EMPLYEE WELFARE
EMPLOYEE WELFARE
INTRODUCTION:
After labours / employees have been hired, trained and remunerated, they need to be
trained and maintained to serve the organization better. Welfare facilities are designed to
ix
take care of the well- being of the employees – they do not generally result in any
monetary benefits to the employees. Nor are these facilities provided by employers alone.
Government and non- government agencies and trade union too, contribute towards
employees welfare.
*Meaning & Definition.
Welfare means faring or doing well. It is a comprehensive term and refers to the physical,
mental, moral, and emotional well-being of an individual. Labour welfare also referred to
as betterment work for employees, related to taking care of the well being of workers by
employers, trade union and govt. and non-government agencies.
‘Labour welfare has two aspects- negative and positive. On the negative side,
labour welfare is concerned with counteracting the baneful effects of the large-scale
industrial system of production – especially capitalistic, so far as India is concerned – on
the personal / family, and social life of the workers.
On the positive side, it deals with the provision of opportunities for the worker and his/her
family fir a good life as understood in its most comprehensive sense.’
Employee welfare defines as “efforts to make life worth living for workmen”.
These efforts have their origin either in some statute formed by the state or in some local
custom or in collective agreement or in the employer’s own initiative.
To give expression to philanthropic and paternalistic feelings.
To win over employee’s loyalty and increase their morale.
To combat trade unionism and socialist ideas.
To build up stable labour force, to reduce labour turnover and absenteeism.
To develop efficiency and productivity among workers.
To save oneself from heavy taxes on surplus profits.
To earn goodwill and enhance public image.
To reduce the threat of further government intervention.
To make recruitment re effective (because these benefits add to job appeal).
x
Employee welfare means “the efforts to make life worth living for workmen.” According
to Todd “employee welfare means anything done for the comfort and improvement,
intellectual or social, of the employees over and above the wages paid which is not a
necessity of the industry.”
In India, welfare is of the statutory and the non statutory kinds. Though statutory welfare
ensures the minimum of facilities and reasonably good working condition, employers are
free to provide, non statutory welfare. However, practically all organizations in India
provide non statutory measure in varying degrees.
Why is such organization involved in extensive welfare measures? These questions can
be viewed from the point of view of workers, the unions, and the employers. From the
point of view of workers, welfare measures must eliminate risk and insecurity. This is to
ensure their personal safety and provide them with equipment and atmosphere needed to
draw a fair day’s wage without any feeling of guilt. Given workers economics constraints,
probably due to large families, organizations should provide facilities such as transport,
medical aid, crèches, and subsidized food required by the workers.
Employee welfare also referred to as betterment work for employees relates to taking care
of the wellbeing of workers by employers , trade unions and governmental and non
governmental agencies. It is rather difficult to define the term employee welfare precisely
because of the relatively of the concept.
Labour welfare is a term which must necessarily must be elastic ,bearing a somewhat
different interpretation in one country according to the different social customs the degree
of industrialization and educational level of the workers.
Employee welfare has two aspects-negative and positive. On the negative side employee
welfare is concerned with counteracting the benaful effects of the large scale industrial
productions

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
INTRODUCTION
Research is a term stand for “A careful investigation or enquiry especially through search
for new fact in any branch of knowledge”.
Research Methodology is way to systematically solve the research problem. In it we study
the various steps that are generally adopted by a researcher in studying his research
problem along with logic behind them .We also need to understand the assumption
underlying various techniques and procedures will be applicable to certain problems and
other will not. So it is necessary for us to design methodology for the problem as it differs
from problem. So research methodology is not only method research but also logic behind
the methods we use in context of our research study and explain why we are using a
xxiv
particular method or technique and why we are not using others so that research results are
capable of being evaluated.
Marketing research is the systematic design, collection, analysis and reporting of data and
findings relevant to specific marketing situation facing the company. An effective
marketing research involves following five steps in a sequential manner.
Defining the research objective
Developing research plan
Collecting the information
Analyze the information
Present the findings
1. DEFINING RESEARCH OBJECTIVE
Objective is the main theme of in which is my job is based. Research is a good planning of
facilities and welfare measure of procedure to compete in the market. The objective of the
project should be very precise; it should neither be very broad nor be very narrow.
For this research I defined the following objective:-
To study the satisfaction level of employees with respect to their welfare in NTPC
Singrauli and to suggest measures to strengthen this regime.
What are things still to be satisfy facilities to the employees of NTPC?
DEVELOPING RESEARCH PLAN
The research plan is the main body or you can call the blue print in which we carry the
research. The research plans consist of data sources, research approaches, research
instruments, sampling plan and contact methods.
1. DATA SOURCES:-
a. Primary Data:-
Primary data are the data gathered for the specific research project and are directly
taken from the very source of information.
xxv
I. Personal Interview with the Employees of NTPC
II. Responses of Employees through Questionnaire.
b. Secondary Data:-
Secondary data are the data, which already exists and were collected for some other
purpose or for similar previous studies. Secondary data were proved to be
instrumental in structuring the questions to be asked for collecting primary data.
