They provide healthy environment.

Strategy, which meets the requirements of the health and safety laws applicable in the countries

deal with residual risks. This approach also minimizes threats to the business, protecting our
shareholders’ interests; continuously improve our performance by adapting processes, work
practices and systems as a result of monitoring safety performance and analyzing accidents or
occupational health problems.

o Employee involvement:
Employees at all levels are employed to assume ownership of workplace safety. Behavior based
safety programs are being implemented in all operational sites (including factories and Distribution
centers). Safety observations made by those most concerned are gathered and analyzed and measures
to eliminate or manage risks are implemented.

Nestle recognizes the critical role of our people to ensure a safe and healthy work environment. All
Nestle managers are accountable for managing workplace health and safety with strong leadership
They build a proactive safety culture by actively engaging our employees and other relevant
stakeholders to drive implementation of all elements of our Nestle Operational Safety, Health and

o Implementation:

Nestle implements this policy through the Nestle Operational Safety, Health and Risk
management Strategy to ensure a consistent and coherent standard worldwide. However, the specific
methods of managing health and safety at work depend on local social norms, practices and
regulations. Local management is accountable to implement an adapted safety organization to

five steps which can be key success for the training process of the company, those cores five stages
are:

o Training processes:
After all the assessment they found that if they provide some facilities they the staffs could be
very efficient and those facilities are:

 On-the job training:


It’s a training which is operated at the sight of the company or training is carried out the
working is running, it is really a effective process played by various well leading company
and this system also played by the Nestle, but it is also a unavoidable risk because all new
staffs can make a mistake or cause a loss to the company, therefore company plays that
system when it’s right to do so. It is effective, when a major leveled employee do a mistake
by mistakenly then, for making an improvement Nestle company plays that system.

and identify the efficiency and effectiveness of their work ability.
 Off-the job training:
This process is also an effective training for internal staffs but it can be painful and fluctuate
staff’s confidence and motivation, because it is quiet time consuming and costly which bared
by company, but in may stages of the efficiency of a company or to make an efficient staff
company may play this training. Where any temporary staff may work for the company with
or without wages and this is actually not a job but binding for the staff to be full time staff,
which is also depends on the performance of the staff.
 Apprenticeship training:
It is a process by which people become skilled worked through a combination of classroom
instruction and on the job training . it is widely used to train individuals for many
occupations. It traditionally involves having the learner apprentice study under the tutelage of
a master craftsperson.
 Computer based training:
Now a day all most all companies provide training to their staffs by computers and projectors,
this system is so much effective and time saving device. By this, companies can express their
plans, training, what to do and what is restricted by company and other authorities; it is a total
pack of direct communication and training process.
 Other training methods:
Training and development some employees may have skills from their education or from
previous jobs and therefore need little additional training. Others will need extensive training
how much and kind of training is needed will depend on the type of job involved and the
amount of training that has already been given through education and the coerces and the
natural skills of the person employed. This section will be looking primarily at the type of
training provided by organization to their employee. There is various type of training and
those types are:
 Case study involving role play or discussion.
 Use of internal and external communication system.
 Interactive video where the trainee is required to respond- depending upon the
response. The video will follow different sequence.

o The Nestle Human Resource Policy:


The Nestle Human Resource policy guidelines which constitute a sound basis for efficient and
effective HR Management in the Nestle Group around the world. They are in essence flexible and
dynamic adjustment to a variety of Circumstances. Therefore its implementation will be inspired by
sound judgment, compliance with local market laws and common sense, taking into accounts the
specific context. As Nestle is operating on a worldwide basis, it is essential that local legislation and
practices be respected everywhere. The Nestle Management and Leadership Principles include the
guidelines inspiring all the Nestle employees in their action and in their dealings with others. The
Corporate Business Principles refer to all the basic principles which Nestle endorses and subscribes
to on a worldwide basis. Both these documents are the pillars on which the present policy has been
built

o Shared responsibilities:
HR managers and their staff are there to provide professional support in handling people matters.
Their prime responsibility is to contribute actively to the quality of HR management throughout the
organization by proposing adequate policies. Acting as business partners, the HR manager advises
and offers solutions which results in positive impact on the organization’s effectiveness. Together
they act as co-responsible partners for all HR matters. This partnership is the key for efficiency in
people management. The communication skills of the HR staff must be appropriate to deal with all
human relations issues. They gain their credibility not only from their professional contribution but
also through the care and the excellence of their communication skills.

