Industry Profile

Evolution of Global Auto Industry

In past 70 years Motorcar has transformed society and personal mobility. In 1890, the
average person traveled 13 miles in a year and now an average person travels 13 miles a
day. There were 800 cars on the road at the end of 19th century. By 1910 that number
increased to almost 460000 with more than 300 cars makers setting up business. Ten year
later there were 8 million vehicles on the road. As production grew prices fell. During
second world war, the entire industry had embraced the concept of mass production,
initiated by Henry ford’s Model T. Growing personal wealth and international trade
created new export markets in North America, Japan and Western Europe. After the oil
crisis of 1973, manufacturing has been dominated by the production techniques, quality,
manufacturing and sales of Japanese manufacturers. By the year 2000 the Industry was
producing 59.7 million vehicles annually. In the 1990s and the early years of the new
millennium, growing consolidation among car and truck manufacturers has taken place.
The environment now has been the key issue in vehicle engineering and production. The
cost involved in meeting new environment laws has fuelled a sharp rise on product
development spending Those without the financial muscle have disappeared. The
similar fragmented commercial vehicle industry also during 1990 contracted into a
handful of global manufacturers.

Evolution of Indian Auto Component Industry

The Indian auto component industry is one of India's sunrise industries with tremendous
growth prospects. From a low-key supplier providing components to the domestic market
alone, the industry has emerged as one of the key auto components centers in Asia and is
today seen as a significant player in the Global Automotive Supply Chain. India is now
a supplier of a range of high-value and critical automobile components to global auto
makers such as General Motors, Toyota, Ford and Volkswagen amongst others.

According to the Auto Component Manufacturers' Association (ACMA), the Indian auto
component sector generated sales of about US$ 15 billion in fiscal year 2006-07,
including US$ 2.8 billion worth of exports.

Going by current trends in production and exports of auto components, the domestic
Indian auto component manufacturing industry is heading for a whopping 18% growth in
the coming years compared to the export market which is estimated to reach $2.7 bn by
the year 2010.
The three main factors providing impetus to this industry are the ever increasing domestic
automobile industry (two-wheelers, commercial vehicles and passenger cars), the

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


aftermarket sales and servicing industry and the outsourcing of component manufacturing
to India and China by the global titans

The Indian Auto component Industry has always been riding over the Indian Automobile
industry. The Component industry started out small in the 1940s supplying components to
Hindustan Motors and Premier Automobiles. In the 1950s, the arrival of Telco, Bajaj, and
Mahindra & Mahindra led to steadily increasing production. In the 1980s with Maruti,
the growth suddenly accelerated. Boom time for the auto components industry started
with the arrival of India's "people's car" - the Maruti.

The new car required components that would adhere to its stringent quality standards. It
virtually gave birth to a variety of new age auto component manufacturers who
manufactured components that combined the best of technology with quality. As Maruti
became India's best selling car, the path of Indian auto component industry took an
upswing. Export figures also climbed. Low costs of labor and raw material resulted in
exports taking a quantum jump.
The influx of foreign auto majors ranging from Mercedes Benz, Ford, General Motors to
Daewoo few years ago presented a world of opportunity for the industry. The auto
components industry responded with huge capacity expansion and modernization
programs.

However, the global auto giants soon realized that the Indian market was not as big as it
appeared to be. Their targets went haywire, inventories piled up and bookings were
canceled. This also coincided with a general slowdown in the Indian economy in the last
one or two years. The auto component industry in India, which is driven by domestic
demand, also faced sluggish growth. However, things have taken a turn for the better.

Growth in the commercial vehicle and the passenger car segments has been 20 per cent
year on year and 40 per cent year on year respectively from year 2000 onwards

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


Some Indian companies have used the recession to trim down by cutting costs and
improving productivity. Several companies have entered into technological collaboration
and equity partnership with world leaders in auto components. They have not only
adopted their systems but also their manufacturing and management practices. Strict
quality controls, sound technology and high volumes will enable the Indian auto
component industry to chart greater progress in the coming future.
The New multinationals that came in India to manufacture and sell in India realized that
it was cheaper to manufacture products in India by around 30%. They were exposed to a
new idea of exporting back low cost good quality products back to their global factories
and thus reduce their overall costs. This resulted into high demand for components and
that’s how at last the component industry lost its dependence on the local Automobile
manufacturers. The industry is now exposed to a global market, which is 50 times bigger
in size.