I. Various books on Human resources.
II. Website of NTPC, www.ntpc.co.in
III. NTPC document and magazines.
IV. Journals
.
2. RESEARCH APPROACH:-
Primary data can be collected in several different ways these methods of collecting
primary data are called research approaches. Research approaches are of following types:-
Observational research
Focus group research
Survey research
Experimental research.
Behavioral data research
For this project the survey research method was adopted, and a survey was conducted in
which employees were interviewed to know how far employees are satisfied of NTPC.
3. RESEARCH INSTRUMENT:
The two main research instruments in collecting primary data are:
A. personnel Interview
B. Questionnaire
A) Personnel Interview:
It is one of the important sources to collect primary data. Through personnel interview
interviewer can ask question according to research requirement. Data which is collect by
personnel interview is more reliable than other sources.
xxvi
StronglyAgree (5)
Agree (4) Undecided (3)
Disagree (2)
Strongly disagree (1) (1)
B) Questionnaire:
Questionnaires consist of a set of questions presented to the respondent for their answer.
Because of its flexibility the questionnaire is by far the most common instrument used to
gather primary data. Questionnaire needs to be carefully developed and tested before they
are actually used on a large scale.
QUESTIONNAIRES ARE OF TWO TYPES:
a) Open ended questionnaire
It consists of open ended questions that allow the respondent to answer in their
own words. Such questionnaires revel more because they do not constraint respondent's
answers.
b) Closed ended questionnaire
This questionnaire consists of questions that pre-specified all the possible answers,
tabulation and interpretation of such Questionnaires are easier as compare to open ended
questionnaire.
Scale: 5- point scale.
Sampling: Simple random sampling the one which ensures elimination of bias &
estimation of sampling errors. Here we have used summated (or likert- type scale) which
consists of a number of statements that expresses either a favorable or an unfavorable
attitude towards the given object to which the respondent is asked to react. The respondent
indicates his agreement or disagreement with each statement in the instrument. Each
response is given a numerical score, indicating its favorableness or unfavourableness, and
the score is totaled to measure the respondent’s attitude. In other words, the overall score
represents the respondent’s position on the continuum of favorable-unfavourableness
towards an issue.
xxvii
4. SAMPLING PLAN
After deciding on research and research instrument the researcher must design a sampling
plan. This plan calls for three decisions.
a) Sample population
It is segment to Executive class and Non-executive class employees of NTPC.
b) Sampling frame
Since the manpower of NTPC Singrauli is 1600(approx) of different grades, so the
sample frame is obtained accordingly.
c) Sampling unit
The sample unit consists of all Executives and Non Executives of NTPC Singrauli.
d) Sample size
Large sample gives more reliable results than small samples. However it is not
necessary to sample the entire population or even a substantial portion to achieve
reliable result. After considering time constraint and cost effectiveness for the
project total 60 peoples are surveyed.
Place of Information:- NTPC Singrauli
.
SCOPE OF THE STUDY:
The present study on “Employee Welfare” has been conducted in ‘Singrauli Super
Thermal Power Project’ of ‘National Thermal Power Corporation Ltd.’. The work is
limited to the study of the scheme of “Employee Welfare” in achieving its desired
objectives in the project. Relevant data have been collected and analyzed and then broad
generalizations were made. The conclusions are based on the arguments that have been
xxviii
derived from analysis of such data and the aim has been to consider the scheme in all its
essential manifestations.
To conduct any research adoption of a scientific method is a prerequisite. In
practice it is difficult to collect information from all the employees. So, the sample of
respondents was decided through stratified – random sampling. The sample size of 60
proportionately represents the different categories of employees viz. Executives,
supervisors, workmen etc.
*LIMITATIONS*
Even though NTPC Singrauli is doing a great work in today’s competitive world in the
public sector and holding its position in companies ranking; than also I personally found
some of the limitations while completing my training and project report from this
organization.
The busy schedule of concerned executives who were guiding us in the making of
the project.
xxix
Some of the times it was not very easy for me to get the exact and accurate
material for my project report.

ASH Utilization
Ash utilization is one of the key concerns at NTPC. The Ash Utilization Division, set up
in 1991, strives to derive maximum usage from
the vast quantities of ash produced at its coal-
based stations. The division proactively
formulates policy, plans and programme for ash
utilization. It further monitors the progress in
these areas and works at developing new fields of
ash utilization.
The quality of ash produced conforms to the requirements of IS 3812. The fly ash
generated at NTPC stations is ideal for use in cement, concrete, concrete products, cellular
concrete, lightweight aggregates, bricks/blocks/tiles etc. This is attributed to its very low
loss on ignition value. To facilitate availability of dry ash to end-users all new units of
NTPC are provided with the facility of dry ash collection system. Partial dry ash collection
lii
systems have also been set up at the existing stations where these facilities did not exist
earlier. Augmentation of these systems to 100% capacity is presently in progress.
As the emphasis on gainful utilization of ash grew, the usage over the years also increased.
From 0.3 million tonnes in 1991-1992, the level of utilization during 2006-07 stood at
over 20.76 million tonnes.
