CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION AND DESIGN OF THE STUDY


1.1 INTRODUCTION

Every organization requires human resources, in addition to financial and physical resources
for it to function. Three behavioral dimensions of HR are significant to the organization- (i) People
must be attracted not only, to join the organization but also to remain in it. (ii) People must perform
the tasks for which they are hired, and must do so in a dependable manner and (iii) People must go
beyond this dependable role performance and engage in some form of creative, spontaneous, and
innovative behavior at work. In other words, for an organization to be effective, it must come to grips
with the motivational problems of stimulating both- the decision to participate and the decision to
produce at work.

Employees join organizations with different needs and expectations. Their values, beliefs,
backgrounds, lifestyles, perceptions and attitudes are different. Not many organizations have
understood these and many HR experts are clear about the ways of motivating such diverse
workforce.

Most business and organizations strive to improve quality and performance of their products,
services, internal or external operations. The reasons for this can be various, depending on the goals
the business or the organization have set. Important goals could concern an effort to assure a firm
and stable ground in the market or to improve cost effectiveness. The competition between
organizations and business can be a difficult task, and make it difficult to reach higher goals and
development.

One strategy for reaching higher goals and development is motivation. Employees who are
motivated produce a higher quality of work and effectiveness which means that motivation is a key
factor for progress within an organization or business. It is important that the management in the
organizations dedicate time and interest to their employee’s individual needs and to improve their
motivation. By doing so, the quality of work and efficiency might be improved.

Management’s basic job is the effective utilization of human resources for achievements of
business goals. The utilization should be in such a way to get maximum output to the enterprise and
to develop the talent of people at work to the fullest satisfaction. Motivation implies that one person,
in organization context a manager, includes another, say an employee, to engage in action by
ensuring that a channel to satisfy those needs and aspirations becomes available to the person. In
addition to this, the strong needs in a direction that is satisfying to the latent needs in employees and
harness them in a manner that would be functional for the organization.

Motivation is the major task of every manager to motivate his subordinates or to create the
‘will to work’ among the subordinates. It should also be remembered that a worker may be
immensely capable of doing some work; nothing can be achieved if he is not willing to work. A
manager has to make appropriate use of motivation to enthuse the employees to follow them. Hence
this studies also focusing on the employee motivation among the IT Professionals’ in Coimbatore.

The process of motivation is much more complex than many people believe. People have
different needs, establish different goals to satisfy those needs and take different actions to achieve
those goals.It is wrong to assume that one approach to motivation fits all.

1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM


There are various factors that can influence a person’s level of motivation; some of these
factors are:-

 The level of pay and benefits


 The perceived fairness of promotion system within a company,
 Quality of the working conditions,
 Career development opportunities etc.
 Leadership and social relationships,
 Employee recognition Unreasonable workload3

When the employees feel that they do not get proper Rewards, Motivation and Recognition from the
management, it leads to the employees’ poor performance and grievances and working conditions or
individual’s efficiency can also be affected. When employees fail to get the satisfaction they need
from the work itself, efficiency declines. Motivated employees are great asset to any Organization. It
is because the motivation and Job satisfaction are clearly linked.

Motivation has many effects. These effects may be seen in the context of an individual’s physical
and mental health, productivity, absenteeism and turnover. Employee delight has to be managed in
more than one way. This helps in retaining and nurturing the true believers “who can deliver value to
the organization.

CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF LITERATURE

2.1 INTRODUCTION
Recruitment forms the first stage in the process which continues with selection and
ceases with the placement of the candidate. It is the next step in the procurement function,
the first being the manpower planning. Recruitment makes it possible to acquire the number
and types of people necessary to ensure the continued operation of the organization.
Companies are now looking out for new ways of giving themselves a competitive advantage.
New product, new image& new marketing idea are some of the ways this can be achieved
but enlightened and successful companies look towards their people to provide the leading
edge. Business process outsourcing is a type of outsourcing that involves contracting of the
operations and the responsibilities of a specific business processes or functions to a third
party service provider. Outsourcing system allows companies to contract for services that are
not within the scope of their expertise, so that they can focus their time, money and energy
on their core competencies instead of wasting valuable resources trying to gain
understanding of areas that are somebody else's expertise.
2.2 LITERATURE REVIEW
Taylor, M. Susan; Bergmann, Thomas J. (1987) in their article emphasis that the
Organizational recruitment activities have been hypothesized to affect applicants’ reactions
to the organization, independent of effects exerted by the job attributes associated with the
position (e.g., location, salary, title). The authors utilized a co relational design and a field
setting in assessing applicants’ reactions to a five-stage recruitment program. Henning
Weiner (2008) examines an area of the recruitment process in today’s labor market from the
point of view of the employer. More specifically, an analysis is conducted with respect to the
recruitment channels that Swedish firms utilize in the present days. Lars Behrenz (2001)
gives a picture of the recruitment behavior of Swedish employers. Employers mainly recruit
personnel in order to expand a certain activity of their firm. On an average the total
recruitment process takes about a month. In first round employers mainly look for job
seekers with good education and experience. During the job interview the employer search
8
for persons with professional knowledge, personal engagement and social competence.
Stephen Taylor (2001) investigated the effectiveness of different recruitment sources used by
six American companies for new employees. New workers who came through referrals by
current employees had longer tenure with the organizations than did those recruited in other
ways. Individual job performance and attitudes toward the employer were largely unaffected
by the source through which the employee was recruited. Alexandra Rufini (2008) analyzed
the recruitment strategies of firms aiming to fill high job positions. They have considered
four recruitment channels actually used to hire high skilled workers: employee referrals,
private agencies, promotion and top notch Universities.

Muhammad Rizwan (2010), “Empirical Study of Employee Job Satisfaction”. The main
objective of this research report is to find the crucial problems, faced by the employees while
working in organizations and find the ways how we make our employees loyal with their
organization. The purpose of this research is to elaborate the key factors which are useful for
the satisfaction of the employees i.e. workplace environment, reward and recognition,
training and development and team work. These factors help to make the policies effective
and through this effectiveness, efficiency takes place in the management process. This
research paper is based on theoretical considerations, a model was proposed linking the
employee job satisfaction (EJS) constructs. The survey was conducted in 2012 and covered
200 employees within the territory of Punjab in Pakistan. Through this survey we find a
strong positive relationship between team work and all other factors

Shagufta Sarwar and James Abugre (2011), “The Influence of Rewards and Job
Satisfaction on Employees in the Service Industry”. The purpose of this study was to find out
the relationship between employees’ rewards, and the dimension of their job satisfaction in
the service sector. We hypothesized that rewards play a significant role in employee
satisfaction, resulting in increased customer satisfaction and loyalty. A questionnaire was
constructed, tested and administered to a total 110 subjects at two private organizations. Out
of that 104 usable surveys were analyzed with microsoft excel to test the hypotheses of the
study. Findings showed that rewards induced positive job satisfaction of employees. The
study result highlights the role of employees’ job satisfaction and the responsibilities of
organizations in fostering good quality HRM practices in the service sectors, and offers an
alternative pathway in employee satisfaction and performance. These results add to the
evidence that HR practises influences business outcomes rather than the other way around.

Sadegh Rast (2012), “Evaluation of Employees job Satisfaction And Role Of Gender
Difference: An Empirical Study At Airline Industry In Iran”. This purpose of this study is to
determine level of employees’ job satisfaction and to investigate effect of gender on
employees’ job satisfaction. Important factors that have an impact on job satisfaction are
supervision, relationship with co-workers, present pay, nature of work, and opportunities for
promotion. Data for this study was collected from employees of three private airline
companies in Iran. Descriptive analysis performed to determine level of employees’ job
satisfaction. In addition, independent-sample t-test was utilized to empirically test
relationship between employees’ job satisfaction and their gender. Findings suggest that
employees are moderately satisfied with their job and there is no significant difference
between male and female employees’ job satisfaction.

Annelore Deprez and Karin Raeymaeckers (2012), “A Longitudinal Study of Job


Satisfaction among Flemish Professional Journalists”. The focus of this paper is on the job
satisfaction among the population of professional Flemish journalists by means of two
surveys conducted in 2003 (N = 1,026) and 2008 (N = 682). Both surveys focus on intrinsic
and extrinsic variables linked to job satisfaction as well as on several predictors of job
satisfaction such as type of contract, job function, age, and gender. The longitudinal
perspective allows us to identify any evolutions or differences in satisfaction between 2003
and 2008. By taking into consideration previous mentioned predictors also the influence of
external elements on job satisfaction can be researched. The 2003 and 2008 surveys suggest
that the “average” Flemish professional journalist is fairly satisfied with the job content.
However, we observe a slightly negative but non-significant shift occurring in 2008. The
degree of job satisfaction seems to be related to the type of contract (freelance or employed
on a permanent basis) and the job function. We noticed also a clear gender element in the
discussion: Female journalists are not less satisfied but state to have more difficulties to
combine the journalistic job with a private and family life.

