FATHER OF HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT IN INDIA:
Human resource management actually has a history dating back to the times when artisans and
craftsmen would enlist the aid of another to discuss ways to manage their laborers. However
modern human resource management has its roots in the National cash register company. John
Patterson, the president of the company, formed a personnel department of the company, formed
a personnel department to manage the grief of workers after a bitter union strike in 1901.
It’s Mr. Udai Pareek, who was a person in late 1960’s at IIMA. Human resource management
came in India through his efforts and L&T Corporation in India. Before that no company in India
used to have Human Resource practices. He is world renowned personality.
India is widely recognized as one of the most exciting emerging economics in the world. Besides
becoming a global hub of outsourcing, Indian firms are spreading their wings globally through
merger and acquisition. During the first four months of 1997, Indian companies have bought 34
foreign companies for about U.S $ 11 billion. This impressive development has been due to
growth in inputs (capital and labor) as well as factor productivity. By the year 2020, Indian is
expected to add about 250 million to its labour pool at the rate of about 18 million a year, which
is more than the entire labour force of Germany. This so called “demographic dividend” has
drawn a new interest in the Human resource concept and practices in India.
VALUE OF CONTEXT OF HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT IN
INDIA:
The management Ideologies in India dates back at least four centuries. Arthashastra written by
celebrated Indian scholar- practices Chanakya had three key areas of exploration
Public policy
Administration and utilization of people
Taxation and accounting principles
Parallel to such pragmatic formulations, a deep rooted value system, drawn from the early
Aryan thinking called Vedanta, deeply influenced the societal and institutional values in India.
Overall, Indian collective culture had an interesting individualistic core while the civilization
values of duty to family, group and society was also very important while Vedanta ideas
nurtured an inner private sphere of individualism.
WELFARE: Welfare is nothing but the benefits provided to the employees other than wage.
The term welfare suggests many ideas and meanings such as well being, health, happiness,
prosperity, and development of human resource. The concept of welfare can be approached from
various angles. Welfare has been described as a total concept. It is desirable state of existence
involving physical, mental, moral, and emotional wellbeing. All these four elements constitute
the structure of welfare on which its totality is based.
Employee Welfare includes anything that is done for the comfort and improvement of
employees and is provided over and above the wages. Welfare helps in keeping the morale and
motivation of the employees high so as to retain the employees for longer duration. The welfare
measures need not be in monetary terms only but in any kind/forms. Employee welfare includes
monitoring of working conditions, creations of industrial harmony through infrastructure for
health, industrial relation and insurance against disease, accidents and unemployment for the
workers and their families.
Welfare enters all those activities of employer which are directed towards providing the
employees with certain facilities and services in addition to wages or salaries.
Employee Welfare are the assets and backbone of all the industries. They should provide all
welfare and safety measures to their life. The industries undertake to relieve this distress and
work for the social welfare of the mankind. This welfare approaches has become necessary due
to social problems that have emerged as a result of the industrialization in the capitalistic getting
as against these social problems many social welfare amenities have been provided for the
benefits of the employees in various industrial units. There is an increasing awareness and
recognition.
DEFINITION:
The Oxford dictionary defines employee welfare as “the efforts to make life worth living for
workmen”
According to the labor Investigation committee (1946), employee welfare means “anything
done for intellection, physical, moral and economic betterment of the workers, weather by
employees, by government or by other agencies, over and above what is laid down by law, or
what is normally expected on the part of the contracted benefits for which workers may have
bargained.”
Chambers dictionary defines welfare as a state of faring or doing well: Freedom from calamity,
enjoyment of health and prosperity.
Todd defines welfare work as “anything done for the comfort and improvement, intellectual and
social, of the employees over and above the wages pain, which is not a necessity of the industry.
Prod defines welfare as “voluntary efforts on the part of the employers to improve the existing
industrial system and the conditions of employment in their factories.