The various channels of ash utilization currently include use by a number of Cement,
Asbestos-Cement products & Concrete manufacturing Industries, Land Development,
Roads & Embankments, Ash Dyke Raising, and Building Products. Area wise break-up of
utilization for the year 2008-09 is as under:
Area of Utilization Quantity (in Million Tons)
Land Development 7.51
Cement & Concrete 7.40
Roads/Embankments 1.76
Ash Dyke Raising 2.69
Bricks 0.15
Mine Filling 0.61
Others 0.64
Total 20.76
NTPC has adopted user friendly policy guidelines on ash utilization. These include actions
identified for:
liii
i) Ash Collection & Storage System
ii) Facilities & Incentives to users
iii) Direct Department Activities
iv) Administrative & Financial aspects.
In order to motivate entrepreneurs to come forward with ash utilization schemes, NTPC
offers several facilities and incentives. These include free issue of all types of ash viz. Dry
Fly Ash / Pond Ash / Bottom Ash & infrastructure facilities, wherever feasible. Necessary
help and assistance is also offered to facilitate procurement of land, supply of electricity
etc. from Govt. Authorities. Necessary techno-managerial assistance is given wherever
considered necessary. Besides NTPC uses only ash based bricks & Portland pozzolana
cement (FAPPC) in most of its construction activities. FAPPC (as per IS 1489 Part-1) and
Fly Ash Bricks (as per IS 12894) have been included in our standard specifications.
Demonstration projects are taken up in area of Agriculture, Building materials, mine
filling etc.
MAJOR INITIATIVES TAKEN BY NTPC TOWARDS ASH UTILIZATION
NTPC continually strives to evolve innovative and diverse means of ash utilization to
further broaden the scope. Prominent among the methods devised so far are:
Dry Flyash Extraction Systems
Use in cement & concrete
Use in Ash based products including setting up of
'Ash Technology Park'
Land Development/Wasteland Development, Roads & Embankments, Raising
ash dykes'
Mine filling / Stowing

Community Development
NTPC has been a committed and socially responsible corporate citizen since its inception
and formulated specific guidelines for the welfare of Project Affected persons (PAPs) and
community development in the neighborhood villages around its power stations as early as
1980s. It is one of the first in the corporate sector to formulate comprehensive resettlement
and rehabilitation policy for addressing the issue of PAPs.
The concept of Corporate Social Responsibility is deeply ingrained in NTPC.s culture.
NTPC’s mission in the area of CSR is to “Be a socially responsible corporate entity
with thrust on environment protection, ash utilization, community development, and
energy conservation”.
NTPC’s approach towards CSR, further articulated in the corporate objectives on
sustainable power development is as follows
“To contribute to
sustainable power development by discharging corporate social
responsibilities.
lead the sector in the areas of resettlement and rehabilitation and
environment protection including effective ash-utilization, peripheral
development and energy conservation practices.”
NTPC’s fresh impetus on Community Development is reflected through formulation of
CSR-CD Policy, July 04, establishing NTPC foundation as a trust and initiating scheme
for economic self reliance of physically challenged persons (PCP).

Harmony between man and environment is the
essence of healthy life and growth. Therefore,
maintenance of ecological balance and a
pristine environment has been of utmost
importance to NTPC. It has been taking
various measures discussed below for
mitigation of environment pollution due to
power generation.
Environment policy & Environment Management system
Driven by its commitment for sustainable growth of power, NTPC has evolved a well
defined environment management policy and sound environment practices for minimising
environmental impact arising out of setting up of power plants and preserving the natural
ecology.
National Environment Policy:
At the national level, the Ministry of Environment and
Forests had prepared a draft Environment Policy (NEP) and
the Ministry of Power along with NTPC actively
participated in the deliberations of the draft NEP. The NEP
2006 has since been approved by the Union Cabinet in May 2006.
NTPC Environment Policy:
While leading the nation’s power generation league, NTPC has remained committed to the environment. It continues to take various pro- active measures for protection of the environment and ecology around its project.
lviii
NTPC is the first among the power utilities in India to start Environment Impact Assessment {EIA} studies and reinforce it with Periodic Environment Audits and Reviews.
*Environment Policy and Management. For NTPC, the journey extends much beyond generating power. Right from inception, the company had a well defined environment policy.
*Ash Utilization Ash utilization is one of the key concerns at NTPC. The Ash Utilization Division set up in1991.
*Afforestation Maintenance of ecological balance and a perfect environment has been of utmost importance at NTPC.
As early as in November 1995, NTPC brought out a comprehensive document entitled
"NTPC Environment Policy and Environment Management System". Amongst the
guiding principles adopted in the document are company's proactive approach to
environment, optimum utilisation of equipment, adoption of latest technologies and
continual environment improvement. The policy also envisages efficient utilisation of
resources, thereby minimising waste, maximising ash utilisation and providing green belt
all around the plant for maintaining ecological balance.
Environment Management, Occupational Health and Safety Systems:
NTPC has actively gone for adoption of best international practices on environment,
occupational health and safety areas. The organization has pursued the Environmental
Management System (EMS) ISO 14001 and the Occupational Health and Safety
Assessment System OHSAS 18001 at its different establishments. As a result of pursuing
these practices, all NTPC power stations have been certified for ISO 14001 & OHSAS
18001 by reputed national and international Certifying Agencies.
