CHAPTER - I
ABOUT THE TOPIC
“Training is the act of increasing knowledge and skills of an employee for doing
a particular job”
According to Flippo, the main output of training is learning. Training offers and
inculcates new habits, refined skills and useful knowledge during the training that helps him
improve performance.
Training aids an employee to do his present job more efficiently and prepare him for a
higher level of job. Therefore, the training is planned programme designed to improve
performance and bring about measurable change in knowledge, skills, attitude and social
behavior of employees.
Training is learning experience that is planned and carried out by the organization to
enable more skilled task behavior by the trainee. Training provides the ability to detect and
correct error. Training provides skills and abilities that may be called on in three futures to
satisfy the organizations human resource needs. Training is given on the job or in the latter
case it may be on site or off site perhaps in a motel or a training centre or it may be in a
simulated environment that is thought to be similar to the work environment in important
respects. Finally, the trainees acquire abilities and knowledge that will enable them to
perform their jobs more effectively.
Organization and individual should develop and progress simultaneously for their
survival and attainment of mutual goals. So every modern management to develop the
organization through human resources development. Employee training is the important sub-
1
system of human resource development. Employee training is a specialized function and is
one of the fundamental operative functions for human resources management.
CONCEPTS OF TRAINING AND DEVELOPEMENT
After an employee is selected, placed and introduced he or she must be provided with
training facilities. Training is the act of increasing the knowledge and skill of an employee
for doing a particular job. Training is a short-term educational process and utilizing a
systematic and organized procedure by which employees learn technical knowledge and sills
for a definite purpose. Dales. Beach defines the training s the organized procedure by which
people learns knowledge and or skill for a definite purpose.
In other words training improves, changes, moulds the employee’s knowledge, skill,
behavior, aptitude, and attitude towards the requirements of the job and organization.
Training refers to the teaching and learning activities carried on for the primary purpose of
helping members of an organization, to acquire and apply the knowledge, skills, abilities and
attitudes needed by a particular job and organization.
Thus, training bridge the difference between job requirements and employee’s present
specifications.

IMPORTANCE OF TRAINING
The importance of human resource management to a large extent depends on human
resource development. Training is the most important technique of human resource
development. As stated earlier, no organization can get a candidate who exactly matches
with the job and the organizational requirements. Hence, training is important to develop the
employee and make him suitable to the job.
Job and organizational requirements are not static, they are changed from time to time
in view of technological advancement and change in the awareness of the Total Quality and
Productivity Management. The objective of the TQM can be achieved only through training
as training develops human skills and efficiency. Trained employees would be a valuable
asset to an organization. Organizational efficiency, productivity, progress and development
to a greater extent depend on training. Organizational objectives like viability, stability and
growth can also be achieved through training. Training is important as it constitutes
significant part of management control.

NEED FOR TRAINING
Every organization big or small, productive or non-productive, economic or social,
old or newly established should provide training to all employees irrespective of their
qualification, skill, suitability for the job etc. Thus, no organization can choose whether or
not to train employees.
Training is not something that is done once to new employees; it is used continuously
in every well-run establishment. Further, technological changes, automation, require up-
dating the skills and knowledge. As such an organization has to retrain the old employees.
Specifically, the need for training arises due to the following reasons.
4
To match the Employee specifications with the job requirements and Organizational
Needs: An employee’s specification may not exactly suit to the requirements of the job and
the organization irrespective of his past experience, qualifications, skills, knowledge etc.
Thus, every management finds deviations between employee’s present specifications and the
job requirements and organizational needs. Training is needed to fill these gaps by
developing and molding the employee’s skill, knowledge, attitude, behavior etc. To the tune
of the job requirements and organizational needs
Organizational viability and the transformation process: The primary goal of most
organizations is their viability is continuously by environmental pressure. If the organization
does not adapt itself to the changing factors in the environment, it will lose its market share.
If the organization desires to adapt these changes, first it has to train the employees to impart
specific skills and knowledge in order to enable them to contribute to the organizational
efficiency and to cope with the changing environment.
Technological advance: Every organization in order to survive and to be effective
should adopt the latest technology, i.e., mechanization, computerization and automation.
Adoption of latest technological means and methods will not be complete until they are
manned by employees possessing skill to operate them, so organization should train the
employees to enrich them in the areas of changing technical skills and knowledge from time
to time.