Employee Welfare includes various facilities, services and amenities provided to workers for
improving their health, efficiency, economic betterment and social status.
Welfare measures are in addition to regular wages and other economic benefits available to
workers due to legal provisions and collective bargaining.
Employee Welfare schemes are flexible and ever changing. New welfare measures are added
to the existing ones from time to time.
Welfare measures may be introduced by the employers, government, employees or by any
social or charitable agency.
The purpose of employee welfare is to bring about the development of the whole personality
of the workers to make a better workforce.
The very logical behind providing welfare schemes is to create efficient, healthy, logical and
satisfied workforce for the organization. The purpose of providing such facilities is to make their
work life better and also to raise their standard of living.

PRINCIPLES OF EMPLOYEE WELFARE
To have responsibility
To have integrity
To have accountability
To have participation
To have efficiency

To have adequate of wages
To have social responsibility of industry
EMPLOYEE INVOLVEMENT:
How to involve employees in decision making and continuous improvement activities is the
strategic aspect of involvement and can include such methods as suggestions system,
manufacturing cells, work teams, continuous improvement meetings, Kaizen (continuous
improvement) events, corrective action processes and periodic discussions with the managers.
Employee involvement is not the goal nor is it a tool, practiced in many organizations. Rather, it
is a management and leadership philosophy about how people are most enabled to contribute to
continuous improvement and the ongoing success of their work organization.
Organization provides welfare facility to their employees to keep their level high. The employee
welfare schemes can be classified into two categories.
STATUTORY SCHEMES: The Statutory schemes are those schemes that are compulsory
to provide by an organization as compliance to the laws governing employee health and
safety. This include provision provided in industrial Act like Factories Act 1948, Mines Act
1962.
NON-STATUTORY SCHEMES: Non Statutory schemes are concerned to those activities
which are undertaken voluntarily by the employers to improve the morale of the employees,
maintain harmony and improve efficiency of the employees in the production, to compete
with other organization and to retain the employees.
STATUTORY WELFARE SCHEME
DRINKING WATER: At all the working places safety and hygienic drinking water should
be provided.
FACILITIES FOR SETTLING: In every organization, especially factories suitable
sitting arrangements need to be provided.
FIRST AID APPLIANCES: First aid appliances are to be provided and should be readily
accessible so that in case of any minor and accidents initial medications can be provided to
the needed employee.
CANTEEN FACILITIES: Cafeteria or canteens are to be provided by the employer so as
to provide hygienic and nutritious food to the employees.
SPITTOONS: In every work place such as houses and store places in the dock area and
office premises spittoons are to be provided in convenient places and same are to be
maintained in a hygienic condition.
LIGHTING: Proper and sufficient light are to be provided for employees so that they can
work safely during the night shifts.
WASHING PLACES: Adequate washing places such as bathrooms, washbasins with tap,
and tap on the stand pipe are provided in the port area in the vicinity of the work place.
CHANGING ROOM: Adequate changing rooms are to be provided for workers to change
their clothes in the factory area and office premises. Adequate lockers are also provided to
their workers to keep their clothes and belongings.
NON-STATUTORY SCHEMES
The non statutory welfare measures must necessarily be elastic bearing a somewhat a
different interpretation in one country from another according to different social customs,
the degree of industrialization and the educational development of the workers. Limits
therefore, cannot be rigidly laid down for the scope of labour welfare for all industries and
for times. They have to be elastic and flexible enough to suit the existing working conditions
of the workers and to include all the essential pre-requisites of life and minimum basic
amenities.
In the report of the committee on labour welfare, 1969 the scope of labour welfare covered
such services, facilities and amenities as adequate medical facilities, rest and recreational
facilities, transport facilities, accommodation of workers employed at distance from their
homes 7 such other services, amenities and facilities including social security measures has
contribute to improvement of conditions under which they are employed. The subject of
labour welfare is thus fairly wide and limited to any one country, one region one industry or
occupation its scope has been “described by writers and institutions of different shades in
different ways and from different angles”. The lie demarcation cannot be very precise but
living conditions of the workers and their families and make their lives more meaningful in
the final analyses labour services should: “enable workers to live a richer and more
satisfactory life”.
