CHAPTER1
INTRODUCTION

This study was executed in order to measure the employee’s current satisfaction of
motivational factors and incentives in the company, as well as to use that information
to determine which factors and incentives could be changed, implemented, or eliminated in
order to motivate them to do their best work in the future. The study was conducted by issuing
a questionnaire to all employees working at the company. The employees that participated were
both full-time and part-time, from all different departments, and have been working at the
company for varied periods of time. The questionnaire was split into four different parts, and
the data derived from the questionnaire was analyzed and presented in this report in four
criteria: communication in the workplace, income of employees, long-term incentives, and
non-financial incentives.

In the organizational setting the word “Motivation” is used to describe the drive that
impels an individual to work. A truly motivated person is one who “wants” to work .Both
employees and employers are interested in understanding motivation if employees know what
strengthens and what weakens their motivation, they can often perform more effectively to find
more satisfaction in their job. Employers want to know what motivates their employees so that
they can get them to work harder.

It is also clear from the study that the company is so eager in motivating their
employees and their present effort for it so far effective. The human resources can play an
important role in the realization of the objectives. Employees work in the organization for the
satisfaction of their needs. If the human resources are not properly motivated, the management
will not be able to accomplish the desired results. Therefore, human resources should be
managed with utmost care to inspire, encourage and impel them to contribute their maximum
for the achievement of the business objectives. Motivating employees can be one of biggest
challenges as an employer, but learning how to inspire each individual is the key to a successful
organization.

According to scientific management employee motivation is based on most pragmatic an
essential Pessimistic philosophy that man is maintained by money. The individual
involvement, loyalty, dedication to job and organization seed to be low key affair, the loyalty,
dedication and involvement leads to organization effectiveness productivity as well as
individual growth and enhancement. Employee motivation is commonly measured in seven
areas that is physical, salary and perks, promotion, policy, job security, work interest, relation,
welfare facilities. Studying employee motivation which influence and determine human
behavior in worth because ultimately all the aspects related to employee motivation ultimately
leads to good industrial relationship enhances inter personal relation ultimately leads to
increase productivity and growth of the organization. Thus, the study is an attempt to explore
various factor which can affect industrial Development especially related to employee
Motivation which can be helpful to all those and especially industrial social workers to find out
effective measures and solution to deal with the loopholes and obstacles in gaining effective

CHAPTER2
INDUSTRY PROFILE

ORIGIN OF THE INDUSTRY

In1889, William Steward Halsted, the first chief of surgery at John Hopkins Hospital invested
rubber gloves in order to prevent medical staff from catching dermatitis from surgical chemical.
A rubber gloves is a glove made out of rubber. Rubber gloves can be unsupported (rubber
only) or supported (rubber coating of textile gloves). Its primary purpose is protection of the
hands while performing tasks chemicals. Rubber gloves are worm during dishwashing to
protect the hands from detergent and allow the use of hotter water. Health profession use
medical gloves rather than rubber gloves when performing surgical operations.

ORIGIN AND GROWTH OF LATEX

In 1883, but it wasn't until 11 year later that this new invention began to be used as part of
standard surgical procedure at the Johns Hopkins complaining about the difficulty of getting
the gloves fully in to their hands, so almost - immediately the fledging gloves industry began
to look for a gloves lubricant.

Many different types of lubricant have been tried over the years. Gloves manufacturers were
simultaneously trying to solve their own need for manufacturers to facilitate removal of the
rubber gloves from had molds. Lycopodium spores mixed with talc were used for the first few
years until a study conducted in the late 1920's showed that the Lycopodium spores were
slightly poisonous to humans.

HISTORY OF INDIAN LATEX INDUSTRY

India is the fourth largest and the second largest consumer of rubber. Despite not being a very
favorable region for growing natural rubber. Indian continues to record the highest productivity
among the major natural rubber producing countries (economic survey < 2011-2012). The
rubber plantation occurs 0.4% of the gross cropped area and contribute 0.19% to the national
GDP. The country has considerable potential to expand rubber-based industries due to
indigenous availability of raw material, fast growing auto mobile market, scope for value
addition and avenues in the country. Natural rubber forms the back bone of commercial

agricultural scenario of the Tate ad rubber plantation prefund influence on the economic and
social status of the people.

