Case Studies
Interest at Bottom Level Jobs
A major international employer in Kathmandu is attempting to hire Nepalese
nationals with a view to tanning them for future positions in higher management.
It is the policy of the employer that all new members of the organization start at
the bottom and gradually work their way up to more important jobs. This policy
has been adopted because of the extreme complexity of the operation. The
employer believes that a manager, even after he has reached a point where he
delegates very broad powers to others, must have a fairly detailed knowledge of
what needs to be done. This policy has been successful in many of the other
countries in which this employer operates.
A number of the candidates interviewed in Nepal are well educated but come
from groups, which have traditionally not permitted men of high calibre to
perform the types of tasks required of new employees starting at the bottom. A
number of those hired have refused to perform these basic tasks and have left
after only short periods of employments. It is your responsibility to obtain new
employees, but you cannot change the "start at the bottom" policy.
