Executive Summary
During my internship I gained practical knowledge on how the human resource division of an
organization operates and coordinates its activities to ensure smooth functioning of the
organization at all levels by ensuring right numbers of people are available at the right time to do
the right job. Not only that I have also gained insight into the working culture of the organization
and observed how GBC PVT. LTD. handles its employees with value and empowerment to ensure
they are motivated to give their best to the organization. The report starts with the introduction of
topics which is overview of HR Diversion and policies where I have covered basic meaning of
human resource management, function of human resource management and some basic of HR and
HR policies which are implies in companies. In the next topic I have cover an organizational
background where I mentioned about the basic information about the company, their customers,
their products and services, milestones/ history.

CHAPTER- 1
Chapter: 1
Human resource management involves all management decisions and practices that directly
affect or influence the people, or human resources, who work for the organization. In modern
years, amplified concentration has been devoted to how organizations manage Human
Resources. This augmented focus comes from the comprehension that an organization’s
employees facilitate an organization to attain its goals and the management of these human
resources is vital to an organization’s success.
2
HUMAN- refers to the skilled workforce in an organization.
Management: refers how to optimize and make best use of such limited or scarce resource so as
to meet the organization goals and objectives.
1.2PURPOSE
The overall purpose of human resources (HR) is to ensure that the organization is able to achieve
success through people. HR professionals manage the human capital of an organization and focus
on implementing policies and processes.
Human resource management (HRM) views people as organizational assets and internal
customers and works to create job satisfaction and employee efficiency and effectiveness.
HRM concentrates on internal sources of competitive advantage. It regards people as an
organization 's most important asset.
The department of human resources (HR) communicates with employees and adapts the
organization's culture and structure to their needs—for example, in negotiating with unions
or re-engineering processes.
HR leads the employment life cycle, from attracting and hiring the right employees to
facilitating performance reviews and eventually processing terminations.

1.3FUNCTIONS OF HR
Human Resource Management functions can be classified into the following three categories.
Managerial Functions,
Operative Functions, and
Advisory Functions.
2. Organizing - In an organization tasks are allocated among its members, relationships are
identified, and activities are integrated towards a common objective. Relationships are established
among the employees so that they can collectively contribute to the attainment of the
organization's goal.
3. Directing - Activating employees at different levels and making them contribute maximum to
the organization is possible through proper direction and motivation. Taping the maximum
potentialities of the employees is possible through motivation and command.

2. Job Analysis and Design - Job analysis is the process of describing the nature of a job and
specifying the human requirements like qualification, skills, and work experience to perform that
job. Job design aims at outlining and organizing tasks, duties, and responsibilities into a single unit
of work for the achievement of certain objectives.
Employee Orientation: Employee orientation provides new employees with the basic background
information they need to perform their jobs satisfactorily. Companies arrange an orientation
program for the employees. In an orientation program the employees should feel-
feel welcome
understand the organization in a broad sense
be clear about what the firm expects in terms of work and behavior
begin the process of socialization
3. Performance Appraisal - Human resource professionals are required to perform this function
to ensure that the performance of employees is at an acceptable level.
4. Training and Development - This function of human resource management helps employees
acquire skills and knowledge to perform their jobs effectively. Training and development
programs are organized for both new and existing employees. Employees are prepared for higher-
level responsibilities through training and development.
Training is one of the important activities of human resource management. In the training process
companies try to motivate and train the employees in a manner so that they can work more
effectively in the future. Under the training process there are some steps they are given below:
5
Employee Training:
There is some process, method and techniques of employee training. A company follows the all
the steps of training to provide the employees a good look on their work.
Career Development:
Pre transition: Is simply looking for a job and preparing oneself for a career.
Transition: An individual is already having a job and developing oneself for future career
or moving to another career.
Preferred area: An individual prefers a specific sector of the career.
Early stage: First 1-5 years of career is called early career.
Mid-career: 5-20 years after the career starts.
Late career: Late career starts after 20 years of job life.
Retirement: finally, after completing the stages of career and individual decides to retired.