The relative shares of small holder estate in time total production of natural rubber in the state
for the period 1970-71 to 2008-09 are presented in Table 1. There has been a steady decline in
the contribution of estates to natural rubber production during the past four decades and it came
down to around 7% in 2008-09.

Rubber production of the country is contributed mainly by small holders. There are more than
one million small holdings accounting for 88% of the total area and 92.5% of the total rubber
production. Transfer of appropriate technology on seasonal basis to the vulnerable section of
the rubber planting community in an intangible manner, coupled with timely delivery of quality
inputs and equipment at cheaper rates is perhaps the major criterion that would help maximize
production and productivity of rubber from smallholdings.

SCOPE OF THE MARKET IN INDIA

There are about 200 latex gloves manufacturers in India in small and medium scale sectors.
But the resource for raw material mainly the natural rubber production is increasing in
Northeastern region day by day. The natural rubbers produced in NER are being sold to support
industry in other part of the India. The price of the raw rubber depends as per the trader’s call
only. Therefore, the creation of local buyer as Rubber based industry has high potential to
encourage the rubber growers and creation of market for the growers. Another reason to
moving towards setting up of manufacturing plant for rubber products is to make available of
PPE kit part like rubber hand gloves and safety gloves for general use due to COVID-19
situation. It has high demand and gloves for different applications can be made in production
line. The various steps from Rubber Tree plantation to Glove making is as follows: Rubber
trees are usually ready to be tapped after about seven years of growth. A steel tapping knife is
used to remove thin strips of bark from the tree at a downward curve. This directs the milky-
white sap to a spiel, or spigot, which channels it into a cup affixed to the tree. Tapping is done
in the early morning, because sap coagulates faster later in the day, when temperatures are
higher, and reduces the flow. After about six hours, the fluid stops flowing. In that six-hour
period, a tree can usually fill a gallon bucket. The tree can be tapped again with another fresh
cut, usually the next day. The latex is preserved with ammonia. Trees often are rested for a
period after heavy tapping. Because of its high water and non-rubber content—about 70% is

water, protein, sterol glycosides, resins, ash, and sugars—the latex is concentrated and
stabilized. The latex is mixed with processing chemicals including sulfur, zinc oxide,
accelerators, pigments, stabilizers, a de-webbing agent, and antioxidants. The latex matures for
24 to 36 hours to become a compound ready for dipping. Production uses ceramic or aluminum
hand-shaped molds, or formers, that are first extensively washed in hot water and chlorine to
ensure there is no residue from previous batches. Next the formers, suspended on a continuous
moving chain, are dipped into a mixture of calcium nitrate solution and calcium carbonate—
the nitrate is a coagulant, while the carbonate helps the gloves release from the formers. After
drying, the molds are dipped into the latex compound, with the duration of the dip determining
the mil thickness of the gloves. The freshly molded gloves are next leached in a mixture of hot
water and chlorine, which removes residual latex proteins and chemicals to help reduce the
severity of any allergic reactions to latex. The gloves are then dried and cured, which is where
Charles Goodyear’s enormously important discovery enters the process. Vulcanization
converts the gloves to an elastic state by causing a reaction between rubber molecules in the
latex and chemicals that have been added, and gives gloves their elasticity so they are less
likely to tear. After drying, the gloves are rinsed again to leach out more latex proteins, then
the cuffs are beaded, or rolled, to make them easier to don and doff. After a dip into cornstarch
and a final drying, pneumatic air jets strip the finished gloves from the formers, or workers
remove them by hand. The gloves are hot-air tumbled to remove any remaining powder. The
molds are given another thorough chemical wash and rinse, and the process begins anew.

Due to COVID-19 situation the demand of rubber glove is high as PPE for health workers.
Moreover, for general application also increases as people are more conscious to take
precautionary safety front line protection to avoid direct contact from any other diseases. The
requirement of general application may have high demand in future if public has this trend to
use hand gloves as fashion and frontline safety barrier. This will be more in demand if certain
rules come as “no gloves no” entry to any institutions in future similar to Mask at present
situation.