Organizational complexity: With the emergence of increased mechanization and
automation, manufacturing of multiple products and by-products or dealing in services of
diversified lines, extension of operations to various regions of the country or in overseas
countries, organization hierarchy. This creates the complex problems of coordination and
5
integration of activities adaptable for and adaptable to the expanding and diversifying
situations. This situation calls for training
Human relations
Change in the job assignment
THE NEED FOR TRAINING ALSO ARISES TO
Increase productivity
Improve quality of the product
Help a company to fulfill its future personnel needs.
Improve organizational climate.
Improve health and safety.
Prevent obsolescence
Effect personal growth
Minimize the resistance to change.
TRAINING OBJECTIVES
Generally line managers ask the personnel manager to formulate the training policies.
The personnel Manager formulate the following raining objectives in keeping with the
Company’s goals and objectives.
To prepare the employee both new and old to meet the present as well as the
changing requirements of the job and the organizations.
To prevent obsolescence
To impart the new entrants the basic knowledge and skill they need for an
intelligent performance of definite job
To prepare employees for higher-level tasks.
6
To assist employees to function more effectively in their present position by
exposing them to the latest concepts, information and techniques and
developing the skills they will need in their particular fields.
To develop the potentialities of people for the next level job.
To ensure smooth and efficient working of a department
To ensure economical output of required quality
To promote individual and collective morale, a sense of responsibility, co-
operative attitudes and good relationships.
ASSESSMENT OF TRAINING NEEDS
Training needs are identified on the basis of organizational analysis, job analysis and
man analysis. Training programme, training methods and course content are to be planned on
the basis of training needs. Training needs are those aspects necessary to perform the job in
an organization in which employee is lacking attitude/aptitude, knowledge, and skill.
Training needs= Job and organizational requirement-Employee specification
Organizational Analysis: This includes analysis of objectives, resource utilization,
environment scanning and organizational climate Organizational strength and weaknesses in
different areas like accidents, excessive scrap, frequent breakage of machinery, excessive
Labour turnover, market share, and other marketing areas etc.
Department Analysis: Departmental strength and weakness including special
problems of the department or a common problem of a group of employees like acquiring
skills and knowledge in operating computer by accounting personnel.
Job role Analysis: This includes study of jobs/roles, design of jobs due to change, job
enlargement, and job enrichment etc.
7
Man power Analysis: Individual strengths and weaknesses in the areas of job
knowledge, skills etc.
ASSESSMENT METHOD
The following methods are used to assess the training needs:
Organizational requirement/weakness
Departmental requirements/weakness
Job specifications and employee specifications
Identifying specific problems
Anticipating future problems
Management’s requests
Observation
Interviews
Group Conferences
Questionnaire surveys.
PRINCIPLE OF TRAINING
Providing training in the knowledge of different skills is a complex process. A
number of principles have been evolved which can be followed as guideless by the trainees.
Some of them are as follows:
Motivation
Progress information
Reinforcement
Practice
Full Vs part
Individual differences
TRAINING METHOD
As a result of research in the field of training, a number of programmes are available.
Some of these are new methods. While other are improvements over the traditional methods.
The training programmes commonly used to train operative and supervisory personnel.

ON-THE JOB METHODS
OFF-THE JOB METHODS
ON-THE JOB METHODS
This type of training, also known as job instruction training, is the most commonly
used method. Under this method, the individual is placed on a regular job and taught the
skills necessary to perform that job. The trainee learns under the supervision and guidance of
a qualified worker or instructor. On-the-job training has the advantage of giving first hand
knowledge and experience under the actual working conditions. While the trainee learns how
to perform a job, he is also a regular worker rendering the services for which he is paid. The
problem of transfer of trainee is also minimized as the person learns on-the-job. The
emphasis is placed on rendering services in the most effective manner rather than learning
how to perform the job. On-the-job training methods include job rotation, coaching, job
instruction or training through step-by-step and committee assignment. The types of on the
job methods are given below
JOB ROTATIONS
This type of training involves the movement of the trainee from one job to another.
The trainee receives job knowledge and gain experience from his supervisor or trainer in each
of the different job assignments.