6. Employee Welfare - This function refers to various services, benefits, and facilities that are
provided to employees for their well-being.
7. Maintenance - Human resource is considered an asset for the organization. Employee turnover
is not considered good for the organization. Human resource management always tries to keep
their best performing employees with the organization.
8. Labour Relations - This function refers to human resource management interaction with
employees represented by a trade union. Employees come together and form a union to obtain
more voice in decisions affecting wage, benefits, working conditions, etc,.
10. Personnel Record - This function involves recording, maintaining, and retrieving employee-
related information like - application forms, employment history, working hours, earnings,
employee absents and presents, employee turnover, and other data related to employees.

The Advisory Functions of Human Resource Management are as follows:
Human Resource Management is expert in managing human resources and so can give advice on
matters related to human resources of the organization. Human Resource Management can offer
advice to:
The personnel manager advises the top management in the formulation and evaluation of
personnel programs, policies, and procedures.
The personnel manager advises the heads of various departments on matters such as manpower
planning, job analysis, job design, recruitment, selection, placement, training, performance
appraisal, etc.
When we talk about Human Resource Management, several elements are considered cornerstones
for effective HRM policies. These cornerstones are:
2. Performance management
4. Succession planning
Recruitment and selection are arguably the most visible elements of HR. We allremember our first
interview, right?

Recruiting candidates and selecting the best ones to come and work for the company isa key HR
responsibility. People are the lifeblood of the organization and finding the bestfits is a key task.
The request for new hires usually starts when a new job is created or an existing job opens up. The
direct manager then sends the job description to HR and HR starts recruiting candidates. In this
process, HR can use different selection instruments to find the best person to do the work. These
include interviews, different assessments, reference checks, and other recruitment methods.
Sometimes, when there are a lot of candidates, HR may deploy preselectingtools.These tools help
to separate the wheat from the chaff when it comes to suitablecandidates. The successful
candidates then continue to the next round, where they areinterviewed and receive a more in-depth
assessment.
2. Performance management
People are the product of life experiences, the country and era they grow up in, and arange of
cultural influences. Within HR, learning and development ensure thatemployees adapt to changes
in processes, technology, and societal or legal shifts. Learning and development helps employees
to reskill and upskill. Learning &Development (L&D) is led by HR and good policies can be very
helpful in advancing theorganization towards its long-term goals.Many organizations have pre-
defined budgets for L&D efforts. This budget is thendistributed amongst employees, with trainees,
future leaders, and other high potentialsoften receiving more training opportunities than others.
Individuals may arrive at acompany with vastly different knowledge and experience. L&D
8
provides employees witha way in which to bridge skill gaps and develop into leaders. A well-
known frameworkthat connects performance management with L&D activities is the 9-Box grid.
Based onpeople’s performance and potential ratings, HR department together with managers
canadvise different development plans.
4. Succession planning
Succession planning is the process of planning contingencies in case of key employeesleaving the
company. If, for example, a crucial senior manager quits his/her job, havinga replacement ready
will guarantee continuity and can save the company significant money. Succession planning is
often based on performance ratings and L&D efforts. Thisresults in the creation of a talent
pipeline. This is a pool of candidates who are qualifiedand ready to fill (senior) positions in case of
someone leaving. Building and nurturingthis pipeline is key to good people management.
Another one of the HR basics is compensation and benefits. Fair compensation is key inmotivating
and retaining employees. One of the fundamentals of human resourcemanagement concerning pay
is ensuring equity and fairness.Making the right offer of pay is a key part of attracting the best
talent. This must bebalanced with the budget and profit margins of the company. HR should
monitor payincreases, and set standards of merit. HR may also carry out a pay audit on
occasions. Compensation comprises primary compensation and secondary compensation.
Primarycompensation involves directly paid money for work, which often is a monthly salary
andsometimes performance-based pay.Secondary benefits are all non-monetary rewards. This can
include extra holidays,flexible working times, day-care, pensions, a company car and laptop, and
much more.The goal here is to reward people in ways that motivate them.