Pollution Control System
lix
While deciding the appropriate technology for its projects, NTPC integrates many
environmental provisions into the plant design. In order to ensure that NTPC comply with
all the stipulated environment norms, various state-of-the-art pollution control systems /
devices as discussed below have been installed to control air and water pollution.
Electrostatic Precipitators:
The ash left behind after combustion of coal is arrested in high efficiency Electrostatic
Precipitators (ESPs) and particulate emission is controlled well within the stipulated
norms. The ash collected in the ESPs is disposed to Ash Ponds in slurry form
Flue Gas Stacks:
Tall Flue Gas Stacks have been provided for wide dispersion of the gaseous emissions
(SOX, NOX etc) into the atmosphere.
Low-NOX Burners:
In gas based NTPC power stations, NOx emissions are controlled by provision of Low-
NOx Burners (dry or wet type) and in coal fired stations, by adopting best combustion
practices.
Neutralisation Pits:
Neutralisation pits have been provided in the Water Treatment Plant (WTP) for pH
correction of the effluents before discharge into Effluent Treatment Plant (ETP) for further
treatment and use.
Coal Settling Pits / Oil Settling Pits:
lx
In these Pits, coal dust and oil are removed from the effluents emanating from the Coal
Handling Plant (CHP), coal yard and Fuel Oil Handling areas before discharge into ETP.
DE & DS Systems:
Dust Extraction (DE) and Dust Suppression (DS) systems have been installed in all coal
fired power stations in NTPC to contain and extract the fugitive dust released in the Coal
Handling Plant (CHP).
Cooling Towers:
Cooling Towers have been provided for cooling the hot Condenser cooling water in closed
cycle Condenser Cooling Water (CCW) Systems. This helps in reduction in thermal
pollution and conservation of fresh water.
Ash Dykes & Ash Disposal Systems:
Ash ponds have been provided at all coal based stations except Dadri where Dry Ash
Disposal System has been provided. Ash Ponds have been divided into lagoons and
provided with garlanding arrangements for change over of the ash slurry feed points for
even filling of the pond and for effective settlement of the ash particles.
Ash in slurry form is discharged into the lagoons where ash particles get settled from the
slurry and clear effluent water is discharged from the ash pond. The discharged effluents
conform to standards specified by CPCB and the same is regularly monitored.
At its Dadri Power Station, NTPC has set up a unique system for dry ash collection and
disposal facility with Ash Mound formation. This has been envisaged for the first time in
Asia which has resulted in progressive development of green belt besides far less
requirement of land and less water requirement as compared to the wet ash disposal
system.
Ash Water Recycling System:
lxi
Further, in a number of NTPC stations, as a proactive measure, Ash Water Recycling
System (AWRS) has been provided. In the AWRS, the effluent from ash pond is
circulated back to the station for further ash sluicing to the ash pond. This helps in savings
of fresh water requirements for transportation of ash from the plant.
The ash water recycling system has already been installed and is in operation at
Ramagundam, Simhadri, Rihand, Talcher Kaniha, Talcher Thermal, Kahalgaon, Korba
and Vindhyachal. The scheme has helped stations to save huge quantity of fresh water
required as make-up water for disposal of ash.
Dry Ash Extraction System (DAES):
Dry ash has much higher utilization potential in ash based products (such as bricks,
aerated autoclaved concrete blocks, concrete, Portland pozzolana cement, etc.). DAES has
been installed at Unchahar, Dadri, Simhadri, Ramagundam, Singrauli, Kahalgaon,
Farakka, Talcher Thermal, Korba,
Liquid Waste Treatment Plants & Management System:
The objective of industrial liquid effluent treatment plant (ETP) is to discharge lesser and
cleaner effluent from the power plants to meet environmental regulations. After primary
treatment at the source of their generation, the effluents are sent to the ETP for further
treatment. The composite liquid effluent treatment plant has been designed to treat all
liquid effluents which originate within the power station e.g. Water Treatment Plant
(WTP), Condensate Polishing Unit (CPU) effluent, Coal Handling Plant (CHP) effluent,
floor washings, service water drains etc. The scheme involves collection of various
effluents and their appropriate treatment centrally and re-circulation of the treated effluent
for various plant uses.
NTPC has implemented such systems in a number of its power stations such as
Ramagundam, Simhadri, Kayamkulam, Singrauli, Rihand, Vindhyachal, Korba, Jhanor
lxii
Gandhar, Faridabad, Farakka, Kahalgaon and Talcher Kaniha. These plants have helped to
control quality and quantity of the effluents discharged from the stations.
Sewage Treatment Plants & Facilities:
Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs) sewage treatment facilities have been provided at all
NTPC stations to take care of Sewage Effluent from Plant and township areas. In a
number of NTPC projects modern type STPs with Clarifloculators, Mechanical Agitators,
sludge drying beds, Gas Collection Chambers etc have been provided to improve the
effluent quality. The effluent quality is monitored regularly and treated effluent
conforming to the prescribed limit is discharged from the station. At several stations,
treated effluents of STPs are being used for horticulture purpose.