• Cleaning

The manufacturing process starts with gloves formers being attached, by size, to the
assembly line. Automated washing consists of a five-step process where gloves along the
assembly line through tank of water, acid and alkaline before being rinsed and brushed.
Periodically, formers will also be removed from the assembly line and manually washed in
a process called offline washing.

 Coagulation Dipping.

The hand shaped formers are coated with coagulant (calcium nitrate, calcium carbonate)
and dipped into latex to coat them with a thin film of latex. The coagulant converts the
liquid latex film in to wet-gel on the formers subsequent passage through a warm oven
completes coagulation process.

 Coagulation dry
After formers dipped in to coagulant solution, formers will enter drying oven before
proceed to latex dipping.

 Latex dipping

The formers that are coated with coagulant will now dip in to latex tank that contains
compounded matured late. Traditionally, manufacturers only dipped once but in the recent
tear newer dipping lines enable manufacturer to dip twice hence reducing the risk of pin
holes. Regardless single dipping or double dipping, consistencies in the total solids, dry
rubber content temperature and latex agitation flow should be maintained at pre-determined
uniform level.

GFGC HONNAVAR Page | 18


STUDY ON EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION SWARNA LATEX INDUSTRIES

 Drying
After dripping, the formers are cured for five minutes in an oven at 100to 120 degrees and
begin to solidify. This step drastically impacts the physical properties of the glove.

 Beading
Gloves are generally beaded at the cuff. The cuff is then rolled to make the glove stronger
when donning and stripping. This process, called beading, also improves the vulcanization,
which helps to build the glove’s overall durability and chemical resistance.

 Main vulcanization
most common defect if the parameters are not control optimally would be sticky gloves,
which means insufficient crosslinking took place causing inferior gloves performance.
The polymer cross linking is probably at 80%to 90% complete at this stage and the
rubber will continue to vulcanize even after it was stripped from the formers. Therefore,
good manufacturing practice would require glove to be aerated for at least two days to
further enhance the strength of the firm.

GFGC HONNAVAR Page | 19


STUDY ON EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION SWARNA LATEX INDUSTRIES

 Leaching
In a process called leaching, forms and the sticky gloves are dipped in to 80 degrees
Celsius water tanks for 2 minutes. this process extracts proteins and other residuals to
lower the potential for allergic reaction. This same process is repeated a second time
after beading to further extract any remaining proteins.
 Powdering/Slurry
Powdered gloves are then put through a wet powdering process called slurry for about a
minute to ensure even powdering. Like beading, the slurry is intended to help make the
gloves easier to done. From the slurry, the gloves are again dried in an oven at 60 degrees
for 2 minutes.

 Stripping

This is the final operation line removal of glove from the formers. This is often carried
out manually frequently with the assistance of compressed air.

 Packing

In this process firstly, employee s put seal on the gloves. Then the gloves are packed in
plastic covers.

CHAPTER3
EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION

INTRODUCTION

An issue which usually generates a great deal of attention from most managers,
administrators and those involved in Human Resources Management is the issue of how
to successfully motivate employee. While it is true that aspects like staff recruitment,
controlling, managing, leading, and many more are of great importance to the success
of an organization, Employee Motivation is generally considered a core element in
running a successful business.
In the organizational setting the word “Motivation” is used to describe the drive that
impels an individual to work. A truly motivated person is one who “wants” to work.
Both employees and employers are interested in understanding motivation if employees
know what strengthens and what weakens their motivation, they can often perform
more effectively to find more satisfaction in their job. Employers want to know what
motivates their employees so that they can get them to work harder. The concept of
motivation implies that people choose the path of action they follow. When behavioral
scientists use the word motivation, they think of its something steaming from within
the person technically, the term motivation has its origin in the Latin word “mover”
which means “to move”. Thus the word motivation stands for movement. If a manager
truly understands his subordinate’s motivation, he can channel their “inner state”
towards command goals, i.e., goals, shared by both the individual and the organization.
It is a well-known fact that human beings have great potential but they do not use it
fully, when motivation is absent. Motivation factor are those which make people give
more than a fair day’s work and that is usually only about sixty-five percent of a
person’s capacity .Obviously , every manager should be releasing hundred percent of an
individual’s to maximize performance for achieving organizational goals and at the same
to enable the individual to develop his potential and gain satisfaction. Thus every
manager should have both interest and concern about how to enable people to perform
task willingly and to the best of their ability. At one time, employees were considered

just another input into the production of goods and services. What perhaps changed this
way of thinking about employees was research, referred to as the Hawthorne Studies,
conducted by Elton Mayo from1924 to 1932 This study found employees are not
motivated solely by money and employee behavior is linked to their attitudes.

