the global and local labour market. The era of reviewing HR policies within a rigidly stipulated long term period (say for instance, every 5years or 10 years) is over. It is essentially the dynamics of global forces that determines the frequency of such changes.