Environmental Institutional Set-up
Realizing the importance of protection of the environment with speedy development of the
power sector, the company has constituted different groups at project, regional and
Corporate Centre level to carry out specific environment related functions. The
Environment Management Group, Ash Utilisation Group and Centre for Power Efficiency
& Environment Protection (CENPEEP) function from the Corporate Centre and initiate
measures to mitigate the impact of power project implementation on the environment and
preserve ecology in the vicinity of the projects. Environment Management and Ash
Utilisation Groups established at each station, look after various environmental issues of
the individual station.
Environment Management During Operation Phase
lxiii
NTPC's environment friendly approach to power has already begun to show results in
conservation of natural resources such as water and fuel (coal, oil & gas) as well as control
of environmental pollution. As already mentioned earlier, NTPC has chalked out a set of
well defined activities that are envisaged right from the project conceptualisation stage so
that during the entire life cycle of the power plant, NTPC is fully compliant with various
environment regulations and a pristine environment and ecological balance is maintained
in and around its power station and townships. Following is brief description of some of
the measures taken during the operation phase of the stations.
Performance enhancement and up-gradation measures are undertaken by the organisation
during the post operational stage of the stations. These activities have greatly helped to
minimise the impact on environment and preserve the ecology in and around its power
projects. These measures have been enumerated as follows.
Monitoring of Environmental Parameters:
A broad based Environment Monitoring Programme has been formulated and
implemented in NTPC. All pollutants discharged from the power plant such as stack
emission, ash pond effluent, main plant effluent, domestic effluent and Condenser Cooling
Water (CCW) effluent are monitored at the stipulated frequency at the source itself and at
the points of discharge. In addition to the above, ambient air, surface water and ground
water quality in and around NTPC plants are regularly monitored to assess any adverse
impacts as a result of operation of the power plant.
On-Line Data Base Management:
In order to have better control on pollution and to achieve effective environment
management in and around NTPC stations, it is imperative to have an on-line, reliable and
efficient environment information system on the plant operational and environmental
performance parameters at all three levels i.e generating Stations, Regional Headquarters
and Corporate Centre. In consideration of the above, a computerized programme, namely
"Paryavaran Monitoring System" - PMS, which could provide reliable storage, prompt and
lxiv
accurate flow of information on environmental performance of Stations was developed
and installed in NTPC. This software facilitates direct transfer of environment reports and
other environment related information from stations to the Regional Headquarters and
Corporate Centre. The PMS has already been implemented at Corporate Centre, the
Regional Headquarters and most of the Stations.
This system has helped in achieving continuous improvement in NTPC’s environment
performance through improved monitoring and reporting system by using the trend
analysis and advanced data management techniques.
Environment Reviews:
To maintain constant vigil on environmental compliance, Environmental Reviews are
carried out at all operating stations and remedial measures have been taken wherever
necessary. As a feedback and follow-up of these Environmental Reviews, a number of
retrofit and up-gradation measures have been undertaken at different stations.
Such periodic Environmental Reviews and extensive monitoring of the facilities carried
out at all stations have helped in compliance with the environmental norms and timely
renewal of the Air and Water Consents.
Upgradation & Retrofitting of Pollution Control Systems:
In order to keep pace with the changing norms and ensure compliance with statutory
requirements in the field of pollution control, NTPC keeps an open mind for Renovation
and Modernisation (R & M) and Retrofitting and Upgradation of pollution monitoring and
control facilities in its existing stations. It is important to mention that such
modifications/retrofit programs not only helped in betterment of environment but also in
resource conservation.
High efficiency Electro-Static Precipitators (ESPs) of the order of 99.5% and above have
been provided at NTPC stations for control of stack particulate emissions. However, the
ESPs of a number of stations were built prior to the promulgation of the Environment
lxv
(Protection) Act, 1986 and notification of emission control standards under this Act.
Remedial measures have already been taken up and implemented to improve the
efficiency of the existing ESPs at various NTPC stations. ESP performance enhancement
programme by adopting advanced micro-processor based Electrostatic Precipitator
Management System (EPMS) was installed at its power stations at Singrauli,
Ramagundam, Korba, Farakka, Rihand, Vindhyachal and Unchahar. Additional ESPs
were retrofitted in the older power stations, namely at Badarpur and Talcher Thermal. As a
result of the above retrofits, the emission of Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM) has been
brought down appreciably at the above stations and is maintained within the present
statutory limit of 150 mg/Nm3. In new projects, the ESPs have been designed for a
maximum permissible outlet dust emission of 50 mg/Nm3 to meet the likely stringent
emission norms in the near future.
Resources Conservation
With better awareness and appreciation towards ecology and environment, the
organization is continually looking for innovative and cost effective solutions to conserve
natural resources and reduce wastes. Some of the measures include:
Reduction in land requirements for main plant and ash disposal areas in newer
units.
Capacity addition in old plants, within existing land.
Reduction in water requirement for main plant and ash disposal areas through
recycle and reuse of water.