The Hawthorne Studies began the human relations approach to management, whereby
the needs and motivation of employees become the primary focus of managers

Meaning of Employee Motivation


Employee Motivation is the enthusiasm, energy level, commitment, and amount of
creativity that an employee brings to the organization on a daily basis

Definition of Motivation

Motivation is a process that starts with a physiological or psychological


deficiency or need that activates behavior or a drive that aimed at a goal or an
incentive.

"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." - Rick Pitino

“Employee motivation is a reflection of the level of energy, commitment, and


creativity that a company's workers bring to their jobs.”

"Psychological forces that determine the direction of a person's behavior in an


organization, a person's level of effort and a person's level of persistence."- G.
Jones and J. George from the book "Contemporary Management."

STUDY ON EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION SWARNA LATEX INDUSTRIES

Basics about Motivation


1. Motivating employees starts with motivating yourself it’s amazing how, if you hate
your job, it seems like everyone else does, too. If you are very stressed out, it seems
like everyone else is, too. Enthusiasm is contagious. If you're enthusiastic about your
job, it's much easier for others to be, too. Also, if you’re doing a good job of taking care
of yourself and your own job, you'll have much clearer perspective on how others are
doing in theirs. A great place to start learning about motivation is to start understanding
your own motivations. The key to helping to motivate your employees is to understand
what motivates them. So, what motivates you? Consider, for example, time with family,
recognition, a job well done, service, learning, etc. How your job is configured to
support your own motivations? What can you do to better motivate yourself?

2. Always work to align goals of the organization with goals of employees as mentioned
above, employees can be all fired up about their work and be working very hard.
However, if the results of their work don't contribute to the goals of the organization,
then the organization is not any better off than if the employees were sitting on their
hands -- maybe worse off! Therefore, it's critical that managers and supervisors know
what they want from their employees. These preferences should be worded in terms of
goals for the organization. Identifying the goals for the organization is usually done
during strategic planning. Whatever steps you take to support the motivation of your
employees (various steps are suggested below), ensure that employees have strong
input to identifying their goals and that these goals are aligned with goals of the
organization. (Goals should be worded to be “SMARTER") .

3. Key to supporting the motivation of your employees understands what motivates each
of them each person is motivated by different things. Whatever steps you take to support
the motivation of your employees, they should first include finding out what it is that
really motivates each of your employees. You can find this out by asking them, listening
to them and observing them.

GFGC HONNAVAR Page | 25


STUDY ON EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION SWARNA LATEX INDUSTRIES

4. Recognize that supporting employee motivation is a process, not at ask Organizations


change all the time, as do people. Indeed, it is an ongoing process to sustain an
environment where each employee can strongly motivate themselves. If you look at
sustaining employee motivation as an ongoing process, then you'll be much more
fulfilled and motivated yourself.

5. Support employee motivation by using organizational systems (for example, policies


and procedures) --don't just count on good intentions don’t just count on cultivating
strong interpersonal relationships with employees to help motivate them. The nature of
these relationships can change greatly, for example, during times of stress. Instead, use
reliable and comprehensive systems in the workplace to help motivate employees.
For example, establish compensation systems, employee performance systems,
organizational policies and procedures, etc., to support employee motivation. Also,
establishing various systems and structures helps ensure clear understanding and
equitable treatment of employees.

IMPORTANCE OF MOTIVATION

Motivation is a very important for an organization because of the following benefits it


provides: -

 Puts human resources into action


Every concern requires physical, financial and human resources to accomplish the
goals. It is through motivation that the human resources can be utilized by making full
use of it. This can be done by building willingness in employees to work. This will help
the enterprise in securing best possible utilization of resources.

