Description: The CEO has asked you and Jane to create a chart that he might use as part of his decision process in deciding what countries in which to locate overseas factories. He also wants an accompanying recommendation summary from an HR perspective. • Prepare a 6-column, 5-row chart for the following countries and parameters: o Columns (countries) are:  Japan  Mexico  India  China  Italy  Germany o Rows (factors to research) for each country are:  Average manufacturing wage  Country's minimum wage  Typical restrictive work rules where there are unions  How unions enhance or detract from company results  Country's unemployment rate o It is unlikely that you will find all of the necessary data in one online database.
