Executive Summary

The importance of personnel management is being increasingly realized in industrial and

nonindustrial organization both in India and abroad. The realization has come about because of

increasing complexity of the task of managers and administrators. In most organizations the

problems of getting the competent and relevant people, retaining them, keeping up their

motivation and morale, and helping them to both continuously grow and contribute their best to

the organizations, are now viewed as the most critical problems.

So with this reference the project titled Study of Study of both HR & IR practices has been

conducted, based on the primary research in MRK Sugar Mills, HR Policies prepared by the HR

department in organization. It emphasizes on the importance of a clear cut organization structure

and culture to avoid any confusion in order to achieve maximum result with minimum resources.

The project is aimed to cover maximum knowledge of the HR & IR practices followed in the

organization and how the performance is evaluated of employees, what primary factors are

considered , how data is maintained and finally the evaluation done. Here the HR practices of the

company have been explained to understand how the company follows these practices and the

performance appraisal process adopted. The practical knowledge has been gained mainly by

observing all the activities taking place in the H.R. department. This is a brief study done to have

understanding of the subject H.R., how it is practically implemented, why it is necessary, its

implications & the benefits. With reference to the HR Practices brief knowledge has been gained

how the Recruitment cycle functions, Selection done, Training Calendar prepared, what does

compensation & cost to company means and the steps of performance appraisal

INTRODUCTION:

HR PRACTICES The success of any business depends as much on appropriate, effective,

well-communicated, HR and business practices as it depends on meeting the requirements of

mandated laws and regulations. In fact, good planning and the development of effective practices

make regulatory compliance much easier. HR practices helps in increasing the productivity and

quality, and to gain the competitive advantage of a workforce strategically aligned with the

organization’s goals and objectives.

KPI's For HR PRACTICES Some of the key performance indicators for Human

Resources include but are not limited to the following.

Employees’ clarity on HR policies

Employees’ clarity on roles, responsibilities and expectations

Development of qualitative staff

Number of HR issues arising for which there are no clear policies and guidelines

Competitiveness of compensation structure relative to industry benchmark

Usefulness and accuracy of compensation survey

Lead time to respond to staff welfare issues

Employees’ assessment of promotion criteria and process (clarity, fairness)

Measurement of HR policy violation

Average time required to fill vacancies

Proportion of training programs resulting in productivity improvement

Staff attrition rate

Understanding / Clarity of the Organizational philosophy

Outline Internal capabilities and identify gaps on skills-competencies-behavioral aspects.

Employers are realizing that the success of an organization relies on more than hiring

qualified candidates. Effective human resource (HR) planning and management is required at all

stages of an employee’s corporate lifecycle to help ensure employee growth and satisfaction.

Employee satisfaction is vital to the success of an organization because of its direct impact on

productivity. When employees are satisfied, they are more likely to produce high quality work,

optimize performance, and exercise more critical thought and creativity. This combination of

high satisfaction and maximum productivity amounts to employee engagement.

Page 5: hr and ir practices in MRK sugar mills

Raw Materials

S.No. Raw Material Quantity

1. Cane Molasses 196 MT/Day 2. D.A.P. / Urea 45 Kg/ Day 3. Antifoam Oil 90 kg/Day 4. Sulphuric Acid 67.5 Kg/day

Manufacturing Process:

Molasses is diluted with process water and calculated quantity of yeast isadded. Air is

passed through the above diluted molasses with the first two fermentors and CO2 is passed in the

balance three fermentors. The enzymes produced during the yeast metabolism converts the

fermentable sugars present in the molasses to ethyl alcohol and Carbon di-oxide gas. The

fermented liquid containing ethyl alcohol is distilled in the series of distillationcolumn to

produce industrial alcohol (Rectified sprit), Extra neutral alcohol and anhydrous Alcohol.

Molasses with process water in constant proportion is continuously fed to the 1st three

fermentors, air is passed in the 1st two fermentors. The Carbon dioxide gas generated in the 1st 2

fermentors is passed into balance three fermentors. The diluted molasses flows from 1st

fermentor to 5th fermentors. During this flow the ethyl alcohol is produced by the action of

enzymes in the yeast as fermented liquid. The fermented liquid is settled in the settling tanks and

the clear liquid is taken to the distillation column for ethyl alcohol distillation.