India’s automotive component industry manufactures the entire range of parts required by
the domestic automobile industry and currently employ about 250,000 persons. Auto
component manufacturers supply to two kinds of buyers – Original Equipment
Manufacturers (OEM) and the Replacement Market. The replacement market is
characterized by the presence of several small-scale suppliers who score over the
organized players in terms of excise duty exemptions and lower overheads.

Automotive industry crisis of 2008–2009

The automotive industry crisis of 2008–2009 is a global financial crisis in the auto
industry that began during the later half of 2008. The crisis is primarily felt in the United
States' automobile manufacturing industry and, by extension, Canada, due to the
Automotive Products Trade Agreement, but other automobile manufacturers, particularly
those in Europe and Japan, are also suffering from the crisis
The automotive sector was first weakened by the substantially more expensive
automobile fuels linked to the 2003-2008 oil crisis which, in particular, caused customers
to turn away from large sport utility vehicles (SUVs) and pickup trucks, the main market
of the American "Big Three" (General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler). The US automakers
also suffered from considerably higher wages than their non-unionized counterparts,

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


including salaries, benefits, healthcare, and pensions. In return for labor peace,
management granted concessions to its unions that resulted in uncompetitive cost
structures and significant legacy costs.
In 2008, the situation became critical because the global financial crisis and the related
placed pressure on the prices of raw materials. In certain countries, particularly the
United States, the Big Three have been under heavy criticism since their vehicle offerings
were largely fuel inefficient SUVs and light trucks, despite the increase in the price of oil.
Accordingly, they suffered both from consumer perception of relatively higher quality
models available from abroad — particularly from Japan and to some extent from Europe
—and from transplants, foreign cars manufactured or assembled in the United States.
The Big Three had neglected development of passenger cars and instead focused on light
trucks due to better profit margins, in order to offset the considerably higher labour costs,
falling considerably behind in these market segments to Japanese and European
automakers.
As of the beginning of 2009, the vehicle companies of the world are being hit hard by the
economic slowdown across national boundaries. Car companies from Asia, Europe,
North America, and elsewhere have been forced to implement creative marketing
strategies to entice reluctant consumers to purchase vehicles, when many firms are
experiencing double digit percentage sales declines. Major manufacturers, including the
Big Three and Toyota, are offering substantial discounts. Hyundai is even offering to
allow customers to return their new cars if they lose their jobs

CONCEPTUALIZATION

Evolution of HRM
Personnel functions: Till 1930s, it was not felt necessary to have a separate discipline
of management called “Personnel management”. In fact, this job was assigned as part of
the factory manager. Adam Smith’s concept of factory was that it consists of three
resources, land, labour and capital. This factory manager is expected to “procure,
Process and peddle” labour as one of the resources. The first time when such a specialist
“person” was used; it was to maintain a “buffer” between employer and employee to
meet the “legitimate need” of employees. However, it is the employer who decided what
is “legitimate need” of employees. In fact, the specialist “person” was more needed to
prevent “unionization” of employees. This was the case before 1930-s all over the world.
Earlier references: In western countries HRM had its primitive beginning in 1930s. Not
much thought was given on this subject in particular and no written records or documents
interesting to note HRM concepts was available, in ancient philosophies of Greek, Indian
and Chinese. This is not to suggest that industrial establishment and factories system, as it
is known today, existed in ancient Greece, India or china. The philosophy of managing

Scope of Human Resource Management

The Scope of HRM is in deed fast. All major activities in the working life of worker
from time of his entry in an organization until he / she leaves, come under the preview of
HRM. Specifically, the activities included are Human Resource planning, Job analysis
and design, Recruitment, Selection, Orientation and placement, Training and

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


development, Performance appraisal and Job evaluation, employee and executive
remuneration and communication, employee welfare, safety and health, industrial
relations and the like.