Employment Activities at Nestle:


The Corporate Business Principles outline the Company’s commitment to fully endorse and to
respect a series of principles and international conventions concerning employee’s rights, the
protection of children against child labor and other important issues.

These principles are to be respected everywhere and under all circumstances. The management
will implement the necessary processes to ensure that these principles are enforced at all levels. Also
their main suppliers and providers of out sourced services should be informed of the Corporate
Business Principles and should comply with those. In the same way that no discrimination for reason
of origin, nationality, religion, race, Gender or age will be tolerated when joining Nestle, no such
discrimination will be tolerated towards Nestlé’s employees. Furthermore, any form of harassment,
moral or sexual, will not only be prohibited but actively tracked and eliminated. Internal Rules and
regulations will explicitly deal with discrimination and harassment issues so as to obtain the best
possible prevention. Nestle considers that it is not enough to avoid discrimination or harassment. It is
essential to build a relationship based on trust and respect of employees at all levels. Therefore, it is
indispensable for each manager to know how her/his employees feel in their work.

In larger units it may be necessary to organize such feedback on a regular basis, using internal
surveys or other valuable approaches. Nestle favors a policy of long-term employment. Whenever,
an operation activity cannot be maintained within the Nestle sphere, reasonable steps will be
undertaken to avoid overall loss of employment by identifying an external Business willing to take
over activity from Nestle, whenever this is possible.
o Expectation of Employees:
First, employees’ actions should be in line with the company’s goals, Paul Broeckx Former Senior Vice
President of Nestlé’s Corporate Human Resources division Robert Hooijberg IMD Professor of Organizational
Behavior not their supervisors’ expectations. Furthermore, possessing experience is no longer enough:
employees must convert that experience into meaningful insight and action. Employees must also be
cooperative, not competitive. Finally, they need to take the initiative and not be passive. Organizations
therefore need to put the structures and systems into place that emphasize these four qualities and
eliminate those that encourage the limitations with the pyramidal model. Top management at Nestlé
recognized the need to change its structures and systems. It approved the design and implementation of the
“Nestlé on the Move” five-part program, described below. It aimed to change the mindset of its employees
and move toward a performance culture. The efforts mostly took place simultaneously
Different types of motivation are frequently described as being either extrinsic or intrinsic.
Extrinsic motivations are those that arise from outside of the individual and often involve
rewards such as trophies, money, social recognition or praise. Intrinsic motivations are those that
arise from within the individual, such as doing a complicated cross-word puzzle purely for the
personal gratification of solving a problem.
Internal and external factors that stimulate desire and energy in people to be continually
interested in and committed to a job, role, or subject, and to exert persistent effort in attaining a
goal.
“The only way to get people to like working hard is to motivate them. Today, people must
understand why they’re working hard. Every individual in an organization is motivated by
something different.

o Knowledge transfer
Knowledge Transfer is about making the very best out of huge intellectual assets and resources and
ensuring that this information is shared with partners and within communities. The research and
business models that have proved of great success within Nestle have been taken on into
communities and used to enable and their other businesses and initiatives. The most recent example
of this is the participation of Nestle in donating funds for the drilling of deep wells and the
installation of 22 community water supplies to provide clean and safe water for 40,000 people. The
funds are also be used to train community structures on maintaining the pumps and improve overall
hygiene practices.
PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF EMPLYEES:
o Learning
Learning is part of the Company culture. Each employee, at all levels, is conscious of the need to
upgrade continuously her/his knowledge and skills. The willingness to learn is therefore a non-
negotiable condition to be employed by Nestle. First and foremost, training is done on-the-job.
Guiding and coaching is part of the responsibility of each manager and it is crucial to make each one
progress in her/his position. When formal training programs are organized they should be purpose
oriented and designed to improve relevant skills and competencies. Therefore they are proposed in
the framework of individual development programs.