 Improves level of efficiency of employees

GFGC HONNAVAR Page | 26


STUDY ON EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION SWARNA LATEX INDUSTRIES

The level of a subordinate or an employee does not only depend upon his qualifications
and abilities. For getting best of his work performance, the gap between ability and
willingness has to be filled which helps in improving the level of performance of
subordinates. This will result into-
 Increase in productivity,
 Reducing cost of operations, and
 Improving overall efficiency.

 Builds friendly relationship


Motivation is an important factor which brings employees satisfaction. This can be
done by keeping into mind and framing an incentive plan for the benefit of the
employees. This could initiate the following things:
 Monetary and non-monetary incentives
 Promotion opportunities for employees.

What motivates employee


Every person has a different reason for going to work. These reasons are as individual
as whichever person you may ask. But all of the reasons for working share a common
thread. We all obtain something from work we need.

There is much discussion about the value of extrinsic motivation (monetary and other
material rewards) versus intrinsic motivation where people re driven by what’s inside
them. not by the trappings of success.

Whereas I recognize how critical extrinsic motivation is–we all need to be rewarded
fairly for the job that we do-in my experience the most effective factors relating to
employee motivation are related to intrinsic motivation:

1. Empowerment: Feeling trusted and empowered is a tremendous motivator.

2. Growth: Feeling that they are growing and developing personally

3. Inclusion: ‘To belong’ is a fundamental need, whether as a member of a family, peer


group, network, team or company. It’s human nature to want to be on the inside, not
the outside.

GFGC HONNAVAR Page | 27


STUDY ON EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION SWARNA LATEX INDUSTRIES

4. Purpose: Today people care more about what happens tomorrow, and want to
contribute to ensuring the future of our children, and the health of our communities and
planet.

5. Trust: the fabric that holds it all together and makes it real. Framework of
motivation.

Framework of motivation

The framework comprises six steps: -

1) Motivation process begins with the individual’s needs. Needs are telt deprivations
which the individual experiences at a given time and act as energizers. These needs may
be psychological (e.g., the needs for recognition), physiological (e.g., the needs for
water, air or foods) or social (e.g., the needs for friendship).

The Role of Motivation

Why do we need motivated employees?

The answer is survival. Motivated employees are needed in our rapidly changing
workplaces. Motivated employees help organizations survive. Motivated employees are
more productive. To be effective, managers need to understand what motivates
employees within the context of the roles they perform. Of all the functions a manager
performs, motivating employees is arguably the most complex. This is due, in part, to
the fact that what motivates employee’s changes constantly. For example, research
suggests that as 10 employees' income increases, money becomes less of a motivator
(Kovach, 1987). Also, as employees get older, interesting work becomes more of a
motivator.

Mechanism of motivation
Motivation is the process that starts with physiological or psychological deficiency or
need that activate behavior or a drive that is aimed at a goal or incentive.

The key to understanding motivation lies in the meaning of, and relationship between
needs, drives and goals Needs: Needs are created whenever there is a physiological or
psychological imbalance for example: A need exists when cells in the body are deprived
of food and water or when the personality is deprived of other people who serve friends
or companions. Although psychological may be based on a deficiency, sometimes they
are not. For instant, and individuals with a strong need to get ahead may have a history
of consistent success· Drives: “Drives (Or motives) are set up to alleviate needs.
Psychological needs can be simply defined as a deficiency with direction. Physiological
or psychological drives are action – oriented and provide energizing thrust towards
reaching an incentive or goals. They are at the very heart of the motivational process.
The needs for food and water are translated into hunger and thrust drives, and the need
for friend becomes a drives affiliation. Thus, drive is a psychological state which moves
an individual satisfying need· Goals: At the end of the motivational cycle is the goal or
incentive. It is anything that wills that will alleviate a need and reduce a drive. Thus,
attaining a goal will tend to restore physiological or psychological balance and will

reduce or cut off the drive. Eating food, drinking water and obtaining friends will tend
to restore the balance and reduce the corresponding drives food, water and friends are
the incentive are the goals in this example.

Types of Motivation

There are many types of motivation.

Motivational techniques have been experienced by every person from birth. We learn
behavior through motivation. We live our whole lives because of motivation. The
question that remains however is this: What motivation should a person have? This is
important because our motivation decides our behavior. Some types of motivation are
more effective than others. However, the perfect motivation for you can only be decided
by one person: YOU.