HRM is becoming a specialized branch giving rise to a number of specialized areas like :

Staffing
Welfare and Safety
Wages and Salary Administration
Training and Development
Labour Relations

Objectives of the HRM are to secure the following: -


1. Industrial peace: This is secured by excellent union management relations, healthy
inter-personal relationships, and promoting participative management style and good
industrial and labour relations.
2. Achieve High Productivity: The underlying objective brings to increase the “quantity
or volume” of the product or service for a given input, productivity improvement
programme is very significant in a competitive environment.
3. Better quality of working life of employees: This involves both intrinsic and
extrinsic factors connected with work.
4. Obtain and sustain competitive advantage through empowerment: continuous
improvement and innovative steps being the two essential ingredients to achieve and
sustain competitive advantage, today’s industries
are “knowledge based” and “skill intensive”.
5. Cordial relationship between the employer and employees.
6. Personnel research functions.
7. Proper orientation and introduction to the new employees.

Role of HR

Due to rapidly changing markets across various industries, the role of HR has changed
significantly. In today’s highly competitive markets it’s vital that human resources add
value to each organization. The role of HR has stepped up – and became an equal
business partner in order to support the business goals. They have to focus on the
strategies to preserve growth and profitability in their traditional western markets, while
aggressively pursuing the opportunities in the east.

Key topics:-
HR strategies have to be flexible to confront changing markets and company production
relocation plans
They have to identify and develop the right leader - one who can
identify the winning path and successfully lead the organization along that path
They have to manage to retain the talents - spread culture of commitment
They have to bring people who can boost the spirit of innovation

Introduction of Training
Training is process of learning a sequence of programmed behavior. It is the application
of knowledge. It gives people an awareness of the rules and procedures to guide their
behaviors. It attempts to improve their performance on the current job and prepares them
for an intended job.

Need for training :


Specifically, the need for training arises due to the following reasons: To match the
employee specifications with the Job requirements and organizational Needs:
Management finds deviations between employee’s present specifications and the job
requirements and organizational needs. Training is needed to fill these gaps by
developing and molding the e mployee skills, knowledge, attitude, behavior, etc… to the
tune of the job requirements and organizational needs as felt Glaxo India, ICICI…
Organizational Viability and the Transformation Process: The primary goal of most
of the organizations is that their viability is continuously influenced by environmental
pressure. If the organization desires to adapt to these changes, first it has to train the
employees to impart specific skills and knowledge in order to enable them to contribute
to organizational efficiency and to cope with training in order to ensure a smooth
transformation process.

Technological Advance: Every organization to survive and to be effective should adopt


the latest technology i.e. mechanization, computerization and automation. So, the
organization should train the employee’s train the employees to enrich them in the areas
of changing technical skills and knowledge from time to time.

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


Organizational Complexity: With the emergence of increased mechanization and
automation, manufacturing of multiple products and by-products or dealing in services of
diversified lines, extension of operations to various regions of the country or in overseas

countries, organization of most of the companies has become complex: This creates the
complex problems of co-ordination and integration of activities adaptable for and
adaptable to the expanding and diversifying situations. This situation calls for training in
the skills of co-ordination, integration and adaptability to the requirements of growth,
diversification and expansion.

Human relations: Trends in approach towards personnel management has changed from
the commodity approach to partnership approach, crossing the human relations besides
maintaining sound industrial relations although hitherto the managers are not accustomed
to deal with the workers accordingly. Training in human relations is necessary to deal
with human problems.

Change in the job assignment: Training is also necessary when the existing employee is
promoted to the higher level in the organization and when there is some new job or
occupation due to transfer. Training is also necessary to equip employees with advanced
displaces, techniques or technology. Training also becomes essential when an
organization has plans for modernization.

The need for training also arises to:


Increased Productivity.
Improved quality of the product/service.
Help a company to fulfill its future personnel needs.
Improved organizational climate.
Improved health and safety.
Prevent obsolescence.

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


Effect personal growth.
Minimize the resistance to change and
To act as mentor.

