If we observe, in general, there is a process that will be going on in everything we see. From a simple
manufacturing a pen or running an organization. So as for HR. Employee Management is a process which
is a step by step procedure that is followed when an employee joined in the organization till he leaves.
Hence this is the process I have observed in USHODAYA PUBLICATIONS.
This clearly states that no individual function in Employee Service Matters is independent. It ends when an
employee has left the organization and starts again when a new employee joined.

TNA is the process of identifying the gap between employee training and needs of training. Training needs
analysis is the first stage in the training process and involves a procedure to determine whether training will
indeed address the problem which has been identified.360 Degree Approach may be adopted for this purpose.
Components of Training Need Analysis
First step of Training need analysis is to study the “STAFF SERVICE” OF THE ORGANISATION. We have to
make sure that we can make the perfect fit of the employees either, existing or new, in the existing outline.
Then we have to identify the roles and responsibilities. For that we can segregate entire STAFF SERVICE into
3 levels. Managerial, Supervisory and Operational based on designation. Often they are confused with one
another but job role might have broader sense than mere designation. Later we have to identify the
competencies to clearly frame TNA.
In USHODAYA PUBLICATIONS, Identification of training need (TNA) will be done at Reporting In
charge Level. A predefined Training Discussions will be held in case needed) in case JD is not
clearly known.
Then Training & Development department will consolidate the entire needs so found out into
Technical & Behavioral Aspects.
Then plan for the training programs accordingly. Format will be sent to Concerned HOD.
He has to specify the employee name and areas in which training is needed.
FGD (Focused Group
2. Design & Development of training
Designing and development of training module can be classified into two categories.
a) Modes of Training
These are the different ways or the means to train the trainees. They can be said as medium of training
procedure.
i) Trainer Led Training:
This is like a normal classroom training where trainer be imparting knowledge to the employees directly,
Via face –to-face interaction.. In general this is done for behavioral skills.
ii) On-The job training:
It is a formal way of training the employees with a motto of “Learning while doing”. Here he will be given
tasks and will be demonstrated on the job floor. This can be the low cost means.
iii) E Learning:
In this sort of training where knowledge is transferred electronically. But due to lack of personal touch
information may not be transferred effectively. Eg: Webnars

3. Implementation of training
Implementation of training involves deciding the mode and type of training to be given. Trainee Evaluation
for should be decided to ensure the effectiveness of training.
Evaluation of training
Evaluation Levels:
Job Behavioral Level:
When an employee has learnt something it will reflect in his behavior. So this type of Evaluation will be
done after some time period of training to check whether is effective or not.
Program Level:
Collecting the feedback from the trainees.
Learning Level:
In learning level Evaluation we conduct Pre-Training Tests and Post-Training Tests.
In USHODAYA PUBLICATIONS Evaluation done is Job Behavioral Level (For New Employees) and
Program level (For Existing Employees). It is done using the feedback forms with predefined format. A
feedback form will be given to the trainee having various aspects of training and he need give ranking and
as can give necessary suggestions.
Training Evaluation for New Employee:
In USHODAYA PUBLICATIONS Mode of Evaluation is Internal Evaluation. Trainer himself will evaluate the
trainee. “TRAINING EVALUATION FORM” will be sent to the trainer at the end of training period. Trainer
will assess the trainee quantitatively rather than subjective. Evaluation could be based on the learning
capacity, Active Participation, Report Submitted and Face-to-Face interview.
Training Evaluation for Existing Employee:
A feedback form will be given to the trainees after training and their responses will be documented will be
documented.

5) Performance Appraisal
Performance appraisal is the review of the individual’s performance periodically, usually for a period of 1
Year.
In USHODAYA PUBLICATIONS, it will be done yearly once in the month of April for the purpose of
increase in increments. Based on performance an employee might get double increment, Special Hike etc
with the approval of HOD.
For Editorial:
Performance Appraisal of the Editorial Employees of Ushodaya Publications will be done through software
Akshara where self appraisal can be done based on the number of news items that are published,
Importance of the news and also any mistakes that were done. Along with this there are also other factors
that are to be considered such as LINE account at the time of appraising.
But along with Akshara 360 Degree appraisal will also be done.
a) Appraisal Format

month. Once HOD has given his satisfactory report, the review file would be sent to the Managing Director
for approval.

