SUBJECT:
Internship report on any organization is a necessary element to get the MBA degree from any university. I have written an internship report on PTCL and review its Human Resource system / procedures adopted for such purpose. My major recommendation is this: PTCL should improve their contact with middle & lower level employees especially supervisory level and establish internal performance appraisal system to avoid the future complications & to evaluate the employee performance & encouraging them. That conclusion was arrived at after eight weeks extensive practical training/study in the HR department of the company. Besides this, I also studied the role of C.B.A during the latest proposal of Volunteer Separation Scheme (VSS) for employees. Because of my analysis, companys officials felt these flaws in the system & are agree on my suggestions and wanted to implement them in near future. I am grateful to my seniors, colleges, and subordinates who assist me to complete this comprehensive report in an excellent way. If the members of the review committee of this report have any additional questions, I Inshallah will try my best to do it more well way.

INTRODUCTION
even years into a new century, the telecom sector of world finds itself at
crossroads after changing itself almost beyond recognition over the last 25 years. Privatization and competition are the order of the day, with a majority of
countries having adopted these policies to advance their telecom sector. The results have been impressive; the industry has grown at unprecedented pace. Although there has been a phenomenal growth in Pakistan, especially in the cellular mobile communication and in the internet, yet the late density remains almost stagnant.
So far PTCL is the sole land line service provider of Pakistan. PTCL is the giant of Pakistan telecommunication industry and enjoying the monopoly. This part of the report contains a brief introduction of PTCL. This introduction is divided into two parts, history and current situation.
BRIEF HISTORY
Over the years, technology has changed the concept of communication and what was thought to be a fictional only a decade ago, has actually made its way through to our hands today. This is the future we dreamt of so fondly. Welcome to the modern age, of telecommunication, which have become complementary to our lives. But there must also be an anchor to introduce, allow, improve and channelize all these services and
-2-
Internship Report innovations sweeping through the globe. In Pakistan same anchor is Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited from the humble beginnings of posts & Telegraph Department in 1947 and establishment of Pakistan Telephone & Telegraph Department in 1962, to this very day, PTCL is a story of commitment and vision.
Pakistan Telecommunication Corporation (PTC) set sails for its voyage of glory In December 1990, taking over operations and functions from Pakistan Telephone and Telegraph Department under Pakistan Telecommunication Corporation Act 1991. This coincided with the Governments competitive Policy, encouraging Private Sector participation and resulting in award of licenses for Cellular, card-operated Payphones, paging and, lately, data communication Services.
Pursuing a progressive policy, the Government in 1991, announced its Plans to privatize PTC, and in 1994 issued six million vouchers exchangeable into 600 million shares of the would-be PTCL in two separate placements. Each had a par value of Rs.10 per share. These vouchers were converted into PTCL Shares in mid 1996.In 1995, Pakistan Telecommunication (Reorganization) Ordinance Formed the basis for PTCL monopoly over basic telephony in the country. It also paved the way for the establishment of an independent regulatory regime. The Provisions of the Ordinance were lent permanence in October 1996 through Pakistan Telecommunication (Reorganization) Act. The same year, Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited was formed and listed on all stock Exchanges in Pakistan. Since then, PTCL has been working vigorously to meet the dual Challenge of telecom development and socio-economic uplift of the country. This is characterized by a clearer appreciation of ongoing telecom scenario where in convergence of technologies continuously changes the shape of the Sector. A measure of this understanding is progressive measures such as Establishment of the companys mobile and Internet subsidiaries (U-fone & Paknet) in 1998.
As telecommunication monopolies head towards and imminent end, services and infrastructure providers are set to face even bigger challenges. Pakistan also entered -3-
Internship Report post-monopoly era with deregulation of the sector in January 2003. On the Government level, a comprehensive liberalization policy for Telecom sector has already been announced now. Now PTA have issued License to two new telecom companies in Pakistan TELENOR international and WARID TEL this act will put some challenges for PTCL to cope with.
PTCL is in process of enhancing organizational and business Proficiency through vertical integration and horizontal diversification. At the same time, cross-national ownerships, operations and partnerships are being evaluated with a view to developing and diversifying the business.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Financial analysis of any organization is very necessary for the evaluation and assessment of a firm. The information derived from these types of analysis should be blended to determine the overall financial position. This analysis includes ratio analysis, common size analysis and the study of differences in components of financial statement. One of the primary objectives is identification of major changes in trends, amounts and relationship and investigation of the reasons underlying those changes.
In the financial analysis of P.T.C.L we will analyze some important information about the company. As I did my internship in human resource management, but it has not an independent organization so I have to analyze the P.T.C.L for the analysis purpose.
Current ratio
Current Ratio is an indicator to determine the short term debt paying ability or the liquidity of a company. It tells us that how many current assets are available to pay for the current liabilities of the company. Current ratio of the company in 31 Mar 2008 is 1.67& is favorable for a company. The ideal condition is 1.1 but ratio is quite reasonable.
Quick ratio:
Quick ratio or the acid test ratio also performs the same task as is performed by current ratio but with more sophistication. Quick ratio of the company is 1.5 up to Mar 31, 2008 its quick ratio is decreasing. As P.T.C.L is a service organization there fore the quick ratio is very good because there is not need of inventory as any manufacturing organization needs.