Why do people do what they do? Why do we go on every day, living our lives and
trying to find justification for our existence? Some people think that they can find
purpose in the things that motivate them. Others just see the motivation and react
automatically.

There is no one thing that motivates people to perform certain actions. People are
different, so it follows that their motivations have to be different. Here are some types
of motivation:

 Achievement –

This is the motivation of a person to attain goals. The longing for achievement is
inherent in every man, but not all persons look to achievement as their motivation. They
are motivated by a goal. In order to attain that goal, they are willing to go as far as
possible. The complexity of the goal is determined by a person's perception.

GFGC HONNAVAR Page | 30


STUDY ON EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION SWARNA LATEX INDUSTRIES

To us, the terms "simple" and "complex" are purely relative. What one-person thinks is
an easy goal to accomplish may seem to be impossible to another person. However, if
your motivation is achievement, you will find that your goals will grow increasingly
complex as time goes by.

 Socialization –

Some people consider socialization to be their main motivation for actions. This is
especially evident in the situation of peer pressure. Some people are willing to do
anything to be treated as an equal within a group structure. The idea of being accepted
among a group of people is their motivation for doing certain things.

 Incentive motivation –

This motivation involves rewards. People who believe that they will receive rewards
for doing something are motivated to do everything they can to reach a certain goal.
While achievement motivation is focused on the goal itself, incentive motivation is
driven by the fact that the goal will give people benefits. Incentive motivation is used
in companies through bonuses and other types of compensation for additional work.
By offering incentives, companies hope to raise productivity and motivate their
employees to work harder.

 Fear motivation –

When incentives do not work, people often turn to fear and punishment as the next tools.
Fear motivation involves pointing out various consequences if someone does not follow
a set of prescribed behavior. This is often seen in companies as working hand-in-hand
with incentive motivation. Workers are often faced with a reward and punishment
system, wherein they are given incentives if they accomplish a certain goal, but they are
given punishments when they disobey certain policies.

 Change motivation-

GFGC HONNAVAR Page | 31


STUDY ON EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION SWARNA LATEX INDUSTRIES

Sometimes people do things just to bring about changes within their immediate
environment. Change motivation is often the cause of true progress. People just become
tired of how things are and thus, think of ways to improve it.

 Natural Motivations-

Motivation is the most common type of motivation and happens the most often. It is the
motivation people get when naturally motivated.

 Fear motivations-

Fear Motivation happens often within the workforce when under pressure to complete a
task.

 Booster motivations-

Booster Motivations is normally self-driven to overcome a task you have set yourself.

Methods of Motivation

There are as many different methods of motivating employees today as there are
companies operating in the global business environment. Still, some strategies are
prevalent across all organizations striving to improve employee motivation. The best
employee motivation efforts will focus on what the employees deem to be important. It
may be that employees within the same department of the same organization will have
different motivators. Many organizations today find that flexibility in job design and
reward systems has resulted in employees' increased longevity with the company,
improved productivity, and better morale.

GFGC HONNAVAR Page | 32


STUDY ON EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION SWARNA LATEX INDUSTRIES

 Empowerment –

Giving employees more responsibility and decision- making authority increases their
realm of control over the tasks for which they are held responsible and better equips
them to carry out those tasks. As a result, feelings of frustration arising from being held
accountable for something one does not have the resources to carry out are diminished.
Energy is diverted from self-preservation to improved task accomplishment.

 Creativity and Innovation –

At many companies, employees with creative ideas do not express them to management
for fear that their input will be ignored or ridiculed. Company approval and toeing the
company line have become so ingrained in some working environments that both the
employee and the organization suffer. When the power to create in the organization is
pushed down from the top to line personnel, employees who know a job, product, or
service best are given the opportunity to use their ideas to improve it. The power to
create motivates employees and benefits the organization in having a more flexible
work force, using more wisely the experience of its employees, and increasing the
exchange of ideas and information among employees and departments. These
improvements also create an openness to change that can give a company the ability to
respond quickly to market changes and sustain a first mover advantage in the
marketplace.

