PREFACE

Someone has rightly said that practical experience is far better and closer to the real world than mere theoretical exposure. The practical experience helps the students to view the real business world closely, which in turn widely influences their perceptions and arguments their understanding of the real situation. The phenomenon of creation is a long process requiring time, energy and dedications well as skill and experience of those people engaged in the task, ultimately in the outcome as the final form of embodiment of the creator's vision. Research work constitutes the backbone of any management education program. A management student has to do research work quite frequently during her entire span. MBA is a stepping stone to management career in order to reach practical and concrete results. Our contemporary lives have been influenced by the advancement and growth in industry. Wherein, the ultra-modern and advanced lifestyles of the 21st century are unthinkable. This study aims to explore all such phases.This summer training report is a result of 6 weeks training that I had at Star Union Dai-Ichi Life Insurance It has been very educative and fruitful experience for me, it has given me insights into some practical aspects of Absenteeism, without which classroom knowledge can be regarded as incomplete.