Marketing department Customer Care & Customer Services department HR department Revenue department
Now we move department wise and give brief introduction of each department, and I will explain the work flow of these departments.
- 30 -
Internship Report
Marketing Department is called a revenue-generating department of an organization. Marketing Department undertakes market research and gives feedback to management about customers needs and wants on the basis of which, products and services are developed and positioned to give value to the customers. Thus Marketing department of an organization plays a pivotal role in its business development, growth & expansion. During my internship I worked with PTCL marketing department. Through working there I gain so much practical knowledge that will help me during my practical life. For understanding the work flow and the operation of the department we have to move in certain manner. We have to look the key operation the structure of the department and in the end the focus will be on the critical analysis.
So we will move in the pattern describe below: Marketing strategy of PTCL Market segmentation of PTCL Marketing mix of PTCL Promotional strategy of PTCL
- 31 -
Internship Report department so we have to move traditionally .Classically, Marketing has been all about the four Ps: Product, Place, Price and Promotion. The marketer identifies a target market, defines the product and Pricing to appeal to this market and a strategy to deliver the product to the market. Thus the marketer is the steward of the value proposition, ensuring that the firm is delivering maximum value to its customers.
We will briefly discuss below the marketing strategy, product planning, development & management, Pricing strategy, distribution strategy and promotional strategy: Marketing Strategy Normally, a marketing strategy identifies the target markets, the desired position in each market and the marketing mix that will persuade those target markets to part with their money. Market is targeted through market segmentation. Segmentation can be done on four types i.e. Demographic Segmentation (age, gender, race/ethnicity, household type, home ownership, education, employment, income etc.), Geographic segmentation. Positioning oneself by product can do positioning differentiation, positioning by product usage, positioning against a particular competitor, positioning against an entire product category, positioning by association and positioning by problem, Marketing Mix includes Ps i.e. Product, Price, Promotion and place. TARGET MARKET PTCLs 80% revenue comes from just 20% customers, who are corporate customers and other big and small business organizations. The main focus of PTCL marketing efforts is on retaining and satisfying that 20% chunk of key customers at any cost. For this purpose, PTCL is now established Corporate Customer Services Centers in major cities to take care of these vital customers. Apart from these important customers, PTCL targets general public and other small business companies for sale of its landline telecom services like telephone, fax, Internet, as well as other services like CLI, VMS, and Digital Facilities etc.
- 32 -
Internship Report
2. Market Segmentation
Basically PTCL segmented its market on two bases To better implement customer services features, segment the market on a customer basis: Corporate Resident ional
PTCL has segmented its market for its services and products to effectively deal with its customers. Some of its services like Universal Access Number, Co-Location centers and virtual private network are specially targeted at corporate customers and business concerns. The other services like new telephone connections, digital services etc. are meant for mass market. The services like Internet, fax facility etc. are targeted at both the corporate and general customers. POSITIONING STRATEGY As PTCL is the sole provider of the landline telecom services in the country; it is the market leader in providing these services because there are no competitors to challenge its market leader status. Thus presently PTCL is facing no problems in positioning its services in the market as a market leader because it enjoys monopoly in the industry. However, with the deregulation of telecom sector PTCL is gearing up itself to maintain this market leader position, on the other hand competitors are doing to challenge it.