COACHING
The trainee is placed under a particular supervisor functions as a coach in training the
individual. The supervisor provides who feedback to the trainee on his performance and
offers him some suggestions for improvement. A limitation of this method of training is that
the trainee may not have the freedom or opportunity to express hi own ideas.
9
JOB INSTRUCTION
This method is also known as training through step by step. Under this method,
trainer explains the trainee the way of doing the jobs, job knowledge and skills and allows
him to do the job.
COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS
Under the committee assignment, group of trainees are given and asked to solve an
actual organizational problem. The trainees solve the problem jointly. Its develops
teamwork.
OFF-THE JOB METHODS
Under this method of training, trainee is separated from the job situation and his
attention is focused upon learning the material related to his future job performance. Since
the trainee is not distracted by job requirements, he can place his entire concentration on
learning the job rather than spending his time in performing it. There is an opportunity for
freedom of expression for the trainees.
Off-the-job training methods are as follows:
VESTIBULE TRAINING
In this method, actual work conditions are simulated I a classroom. Material, files
and equipment those are used in actual job performance are also used in training.
10
ROLE PLAYING
It is defined as a method of human interaction that involves realistic behavior in
imaginary situations. This method of training involves action. Doing and practice. The
participants play the role of certain characters.
LECTURE METHODS
The lecture is a traditional and direct method of instruction. The instructor organizes
the material and gives it to a group of trainees in the form of a talk. To be effective, the
lecture must motivate and create interest among the trainees.
CONFERENCE
It is a method in training the clerical, professional and supervisory personnel. This
method involves a group of people who pose ideas, examine and share facts, ideas and data,
test assumptions, and draw conclusions, all of which contribute to the improvement of job
performance.
PROGRAMMED INSTRUCTION
In recent year this method has become popular. The subject matter to be learned is
presented in a series of carefully planned sequential units. These units are arranged from
simple to more complex levels of instructions.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Human resources are considered by many to be the most important asset of an
organization, yet very few employers are able to harness the full potential from their
employees (Radcliffe, 2005). Human resource is a productive resource consisting of the
talents and skills of human beings that contribute to the production of goods and services
(Kelly, 2001). Lado and Wilson (1994) define human resource system as a set of distinct but
interrelated activities, functions, and processes that are directed at attracting, developing, and
maintaining a firm’s human resources. According to Gomez-Mejia, Luis R., David B. Balkin
and Robert L. Cardy, (2008), it is the process of ensuring that the organization has the right
kind of people in the right places at the right time. The objective of Human Resources is to
maximize the return on investment from the organization’s human capital and minimize
financial risk. It is the responsibility of human resource managers to conduct these activities
in an effective, legal, fair, and consistent manner (Huselid, 1995).
Employee Training and Development
Training and development is a subsystem of an organization that emanate from two
independent yet interdependent words training and development. Training is often interpreted
as the activity when an expert and learner work together to effectively transfer information
from the expert to the learner (to enhance a learner’s knowledge, attitudes or skills) so the
learner can better perform a current task or job. Training activity is both focused upon, and
evaluated against, the job that an individual currently holds (Learner R., 1986). On the other
hand development is often viewed as a broad, ongoing multi-faceted set of activities (training
activities among them) to bring someone or an organization up to another threshold of
performance. This development often includes a wide variety of methods, e.g., orienting
about a role, training in a wide variety of areas, ongoing training on the job, coaching,
16
mentoring and forms of self-development. Some view development as a life-long goal and
experience. Development focuses upon the activities that the organization employing the
individual, or that the individual is part of, may partake in the future, and is almost
impossible to evaluate (Nadler Leonard, 1984).
Training and development ensures that randomness is reduced and learning or
behavioral change takes place in structured format. In the field of human resource
management, training and development is the field concerned with organizational activity
aimed at bettering the performance of individuals and groups in organizational settings. It has
been known by several names, including employee development, human resource
development, and learning and development (Harrison Rosemary, 2005).
As the generator of new knowledge, employee training and development is placed
within a broader strategic context of human resources management, i.e. global organizational
management, as a planned staff education and development, both individual and group, with
the goal to benefit both the organization and employees. To preserve its obtained positions
and increase competitive advantage, the organization needs to be able to create new
knowledge, and not only to rely solely on utilization of the existing (Vemic, 2007). Thus, the
continuous employee training and development has a significant role in the development of
individual and organizational performance. The strategic procedure of employee training and
development needs to encourage creativity, ensure inventiveness and shape the entire
organizational knowledge that provides the organization with uniqueness and differentiates it
from the others.