The last two HR basics are not HR practices but tools to do HR better. The first isthe Human
Resource Information System, or HRIS. AnHRIS supports all thecornerstones we discussed above.
For example, for recruitment and selection, HRprofessionals often use an Applicant Tracking
System, or ATS, to keep track ofapplicants and hires.For performance management, a performance
management system is used to keeptrack of individual goals and put in performance ratings.In
L&D, a Learning Management System (LMS) is used for the distribution of contentinternally, and
other HR systems are used to keep track of budgets and trainingapprovals.Compensation
specialists often use a payroll system, and there are also digital toolsthat enable effective
succession planning.All these functionalities can often be done in one single system – the HRIS.
Sometimes,however, the management of these functionalities is split up into different HR
systems.The bottom line here is that there is a significant digital element to working in HR whichis
why the HRIS is the final element when we talk about the HR basics.
9
7. HR data and analytics
The last of the HR fundamentals revolves around data and analytics. In the last half-decade, HR
has made a major leap towards becoming more data-driven.The Human Resource Information
Systems we just discussed is essentially a data-entrysystem. The data in these systems can be used
to make better and more informeddecisions.An easy way to keep track of critical data is
through HR metrics or HR KPIs. These arespecific measurements that answer how a company is
doing on a given measurement.This is referred to as HR reporting.
This reporting focuses on the current and past state of the organization. Using HR
analytics, HR can also make predictions. Examples include workforce needs, employeeturnover
intention, the impact of the (recruitment) candidate experience on customersatisfaction, and many
others.By actively measuring and looking at this data, HR can make more data-drivendecisions.
These decisions are often more objective, which makes it easier to findmanagement support for
these decisions.
1.5 HR Policies
HR policies are an essential framework that every company needs to ensure smooth functioning.
These policies are the guiding factor that tells the company and the employees how to work and
conduct themselves to ensure a safe and secure working environment for all.
The primary purpose of HR policies is to manage employees more productively and ensure the
organization’s smooth functioning. The inclusion of HR policies creates a base or a solid
foundation for companies to manage and lead their employees towards growth and prosperity. It
also saves the company from any legal compliance issues in case of a lawsuit filed by any of the
employees.
HR policies?
HR strategies are also described as the set of concepts and norms of behavior that regulate
an organization’s interaction with its workers. A policy proposal of this type sets instructions
for a broad range of employment connections inside the business. The aim and relevance of HR
rules are self-evident. Every firm needs policies in order to promote regularity in behavior and
equality in employee relations.
HR Department Policies and Practices are critical in SMEs because they give an outline,
management, uniformity, justice, and rationality. They also guarantee that employment laws are
followed and that workers are aware of their obligations and the Business’s goals.
10
1. Employment contract
In India, it is crucial to file proper documentation of the employees that work in the company. The
employee contract acts as the umbrella covering a list of HR policies and agreements.As per
India’s employment laws, it is essential to file proper documentation of the employees to ensure
appropriate navigation through the complex and diverse employment framework.Therefore, having
accurate and updated documents that prove the employee’s compliance to the company will help in
the long term and save them from any legal hassles later. Therefore, you need to follow the labour
and wage laws while processing documentation.
2. Employee wages
Employee payroll is one of the significant aspects of employee management. The job of the HR
department of the company is to manage the employee payroll effectively. This includes offering
competitive salaries to employees and staying in compliance with the government policies.Various
acts passed by the government cover the employee wages. The most prominent among being The
Minimum Wage Act, 1948. This act sets a particular wage as the minimum wage for skilled as
well as unskilled workers. The act mandates that the employees earn the ‘Basic’ salary to meet
their living expenses.Further, The Payment of Wages Act, 1936 states that an employee should
receive their rightful monthly salary payment on the agreed-upon date without any unwanted
deductions. Therefore, companies need to follow the laws to remain compliant while being
competitive. This is one of the most critical points in the list of HR policies in India.
3. Code of Conduct
The Code of Conduct is the company’s policies, consisting of its vision, mission, and ethics. This
is created to inform employees about the policies of the behavior and maintain discipline while at
the workplace.