Evolution of Training
William James of Harvard University estimated that employees could retain their jobs by
working at a mere 20-30 percent of their potential. His research led him to believe that if
these same employees were properly motivated, they could work at 80-90% of their
capabilities. Behavioral science concepts like motivation and enhanced productivity
could well be used for such improvements in employee output. Training could be one of
the means used to achieve such improvements through the effective and efficient use of
learning resources.

Training and development has been considered an integral part of any organization
since the industrial revolution era. From training imparted to improve mass production to
now training employees on soft skills and attitudinal change, training industry has come a
long way today.

Organization and individual should develop and progress simultaneously for the their
survival and attainment of mutual goals. So, every modern management has to develop
the organization through human resource development. Employee training is the most
important sub-system of human resources development. Training is a specialized function
and one of the fundamental operative functions for human resources management.

The market is unofficially estimated to be anywhere between Rs 3000 crores and Rs


6000 crores. What is surprising is that the Indian companies. Perception regarding
corporate training seems to have undergone a sea-change in the past two years, with most
companies realizing it to be an integral part of enhancing productivity of its personnel.
While MNC.s with their global standards of training are the harbingers of corporate
training culture in India, the bug seems to have bitten most companies aiming at
increasing their efficiency.

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


According to Ms Pallavi Jha, Managing Director, Walchand Capital and Dale Carnegi
Training India, "The Indian training industry is estimated at approximately Rs 3,000
crores per annum.

The NFO study states that over a third of this is in the area of behavior and soft skills
development. With the exponential boom in the services sector and the emergence of a
full-fledged consumer-driven market, human resources have become the key assets,
which organizations cannot ignore. With soft skills training gaining so much momentum,
its imperative to understand if it serving the right purpose or not.

The following steps must form the basis of any training activity:

Determine the training needs and objectives.


Translate them into programs that meet the needs of the selected trainees.
Evaluate the results.

There are few generalizations about training that can help the practitioner. Training
should be seen as a long term investment in human resources using the equation given
below:
Performance = ability (x) motivation

Training can have an impact on both these factors. It can heighten the skills and abilities
of the employees and their motivation by increasing their sense of commitment and
encouraging them to develop and use new skills. It is a powerful tool that can have a
major impact on both employee productivity and morale, if properly used.

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


Classification of Training
There are a number of training methods available. Use of particular methods depends on
the trainees’ viz., worker, supervisor, and manager. Basically these methods can be
classified into following broad categories:
On the job training
Off the job training
In regard to employees, other than managers (executives following are the methods of
training:

On the job training


1. Apprenticeship training.
2. Job instruction training (JIT).

Off the job training


1. Class room lectures.
2. Conferences/seminars.
3. Group discussions/case study analysis.
4. Audio visual/film shows.
5. Simulation/Computer modeling.
6. Vestibule training.
7. Programmed instructions (PI).
8. Games and Role-playing.

On The Job Training:

Apprenticeship Training:

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


Skilled worker and apprenticeship training. The duration of the course/training depends
on the nature of trade and desired skill level. Apprenticeship training is normally given to
artisans, electricians, plumbers, bricklayers and the like. The duration normally varies

from 2 to 5 years. This should not mix up with government sponsored “Apprenticeship
Training” for unemployed youth certain underdeveloped nations like India.
Apprenticeship training is carried out under the guidance and intimate supervision of a
master craftsman’s/expert worker/supervisor. During apprenticeship training period, the
trainee is paid less than that of a qualified worker.

Job Instruction Training(JIT):


During Second World War, Allied Forces experienced acute shortage of skilled craftsmen
and able supervisors. Special training programme was initiated on warfootings. Special
training. Training within industry(TWI) was one such programme. JIT was part of TWI.
JIT was intended for developing efficient supervisiors. JIT proved very effective and
extremely popular.

Off The Job Training:

Class Room Lectures:


This is the simplest form of training. This is a best form of instruction when the intention
is to convey information on rules, regulations, policies, and procedures. This form so also
suited on imparting knowledge on theory and concepts. Lecture form has limited success
when the objective is to improve the skill level of trainees. Another advantage is that it
can be used effectively even when numbers of trainees. Another advantage is that it can
be used effectively even when numbers of trainees are more. It also saves time. Major
disadvantage is that it involves passive participants of trainees and depends on ability of
teacher to a great extent.