The Value of Training and Development
17
According to Beardwell& Holden (1997) human resource management has emerged
as a set of prescriptions for managing people at work. Its central claim is that by matching the
size and skills of the workforce to the productive requirements of the organization, and by
raising the quality of individual employee contributions to production, organizations can
make significant improvements on their performance.
The environment of an organization refers to the sum total of the factors or variables
that may influence the present and future survival of an organization (Armstrong, 1998). The
factors may be internal or external to the organization. Cascio W. F, (1995), uses the terms
societal environment to define the varying trends and general forces that do not relate directly
to the company but could impact indirectly on the company at some point in time. Four of
these forces are identified as economic, technological, legal and political and socio-cultural
and demographic forces. The second type of environment is the task environment that
comprises elements directly influencing the operations and strategy of the organization.
These may include the labour market, trade unions, competition and product markets
comprising customers, suppliers and creditors. The task environment elements are directly
linked to the company and are influenced by the societal environment.
However, variables in the task, competitive or operative environment as they are
variously referred to, affect organizations in a specific industry and it is possible to control
them to some extent. As such, environmental change, whether remote or task, disrupts the
equilibrium that exists between the organization’s strategy and structure, necessitating
adjustment to change. Pfeffer (1998) proposes that there is evidence demonstrating that
effectively managed people can produce substantially enhanced economic performance.
Pfeffer extracted from various studies, related literature, and personal observation and
experience a set of seven dimensions that seem to characterize most if not all of the systems
18
producing profits through people. He named them the seven practices of successful
organizations and they are: employment security, selective hiring of new personnel, self-
managed teams and decentralization of decision making as the basic principles of
organizational design, comparatively high compensation contingent on organizational
performance, extensive training, reduced status distinctions and barriers, including dress,
language, office arrangements, and wage differences across levels, and extensive sharing of
financial and performance information throughout the organization.
Effect of Training and Development on Employee Productivity
McGhee (1997) stated that an organization should commit its resources to a training
activity only if, in the best judgment of managers, the training can be expected to achieve
some results other than modifying employee behaviour. It must support some organizational
goals, such as more efficient production or distribution of goods and services, product
operating costs, improved quality or more efficient personal relations is the modification of
employees behaviour affected through training should be aimed at supporting organization
objectives.
Effect of Training and Development on Employee Motivation
Motivation is concerned with the factors that influence people to behave in certain
ways. Arnold etal (1991), have listed the components as being, direction-what a person is
trying to do, effort- how hard a person is trying to and persistence- how long a person keeps
on trying. Motivating other people is about getting them to move in the direction you want
them to go in order to achieve a result, well motivated people are those with clearly defined
goals who take action that they expect will achieve those goals. Motivation at work can take
place in two ways. First, people can motivate themselves by seeking, finding and carrying out
19
that which satisfies their needs or at least leads them to expect that their goals will be
achieved. Secondly, management can motivate people through such methods as pay,
promotion, praise and training (Synderman 1957). The organization as a whole can provide
the context within which high levels of motivation can be achieved training the employees in
areas of their job performance.
Effect of Training and Development on Competitive Advantage
Competitive advantage is the essence of competitive strategy. It encompasses those
capabilities, resources, relationships, and decisions, which permits an organization to
capitalize on opportunities in the marketplace and to avoid threats to its desired position,
(Lengnick-Hall 1990). Boxall and Purcell (1992) suggest that ‘human resource advantage can
be traced to better people employed in organizations with better processes.’ This echoes the
resource based view of the firm, which states that ‘distinctive human resource practices help
to create the unique competences that determine how firms compete’ (Capelli and Crocker-
Hefter, 1996). Intellectual capital is the source of competitive advantage for organizations.
