Globalization is a multi-faceted and multi-dimensional term that has a very broad definition and has become incorporated into various fields of study. It implies the opening of local and nationalistic perspectives to a broader outlook of an interdependent world with free transfer of capital, goods and services across the national frontiers. Globalization has led to the formation of new socio-economic and political conditions which have made it difficult for the trade unions to function in traditional ways. Globalization has resulted in the emergence of the state with an investor friendly, pro-employer policy and reduced role in industrial relations. The last few years have witnessed much advancement in labour and employment practices in India, especially in the fields of trade unions. The growth and development of trade unions has been a major factor in changing the labour scenario and the trade union movement has moved from the periphery to the centre-stage in a remarkable manner thereby affecting the decision making of potential investors. It seems that now-a-days regional integration and the globalization opened up for discussion a number of issues and question arising from comparative labour law and its application to legal regimes in Asian societies. Especially, this questions are important for thousands of migrant workers all around the world. As the modern global world provides labour force with many opportunities to move around, but provide little support and protection for the migrant workers. Trade unions of migrant workers has a major role to play in the era of globalization.