The code of conduct is among the types of HR policies containing the company’s rules that
employees need to adhere to. The policy includes dress code, equal rights to all, electronic usage
policy, conflict of interest, media policy, proper work environment etc. It also contains the rules
and penalties if an employee breaches or violates the code of conduct.
4. Leave policy
As per requirement, every company should have a good leave policy to provide a clear picture of
the leaves they would be entitled to take in a year. The policy should include a proper bifurcation
of the leaves into paid leaves, sick leaves or casual leaves etc. It must also mention public
holidays.
HR policies in India 2022 should also provide provision for unpaid leaves along with detailed rules
on the salary cut on late arrivals and half days. According to The Factories Act, 1948, employees
11
are entitled to get paid holidays every week as well as get paid for any extra work they did beyond
their work hours.
Every employer is liable to set up an employee’s provident fund account for each of its employees.
The Employees Provident Fund Act, 1947 provides income security to the employees after their
retirement. This is more like a security fund offering various benefits for employees, such as
housing care, medical insurance and retirement pension.
It is important to note that companies exceeding 10 employees must provide provident fund
benefits to their employees. Therefore, if you have more than 10 employees, then you are liable to
have a provident fund scheme for your employees.
6. Gratuity Policy
The gratuity policy is a way for companies to appreciate the services provided by their employees
towards the company. The gratuity policy applies to all employees who have provided more than 5
years of continuous service to the organization.
The company is liable to pay a one-time payment as gratuity payout to employees who are either
being laid off or resigning, but have provided 5 years or more of continuous service. This is vital to
keeping employees happy and engaged. Moreover, companies are legally bound, as per The
Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, to pay gratuity to their employees.
Every company with more than 10 employees is required by law to provide maternity leave
benefits to women employees as per The Maternity Benefits (Amendment) Act, 2017. Any woman
who has worked with the company for 80 days is entitled to receive the benefits.
According to the act, a pregnant working woman is eligible to get a minimum of 26 weeks of paid
leave for the first 2 children and a subsequent 12 weeks of unpaid leave.
As of now, there is no law on paternity bills for private company employees. The central
government employees are entitled to get paternity leave of 15 days to take care of their wife and
surviving child. There is a proposed paternity benefits bill, 2017, which is still pending
government authorization.
A company is required to take or implement decisive rules, human resource policies and
regulations to create a safe work ecosystem for women at the workplace. This is not just required
by law, but it should be a moral necessity for the company.
12
According to The Sexual Harassment Act, 2013, the company must implement proper steps to
protect women employees and interns as well as any woman who visits the company. Moreover,
every company should have a sound sexual harassment policy to address harassment complaints
by women employees actively.
This includes setting up an Internal Complaints Committee in every company crossing the 10-
employee mark to look into the sexual harassment complaints by women at the workplace.
The past year has seen a paradigm shift in various companies’ work culture. The pandemic has
forced many of them to ask their employees to work from home. This has given rise to the need for
an adaptive work culture policy to provide greater flexibility to employees to choose their work
location or workplace.
The adaptive work culture policy should contain proper rules and structures to manage employees
working remotely or working from home. This will create a framework or guidelines for
employees to follow when working from different locations.
Every employer has to face it. Some of your employees may plan to move ahead at some point in
their careers. You may also feel that an employee no more fits into your larger scheme of things.
These moments are emotional for the employee as well as the employer.
Therefore, the employer needs to ensure that they implement a proper leave policy that lays down
the steps for an employee who wishes to leave the company.
This will help the HR team follow the correct procedures as per the labour laws to terminate an
employee or process the employee’s resignation request.
HR policies are an essential framework that every company needs to ensure smooth functioning.
These policies are the guiding factor that tells the company and the employees how to work and
conduct themselves to ensure a safe and secure working environment for all.
Google renamed the normal ‘Human Resources’ division to ‘People Operations,’ wherein
management holds that in developing strong relationships between employers and employees. The
organization enables its staff to use their creativity and keep coming up with great out-of-the-box
ideas and value-added activities.