Rectified spirit:

The fermented liquid is fed at the top of the distillation column and at the bottom steam is

passed. The generated alcohol vapours are concentrated in the distillation column and cooled in

the condensers to get Industrial alcohol (Rectified spirit) which contains 95% of ethyl alcohol.

Page 6: hr and ir practices in MRK sugar mills

Anhydrous Alcohol:

The Anhydrous Alcohol is manufactured from Industrial alcohol (Rectifiedspirit) by

Molecular Sieve System. The Industrial alcohol is vaporized in the evaporation column and fed

into the molecular Sieves where the water vapour gets absorbed and the pure Alcohol vapour is

collected and cooled to get Anhydrous Alcohol.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

Michael Muller 1998,Most of the research about HRM and IR practices of MNCs in

their host country has been conducted in deregulated countries such as the UK and the US. Host

countries with relatively weak institutional arrangements facilitate the transfer of home-country

practices. In contrast, those with institutionally strong systems, such as Germany, impose

stronger pressures for adaptation. This paper reports research about nine US and four UK

subsidiaries operating in Germany. It examines how their HRM and IR practices are shaped by

German labour and IR institutions, how they differ from a control group of indigenous firms and

what room for manoeuvre is left for the introduction of home-country practices. The main

conclusions are that small and medium-sized subsidiaries in particular can to some extent avoid

the pressures exerted by German labour and IR institutions. This facilitates the transfer of home-

country practices. However, even larger affiliates that comply with the German institutions can

transfer practices from their parent company. The highly regulated German system leaves some

room for flexibility. Nevertheless, the institutional environment prevents large companies from

following a unitarist HRM and IR approach.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HR PRACTICES AND FIRM

PERFORMANCE: EXAMINING CAUSAL ORDER PATRICK M. WRIGHT,TIMOTHY

M. GARDNER, LISA M. MOYNIHAN,MATHEW R. ALLEN (2005), Significant research

attention has been devoted to examining the relationship between HR practices and firm

performance, and research support has assumed HR as the causal variable.

Using data from 45 business units (with 62 data points), this study examines how

measures of HR practices correlate with past, concurrent, and future operational performance

measures. The results indicate that correlations with performance measures at all 3 times are both

high and invariant, and that controlling for past or concurrent performance virtually eliminates

the correlation of HR practices with future performance. Implications are discussed.

The impact of HR practices on the performance of business units,Patrick M.

Wright, Timothy M. Gardner, Lisa M. Moynihan. (2006), This article examines the impact of

HR practices and organisational commitment on the operating performance and profitability of

business units. Using a predictive design with a sample of 50 autonomous business units within

the same corporation, the article reveals that both organisational commitment and HR practices

are significantly related to operational measures of performance, as well as operating expenses

and pre-tax profits.

Moving HR to a higher level: HR practices and organizational effectiveness. Ostroff,

Cheri; Bowen, David E. Klein, Katherine J. (Ed); Kozlowski, Steve W. J. (Ed),

(2000).Integrates the 3 primary streams of research—individual-level, organization-level, and

cross- or multilevel approaches—into a cohesive multilevel framework. The chapter also

proposes a meso paradigm for understanding linkages between human resource (HR) practices

and firm performance. The authors adopt the perspective that HR practices shape the skills,

attitudes, and behaviors of an organization's workforce, and these skills, attitudes, and behaviors

in turn influence organizational behavior and that HR practices can have a direct impact on firm

performance by creating structural and operational efficiencies.

Further, the authors adopt a multidimensional view whereby there are multiple

configurations of HR practices that drive climates and contracts, multiple climates and contracts

that guide the behavior and attitudes of the workforce, and multiple dimensions of firm

performance and effectiveness.

Definition:

As outlined above, the process of defining HRM leads us to two different definitions. The

first definition of HRM is that it is the process of managing people in organizations in a

structured and thorough manner. This covers the fields of staffing (hiring people), retention of

people, pay and perks setting and management, performance management, change management

and taking care of exits from the company to round off the activities. This is the traditional

definition of HRM which leads some experts to define it as a modern version of the Personnel

Management function that was used earlier.

Page 10: hr and ir practices in MRK sugar mills

The second definition of HRM encompasses the management of people in organizations

from a macro perspective i.e. managing people in the form of a collective relationship between

management and employees. This approach focuses on the objectives and outcomes of the HRM

function. What this means is that the HR function in contemporary organizations is concerned

with the notions of people enabling, people development and a focus on making the

“employment relationship” fulfilling for both the management and employees.