Conferences, Seminars and Workshops:

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


This is a formal method of arranging meeting in which individuals confer to discuss
points of common interest for enriching their knowledge and skill. This is a group
activity. It encourages group discussion and participation of individuals for seeking

clarifications and offering explanatations and own experiences. It is a planned activity


with a leader/ moderator to guide the proceedings, which is focused on agreed agenda
points prefixed during planning of such conferences. There are 3 variations nearly
Directed conferences, Training conference and seminar/workshops.

Audio/Visual and film shows:


In order to improve understanding, audio-visual aids considered very useful and
sometimes inescapable to demonstrate operation of a machine or explain a process.
Audio –visual and film shows can supplement the efforts of lecturing and improve its
effectiveness.

Group Discussions and Case study analysis:


Christopher Lang dell initially introduced case study method at Harvard Law School in
1880’s. The principle used is “experience is the best teacher”. Here several empirical
studies are examined in details to find out commonalities to derive general principles.
This method has, however, limited use for workers but better use for supervisors. In case
of workers, one area of importance in this method is that of quality control.
“The case study is based upon the belief that managerial competence can best attained
through the study, contemplation and discussion of concrete cases.

Simulation/Computer Modeling:
Any training activity in which actual working environment is artificially created as near
and realistic as possible, is called simulation training. Case study analysis experimenting
exercises, game playing, computer modeling and vestibule training etc. come under this

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


category. When using computer-programming method artificially creates work
environment, we call it computer modeling.

Vestibule Training :
In vestibule training, employees are trained on the equipment they are employed, but the
training is conducted away from the place of work. For training a machine shop operator,
a vestibule or separate room is arranged for training in which all necessary equipment and
machines required in an actual machine shop are duplicated.

Programmed instruction:
Programmed instruction is a structured method of instruction aided through texts,
handouts, books, and computer aided instructions (CAI). In this case the instruction
material and information is broken down in meaningful units and arranged in a proper
sequence to form a logical method of learning package, the learning ability is tested and
evaluated in real time basis.

Retraining:
Technology is advancing at a very rapid pace. Hence obsolescence is a major problem
fixed by individual workers. Second problem faced by the workers are the introduction of
automation. Loyal workers of long service, suddenly find themselves useless to the
company. There are many instances of protests and fear by many workers in various

Phases of Training:
The various steps involved in the design and development of training programme
particularly for the employees are:

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


Identification of training needs of employees
Planning of training programme
Preparation of trainees
Implementation
Evaluation

The last stage in the training programme process is the evaluation of results this is the
main part to know the effectiveness/determines the results of the training programme.

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


Develops a sense of responsibility t the organization for being competent and
knowledgeable.

Benefits to the individual which in turn ultimately should benefit the organization:

Helps the individual in making better decisions and effective problem solving.
Through training and development, motivational variables of recognition,
achievement, growth, responsibility and advancement are internalized and
operationalised.
Aids in encouraging and achieving self-development and self-confidence.

Provides the trainee an avenue for growth and a say in his/her own future
Develops sense of growth in learning.
Helps a person develop speaking and listening skills: also writing skills when
exercises are required.
Helps eliminate fear in attempting new tasks.

IMPEDIMENTS TO EFFECTIVE TRAINING:


There are impediments which can make a training programme ineffective:
Management commitment is lacking and uneven: Most companies do not spend
money on training. Those that do tend to concentrate on managers, technicians and
professionals. The rank and file workers are ignored. This must change for as a result of

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


rapid technological change, combined with new approaches to organizational design and
production management, workers are required to learn three types of new skills:
(I) The ability to use technology.
(ii) The ability to maintain it.
(iii) The ability to diagnose system problems.
In an increasingly competitive environment, the ability to implement rapid

changes in product and technologies is often essential for economic viability.