Flipkart is one of the largest electronic retail giants and provides its employees with unpaid time
off to attend to personal commitments. The organization also offers exceptional discounts for
special occasions such as an emergency involving friends or relatives. These benefits are in
addition to the standard leaves that are awarded.
If your HR team has to draft an HR policy, certain precautions have to be taken. Why? Because the
last thing you want is a botched official document of your organization that lays down important
rules, regulations and procedures for everyone.
The human resources field began to take shape in 19th century Europe. It built on a simple idea
by Robert Owen (1771-1858) and Charles Babbage (1791-1871) during the industrial revolution.
These men concluded that people were crucial to the success of an organization. They expressed
the thought that the well-being of employees led to perfect work; without healthy workers, the
organization would not survive.
HR emerged as a specific field in the early 20th century, influenced by Frederick Winslow
Taylor (1856–1915). Taylor explored what he termed "scientific management" (sometimes
referred to as "Taylors"), striving to improve economic efficiency in manufacturing jobs. He
eventually focused on one of the principal inputs into the manufacturing process—labor—sparking
inquiry into workforce productivity.
Meanwhile, in England, C S Myers, inspired by unexpected problems among soldiers which had
alarmed generals and politicians in the First World War of 1914–1918, co-founded the National
Institute of Industrial Psychology (NIIP) in 1921. In doing so, he set seeds for the human relations
movement. This movement, on both sides of the Atlantic, built on the research of Elton
Mayo (1880-1949) and others to document through the Hawthorne studies (1924–1932) and other
studies how stimuli, unrelated to financial compensation and working conditions, could yield more
productive workers. Work by Abraham Maslow (1908–1970), Kurt Lewin (1890–1947), Max
Weber (1864–1920), Frederick Herzberg (1923–2000), and David McClelland (1917–1998),
forming the basis for studies in industrial and organizational psychology, organizational
behavior and organizational theory, was interpreted. in such a way as to further claims of
legitimacy for an applied discipline.

1.7 LITERATURE REVIEW
Leavitt (1965) Proposes that an organization can change four things its task or purpose, its
technology, its structure and its employees. Hostage (1975) believes that a service firm’s contact
personnel comprise the major determinants of service quality. Berry (1980) along with Booms and
Bitner (1981) argue that, due to intangible nature of services, customer use elements associated
with the physical environment when evaluating service quality. Leavitt (1981) proposes that
customers use appearances to make judgments about realities. Berry (1981), Gronroos (1990) and
Gummesson (1990) stated that if a management wanted its employees to deliver an outstanding
level of service to customers, it must be prepared to do a great job with its employees. McCleary
and Weaver (1982) indicated that good service is defined on the basis of identification of
measurement behaviors that are important to customers. Lewis and Booms (1983) propose that
service quality resides in the ability of the service firm to satisfy its customer needs i.e. customer
satisfaction. Beer and others (1984) also stress the importance of HRM in getting managers
involved in the dissemination of the organization’s central mission to all employees. Gronroos
(1984), Lehtinen and Lehtinen, (1982) Defining service quality and its components in a form that
is actionable in the workplace is an important endeavor that any business company cannot take
lightly. Russel, Terborg and Powers (1985) demonstrated a link between the adoption of
employment training programs and financial performance. Zemke and Albrecht (1985) suggested
that service plays an important role in defining a restaurant‟s competitive strategies and identified
systems and strategies for managing service. Russel, Trevor and Powers (1985) demonstrated a
link between the adoption of employment training programs and financial performance. As
suggested by (Levitt, 1986; Gronroos, 1994; Morgan, 1994; Gummesson, 1999; Bejou etal, 1998)
trust, commitment, ethical practices, fulfillment of promises, mutual exchange, emotional bonding,
personalization and customer orientation have been reported to be the key elements in the
relationship building process. Gronroos (1990) Customers evaluate banks‟ performance mainly on
the basis of their personal contact and interaction. Rutherford (1990) reported that motivation
makes an organization more effective because motivated employees are always looking for better
ways to do a job, so it is important for management to understand how organizations influence the