These definitions emphasize the difference between Personnel Management as defined in

the second paragraph and human resource management as described in the third paragraph. To

put it in one sentence, personnel management is essentially “workforce” centered whereas

human resource management is “resource” centered. The key difference is HRM in recent times

is about fulfilling management objectives of providing and deploying people and a greater

emphasis on planning, monitoring and control.

Page 11: hr and ir practices in MRK sugar mills

HR practices:

The role of Human Resources is changing as fast as technology and the global

marketplace. Historically, the HR Department was viewed as administration, kept personal files

and other records, managed the hiring process, and provided other administrative support to the

business. Those times have changed.

The positive result of these changes is that HR professionals have the opportunity to play

a more strategic role in the business. The challenge for HR managers is to keep up to date with

the latest HR innovations-technological, legal, and otherwise.

This special report will discuss the best practices in HR management for 2012-in other

words, how HR managers can anticipate and address some of the most challenging HR issues

this year. This report will give you the information you need to know about these current HR

challenges and how to most effectively manage them in your workplace.

Human resources is an increasingly broadening term with which an organization, or other

human system describes the combination of traditionally administrative personnel functions with

acquisition and application of skills, knowledge and experience, Employee Relations and

resource planning at various levels.

The field draws upon concepts developed in Industrial/Organizational Psychology and

System Theory. Human resources has at least two related interpretations depending on context.

Page 12: hr and ir practices in MRK sugar mills

The original usage derives from political economy and economics, where it was

traditionally called labor, one of four factors of production although this perspective is changing

as a function of new and ongoing research into more strategic approaches at national levels. This

first usage is used more in terms of `human resources development', and can go beyond just

organizations to the level of nations. The more traditional usage within corporations and

businesses refers to the individuals within a firm or agency, and to the portion of the organization

that deals with hiring, firing, training, and other personnel issues, typically referred to as `human

resources management'. This article addresses both definitions.

The objective of human resource's' development (the `s' is important in human resource`s'

in that it underscores indiduality/variability) is to foster human resourcefulness through

enlightened and cohesive policies in education, training, health and employment at all levels,

from corporate to national (Lawrence 2000) Human resource management's objective, on the

other hand, 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 in a corporate

context to conduct these activities in an effective, legal, fair, and consistent manner

Page 13: hr and ir practices in MRK sugar mills

Human resource management serves these key functions:

Recruitment & Selection

Training and Development

Performance Evaluation and Management

Promotions

Redundancy

Industrial and Employee Relations

Record keeping of all personal data.

Compensation, pensions, bonuses etc in liaison with Payroll

Confidential advice to internal 'customers' in relation to problems at work

Career development

Modern analysis emphasizes that human beings are not "commodities" or "resources",

but are creative and social beings in a productive enterprise. The 2000 revision of ISO 9001 in

contrast requires to identify the processes, their sequence and interaction, and to define and

communicate responsibilities and authorities. In general, heavily unionized nations such as

France and Germany have adopted and encouraged such job descriptions especially within trade

unions. The International Labour Organization also in 2001 decided to revisit, and revise its 1975

Recommendation 150 on Human Resources Development.

Page 14: hr and ir practices in MRK sugar mills

One view of these trends is that a strong social consensus on political economy and a

good social welfare system facilitates labor mobility and tends to make the entire economy more

productive, as labor can develop skills and experience in various ways, and move from one

enterprise to another with little controversy or difficulty in adapting. Another view is that

governments should become more aware of their national role in facilitating human resources

development across all sectors.

IR practices:

Industrial relations has become one of the most delicate and complex problems of

modern industrial society. Industrial progress is impossible without cooperation of labors and

harmonious relationships. Therefore, it is in the interest of all to create and maintain good

relations between employees (labor) and employers (management).

The term ‘Industrial Relations’ comprises of two terms: ‘Industry’ and ‘Relations’.

“Industry” refers to “any productive activity in which an individual (or a group of individuals) is

(are) engaged”. By “relations” we mean “the relationships that exist within the industry between

the employer and his workmen.” The term industrial relations explains the relationship between

employees and management which stem directly or indirectly from union-employer relationship.