Aggregate spending on training is inadequate: companies spend misuscule of their


revenues on training. Worse still, budget allocation to training is the first item to be cut
when a company faces financial crunch.
Educational institutions award degrees but graduates lack skills: This is the reason
why business must spend vast sums of money to train workers in basic skills.
Organizations also need to train employees in multiple skills. Managers, particularly at
the middle level, need to be retrained in team-playing skills, entrepreneurship skills,
leadership skills and customer oriented skills.
Large scale coaching of trained workers: Trained workforce is in great demand.
Unlike Germany, where local business groups pressure companies not to poach
company’s employees there is no such system in our country. Companies in our country,
however insist on employees to sign ‘bongs of tenure’ before sending them for training,
particularly before deputing them to undergo training in foreign countries. Such bonds are
not effective as the employees or the poachers are to pay the stipulated amounts as
compensation when the bounds are breached.
No help to workers displaced because of downsizing: Organizations are downsizing
and de-layering in order to trim their workforces. The govt. should set apart certain fund
from the national renewal fund for the purpose of retraining and rehabilitating displaced
workers.
Employers and B schools must develop closer ties: B schools are often seen as not
responding to labour-market demands. Business is seen as not communicating its demand
in B schools. This must change.

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


Organized labour can help: organized labour can play a positive role in imparting
training to workers. Major trade unions in our country seem to be busy in attending to
mundane issues such as bonus, wages, settlement of disputes and the like. They have little
time in imparting training to their members.

Training at imperial
Training is the most important activity and plays an important role in the development of
human resources. To put the right man at the right task with the trained personnel has
now become essential in today’s Globalized Market. No organization has a choice on
whether or not to develop employees. Therefore training has nowadays become an
important and required factor for maintaining and improving interpersonal and inter
group collaboration. Our approach to training must be to increase productivity and
profitability and secondly to initiate personal growth and development.

Objectives of the study


To analyze the training methods followed in iAi.
To put forward suggestions and recommendations in the Training methods
followed in the organization.
To analyze whether the training has reached the employees.

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


The purpose of the study is to understand the training and development programme
followed in iAi. The methodology evolves from the objectives of the project and involves
collecting primary and secondary data.

Process of training at Imperial

1. Training need and identification sheet is prepared which contains topic mentioned
above and distributed to different departments where the staff members have to fill grades
according to their requirement for the training.

2. And on the basis of requirement of training, annual training calendar is prepared.


3. Based on annual training calendar monthly calendar for each month is prepared, which
include topics on which training is to be imparted in the given month along with trainer
name, date, & timings.
4. After that an intimation sheet is prepared in which name of trainee, name of trainer,
date, timing, venue is mentioned and this intimation sheet is circulated among all the
departments to intimate them about the training.
5. On the day of training both the trainees and trainers are informed once again and
training is provided. And at the end of training session a feedback form is given to all the
trainees so that they can give there suggestion for training provided to them.
6. And last but not the least step is to evaluate the performance of trainees after providing
training to them.

The Training programme plays an important role in increasing the knowledge and skill of
an employee for doing a particular job. Training is a short term educational process and
utilizing a systematic and organized procedure by which employees learn technical
knowledge and skills for a definite purpose and then reward the employees based on the

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


performance through performance appraisal system after the training programme are
conducted. Therefore the study is completely based on the training and development
programmes conducted in iAi .

TRAINING IS REQUIRED TO ACHIEVE THE FOLLOWING:


Growth, Expansion and Modernization
To increase productivity and profitability, reduce cost and finally enhance skill
and knowledge of the employee.
To prevent obsolescence.
To help in developing a problem solving attitude.
To give people awareness of rules and procedures.
To make people more competent .
To make personnel become committed to their job resulting in pro activeness.
To make people trust each other more.

KEY ASPECTS OF HRD TRAINING IN iAi


 Learning and Development
 Leadership, Management Training
 Setting training and learning at the right level
 Training Needs Analysis (TNA)
 Train the Trainer

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


Research Methodology
Research methodology is considered as the nerve of the project. Without a proper well-
organized research plan, it is impossible to complete the project and reach to any
conclusion. The project was based on the survey plan. The main objective of survey was
to collect appropriate data, which work as a base for drawing conclusion and getting
result.
Therefore, research methodology is the way to systematically solve the research
problem. Research methodology not only talks of the methods but also logic behind the
methods used in the context of a research study and it explains why a particular method
has been used in the preference of the other methods.

