practices does not described the technic used by the company - "strong-arm tactics" and "forceful tactics" describe it very well.
Any idea of which of the two is the more "forceful" one ?
TesCor - Apr 20, 2005:
or as Charlie so well put it, the local workforce.
TesCor - Apr 20, 2005:
Well there you go NewCal; XXX's practices will never be accepted by the local employees.
Non-ProZ.com Apr 20, 2005:
it concerns a foreign company's general practice towards local employees when the said company is overseas - for example a Chinese company working Russia.

strong-arm tactics

We appear to be talking about some kind of industrial relations issue, is that right? The management trying to force the workers to accept something?

See http://www.tssa.org.uk/article-101.php3?id_article=148

Which just happens to be the first hit for a google search on:
["strong arm tactics" +"industrial relations"]

There's plenty of others.
