New York (ANTARA News/PRNewswire-AsiaNet) - Keeping pace with the global business boom in the Middle East, ORC Worldwide(R), a human resource management consulting company headquartered in New York, has opened its first Middle East branch to customers in the Gulf.
"Dubai is in the midst of major growth and to be here at the center of that activity is very important to any business," said John Macdonald, Managing Director of the Middle East for ORC. "ORC has been serving this region for years, but our relationships will now flourish with more direct contact."
As western-based corporations expand globally, Dubai has become a popular destination for many reasons. Operating conditions are among the most favorable in the Middle East, its economy is strong, and it has a well- developed commercial infrastructure. And as the economic climate becomes more sophisticated, experts believe there is a need for advancements in human resource and compensation programs follows.
"This is a considerable opportunity for ORC to offer its knowledge and experience of compensation, reward, talent management and other human resource services to companies expanding their operations in the UAE and for local companies who need to develop their HR practices," said Siobhan Cummins, Managing Director of ORC's Worldwide EMEA.
In fact, ORC has already expanded its staff to respond to the requests from companies seeking assistance in obtaining salary-market data, designing compensation structures and training their employees on how to manage compensation and reward.
"There is a need for specialist consulting firms in this region. ORC is well-placed to help local companies to thrive and build their own capacity," Macdonald said.