Research Objective
1) To analyze the training method used in iAi.
2) To put forward suggestions and recommendations in the Training methods
followed in the organization.
3) To analyze whether the training has reached the employees.

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


Research design is important primarily because of the increased complexity in the market
as well as marketing approaches available to the researchers. In fact, it is the key to the
evolution of successful marketing strategies and programmers. A research design
specifies the methods and procedures for conducting a particular study. According to
Kerlinger, “Research Design is a plan, conceptual structure, and strategy of investigation
conceived as to obtain answers to research questions and to control variance.

Descriptive Research

The type of research adopted for study is descriptive. Descriptive studies are undertaken
in many circumstances when the researches is interested to know the characteristic of
certain group such as age, sex, education level, occupation or income. A descriptive study
may be necessary in cases when a researcher is interested in knowing the proportion of
people in a given population who have in particular manner, making projections of a
certain thing, or determining the relationship between two or more variables. The
objective of such study is to answer the “who, what, when, where and how” of the subject
under investigation. There is a general feeling that descriptive studies are factual and very
simple. This is not necessarily true. Descriptive study can be complex, demanding a high
degree of scientific skill on part of the researcher.

Descriptive studies are well structured. An exploratory study needs to be flexible in its
approach, but a descriptive study in contrast tends to be rigid and its approach cannot be
changed every now and then. It is therefore necessary, the researcher give sufficient
thought to framing research.
Questions and deciding the types of data to be collected and the procedure to be used in
this purpose.

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


Descriptive studies can be divided into two broad categories: Cross Sectional and
Longitudinal Sectional. A cross sectional study is concerned with a sample of elements
from a given population. Thus, it may deal with household, dealers, retail stores, or other
entities. Data on a number of characteristics from sample elements are collected and
analyzed. Cross sectional studies are of two types: Field study and Survey. Although the
distinction between them is not clear- cut, there are some practical differences, which
need different techniques and skills. Field studies are ex-post-factor scientific inquiries
that aim at finding the relations and interrelations among variables in a real setting. Such
studies are done in live situations like communities, schools, factories, and organizations.

Another type of cross sectional study is survey result, which has been taken by me. A
major strength of survey research is its wide scope. Detail information can be obtained
from a sample of large population .Besides; it is economical as more information can be
collected per unit of cost. In addition, it is obvious that a sample survey needs less time
than a census inquiry. Descriptive research includes survey and fact finding enquiries of
different kinds of the major purpose. Descriptive research is description of the state of
affairs, as it exists at present. The main characteristic of this method is that the researcher
has no control over the variables; he can only report what has happened or what is
happening. The methods of research utilized in descriptive research are survey methods
of all kinds including comparative and co relational methods. The reason for using such
needs to be flexile in its approach, but a descriptive study in contrast tends to be rigid and
its approach cannot be changed ever now and then.

Data collection methods


After the research problem, we have to identify and select which type of data is to
research. At this stage; we have to organize a field survey to collect the data. One of the
important tools for conducting research is the availability of necessary and useful data.

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


Primary data: For primary data collection, we have to plan the following four
important aspects.
 Sampling
 Research Instrument

Questionnaires
This is the most popular tool for the data collection. A questionnaire contains question
that the researcher wishes to ask his respondents which is always guided by the objective
of the survey.

Sampling Methodology
It refers to the definite plan adopted by the research for obtaining the data from the
respondents; the technique adopted here is to gather data from sampling unit,
questionnaire method .

Sample unit
The respondents were Linemen, Assistant Executives /Junior Executives, Senior
Assistants /Assistant etc.

Secondary Data: Data were collected from documents, records, Internet, text books
and company past records etc.

Data analysis and interpretation

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


To analyze the project report the pie chart and bar chart is used.