o Industrial relations
Nestle upholds the freedom of association of its employees and the effective recognition of the right
to collective bargaining. Nestle wishes, also through its relationship with unions and other
representative associations, to sustain the long-term development of the Company, both to the
benefit of the employees and of the Company, by maintaining a level of competitiveness adapted to
its economic environment. Industrial relations are a clear responsibility of local management and
will be handled at the appropriate level:

i. First at site level


(Factories, warehouse)
ii. Secondly at regional or national level.

o Unions:
According to local law and practice. Nestle
will ensure that direct and frequent
communication is established with its
employees, both union members and non-
members. Relations with unions will be
established under strict observation of
national law, local practices as they’ll as those
international recommendations to which
Nestle has adhered to on a voluntary basis as
stated in the Corporate Business Principles. Contacts with union delegates should create a further
opportunity to provide information allowing their members and other representative associations to
acquire a full understanding of the business activities and the goals of Nestle.

In dealings with unions, it will be ensured that management prerogatives be properly maintained.
The fact that Nestle is more people and product than systems oriented is reflected in the way HR is
functioning and is organized. Processes and systems as they’ll as professional HR tools are there to
support HR management but never to the detriment of the human dimension. The human perspective
should be present at all times and under all circumstances.

o Role of HR manager:
The HR manager should not only have the skills and competencies from a purely professional
standpoint but also have the charisma and the credibility to be a trustworthy partner to her/his
colleagues. Whereas the HR function should indeed provide flawless administrative support, its main
role is to add value to the business and to play a proactive role in every situation where HR action is
required. Specific HR KPI’s are useful in assessing the performance of an HR unit. However, it
should be kept in mind that the HR contribution aims in the first place at optimizing the overall
company performance through improving people performance. With the evidence that the human
capital is of increasing importance, HR plays indeed a pivotal role in the conception and
implementation of the people strategies that impact financial results and the organization’s overall
reputation and effectiveness.
o Performance Management at Nestle:
The function of performance management is to ensure the fulfillment of goals in an effective and
efficient manner. Moreover, it watches performance of organization and process of production,
employees etc.
 Line managers and HR assess formally once in a year and get feedback.
 Subordinate managers can interrogate for an unfair evaluation.
 The HR department has enlisted specific key performance indicators.
 Remuneration structure and promotion criteria consider individual performance. HR staff
must help the management in elaborating training programs. Sufficient training programs are
developed at the level of every working company that capitalizes on the availability of local
regional or global resources of the group.
 Some training programs improve the language skills of the employees. These programs also
try to consolidate corporate cohesion as well as to promote networking throughout the group.
They develop and share best practices of the different management disciplines practiced in
the group.
 E-learning programs are alternative to formal training programs.

o Competency profile mapping:

 Competencies are accumulated by totalizing success factors important for obtaining good
results in a particular job or in a particular company at nestle. Success factors are made up of
knowledge, skills and attributes that are stated in case of particular behaviors and are
exhibited by efficient performers in those works.
 Attributes include personal characteristics, features, motives, values or ways of thinking
affecting an individual’s behavior:
 Competencies in organization can be divided into two categories-
1. Personal functioning competencies that include broad success factors untied to a
specific work function or industry. These competencies often notice leadership or
emotional intelligence behavior.
2. Functional/Technical competencies involve specific success factors within a given
work function at nestle.

o Critical Analysis of HR Performance:

 The performance of an organization must be analyzed for the development. This analysis
makes revaluation of existing strategy possible and easy to understand the faults so that
organization can rectify them at once.
 Recruitment, training and development of employee’s caliber have been done with high
standards.
 HR Management provides best working conditions with suitable growth opportunities.
 Employees must maintain rules and regulation of the country.
It is clear that Nestle emphasizes on personal achievement and the pay structure HR has
planned for its employees and the company also mixes practices like Job Enrichment and Job
enlargement, to motivate employees and to break the monotony of their Job tasks. An example of
Job enlargement is the correspondent who acts both in sales and brand management department.
o The Nestle Spirit
You could be forgiven for expecting to see a mission statement here, summing up our beliefs and
principles in a few slick phrases. But that's not the approach they take. Nestle is not like other
companies. They have a unique set of values and guiding principles that have been built up over
time. To try to summarize them in a sentence or two would make them meaningless.

