Employment practices of Magna International Inc. Comparative study between the multinational Company and its subsidiary San Luis Metal Forming: Inclusion and comparable innovation?

Abstract

Objective: Compare the case of the San Luis Metal Forming (SLMF) auto parts Company, one of the subsidiaries established in Mexico of the multinational Magna International Inc. Methodology: It is comprised of an analysis of the employment practices and benefits, for both the employees of the corporation and those of its subsidiary, with the purpose of determining what type of jobs are generated and if their quality is comparable to the principles espoused by the corporation on a global level. Results: A series of categories called "principles" was formed with which the organizational model established by the multinational and the model applied by the subsidiary were compared. Limitations: Presently, both for multinational companies as well as the governments of host countries, carrying out practices that will contribute to the strengthening of social development has become an ideal that is increasingly more important, and which in many cases is directly related to the development of innovation, unfortunately in the host countries this is demonstrated in less growth.  Conclusions: This work made evident the gap existing between the multinational and SLMF and how this is determined by local policies.