Efficient use of Fuel (Coal, Natural gas and Fuel oil) and
Reduction in fuel requirement through more efficient combustion and adoption of
state-of-the-art technologies such as super critical boilers
lxvi
Waste Management
Various types of wastes such as Municilal or domestic wastes, hazardous wastes, Bio-
Medical wastes get generated in power plant areas, plant hospital and the townships of
projects. The wastes generated are a number of solid and hazardous wastes like used oils
& waste oils, grease, lead acid batteries, other lead bearing wastes (such as garkets etc.),
oil & clarifier sludge, used resin, used photo-chemicals, asbestos packing, e-waste, metal
scrap, C&I wastes, electricial scrap, empty cylinders (refillable), paper, rubber products,
canteen (bio-degradable) wastes, buidling material wastes, silica gel, glass wool, fused
lamps & tubes, fire resistant fluids etc. These wastes fall either under hazardous wastes
category or non-hazardous wastes category as per classification given in Government of
India’s notification on Hazardous Wastes (Management and Handling) Rules 1989 (as
amended on 06.01.2000 & 20.05.2003). Handling and manegement of these wastes in
NTPC stations have been discussed below.
Municipal Waste Management:
Domestic or municipal waste is generated in households at townships. This waste is
seggregated into bio-degradable and non-biodegradable wastes at source itself in different
coloured containers and thereafter the two types are disposed separately. Bio-degradable
waste is spread uniformly in identified low lying areas and thereafter it is covered with
soil for use later as manure after composting. The seggregated non bio-degradable waste is
disposed off separately in other identified low lying areas and is spread out uniformly.
Hazardous Waste Management:
NTPC being a proactive organization, the handling and disposal of hazardous wastes are
done as per the Hazardous Wastes (Management & Handling) Rules 1989 (as amended in
2003) guidelines issued by Government of India for the treatment, storage and disposal of
hazardous wastes. Scientific study on management and handling of hazardous wastes was
lxvii
carried out at a few NTPC stations to adopt the best practices so that there is a complete
compliance with statutory requirements. In NTPC sataione, the Hazardous Wastes
(Recyclable) are sold / auctioned to registered recyclers / refiners. The other hazardous
wastes such as the activated carbon resins, used drums (hazardous) chromium (Cr-III
electrolytes, used petro-chemicals, asbestos packings, used torch batteries, ribbon, toners /
cartridges, mixed wastes (waste oil, water & cotton) filters, earth contaminated with
synthetic oil (FQF) glass used & sodium silicate, lamps & tubes etc. fall under the
category of Hazardous Wastes (Non-Recyalable). These wastes are small in quantity and
are stored in properly identified locations. As per the notification, hazardous wastes (non-
recyalable) are to be sent to State Pollution Control Board (SPCB) approved common
treatment storage and disposal facility (TSDF).
Bio-Medical Waste Management:
Hospital (or Bio-medical) wastes get generated from hospitals and they include urine bags,
human anatomical wastes, plaster of paris waste, empty plastic bottles of water & glucose,
blood & chemical mixed cotton, blood & urines tubes etc. these wastes are segregated and
are placed in buckets of different colours as per the notification for Bio-Medical Waste
(Management & Handling) Rules. The seggregated bio-medical wastes are either disposed
through the SPCB approved agency or they are treated in autoclaves before disposal into
bio-medical waste disposal pits. The treated bio-medical waste is spread uniformly and
covered with 10 cm thick soil in bio-medical waste disposal pits.
Land Use / Bio-diversity
As a policy, NTPC lays special emphasis on land use and Bio-diversity by way of
development of green belts, energy plantations, reclmation of abandoned Ash Ponds and
EIA and ecological monitoring in the project areas and its surroundings.
Reclamation of Abandoned Ash ponds:
lxviii
The reclamation of abandoned ash pond sites is a challenging task. NTPC has reclaimed
temporary ash disposal areas at some of its projects namely Ramagundam, Talcher
Thermal, Rihand, Singrauli and Unchahar through plantation and converted these sites
into lush green environments. Extensive plantations have also been undertaken on dry ash
mound at NTPC-Dadri. It is planned to reclaim all the abandoned ash disposal areas by
plantation.
Green Belts, Afforestation & Energy Plantations:
What’s more, in a concerted bid to counter the growing ecological threat, NTPC is
undertaking afforestation programmes covering vast areas of land in and around its
projects. Appropriate afforestation programmes for plant, township and green belt areas of
the project have been implemented at all projects.
In order to enhance green cover in the areas around our projects, as a responsible corporate
citizen, NTPC till date has planted more than 18 million trees at its projects throughout the
country. The afforestation has not only contributed to the aesthetics but also has been
serving as a 'sink' for the pollutants released from the station and thereby protecting the
quality of ecology and environment in and around the projects. Thrust has also been given
to bio-diesel plantation and around 4.8 lakh energy plants including Pongamia and
Jatropha have already been planted. A pilot project for extraction of seeds from these bio-
diesel plants has also been set up.
Ecological Monitoring & Scientific Studies
NTPC has been a leader in the industrial sector of India in undertaking scientific studies
related to thermal power generation. NTPC has pioneered several scientific studies in
collaboration with national/ international institutions to develop an environmental
lxix
databank e.g. Detailed Geohydrological Studies to understand the impact of ash pond
leachate on ground water and Ecological Impacts Monitoring through Remote Sensing
Data have been carried out at its operating stations as discussed below.