 Learning –

If employees are given the tools and the opportunities to accomplish more, most will
take on the challenge. Companies can motivate employees to achieve more by
committing to perpetual enhancement of employee skills. Accreditation and licensing
programs for employees are an increasingly popular and effective way to bring about
growth in employee knowledge and motivation. Often, these programs improve
employees' attitudes toward the client and the company, while bolstering self-
confidence. Supporting this assertion, an analysis of factors which influence
motivation-to-learn found that it is directly related to the extent to which training
participants believe that such participation will affect their job or career utility. In other
words, if the body of knowledge gained can be applied to the work to be accomplished,

GFGC HONNAVAR Page | 33


STUDY ON EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION SWARNA LATEX INDUSTRIES

then the acquisition of that knowledge will be a worthwhile event for the employee and
employer.

 Quality of Life –

The number of hours worked each week by American workers is on the rise, and many
families have two adults working those increased hours. Under these circumstances,
many workers are left wondering how to meet the demands of their lives beyond the
workplace. Often, this concern occurs while at work and may reduce an employee's
productivity and morale.

Companies that have instituted flexible employee arrangements


have gained motivated employees whose productivity has increased. Programs
incorporating flextime, condensed workweeks, or job sharing, for example, have been
successful in focusing overwhelmed employees toward the work to be done and away
from the demands of their private lives. All motivation ultimately comes from within a
person. Monetary Incentive - For all the championing of alternative motivators,
money still occupies a major place in the mix of motivators. The sharing of a company's
profits gives incentive to employees to produce a quality product, perform a quality
service, or improve the quality of a process within the company. What benefits the
company directly benefits the employee. Monetary and other rewards are being given
to employees for generating cost-savings or process-improving ideas, to boost
productivity and reduce absenteeism. Money is effective when it is directly tied to an
employee's ideas or accomplishments. Nevertheless, if not coupled with other,
nonmonetary motivators, its motivating effects are short- lived. Further, monetary
incentives can prove counterproductive if not made available to all members of the
organization.

GFGC HONNAVAR Page | 34


STUDY ON EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION SWARNA LATEX INDUSTRIES

 Other Incentives –

Study after study has found that the most effective motivators of workers are
nonmonetary. Monetary systems are insufficient motivators, in part because
expectations often exceed results and because disparity between salaried individuals
may divide rather than unite employees. Proven nonmonetary positive motivators foster
team spirit and include recognition, responsibility, and advancement. Managers, who
recognize the "small wins" of employees, promote participatory environments, and treat
employees with fairness and respect will find their employees to be more highly
motivated. One company's managers brainstormed to come up with 30 powerful
rewards that cost little or nothing to implement. The most effective rewards, such as
letters of commendation and time off from work, enhanced personal fulfillment and
self-respect. Over the longer term, sincere praise and personal gestures are far more
effective and more economical than awards of money alone. In the end, a program that
combines monetary reward systems and satisfies intrinsic, self- actualizing needs may
be the most potent employee motivator.

Factors for Lack of Motivation in the Workplace

A drop in staff motivation can become contagious if the cause is not identified and
addressed. Management needs to be conscious of employee motivation, and that means
being able to identify the factors that cause a lack of motivation in the workplace.
Become familiar with the factors that can degrade staff motivation and design plans to
combat these productivity killers.

Rumors

The important thing to remember about rumors is that they are not always wrong. Some
rumors have basis in fact, but that does not make them good for employee morale. An
employee that hears a rumor that she may be laid off experiences an instant drop in
motivation. To deal with the problem of rumors in the workplace, it is important for
management to share important information with the staff in a timely manner. This
helps employees to feel confident that management will address rumors and encourages
staff members to wait on information from the company before acting on a rumor.

GFGC HONNAVAR Page | 35

Inadequate Job Skills

Employees are motivated to succeed at jobs for which they feel prepared and properly
trained. Before moving an employee into a position of greater responsibility or before
allowing any changes to an employee's job duties, be certain that employee has had the
training needed to get started. Putting an employee in a position where she feels she has
inadequate job skills will erode the employee's confidence and stifle any motivation to
succeed.