Pricing Strategy:
Being a government organization, PTCL is not authorized to determine the prices of its products itself, the Telecom Regulator Authority viz. Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) fixes the prices of telecom services. The process is such that whenever PTCL intends to increase or reduce the rates of its services, it submits its Proposal to PTA for approval. PTA then calls consumers representatives, journalists and other interested groups for discussion on the proposal. After listening to the viewpoints of all the interested parties, PTA gives its decision. If PTA approves PTCLs proposal, the new rates are enforced. It may be mentioned here that telecom technology is only
- 35 -
Internship Report technology whose rates are on the decline with the passage of time. PTCL also rationalizes its tariff with the passage of time. Tariff rationalization process started in 1997 as part of GoP Telecom Sector policy for privatization of this sector. It was mainly focused on rebalancing the domestic process like NWD, international, local call, line rent etc. Rebalancing is completed by the end of 2003 (as per Tariff rates) with the objective to position PTCL for competition.
4. PROMOTIONAL STRATEGY PTCL is using following components of promotional mix for the promotion and Publicity of its product/services. Advertising:
In promotional mix, PTCLs main stress is on advertising in print and electronic media. PTCL periodically places its advertisements in print media on services like H/Qs hotline 0800-44544, Caller line identification (CLI), Voice Messaging Service, Digital Facilities, PTCL Prepaid Calling Cards, Inquiry 17, Complaint 18, phone bill cards prepaid telephone etc. to remind the customers of these services. Sometimes, corporate ads are also released to print media to mark special occasions. PTCLs Commercials on Prepaid Calling Card, CLI, Voice Messaging, Digital Facilities etc. are also broadcast immediately on electronic media as reminders to Customers.
Sales Promotion: PTCL charges 1/3rd rates on national calls from 06:00 pm 07:00 am and local calls are free from 11:00 pm to 06:00 am to promote the usage of its telecom network. Moreover, PTCL offers special rate packages on special occasions like Ramadan Package and EID package, which offer customer reduced rates for specific timings. For Example, In EID Package PTCL charges half rates from 6:00am - 6:00pm and quarter
- 36 -
Internship Report from 6:00pm 6:00 am to attract customers to use its telephone service. These rates result in increased revenue for PTCL and also facilitate the customers to talk to their near and dear ones on these special occasions on affordable rates.
Personal Selling:
As PTCL is enjoying monopoly in fixed-line telephony, the Company has no Professional sales force because the company has not felt any strong need to use the Services of a sales force for increasing the sale of its products. At the moment, PTCLs Customer Services Centers are playing the role of sales outlets. Customers can make telephone calls; send fax messages from these Customer Services Centers. They can also get connected their telephone bills and get duplicate bills from these outlets. However, with the establishment of Marketing Department in PTCL, The marketing professionals are now in the process of inducting professional sales force for the company.

ADVICE
A major portion of the activities of those engaged in staff personnel work is in the nature of counsel and advice to line manager. Countless examples can be given. A shop foreman may be confronted with a grievance over distribution of overtime. Another foreman may have the problem employee who he feels should be disciplined or even suspended. At the time of the annual review of all salaried personnel for possible pay increases, the operating manager plays a key role in advising operating manager on the administration of the program. An apparent concerted slow down may occur in the assembly department. It may have been instituted by the union in retaliation for the cutting of piece rates the week before. How should production supervision handle this situation.
The H.R. Managers and their staffs are expected to be fully familiar with H.R. policy, the labor agreement, past experience and the needs and welfare of both the company and the employees in order to develop a sound solution. Successful personnel specialist must be people centered. They must be feeling sensitive, wants, and motives of other people. At the same time they must continually be cognizant of their obligation to preserve the structure and functioning of the organization. In fact, this really is the essence of H.R. management. Management must seek to so direct and coordinate the efforts of the people that the goals of the organization are achieved while at the same time providing need satisfactions for the members of that organization.