Environment Impact Asssement Studies:
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Studies are inevitably undertaken to evaluate
potential negative impacts as well as to formulate Environmental Management Plans to
overcome the identified impacts. Based on the recommendations of Environmental Impact
Assessment Study and Environmental Management Plan (EMP) and the conditions
stipulated in the clearances from Ministry of Environment and Forests and State Pollution
Control Boards.
These studies consists of impact assessment in the area of the land use, water use, socio-
economic aspects, soil, hydrology, water quality, meteorology, air quality, terrestrial and
aquatic ecology and noise. These studies are conducted before starting the construction as
well as after operation of the plant and gives comprehensive status of the environment as
existed before construction as well as in the post operational stages of the project.
The EIA involves stage-by-stage evaluation of various parameters which affect the
environment. Based on EIA study, wherever required, specific scientific studies are also
conducted to scientifically assess the likely impact of the pollutants on the sensitive flora
and fauna in the surroundings, as also, to take preventive and mitigatory measures,
wherever required.
Apart from project specific EIA studies, Regional Environmental Assessment studies have
been conducted for Integrated Development of Singrauli, Korba and Ramagundam areas.
Such studies are of first of their kind in India and probably very few such studies have
been undertaken in other countries.
Socio-economic Studies:
Detailed socio-economic studies are undertaken to establish the socio-economic status of
project affected persons and rehabilitation and resettlement plans are drawn in
lxx
consultation with the state government. Rehabilitation and resettlement options include
land for land (subject to availability), limited jobs with NTPC and contractors and self
employment schemes. In addition, NTPC also undertakes community development
activities in the surrounding villages.
Ecological Monitoring Programme:
NTPC has undertaken a comprehensive Ecological Monitoring Programme through
Satellite Imagery Studies covering an area of about 25 Kms radius around some of its
major plants. The studies have been conducted through National Remote Sensing Agency
(NRSA), Hyderabad at its power stations at Ramagundam, Farakka, Korba, Vindhyachal,
Rihand and Singrauli. These studies have revealed significant environmental gains in the
vicinity areas of the project as a result of pursuing sound environment management
practices. Some of these important gains which have been noticed are increase in dense
forest area, increase in agriculture area, increase in average rainfall, decrease in waste land
etc. In general, the studies, as such, have revealed that there is no significant adverse
impact on the ecology due to the project activities in any of these stations. Such studies
conducted from time to time around a power project have established comprehensive
environment status at various post operational stages of the project.
Geo-hydrological Studies:
NTPC has conducted several geohydrological studies of the ash disposal areas at its
projects (Singrauli, Rihand, Vindhyachal, Korba, Farakka and Talcher) through reputed
institutions like Indian Institutes of Technology, Roorkee; Indian Institutes of Technology,
Mumbai, Centre for Studies on Man and Environment, Calcutta. All these studies
conclude that the leaching of heavy metals from ash occurs only under pH 4 or below. In
practice, the pH of the ash water is either neutral or alkaline (7 or above) and hence the
leaching of heavy metals is highly unlikely.
lxxi
Use of Waste Products & Services -Ash Utilization
Ash is the main solid waste which is put into use for various products and services. NTPC
has adopted user friendly policy guidelines on ash utilization.
In order to motivate entrepreneurs to come forward with ash utilization schemes, NTPC
offers several facilities and incentives. These include free issue of all types of ash viz. Dry
Fly Ash / Pond Ash / Bottom Ash and infrastructure facilities, wherever feasible.
Necessary help and assistance is also offered to facilitate procurement of land, supply of
electricity etc from Government Authorities. Necessary techno-managerial assistance is
given wherever considered necessary. Besides, NTPC uses only ash based bricks and Fly
Ash portland pozzolana cement (FAPPC) in most of its construction activities.
Demonstration projects are taken up in areas of Agriculture, Building materials, Mine
filling etc. The utilisation of ash and ash based products is progressively increasing as a
result of the concrete efforts of these groups.
Advanced / Eco-friendly Technologies
NTPC has gained expertise in operation and
management of 200 MW and 500 MW Units installed
at different Stations all over the country and is looking
ahead for higher capacity Unit sizes with super critical
steam parameters for higher efficiencies and for
associated environmental gains. At Sipat, higher
capacity Units of size of 660 MW and advanced Steam
Generators employing super critical steam parameters have already been implemented as a
green field project.
Higher efficiency Combined Cycle Gas Power Plants are already under operation at all
gas-based power projects in NTPC. Advanced clean coal technologies such as Integrated
lxxii
Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) have higher efficiencies of the order of 45% as
compared to about 38% for conventional plants. NTPC has initiated a techno-economic
study under USDOE / USAID for setting up a commercial scale demonstration power
plant by using IGCC technology. These plants can use low grade coals and have higher
efficiency as compared to conventional plants.