Samuel Emeka Mbah and C. O . Ikemefuna (2012), “Job Satisfaction and Employees’
Turnover Intentions in total Nigeria plc. in Lagos State”. This paper examines job satisfaction
and employees’ turnover intentions in Total Nigeria PLC in Lagos State. The paper highlights
and defines basic concepts of job satisfaction and employees’ turnover intention. It
specifically considered satisfaction with pay, nature of work and supervision as the three
facets of job satisfaction that affect employee turnover intention. To achieve this objective,

10
authors adopted a survey method by administration of questionnaires, conducting interview
and by reviewing archival documents as well as review of relevant journals and textbooks in
this field of learning as means of data collection. Four (4) major hypotheses were derived
from literature and respective null hypotheses tested at .05 level of significance It was found
that specifically job satisfaction reduces employees’ turnover intention and that Total Nigeria
PLC adopts standard pay structure, conducive nature of work and efficient supervision not
only as strategies to reduce employees’ turnover but also as the company retention strategy.

Muhammad Javed, Muhammad Rafiq, Maqsood Ahmed and Mustajab Khan (2012),
“Impact of HR Practices on Employee Job Satisfaction in Public Sector Organizations of
Pakistan”. The purpose of this study is to observe the relationship between three HR Practices
i.e. (Training and Development, Rewards, Recognition) and the employee job satisfaction in
the public sector organizations of a developing country, Pakistan. Data has been collected
from the employees of various public sector organizations and then regression and correlation
have been applied to check the relationship between the dependent and independent
variables. Recognition and training and development are a key source of employee job
satisfaction in Public sector organizations of Pakistan but rewards do not have any significant
impact upon employee job satisfaction.

Javad Eslami and Davood Gharakhani (2012), “Organizational Commitment and Job
Satisfaction”. The purpose of this paper is to examine the role Job satisfaction on
Organizational commitments. In this study, Data collected from 280 Iranian employees. The
present study employs a questionnaire survey approach to collect data for testing the research
hypotheses. Relevant statistical analytical techniques including regression for analysis was
then used. The results indicate that all three factors of Job satisfaction (Promotions‚ Personal
relationships‚ and Favorable conditions of work) have positive and significant effects on
Organizational commitments. Our results indicate that job satisfaction have positive and
significant effects on organizational commitments. These findings highlight the critical roles
of Components of job satisfaction in organizational commitments. The practical implication
of the results is that managers need to actively improve their firm's job satisfaction to
Employees would achieve a higher level of organizational commitments.

Bidyut Bijoya Neog and Dr. Mukulesh Barua (2014), “Factors Influencing Employee’s
Job Satisfaction: An Empirical Study among Employees of Automobile Service Workshops
in Assam”. The Automobile industry is one of the major industries for country’s economic

11
development. The main objective of this study is to assess the factors which are responsible
for influencing employee’s job satisfaction. This paper aims to study relationships in between
fair compensation and job satisfaction, supervisor support and job satisfaction, working
environment and job satisfaction and Job Security and job satisfaction. The result revealed
that salary is the most important factor for influencing job satisfaction of employees. Apart
from salary, it has been found that the influence of supervisor support, healthy working
environment, high JS level, proper work-life balance, career opportunities and promotion,
proper training and development opportunities are also very important factors for determining
employee’s job satisfaction. Data have been collected from 100 respondents by visiting the
authorised service workshops of ten automobile manufacturers. The result of this study shows
that the job satisfaction level of employees is average and it calls for management attention
towards enhancing the employee job satisfaction level. This paper presents relationship
between various factors and puts forth suggestions for improving employee’s job satisfaction
level.

Wong Yvonne (2014), “Employee Job Satisfaction And Job Performance: A Case Study In
A Franchised Retail- Chain Organization”. This study examines the relationship between job
satisfaction and job performance among the employees. Job satisfaction is being discussed in
term of its nine facets: pay, promotion, supervision, fringe benefits, contingent rewards,
operating procedures, co-workers, nature of works and communication. On the other hand,
job performance is being viewed in the aspects of contextual performance and task
performance. The result of the study found that the two variables (job satisfaction and job
performance) are correlated to each other and the relationship is significant.