The challenge is to ensure that firms have the ability to find, assimilate, compensate, and
retain human capital in shape of talented individual who can drive a global organization that
both responsive to its customer and ‘the burgeoning opportunities of technology’ (Armstrong,
2005)
Effect of Training and Development on Customer Relations
William Edward Deming, one of the quality Gurus defines quality as a predictable
degree of uniformity and dependability at low costs and suitable to the market, he advises that
an organization should focus on the improvement of the process as the system rather than the
work is the cause of production variation (Gale 1994). Many service organizations have
20
embraced this approach of quality assurance by checking on the systems and processes used
to deliver the end product to the consumer. Essentially this checks on; pre-sale activities
which encompass the advice and guidance given to a prospective client, customer
communications ( how well the customers are informed of the products and services, whether
there are any consultancy services provided to help the customers assess their needs and any
help line available for ease of access to information on products), the speed of handling a
client’s transactions and processing of claims, the speed of handling customers calls and the
number of calls abandoned or not answered, on the selling point of Products/Services a
customer would be interested to know about the opening hours of the organization, the
convenience of the location and such issues (Gale 1994). This is only possible when
employees are well trained and developed to ensure sustainability of the same.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
RESEARCH – MEANING
24
Research is an art of scientific investigation. According to Redmen and Mary defines research
as a “systematic effort to gain knowledge”.
Research methodology is way to systematically solve the research problem. It is a plan of
action for a research project and explains in detail how data are collected and analyzed. This research
study is a descriptive research study.
RESEARCH DESIGN
A research design is a plan that specifies the objectives of the study, method to be adopted in
the data collection, tools in data analysis and hypothesis to be framed.
“A research design is an arrangement of condition for collection and analysis of data in a
manner that aims to combine relevance to research purpose with economy in procedure”.
NATURE OF DATA
Primary data
The primary data are collected from the employees of Rane Brake Lining Ltd., through a
direct structured questionnaire.
Secondary data
Company profiles, Company registers, websites, magazines, articles were used widely as a
support to primary data.
SAMPLING SIZE AND TECHNIQUE
Size of the sample
It refers to the number of items to be selected from the universe to constitute as a sample. In
these study 100 employees of Rane Brake Lining Ltd., was selected as size of sample.
25
Sample design
The sampling technique used in this study is simple random sampling method. This method
is also called as the method of chance selection. Each and every item of population has equal chance
to be included in the sample.
Questionnaire
The questions are arranged logical sequence. The questionnaire consists of a variety of
questions presented to the employees for the response. Dichotomous questions, multiple choice
questions, rating scale questions were used in constructing questionnaire.
STATISTICAL TOOLS USED
To analyze and interpret collected data the following statistical tools were used.
Percentage method
Chi-square analysis
Percentage method:
The percentage is used for making comparison between two or more series of data. It
can be generally calculated as
No. of respondents favorable
Percentage of respondent = x 100
Total no of respondents
Chi-square analysis:
Chi-square analysis in statistics is to test the goodness of fit to verify the distribution of
observed data with assumed theoretical distribution. Therefore it is a measure to study the divergence
of actual and expected frequencies.
26
The formula for computing chi-square is as follows.
The calculated value of chi-square is compared with the table of chi-square for the
given degrees of freedom at the specified level of significance. If the calculated value is greater than
the tabulated value then the difference between the observed frequency and the expected frequency
are significant. the degrees of freedom is (n-2) where ‘n’ is number of observed frequencies and in
case of contingency table the degrees of freedom is (C-1) (R-1) where C is number of columns and R
is number of rows.

program gets completed.
Individual attention may be provided to the trainees in order to encourage their
participation and make them perform better at their job.

CONCLUSION
Training programme’s main objective is to improve the productivity of the company’s
employees which in turn will improve the company’s profitability. Through training
programmes, the employees’ skill levels are upgraded which will make the employees more
productive.
Training programme is also set up to help employees get used with new roles and
responsibilities usually after promotion. When an employee gets promoted from one level to
next level, the skills required to do his/her job changes and training programmes are essential
in equipping the employee with the new skills.
Training programme is also a way for the company to showcase to its employees that it
cares for employees’ self development. This plays a vital role in increasing the loyalty that an
employee feels towards its organization
Employees’ feedback on the training programme is essential to understand the
effectiveness of training programme. Most times, employees better understand the kind of
training programme that would help them. It is important to get employees’ opinion before
the creation of new training programmes.
It has been discovered from the research in Rane Brake Lining Ltd most of the
employees are satisfied with training programme which is being conducted by the company.