 To engender the unique spirit that permeates the entire Nestle Group:
 They believe in people, rather than systems.
 They are committed to creating value for our shareholders, but they will not favor short-term
profits at the expense of long-term business development.
 They are as decentralized as our basic policy and strategy decisions will allow.
 They are committed to continuous improvement rather than dramatic, one-off changes Above
all, they are pragmatic and not dogmatic
 If these are values that strike a chord with you, spare a few minutes to read through the
questions below. If you can tell them all with 'yes', they'd like to hear from you.

o Look forward for change:


Nestle is proud of its traditions and heritage. But that doesn't mean they are stuck in the past. To
keep us ahead in the ever-changing food industry, they are constantly driving forward the boundaries
of our industry. Our people must be:

 Creative
 Excited by the future
 Flexible

o Open minded and ready to learn - every day of your career


They are committed to the continual training and personal development of our people. A world of
opportunities quite literally awaits those who are prepared to:

 Learn something new every day


 Adapt to new environments
 Develop multi- lingual skills
o Explore new countries and adopt new cultures
Nestle has been an international company since its very beginning. Food is intrinsically linked with
local eating and social habits, and Nestle endeavors to integrate itself as much as possible into the
cultures and traditions of the countries where it operates. To deliver products that meet the needs of
individual consumers, they need people who:

 Respect other cultures


 Embrace diversity
 Never discriminate on any basis
o Considering people as Asset:
Many other companies say that people are their most precious asset. They know that what makes our
company unique is our staff: the people who share our beliefs and principles and who work
constantly to keep Nestle in its leadership position. Nestle is not a faceless company selling to
faceless consumers. It is a human company providing response to individual human needs the world
over.

o Human Rights
Nestle fully supports the United Nations Global Compact’s two guiding principles on human rights.
Nestle therefore: Supports and respects the protection of international human rights within its sphere
of influence

o Child Labor
It is generally acknowledged that the causes of child labor are complex and include poverty,
differing stages of economic development, social values and cultural circumstances. Nestle believes
policy development must take into account the social and legal situation of individual countries.
Action to eliminate child labor must be guided by the best interests of the child, as ill-considered
policies and commercial measures can make the situation worse for children.

o Protection of the Environment


Since its early days Nestle has been committed to environmentally sound business practices
throughout the world and continues to make substantial environmental investments. In this way
Nestle contributes to sustainable development by meeting the needs of the present without
compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. The Nestle Policy on the
Environment underlines this commitment. Nestle also adheres to the International Chamber of
Commerce (ICC) Business Charter for Sustainable Development. This Charter requires the
establishment of policies, programs and practices for conducting operations in an environmentally
sound manner.
o Social Responsibility
They support sustainable agricultural and dairy farming practices, including environmental
protection. When it comes to production, all factories try to maximize eco-efficiency, i.e. increase
production while minimizing resource consumption, waste and emissions. Factories are equipped
with complete testing and monitoring facilities for waste and air emissions. To eliminate air
pollution, they have stopped using heavy fuel oil in our factories, which are now run on clean natural
gas. This has reduced emissions into the atmosphere to they’ll below the legal limits. Nestle
Sheikhupura & Kabirwala factories have elaborate water treatment systems to prevent wastewater
from polluting the environment.

Natural gas incinerators at Sheikhupura & Kabirwala factories are used to safely dispose of material
that cannot be recycled & dumped. Factories have environment committees to manage routine
environment issues and review performance. Environmental impact assessment is done in advance
for every new project and measures are adopted to minimize adverse impacts on the environment.
Our employees regularly undergo training to inculcate awareness about environment-friendly
practices.

person for right job. In order to achieve this objective Nestle company give more emphasis on
