chemical industries (of the late nineteenth century) in the upper Rhine Valley
of Switzerland. These industries were producing dye stuffs. When dye stuffs
were found to have antiseptic properties, a number of these industries turned
into pharmaceutical industries e.g. Hoffman-La Roche, Sandoz, Ciba-Geigy,
etc.
Another origin is the drug store. The first known drug store was opened by
Arabian Pharmacists in Baghdad, and many more soon began operating
throughout the Islamic world and Europe. By the 19th century, many of the
drug stores in Europe and North America had developed into larger
pharmaceutical companies. Most of today's major pharmaceutical companies
were founded in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Some of the best pharmaceutical industries spread all over the world are
Novartis, Pfizer, Bayer, Glaxo Smith Kline, Johnson and Johnson, Merck &
Co., Abbott Laboratories, Procter & Gamble, Wyeth , Dr.Reddy‟s, Ranbaxy,
etc.

World Market
Facing intense competition, dwindling margin and growth slowdown, the world
pharmaceutical industry spares no effort to reduce manufacturing cost and
seek new growing markets. With huge population, fast growing economy and
dynamic pharmaceutical industry, Asia becomes the ideal place for pharma
manufacturing. India, Singapore and China are main forces reshaping world
pharmaceutical manufacturing landscape.
2
Indian Market
Evidence of this is the fact that India is predicted to enter the big league of the
top 10 pharmaceutical markets in the world. Currently, India ranks 14th in
terms of value and 3rd in terms of volume. It is obvious then, that the Indian
pharmaceutical industry is a contributor to the country's growth and
development. As India offers a perfect combination of skills, technology and
economy, many foreign companies have started outsourcing their
manufacturing departments to India. Also, some Indian companies have
joined hands with MNCs for research and development (R & D) in projects like
cancer, AIDS, etc. India's IT sector plays a pivotal role in enticing MNCs to
outsource research and drug discovery contracts.
This road to success was led by the system of product patents introduced on
1st January, 2005. Due to this, India has become a worldwide exporter of high
quality generic drugs. India exports to 65 countries with US as its biggest
market. According to the National Pharmaceuticals Policy for 2006, the
industry's export was worth US 3.75 billion dollars and growing at a compound
annual rate of 22.7%.
In spite of this success story, the Indian pharmaceutical business has room
for improvement. To utilize their capacity to the fullest, the India
pharmaceutical industry is seeking untapped global as well as local markets.
In India, one of the goals of the Indian pharmaceutical industry is to make
3
drugs easily accessible in the local markets. Also, the demand for
sophisticated and innovative medicines has increased as the common man
lives the western lifestyle.

Growth of the Industry
Global pharmaceutical sales are estimated to reach $880 billion for 2011, an
increase of between 5% to 7% compared to 2010.

4. Introduction of the study
11
When individuals are in flow state little conscious control is necessary for their
actions.
The links in chain are as follows; profit & growth are stimulated primarily by
customer loyalty. Loyalty is a direct result of customer‟s satisfaction.
Satisfaction is largely influenced by the services provided to customers.
Satisfied, loyal & productive employees create value. Employee satisfaction in
turn results primarily from high quality support services & policies that enable
employees to deliver results to customers.
12
According to BW-HR global survey 34% of the employees in India are fully
engaged and 13 % disengaged and as many as 29 % are almost engaged.
According to the Gallup the Consulting organization there are there are
different types of people:-
13
not-engaged tend to feel their contributions are being overlooked, and their
potential is not being tapped.
They often feel this way because they don't have productive relationships with
their managers or with their coworkers.
14
TEN C’S OF EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT
1. Connect
Leaders must actively show that they value employees. Employee-focused
initiatives such as profit-sharing and work-life balance initiatives are important.
Employee engagement is a direct reflection of how employees feel about their
relationship with the boss, and staff looks at whether organizations and
leaders walk the talk when they proclaim that, "Our employees are our most
valuable asset".
2. Communication
Company should be transparent enough & proper communication channel
should be defined, not only that any new changes took place should be
communicated and should check that miscommunication should not take
place.
3. Clarity
Leaders must communicate a clear vision and the goals for the division, unit
or team. Clarity about what the organization stands for, what it wants to
achieve.
4. Convey
Leaders clarify their expectations about employees and provide feedback on
their function in the organization. Good leaders establish processes and
procedures that help people master important tasks and achieve goals. Good
leaders work daily to improve the skills of their people and create small wins
that help the team, unit or organization perform at its best.
5. Congratulate
Surveys indicate that employees feel that they receive immediate feedback
when their performance is poor, or below expectations, but that praise for
strong performance is, unfortunately, less common. Exceptional leaders give
recognition, and they do so a lot; they coach & convey.
15
6. Contribute
People want to know that their input matters and that they're contributing to
the organization in a meaningful way. Good leaders‟ help people see and feel
how they're contributing to the organization's success and future.
7. Control
Do leaders consult with their employees with regard to their needs? Are
leaders flexible and attuned to the needs of the employees as well as the
organization? A feeling of "being in on things" and of being given opportunities
to participate in decision-making often reduces stress; it also creates trust and
a culture where people want to take ownership of problems and their
solutions.
8. Collaborate
When employees work in teams and have the trust and co-operation of their
team members, they outperform individuals and teams that lack good
relationships. Great leaders are team-builders; they create an environment
that fosters trust and collaboration. Being cared about by colleagues is also a
strong predictor of employee engagement. So, leaders must rally individuals
to collaborate on organizational and departmental goals.
9. Cherish
employees should strive to maintain a company's reputation and demonstrate
high ethical standards and they really care and look after the company.
10. Confidence
16
4.2 Background of the Study
When employees are effectively & positively engaged with their organization
they form an emotional connection with company. This impacts their attitude
towards the company‟s client & there by improves customer satisfaction &
service levels.
17
4.3 Problem Statement and Importance of the Study
Problem statement
18
As organizations globalize and become more dependent on technology in
a virtual working environment, there is a greater need to connect and
engage with employees to provide them with an organizational „identity.‟
Engaged employees are always ready to put extra effort when the
organization needs it.
The engaged employees also project a positive image to new recruits &
this motivates the latter to perform better & assimilates them in the offices
culture.