3.1 INTRODUCTION
This methodology explain about the overall objective of research design, data
collection method, sampling procedure, construction of questionnaire, tools of analysis.

COMPANY PROFILE

HCL turns 30 on Aug 11, 2006. As India's original IT "garage start-up", HCL has
been hardwired into India's digital multiplier right from the start. Starting with calculating
machines, HCL moved onto computers and now spans the entire infotech and digital
spectrum. It created saveral path breaking technology at the same time as US Global
corporations. It was HCL that spawned the concept of computer literacy and education way
back in 1981, identifying a yawning gap between the growth in technology and education at
the user level.

HCL has always had the uncanny ability to read ahead, of any market inflexion point
and adapt itself to derive maximum advantage. In all such transitions (or 'genesis points') in
the company's 30-year-history, it has repeatedly leveraged its fundamental strengths in
imagining a future, taking calculated risks to make the future a reality and being at the
leading edge of technology, on its own or jointly with customer/partners.

HCL had its 'first' genesis with grassroot development of complete systems in the mid
70s, an era of proprietary systems and vertically integrated industry. Subsequently, it saw a
great opportunity in combining Unix with 32 bit processors to offer 'open systems' that would
be more powerful and cost effective compared to proprietary ones. HCL had its 'second
genesis' by anticipating this inflexion and moving rapidly to adopt this technology
abandoning its proprietary approach. In its 'third genesis' in the 90s, it rode the wave of
engineering innovation by shifting focus from Unix servers to networking hardware and
software, positioning itself as an R&D services provider to other OEMs and database
companies. By the time it experienced its 'fourth genesis', HCL stood at the threshold of a
great new opportunity of being a Design House for the world, and setting the stage for
technology outsourcing. It was ready for the new world of desktop and server centric
computing, and a multi tier, distributed processing paradigm for the web.

Among the first to understand the benefits of partnerships and employee involvement,
HCL created a culture of entrepreneurship within the company. A large part of its
15
predominant position in services came from a very creative carve-out strategy which involved
building financial services competencies with numerous JVs and a host a similar acquisitions
which transformed HCL from a pure-play Tech/ R&D/Product Engineering player into a very
well rounded IT services player. This impact is quite a dramatic strategic turnaround where
many have fallen by the wayside.

HCL believes in taking chances. Endorsing high risks, and a "mistakes is a key to
growth" approach, it has spread across every aspect of IT - hardware, software, networking,
telecom and digital entertainment. It is No.1 in Remote Infrastructure, No.3/4 in BPO, and a
power to reckon with in other spaces where it has experienced large marquee wins. This has
made HCL Technologies a $1 billion run rate entity with a top 5 position in all segments
(Apps, Technology/ Product Engineering , Enterprise Consulting, Infrastructure and BPO).

HCL Infosystems (http://www.hclinfosystems.com) is now a $2.3 billion IT


tech/telecom/digital product distribution, networking, SI, domestically-focused powerhouse.
HCL now has huge experience in manufacturing, distribution & logistics, and marketing
opportunities opening up in the convergence space in the domestic IT market.

It is HCL that pioneered the sub-Rs 10,000 PC and has taken connectivity to the
remotest parts of India by setting up the country’s largest V-Sat network. It is the only Indian
IT company to have as large a domestic presence as its international presence. India’s
banking network has virtually been set up by HCL. HCL has built networks for over 40,000
bank branches and 6,000 ATMs across the country. The financial markets, too, are powered
by HCL’s IT infrastructure. Traders in any part of the country enjoy real time connectivity to
the country’s leading stock exchange. HCL is also developing a comprehensive solution to
help the market regulator monitor the market.

Indian corporations are bridging the digital divide internationally too. HCL is engaged
in mission-critical work on next generation aircraft, implantable pain relieving medical
devices and remote monitoring of complex IT infrastructure. Such high-end work is being
carried out of design and development centers based in India.

16
Supersonic planes, cutting edge medical devices, or a routine share transaction, HCL
influences every aspect of technology be it in corporations, governments, schools, hospitals
or your home. With its focus on "collaborative outsourcing" and exponential growth, HCL is
ready for the future.
