The roles of HR Professionals are also changing due to dramatic rate of change in today’s organizations. It has been advocated that the role of the HR Professionals must parallel the needs of changing organization. It has been argued that globalization leads to more strategic role for Human Resource (HR) managers (Scullion and Starkey 2001). For measuring HR roles, most popular four roles model of Ulrich (1997) is used in the present research. Degree of Internationalization (DOI) is measured through Composite scale developed by (Sullivan 1994). The scales were tested for unidimensionality, reliability, response and non response biases and all kind of concerned validities. Thereafter measurement model was developed for the proposed relationships using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) through the capabilities of Lisrel 8.80. The findings corroborates with the existing literature reporting strong relationship of DOI with all the four roles proposed by Dave Ulrich especially with strategic role.