For ease of operations, recruitment of the casual labor, apprentice is being handled over to
individual units because local people can understand the needs better.
After employee on boarding, maintaining the personnel files will be further helpful at the time of
furnishing labor returns, returns to inspector of factories.
The main reason to providing training to existing employees is to up bring their existing skills as
required by organization.
This is also done with an intention to bring behavioral change may be related to work, may be
related to knowledge or may be related to behavior.

ABSCONDINGS
Absconding is the unauthorized from the duty. Based on the nature of employment procedure of dealing
with absconding will be different.
a) Contract Employees
b) Regular Employees
When an employee is in ESI leave it shall not be considered as a authorized leave. So it shows as LOP
only. Due diligence should be applied whether an employee is absconding or in ESI leave.
Absconding dealing procedure:
In case of contract employees:
A minimum grace period of 20 days is given from the date of absent.
After which a Letter of Absconding will be duly signed by the HR Head sent to the permanent address
via registered post.
If employee is reported to his duty and resigned then he will relived from duty by issuing a experience
certificate.
In case of no proper communication he will be discharged from duty with the approval of MD.
In case of regular employees:
If a regular employee is absconded then he can join again within 1Month from the date of issuing
absconding letter.
Absconding letter should be sent on registered post and acknowledgement due receipt should be
collected and documented.
If the employee is responded for the absconding letter then he is for an explanation letter. With the
intention to regulate his behavior a warning letter is issued.
If employee didn’t responded for First letter a maximum of 3 notices will be send.
If he remain unresponded for next two letters then show cause notice will be issued as per Section 19(1)
(d) of Shops & Establishments Act,1988. .Signature of MD is needed for this.
If employee is not responded for the Show cause notice then notice of enquiry will be issued after
consulting the legal advisor.
Every time when a new notice is issued it is mandatory to mention the date of the last notice/letter.
At the time of enquiry there legal representative of the company will present along with the Lawyer.
If the employee attended the Enquiry and found guilt he will be terminated.
If not attended the enquiry, he can be dismissed directly without showing any reason.
But in case of resignation at any time before enquiry letter is issued no need of further enquiry.
102 | P a g e
A Report on HR Practices and Procedures – Ushodaya Publications
Other cases:
When daily report is not submitted:
Attendance is considered on when daily report is submitted to the team lead. In case if not submitted a
period of 20-30 days will be given as grace days will be given. After 3 weeks first letter of absconding
will be issued. Further proceedings are based on the nature of employment.
Death in case of absconding:
It is compulsory to get the confirmation from the concerned incharge. After getting the confirmation in
written ESI Benefit and Funeral benefit will be given as given to any other employee.
When left before getting appointment:
When any employee has left the organisation then grace of 2 Months will be give for him to join back.
Since no letter of appointment is given we cannot issue any charge sheet or enquiry notice. So after
getting confirmation from the concerned HR incharge we will dismiss.
Important points to be considered:
Only after Dismissal or resignation all the statutory settlements will follow.
We cannot make any final settlement after deletion from payroll .
so making sure that employee is no more connected with our organisation all claims will be
released and then he will be deleted from pay sheet.
We also cannot delete someone from PIS directly we can only block them.

It is observed that there is a big impact on the HR Processes with the up gradation of technology.
Earlier Payroll is manually maintained. Before Time office, muster roll of every individual employee is
maintained. Where they will put their initials.
And at the time of payroll all CL,SL,EL and HOP will be counted manually. Imagine how hectic task would
be.
Likewise there was no monthly contribution of ESI,PF. It used to be half yearly and quarterly respectively.

How we planned to implement buddy system
At first we thought of meeting HOD of very individual Organization to collect JD”S .Because of the fact that
the needs and work culture of the organizations are highly independent of on another.
After collecting the JDs we planned to devolve and implement the system.
Training that is given to the buddies is the important aspect .Training will be given on how to handle
change, behavioral aspects etc.