motivation of their individual employees. Cascio (1991) argues that the financial returns associated
with investments in progressive HR practices are generally substantial. Schneider and Bowen
(1993) postulated that by recruiting and selecting right people, training them to work in the market
segment allocated to them, rewarding them according to the objective achieved by them would get
benefits to the organization. Terpstra and Rozell‟s (1993) study of the relationship between
recruiting/selection practices and firm performance, where they found a significant and positive
link between extensiveness of recruiting, selection and the use of formal selection procedures and
firm performance. Fisk et al., (1993) Academics and practitioners have demonstrated interest in
issues that surround the measurement of service quality and the conceptualization of the
relationship between service quality and consumer satisfaction. Fisk et al., (1993) the interest in
service quality parallels the focus on quality, total quality management, and satisfaction in
15
business. Schneider & Bowen (1993) Management should be aware of this closeness, which has a
strong influence customer's perception of service quality. Palmer (1994) The role of marketing is
to achieve organizational aims by satisfying user’s needs, and HRM is about reaching
organizational aims. For this reason HRM must be concerned with satisfying external customer
needs. Collins & Poras (1994); Sako (1998); Shaw, (1997) HRM practices are an important part of
the social exchange that characterizes employment relations, and in which the components of trust
come into play. Wager (1994) employees‟ trust in managers will be positively related to perceived
service quality. Schneider & Bowen (1995) two partners are actively involved in the service
process: employees and customers, and when an organization nurtures its relationships with its
employees, a real improvement in service provision to customers occurs. Huselid (1995) in his
famous article "The impact of human resource management practices on turnover, productivity,
and corporate financial performance" took eleven human resource management practices which
are personnel selection, labour management participation, incentive Compensation, performance
appraisal, grievance procedures, information sharing, job design, attitude assessment, recruitment
efforts, promotion criteria and employee training. William et al., (1996) Career planning is a tool
that aligns strategy with future HR needs and encourages employee to strive for his personal
development. Koch and McGrath (1996) reported that firms using more sophisticated staffing
practices (planning, Recruiting and selection) had higher labor productivity. Hollowell (1996) both
the service management and the marketing literatures suggest that there is strong theoretical
underpinning among customer satisfaction, customer loyalty, and profitability. Spender (1996)
knowledge has become the most important strategic factor of production, so managers must now
focus on its production, acquisition, movement, retention and application. Delaney and Huselid
(1996) categorized the human resource management practices into the factors that improved
employee skills, motivated and inspired the employees, and arrangement design of the workplace.
Koch and McGrath (1996) reported that firms using more sophisticated staffing practices had
higher labor productivity. Patterson et al (1997) while discussing impact of people management
practices on business performance has argued that HR practices in selection and training influence
performance by providing appropriate skills. Worsam (1997) successful service organizations
invest heavily in HRM, especially ongoing training. The management of human resource is
crucially important in all organizations but it is particularly true of service organizations where
every employee is (or potentially is)in direct contact with customers. Lam and White (1998)
reported that firm‟s HR orientations (measured by the effective recruitment of employees, above
average compensation and extensive training and development) were related to return on assets,
growth in sales and growth in stock values. Parasuraman (1988) Research has indicated that
service quality has been increasingly recognized as a critical factor in the success of any business.
Cowling and Newman (1995) the banking sector in this case is not exceptional. Service quality has
been widely used to evaluate the performance of banking services. Bateson (1995) states that
quality is generally conceptualized as an attitude, the customer’s comprehensive evaluation of the
service offered. Lam and White (1998) reported that firms‟ HR Orientations (measured by the
effective recruitment of employees, above average Compensation, and extensive training and
development) were related to return on assets, Growth in sales and growth in stock values.