The H.R. department commonly assumes the responsibility for formulating the list of necessary rules together with the range of penalties for each offense. Frequently this list of rules and penalties is discussed and cleared with high-level line management before it is issued and communicated throughout the organization. These rules are called terms and conditions formerly known as Employment & Discipline (E&D) rules.
Most commonly, actual approval by the H.R. department has to be obtained before and employee may be discharged.

In addition, it is especially vital to achieve companywide uniformity in the handling of such cases.

LABOR RELATIONS
When a union has been certified by the National Industrial Relations Commission N.I.R.C, as the result of an election, as the sole and exclusive bargaining agency (C.B.A) for the employees, then management must bargain with it in regard to wages, rate of pay, hours of work, and other conditions of employment. The principal tasks involved in handling labor relations are contract negotiation, contract interpretation and administration, and grievance handling.
The H.R. department plays very significant role in labor-management relations. The director of industrial relation usually serves as a key member of the bargaining team often acting a chief management spokesman.

WEAKNESSES:
The Human Resource Department is not up to the mark for the proper appraisal system of the staff. The policies of the company are determined by the board of directors in accordance with the H.R. Department. However there are certain policies in which the Human Resource Department is dependent on the Ministry of IT & T Govt. of Pakistan Employees have developed a psychology that promotion criteria & procedures of the Human Resource Department of the company are not justified. The quality of service in areas is much poor hence creating the problems for customer. Human Resource Department is lacking employee training centers. There are only two Staff colleges. On the other hand the training opportunity is not provided to all the staff equally. If an employee wants to study during the job, he has to take approval from the Human Resource Department of the company; there are certain bottle necks for taking such approval. The management also never encourages employees for enhancing there qualifications/technical skills. The staff did not get any benefit for their higher qualifications in the shape of promotions or pay increments. Proper evaluation of the employees is not in the normal functioning of the company. Refreshing courses are on & off, not timely and frequently.
- 70 -
Internship Report The proper information system is not in progress for the Human Resource Department. The automation process by the Human Resource Department is slow hence delaying the functioning of the company.
Human Resource department lacks trained & related qualified staff and it is very difficult for the SEVP Human Resource to do the right things for the organization and it takes much time for normal working of the organization.
- 71 -
Internship Report
RECOMMENDATIONS
The Human Resources should take less time in recruitment and training the staff. Highly qualified & trained staff may be deputed in HR department. Refreshing courses should be adequate and more frequent during the year. The promotional criteria by the Human Resource Department should be defined and be as per rules. More training centers should be established. If there is lack of resources, it is difficult, the training centers of the other organizations in the same capacity can be utilized by determining the terms and conditions. During the training by Human Resource Department the ethical values should be more emphasized. The proper and competitive evaluation of the methods and procedures adopted by other competitors will enhance the performance of Human Resource Department. This is the era of Information Technology. The functions and procedures of the company should be converted from manual to the automatic. It will enhance the performance & accuracy of the Human Resource Department and ultimately of the company. Human Resource Department should allocate resources for this purpose. Human Resource Department may advice and train employees for one window operation in order to reduce the time and conserve the resources. Agents for the promotion of the company policies and to facilitate the customers by the Human Resource Department may be appointed with proper check and balance system. Pay packages may be revised in the light of profit earned by the organization.

CONCLUSIONS:
No doubt PTCL is enjoying monopoly but the time is came when competition will force company to change its policies to become favorite telecom service provider in the market & keep its current place & customer base. The actual working substances are the human beings .It goes with out saying that Human resources are the most important in the organization and so does the Human Resource Department .It integrate all the activities and functions of the company like job analysis, recruitment, staffing, training, designing compensation package, employees appraisal system. Human Resource Department plays the key role in the hiring, retention, motivation and promotion of the employees .Actually it assign the specified duties to the specified persons in this age of specialization. Human Resource manager should be well versed and confident in his field. He should be humane, well natured and have go face reading capabilities .All this ensures his success. He should be of the notion victory is not everything, but the way of fighting is.