5.3 Data Collection Method
“Survey” as we know jolly well, is the keyword around which the whole
magic of my project revolves, as the data which this study produced is primary
in nature & those first hand data is collected by the following method which I
undertook while doing survey.
The first & foremost thing that I did was formulating a well framed
Questionnaire.
The questionnaire included all multiple choice questions and was designed
on four points Likert Scale where 1 represented Low Extent and 5
represented High Extent.
The next step was to circulate the questionnaire to the employees, based
on Simple Random Sampling, to the managerial staff.
The score of individual items are summated to produce a total score for
the respondent.
After the data was collected, proper editing has been done so as to screen
out any irrelevant information. After editing all the information was
arranged in tabulated form & results was calculated by using frequency /
percentage method & for better representation of the results in more
appropriate manner charts & graphs have been used whenever possible.

Findings from Analysis
Firstly It can be concluded by this graph where all the ten “c “has the no of
favorable employee‟s opinion in respective factor.
Graph No 7.1
65
The study indicates that 82.5 % employees cherish the company while
14 % employees are neutral and 3.25 % of employees are somewhat
disagree that means they are not cherish the organization.
The study also indicate that only 63.25 % employees are satisfied with the
“ Convey “ while 33.75 % employees are neutral and 3 % are somewhat
disagree to the questions that prove that they are not satisfied and they
are not engaged also which is not consider as healthy condition for
company.
“ clarity “ of roles, work , goals etc are also very required at workplace
while here only 64.5 % employees only have clarity while 10.50%
employees are neutral which is not good condition for organization.
The study also indicate that only 45.75 % employees are agreed with the
“Congratulate “ i.e. the way organization appreciate & recognize and
24.50 % employees are neutral and 4.50 % employees are somewhat dis
agree which again indicate employee engagement is less due this factor.
66
In the next factor “ Collaborate “ 78.5 % employees are agreed that
means they are satisfied with the co-operation level that exist in an
organization while 21.5 % employees are natural that means they are not
that much engaged which need to take care .
The study indicate that 83.25 % employees are satisfied with “ Control “
the employee have & the way organization use it as a tool while 15.50 %
employees are only disagreed that means somewhat dissatisfied and
that‟s why not that much engaged in an organization.
The last but important factor “confidence” shows that 84.5 % employees
are in favor that means they are engaged in an organization while 15.5%
employees are not agreed and they are not agreed.
67
This study has to rely upon the information given by respondents, which
may not be fully true.
It is only for short period of time.
Because of the fear of management all the employees cannot give right
answer.
High expectation of employee for their job from their company will lead to
create wrong finding.
The sample size is small; perhaps a large one could have brought more
accurate results.
This is the March ending so everybody is busy in audit work which was the
bottleneck to my project.
The present study is based on primary data. The possibility of personal
bias can‟t be ruled out.
68
Suggestions
Employees are always contribute high when they have the freedom or
opportunity to do what they can do best every day so few employees feel
they don‟t have that so organization should give reasonable level of
opportunity to the employees.
Proper training should be given to all the Leaders so that they can convey
all necessary information to next level employees like any change in
method, their expectation from the employee and how they give feedback
to their employees.
Playing the blind game is like the going there where we don‟t know so
organization should not do this here so many employees are not clear
about their roles and important of it so organization should arranged the
induction programme in a way that from the day one everybody is clear
about it.
69
Employees at all levels should be involved in the development,
implementation & review of recognization programmes & practices.
Conduct companywide contest for any new ideas like how to improve
operational efficiency. Winners can received monetary rewards equal to a
percentage of the saving / benefits generated.

I had completed my project work on “Employee Engagement” at
Lupin Ltd, Ankleshwar. From my study, I understood the impact of employee
engagement on employee‟s performance, work & productivity and also the
need of employee engagement within the organization. I also came to know
that employee engagement is a key driver to corporate success.
In nutshell I can say that the conclusion which I have drawn once and again
about the employee engagement are purely empirical and are not influenced
in the least by the vagaries of my perception.
This project report is the pleasant experience for me. It has made me aware
of the practical world. This project has helped to relate my theoretical
knowledge with practical application. It has also aid me in improving my
theoretical knowledge so I am thankful to Management of Lupin Ltd,
Ankleshwar and my all Respected Guides for giving me such a golden
opportunity.
At last, I can say that if management looks in to the Suggestions that have
mentioned above, I personally feel that it would bring changes in the
organization for the better prospects and I would like to thank all the
employees of an organization that have helped me in completion of my project
successfully .