Contribute to the productivity of labour and efficiency of the enterprise
Raise the standard of living of workers by indirectly reducing the burden on their purse.
Be in tune with harmony with similar services obtaining in a neighboring community
where an enterprise is situated.
Be based on an intelligent prediction of the future needs of industrial work and be so
designed as to offer a cushion to absorb the shock of industrialization and urbanization
on workers and
Be administratively viable and essentially development in outlook.
OBJECTIVES OF NON STATUTORY WELFARE
The benefits are of great importance to the worker, which he is unable to secure by himself. The
scheme of labour welfare may be regarded as a wise investment because this would be the
profitable returns in the form of great efficiency.
The various non statutory welfare measures provided by the employers will have immediate
impact on the health, physical and mental efficiency, alertness, morale, and overall efficiency of
the workers and there by contributing to the highest productivity.
Non statutory welfare measures unable workers to have richer and more satisfying life. It raises
the standard of living of the workers by indirectly reducing the burden on their pocket. Welfare
measures improve the physical and psychological health of the employees, which intern
enhances their efficiency and productivity.
Non statutory welfare measure promotes a sense of belongingness among the workers,
preventing them from resorting to unhealthy practices like absenteeism, labour unrest strike, etc.
Welfare work improves the relations between employees and employers. It promotes a real
change of heart and a change of outlook of the part of both the employers and employees.

Findings
&
FINDINGS:
Majority of the employees were aware of the welfare measure in BEML
Limited and they also agreed that welfare is done for the comfort and
improvement of employees.
From the study we can see that few employees expressed their dissatisfaction
towards sports because only hockey is encouraged and rest of the games such as
kabbadi football is neglected.
According to findings few employees expressed their dissatisfaction towards
the lighting facility as most of the employees were in the age group of 40-60
and they preferred comfortable to work in morning shift and none of them
expressed their feeling to work in evening shift and night shift because of dim
light.
Few of the respondents conveyed their dissatisfaction with educational facility
provided by the company because they are not happy with the scholarship
facility provided by the company and most of the employees have just heard
about it.
14 percent of the respondents are not availing library facility as the books are
very few, very old books and because of shortage of books the employees have
to wait for a long time to get that particular book.
From the study we can see that few employees are not satisfied with
reimbursement amount paid by the company for the crèche facility.
It is found that most of the employees were concerned about the reimbursement
of the school fees, medical facility, scholarship, etc because majority of the
employees were married.
It is found that the ventilation facility in the hangars 4 is not good.
Some of the other findings that the researcher was able to get after the wage
revision are as follows.
School fees reimbursement earlier it was 65 and now it is reached to225.
Conveyance allowance – For all employees earlier it was 350 and now it is 500
per month.
Loan facility- The company decided to give four wheeler loan to the senior
most employees in the organization before it was just two wheeler loan.
Uniform stitching charge- Before the wage revision it was 360 and now it is
700.
Medical reimbursement- Before it was 700 for OPD employees and now it is
1000
For non OPD employees it was 1200 and now it is 2400.
Computer grant of 10000 is given to all employees in the company.
Insurance is also raised to 4lakhs from 3lakhs.
Immediate death relief fund or funeral charge has been raised to 10000 from
5000.
Housing loan amount after wage revision is raised to 6 lakhs from 4 lakhs.
The researcher also identified that strength of employees in the second shifts
is very less in the production line when compared to the morning shift.
SUGGESSIONS:
BEML Limited can fallow National Safety Council to improve safety level,
which trains the employees through seminars and film show for safeguarding
themselves against accidents.
Training programme should be incorporated and designed according to recent
trends developed in the industrial field.
Management can encourage sports activities as many employees expressed