With the massive expansion of power generation, there is also growing awareness among
all concerned to keep the pollution under control and preserve the health and quality of the
natural environment in the vicinity of the power stations. NTPC is committed to provide
affordable and sustainable power in increasingly larger quantity. NTPC is conscious of its
role in the national endeavour of mitigating energy poverty, heralding economic
prosperity and thereby contributing towards India’s emergence as a major global
economy.

HUMAN RESOURCES
IN
NTPC
“*HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT*”
“Human Resource Management is concerned with the most effective use of people to
achieve organizational and individual goals. It is a way of managing people at work, so
that they give their best to the organization.”
lxxxvii
- Invancevich and Glueck. “Human Resource Management is that part of management progress which is primarily
concerned with the human constituents of the organization.”
- F.E.L. Brech.
Human Resource Management is a process of bringing people and organization together
so that the goal of each are met. It is that part of management process which is concerned
with the management of human resource in an organization. It tries to secure the best from
people by winning their wholehearted cooperation. In short, it may be defined as the art of
procuring, developing and maintaining competent workforce to achieve the goal of an
organization in an effective and efficient manner.
EVOLUTION OF HRM:-
The concept of HRM emerged in the mid 1980s against the background of the work of
famous writers on management, like Pascal and Athos {1981} and Peter and Waterman
{1982}, who produced list of the attributes that they claimed characterized successful
companies.
The purpose of HRM is to ensure that the organization is
able to achieve success through people. Human resource management encompasses those
activities designed to provide, motivate and coordinate the human resources of the
organization. In fact government report shows that approximately 73% of national income
is used to compensate its employees.
Human resource management is a modern term for what has traditionally been referred to
as personnel administration or personnel management.
*CHALLENGES FACED BY HRM*
Changes in the socio- economic and political conditions are bound to bring about changes
in the environment within the organization. The personnel managers of today may find
themselves obsolete because of the rapidly changing business environment, and therefore
lxxxviii
they should constantly update their knowledge and skills by looking at the organization’s
need and objectives. Some of the important challenges are:-
*Vision Penetration:
Evolving the right vision is an entrepreneurial or top mgmt. function, but its utility
increases immensely if it percolates, and is understood and accepted down the line.
*Changes in legal environment:
To meet with the increasing changes in the legal environment, necessary adjustments will
have to be made so that greater utilization of human resources can be achieved.
Vision Penetration.
Changes in Legal. Environment
Technological Advances.
Computerised Information System.
Satisfaction of Higher Level Needs.
lxxxix
*Technological Advances:
In the wake of technological advances new jobs will be created and many old jobs will
become redundant.
*Computerized Information System:
It will play a revolutionary role in managerial decision making. It will also have an
increasing impact in coordination and at strategic level.
*Satisfaction of high level needs:
The workers are becoming much aware of their higher level needs. This awareness is
likely to intensify further in the future workforce. Therefore managers would be required
to evolve appropriate techniques of motivating the workers getting work from them.
*THREE DIMENSIONS OF HRM*
According to the National Institute of Human Resource Management {NIPM} the three
dimensions of Personnel Management include:
xc
Human Resource Management {HRM} is a management function that helps manager
plan, recruit, select, train, develop, remunerate and maintain members for an organization.
HRM is the latest nomenclature used to denote personnel management {PM}.
The HR/ Personnel manager must be fair and firm, tactful and resourceful, sympathetic
and considerate, knowledgeable about labour laws, have a broad social outlook, and have
competence and confident.
*HR VISION OF NTPC*
“To enable our people to be a family of committed world class professionals
making NTPC a leading organization.”
Personnel Management.
{Personnel Aspect} Recruitment,
Selection, Training, Compensation,
Productivity.
{Welfare Aspect}Working condition,

* CONCLUSION*
cxxvi
NTPC, India’s largest Power Company with an installed capacity 30644 MW is presently
operating 15 coal based and 07 gas based power stations and 04 joint ventures. NTPC
contributes nearly one third of the country’s entire power generation during 2008-09 and
plans to become a 75’000 MW power company by 2017.While ample opportunities to
grow, NTPC has been ranked as one of the great place of work in India by independent
surveys.
NTPC Singrauli performs all his social responsibilities very efficiently.
The job satisfaction level of employees is in its satisfactory level. . It never lags
behind in putting the optimum input through various means to motivate the
employees for the maximum and best output.
NTPC is well aware about its social and environmental responsibilities.
The findings show that the employees are quite satisfied with the policies, rules
& regulations of NTPC.
The compensation and the welfare dimension of NTPC is at a higher acceptability
position amongst the employees
cxxvii
*SUGGESTIONS*
Although NTPC Singrauli is always committed towards their employees and their families
but then also I would like to give some of the suggestions.
cxxviii
It is must and necessary that there should be proper coordination and
understanding among executives and non-executives groups.
It is also necessary that the non- executives groups must be motivated time to time
by providing them some incentives, benefits or doing some extra welfare works for
them.
The feelings of satisfaction can be made better by making more employees
friendly especially for the non-executive population.
The NTPC administration should take steps to upgrade civil amenities provided
inside the colony. Transportation and communication should be given a relook and
rail connectivity & road connectivity should be made more frequent & responsible.
