dc.description.abstractThe inception of Shifa Hospital in the capital city was an idea of Pakistani entrepreneurstrained in the USA, who laid the basis of its management and organizational structures on theprinciples of a modern Western organization. SIH is one of the few organizations in Pakistanwhere a Department of Human Resource Management and Development was establishedon a diffused Western model where it is fairly functional to handle employee and otherrelated social aspects of the corporation. The execution of a foreign human resourcemanagement model has set up a progressive impression in the labor market. SIH is famousfor its non-traditional working style, organizational layout, and value of job experience in thenational as well as international market. These organizational traits not only attract peoplefrom all regions of Pakistan but also draw employees from neighboring countries. Its diversestaff, organizational structure and working policies make it an ideal site to study the issue of adiffused human resource management model in a local setting.