Goal Flaws

Employees are not motivated by the notion that their hard work will make company
owners and executives rich, the more internalized a company's goals sound, the less
motivated employees are to fulfill those goals. The company needs to focus on the
customer and give employees a chance to feel as though it has done something
substantial to help the customer. For example, develop a referral program that
encourages customers that have recently purchased products to recommend other
people that your sales professionals can call on. The company and sales staff benefit
from the increase in business, but the sales staff also gets to see the appreciation of past
clients in the form of potential new business.

Overwork

Employees that are overworked are likely to lose motivation regardless of how much
overtime pay they are receiving. If you know a period is coming where extra hours will
need to be worked, develop a schedule in advance and give your employees ample
warning so they can prepare in their personal life. Make sure the staff schedule still
allows employees to spend time with their families and get away from the stress of
working too much.

Techniques of Employee Motivation

Here are some motivations techniques that will help to get staff re-energised and
engaged at work. To begin with, make sure you have the right conditions in place so
that your work culture supports motivation.

Make sure you offer:

 Fair pay and conditions


 A comfortable, safe, working environment
 Opportunities for employees to socialize and make friends
 clearly defined work responsibilities and goals
 Education and training opportunities
 Career opportunities

As a manager, you play a key role in building on a solid foundation and motivating
employees. Remember that 70% of people leave their boss, not the company.

So what can you do to make sure that employees are switched on at work?

Here are some practical motivation techniques that you can use to improve motivation
in your workplace:

1. Treat Employees as Individuals


Do you make assumptions about what motivates your employees? Some are likely to
be career focused, but others may see their work as a place to make friends and earn
money. Find out what motivates employees outside of work. Some enjoy a challenge
such as a sporting activity; others may like to be on committees so they can use their
organizational skills. Use their innate talents in the workplace where possible to keep
them motivated. Set goals which stretch their abilities. Make goals SMART - specific,
measurable, achievable, relevant and time framed.

GFGC HONNAVAR Page | 37


STUDY ON EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION SWARNA LATEX INDUSTRIES

2. Treat Employees with Respect

Get to know your employees on a personal level, and offer support when needed, even
if it is only to listen to their concerns. Ask your employees for their opinions where
possible, for example if you are changing systems or introducing new equipment. Being
involved in decision making is one of the best motivation techniques. Catch your
employees doing something well and praise them - and if you do this in front of others,
it makes the employee feel even better. Giving employees recognition for their efforts
will motivate them to repeat the process.

3. Provide Opportunities for Employee Learning and Dev4. lament

Encourage a learning climate, through structured on-the-job training programs, job


transfers, inter-disciplinary projects and support for further education. Aim to have your
employees constantly learning new skills and gaining new knowledge. This will reduce
the level of stagnation that can easily occur in a business. Promote from within where
feasible - and invest the time and support in developing employees so they can take on
new opportunities. Some managers worry that by offering a high level of training to
employees, they may leave the business for better opportunities elsewhere.

Remember this allows other employees to rise up and take their place!
Also the word will spread that you are a good employer - which may encourage a higher
caliber of external job applicants.

4. Make the Workplace a Fun Place

Having fun is one of the best motivation techniques. And small things can make all the
difference.

 bringing sweets to team meetings


 sharing non-business news through e.g. newsletters
 arranging activities such as lunchtime yoga sessions
 surprising employees with a birthday cake
 asking the employees for their opinion on what would make the workplace a fun
place!

STUDY ON EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION SWARNA LATEX INDUSTRIES

CONCLUSION

The study concludes that the motivation program conducted in Swarna latex is effective. The
study on employee motivation highlighted so many factors which will help to motivate the
employees. The study was conducted among 50 employees and collected from the structured
questionnaire.

The study helped me to study motivational strategies in practical way. This project titled
“Employee motivation” at SWRANA LATEX has been a knowledge gaining experience for
me by interacting with the workers of various departments. Biggest motivational factor we find
in the study is employee attitude towards monetary and non-monetary rewards which were
found to be positive and also job security given by SWARNA LATEX. Employees also have
high morale.

Motivated employees can lead to increased productivity and allow an organization to


archive higher level of output. Imagine having an employee who is not motivated at work.

Hence, we ca say that employee motivation is a critical aspect at the workplace which leads
to the performance of the department and even the company. Motivating employees needs to
be a regular routine to archive the company’s goal.
