Emerging Hr Issues In Virtual Organization 
The HR issues such as recruitment and socialization process 
are forms of managerial control. These inputs control and regulate the 
antecedent conditions of performance, ensuring that the employee’s 
skills knowledge, attitudes values and interest match those of employing 
organization.
In a virtual organization there are loose organizations of highly 
proficient people who are left to “do their own thing” in order to produce 
world beating products or services. The shift towards virtual organization 
is associated with a fundamental realignment and reordering of jobs. 
Knowledge-based jobs are assumed to require greater skills, have greater 
variety and offer more potential for a high quality of work life (QWL). 
The positive side in virtual job is greater job autonomy and more 
financial stability, free transport, free lunch and clothing. The negative 
side is increased working hours, work-related stress and changed social 
relationship. Highly skilled workers are needed. Jobs are variable and 
short term. People should be multi-skilled.