Pie chart
This is very useful diagram to represent data, which are divided into a number of
categories. This diagram consists of a circle of divided into a number of sectors, which
are proportional to the values they represent. The total value is represented by the full
create. The diagram bar chart can make comparison among the various components or
between a part and a whole of data.

Bar chart
This is another way of representing data graphically. As the name implies, it consist of a
number of whispered bar, which originate from a common base line and are equal widths.
The lengths of the bards are proportional to the value they represent.

Preparation of report

Percentage was calculated for each factor as per the below shown formula

FORMULATION OF HYPOTHESIS
The hypothesis has been to analyze the effectiveness of training programme conducted in
the company i.e. It analyzes the effective training methods and techniques adopted to
achieve the organizational goals.

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


Tools used for testing of hypothesis

A Hypothesis is the tentative explanatation for something. It frequently attempts to


answer the questions “How” and “Why” at one level, hypothesis simply suggests how
particular variable is related.
At a more theoretical level hypothesis may offer a reason for the way that particular
variable was selected generally speaking, it is a logically organized set of proposition
which serves to define the events describe the relationships among these events and
explains the occurrence of these events.

By hypothesis we mean a statement hypothesis testing deals with a procedure, which


aspects or rejects the hypothesis.
The two hypothesis are :

NULL HYPOTHESIS
It states there is no significance difference between the sample value and population
value. This means that the observe difference is clue to the random fluctuations Ho
denotes the null hypothesis.

ALTERNATIVE HYPOTHESIS
In case the null is rejected, we should have the alternate hypothesis to accept alternative
hypothesis denoted accordingly.

Types of Errors
While testing hypothesis, there are four possible combinations between the population
value and sample value. The four combinations are:
Hypothesis is true & test accepts it.

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


Hypothesis is true & test rejects it. (Type 1 error)
Hypothesis is false & test accepts it. (Type 2 error)
Hypothesis is false & test rejects it.

Level of significance
It is nothing but the probability of rejecting a true hypothesis and denoted by α.
1-α gives the level of confidence of the experiment in taking the decision. It is always
preferable to keep the level of significance at a low percentage. It means that we should
not reject a true hypothesis. β represents the risk of accepting a false hypothesis 1-β is
called the power of the test.

Acceptance region
This represents the region with in which the calculated of the statistics must lie to accept
the null hypothesis. If calculated value lies in this region then the null hypothesis will be
rejected.

Hypothesis testing procedure :


1. Set up a null hypothesis denoted by Ho this means there is no significant difference
between sample value and population value. In case if Ho is rejected we must have an
alternative hypothesis.
2. Select the level of significance.
3. Select an appropriate distribution for the test, which is known as test hypothesis the
distribution generally used are normal distribution students ‘t’ distribution, Fisher ‘F’
distribution or chi-square Ψ distribution.
4. Calculate the necessary values from the given data for the test.
5. Make conclusion from testing. If calculated value is less than the tabulated value,
else Ha is accepted and Ho is rejected.

Test of Hypothesis
Whether the training and development activities has reached the employees or not.
Efforts are made in the study for proving the following hypothesis.

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


Information:
Sample size : 40
Number of respondents for “YES” : 38
Number of respondents for “NO” : 2

Assumptions:
The test is at 5% level of significance.
It is assumed that out of total population 5% of the respondents will respond negatively.
Such a test for attributes are one tailed on the basis of the above assumptions

Null hypothesis = Ho = Training and development activities has not reached the
employees effectively.
Alternative hypothesis = Ha = Training and development activities has reached the
employees effectively.

Test statistic Zcal = │p-P│


√ PQ∕ n
when n = sample size
p = Population proportion
P = sample proportion
Q = Significance

Given:
p = 38/40 = 0.92
P = 95% = 0.95
Q = 1-P = 1-0.95 = 0.05
n = 40
Therfore,

Zcal = │p-P│

DAV INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT FARIDABAD


= √PQ/n

= √0.95×0.05/40
= 0.03
Zcal = │0.92-0.95│
0.03
Ztab = 1.96
Conclusion
Zcal < Ztab
Therefore , we can infer that training and development activities has reached the
employees effectively.
