 Changing Scenario

 Indian PSU's asking employees to sign 3yr

bond: Is it the right way to go??
Public sector units (PSUs) such as RITES, National Thermal
Power (NTPC) and SAIL have asked their staff to sign a bond
to serve the organization for a fixed number of years
because of rising attrition levels especially among technical
staff.
 6th pay Commission to BRIDGE the
gap between PSU and Private sectors
Contd…

Allocating more funds for Training

 More Focus On Employees’
training and welfare
 IOC, the largest domestic company by sales, spent around Rs 673 cr on
employee welfare and training during FY09, up 45% from what it had
spent a year ago.
 BPCL was miles ahead of the competition as it registered a 181% growth
in expenditure on employee welfare and training.
 The third and fourth biggest spenders — SAIL and TCS — spent Rs 496 cr
and Rs 494 cr respectively, recording a growth of 40% and 29%
respectively
 ONGC invested around Rs 419 cr in employees’ training and welfare
during FY09, up more than 25% on a year ago, while in case of BHEL this
went up by 12% to Rs 371 cr.
 NTPC, the country’s largest power generation firm, and L&T found
themselves in the seventh and eighth position spending around Rs 359 cr
and Rs 271 cr respectively
 Working or doing business in India may be a
nightmare , but Indian Companies are the ones
which keep their Employees happy the most
among their global counterparts.

Kenexa, a HR solution provider did a research on “Driving Success
Through Performance Excellence and Employee Engagement” and
found that Indian Firms are best in Employee satisfaction
 CONCLUSION
when the chips were down for much of
Indian industry during the recent
slowdown when staff and salary cuts
were the norm in Private sectors, PSUs
swam against the tide and invested
more in Employees’ training and
welfare. It shows the importance of
Training & development in an
organization.