Industrial relations are the relationships between employees and employers within the

organizational settings. The field of industrial relations looks at the relationship between

management and workers, particularly groups of workers represented by a union. Industrial

relations are basically the interactions between employers, employees and the government, and

the institutions and associations through which such interactions are mediated.

Page 15: hr and ir practices in MRK sugar mills

The term industrial relations has a broad as well as a narrow outlook. Originally,

industrial relations was broadly defined to include the relationships and interactions between

employers and employees. From this perspective, industrial relations covers all aspects of the

employment relationship, including human resource management, employee relations, and

union-management (or labor) relations.

Now its meaning has become more specific and restricted. Accordingly, industrial

relations pertains to the study and practice of collective bargaining, trade unionism, and labor-

management relations, while human resource management is a separate, largely distinct field that

deals with nonunion employment relationships and the personnel practices and policies of

employers.

The relationships which arise at and out of the workplace generally include the

relationships between individual workers, the relationships between workers and their employer,

the relationships between employers, the relationships employers and workers have with the

organizations formed to promote their respective interests, and the relations between those

organizations, at all levels.

Industrial relations also includes the processes through which these relationships are

expressed (such as, collective bargaining, workers’ participation in decision-making, and

grievance and dispute settlement), and the management of conflict between employers, workers

and trade unions, when it arises.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Research:

Research is a process in which the researcher wishes to find out the end result for a given

problem and thus the solution helps in future course of action. The research has been defined as

“A careful investigation or enquiry especially through search for new facts in any branch of

knowledge.

Research Methodology:

The procedure using, which researchers go about their work of describing, explaining and

predicting phenomena, is called Methodology. Methods compromise the procedures used for

generating, collecting and evaluating data. Methods are the ways of obtaining information useful

for assessing explanations.

Research Design:

Research design is the specification of the method and procedure for acquiring the

information needed to solve the problem.

The research design followed for this research study is descriptive research design where

we find a solution to an existing problem. The problem of the study is to find out the “HR & IR

practices in NLC”.

Page 18: hr and ir practices in MRK sugar mills

Type of Research:

The type of research used in this project is descriptive in nature. Descriptive research is

essentially a fact-finding related largely to the present, abstracting generations by cross sectional

study of the current situation. The descriptive methods are extensively used in the physical and

natural science, for instance when physics measure, biology classifies, zoology dissects and

geology studies the rocks. But its use in social science is more common, as in socio economic

surveys and job and activity analysis.

Descriptive research aims at,

1 To portray the characteristics of a particular individual situation, or group (with or

without specific initial hypothesis about the nature of these characteristics).

2 To determine the frequency with which something occurs or with which it is associated

with something else (usually, but not always, with a specific initial hypothesis).

Data Collection Method:

Survey method is considered the best method for data collection of data and the tools

used for data collection are Questionnaire. This method is quite popular particularly in case of

big enquires. Private individuals, research works, private and public organizations and even

government are adopting it.

Page 19: hr and ir practices in MRK sugar mills

In this method a questionnaire is sent to the persons concerned with a request to answer

and return the questionnaire. A questionnaire consists of a number of question involves both

specific and general questions relating to HR & IR practices.

Sources of Data:

The two sources of data collection are namely Primary & Secondary.

Primary Data:

Primary data are fresh data collected through survey from the employees using the

questionnaire. Questionnaire helps to recognize the employee’s perception regarding the HR &

IR practices and their problematic areas.

Secondary Data:

Secondary data are collected from the past records & books and various journals,

magazines etc. regarding the HR & IR practices and there impacts .

Period of the Study:

The period of the study is done for xxx weeks.

Statistical tools used:

Percentage method

Chi-square test

PERCENTAGE METHOD

In this project Percentage method test was used. The percentage method is used to know

the accurate percentages of the data we took, it is easy to graph out through the percentages. The

following are the formula

No of Respondent Percentage of Respondent = x 100 Total no. of Respondents

From the above formula, we can get percentages of the data given by the respondents.

Page 20: hr and ir practices in MRK sugar mills

CHI-SQUARE ANALYSIS

In this project chi-square test was used. This is an analysis of technique which analyzed the

stated data in the project. It analysis the assumed data and calculated in the study. The Chi-

square test is an important test amongst the several tests of significant developed by statistical.

Chi-square, symbolically written as x2 (Pronounce as Ki-Spare), is a statistical measure used in

the context of sampling analysis for comparing a variance to a theoretical variance.