Schneider, While & Paul (1998) supportive working environment and organizational aspiration to
16
service and excellence will motivate employees to give customers the best service. On the other
hand, customer who meets a satisfied and enthusiastic employee will perceive the provided service
positively. Schneider, White, and Poul (1998) developed and tested a model of the effects of the
service oriented climates in bank branches on customer satisfaction. Schneider and Bowen (1999)
suggested that companies manage how to implement concern for customer needs in all actions that
might influence customer's feelings about relationship with the firm. Cooke (2000) efficiency and
effectiveness as ingredients of Performance apart from competitiveness and productivity. Richard
and Johnson (2001) examined the impact of strategic HRM effectiveness on a number of
performance variables. Guest (2002) have argued that the Impact of HRM on performance depends
upon worker’s response to HRM practices, so the impact will move in direction of the perception
of HRM practices by the employee. Grant (2002) holds that knowledge is the overwhelming
important productive recourse; indeed the value of people and machines lies primarily in the fact
that they embody knowledge. Datta et al, (2003) Use of best HR practices shows a stronger
association with firm’s productivity in high growth industry. Wright et al (2003) have argued that
an employee will exert discretionary effort if proper performance management system is in place
and is supported by compensation system linked with the performance management system.
Bowen and Ostroff (2004) have conceptualized psychological climates as one that apply to
individuals in their own specific work contexts based on the experimental perceptions of what
people see and report happenings to them as they make sense of their environment. Chaoprasert
and Elsey (2004) Banks need focus on service quality as a core competitive strategy. Summers &
Hyman (2005) increasing employee participation, the firm will benefit from increase in
productivity of the employee due to increased commitment of the employee. Qureshi M Tahir
(2006) It clearly outlines duties, responsibilities, working conditions and expected skills of an
individual performing that job. Green, Wu, Whitten and Medlin (2006) reported that organizations
that vertically aligned and horizontally integrated HR function and practices performed better and
produced more committed and satisfied HR function employees who exhibited improved
Individual and organizational performance. Teseema & Soeters (2006) in their famous article
"Challenges and prospects of HRM in developing countries: testing the HRM-performance link in
Eritrean civil service" took eight HRM practices which are recruitment and selection practices,
placement practices, training practices, Compensation practices, employee performance evaluation
practices, promotion practices, grievance procedure and pension or social security. Tahir Masood
Qureshi (2006) Impact of HR practices on organizational performance in Pakistan clearly indicates
that HR practices affect Organizational Performance through employee outcomes. Humprey,
Ehrich, Kelly, Sandall, Redfern,Tsai (2006) Taiwan reported that effective use of employee
empowerment practices are positively related to organizational performance. HRM plays an
important role in the exchange relationship between the organization’s management and its
employees, and its practices might have some effect on service quality. Wolf and Zwick (2008)
found that employee involvement and financial incentives and inducement were often honored as
efficient way for increasing the organizational productivity. They revealed that employee job
involvement lifted up the organizational productivity, but monetary incentive scheme did not do
so.

SUGGESTIONS
As in the competitive world where the need for every organization to prove itself the best and
make an outstanding and remarkable progress is the need, no fact could be left ignored. Every
organization must know the shortcomings and must try to go for building up the shortcomings. An
ethical practice in any organization could only be achieved if the organization works for the well
being of its employees. Every organization must possess a basic organization must be capable
enough to reward its outstanding performers a the initiative works.
Induction Practices
Induction is must in every organization for all level of employees to make them well known of the
industry they are working in.
The induction program must follow a proper feedback from employees been put into the
program which is again an ethical practice and is achieved by
Induction scheduling
Opinions from supervisors
Feedback forms.
43
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. For all the programs the organization must follow feedback method to understand the
effectiveness of any practice in a better way.
2. Holistic views of induction should out show both positive and negative aspects of the

adopted by the organization.

of an employee, the purpose of training serves the mutual benefit of both organization an
the employee. Thus, the employee should be more oriented towards drawing as much
benefits as he can. Employees are supposed aderstand their role for particular training
program
5. Company mist maintain training or training charts and training report submitted by the
trainee. This, practice not o keeps a maintained record of the programs been conducted but
also keep the employ own of the knowledge gained by him which could later be utilized.
