The success and final outcome of this project required a lot of guidance and assistance from many
people and I am extremely fortunate to have got this all along the completion of my project work.
Whatever I have done is only due to such guidance and assistance and I would not forget to thank
them.
I would want to convey my heartfelt gratitude to Dr Smita Singh, my mentor, for her invaluable
advice and assistance in completing my project on the topic “Study of HR practices and process of
performance appraisals”. She has been there to assist me every step of the way and enabled me to
accomplish my task effectively. I would also like to thank all of the other supporting personnel who

By matching the requirements of a position and the qualifications of the employees, we will be
able to do career planning for employees and succession planning for positions.
A profile matching reports can also be run to review the results of how an existing employee or
an applicant fares against the requirements of a position.
Using the basic object types – constructs of relationships is built to mirror the business edifices and
processes. By assigning object characteristics, validations, requirements etc, we can capture
complex organizational realities with relative ease.
Process Flow:
Before creating all of the other necessary objects and relationships, the user must first create a
root organizational unit. Once one organizational unit has been created, it is recommended to
create the appropriate organizational units below it.
Jobs may be created after an organizational unit exists in the model.
You can assign cost centers to organizational units and Positions.
Every organization has its organizational structure. According to this every employee has some
specific work. The work also depends upon their levels. As per their levels in different departments
they will have to do their work.
In RMC business, there are different departments so as to organize the work efficiently and
effectively. These are:
HR
Marketing
Technical
Commercial and Accounts
IT
Key Accounts
CRM
Quality
As for different departments different works has been specified for the different levels of people. It
helps them to perform their work, which has been specified to him. For similar jobs also the work
of the employees’ has been structured properly, to avoid the repetition of the work with the other
employees. It helps in decrease the overlapping of the work.
In this way the organization stands in a better position than its competitors in the competitive
business.

POORNATA, an ERP (People soft) implementation of Human Resource practices has been
introduced in UTCL to elevate HR processes to world class levels and standardize them across
Units and Businesses. This has resulted in single integrated HR-ERP for all management cadre
employees of the group. These automated HR Processes will also aid in faster, efficient, timely and
accurate data availability to Management for decision-making.
UTCL’s People Soft Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) enables it to achieve world-class
performance by aligning the right information and resources to strategic objectives. People Soft
EPM offers performance management solutions for every budget and every phase of the
management cycle, helping its managers to formulate strategies for profitable growth, align
strategies with operational plans, and actively monitor day-to-day operations.
Poornata helps a lot in the different works of the organization. It helps in the following ways
They can know these policies directly from the ERP system.
As it done only through Online, there is no delay in getting different infomations.
It also helps them to do the reporting to the concerned person.
They can also fill their problems which they face during their work and send to their
departments.
In this way Poornata helps not only the managers but the employees also.
Introduction – Poornata helps in creating and updating of the positions of the employees.
Each position will correspond to specific vacancy in the organization, have a specific headcount
defined for it and is also tied to the following specific attributes:
Business unit
Department
Company
Job code
Location
Regulatory Region
Job Function
Reporting to position (The position to which this particular position reports to)
Career stages
Every time one or more of the above attributes change, the same have to be updated for the
position, or a new position may need to be created corresponding to the new combination of the
attributes.
A position is thus specific and particular opening in the organization, as opposed to job codes,
which are more generic in nature. Job codes reflect the job points of the jobs across the
organization, whereas a position number reflects a specific job description in the organization.
Poornata helps and gives hints and warns the user the important information he must know about
the Poornata system.
It provides the additional information to assist the user & provide key information.
It also tells the frequently asked questions with respect to hiring employees.
It also shows the common error and warning messages that the user may get at the time of hiring.
Employee ID, Position Number, Job code (the job points of the employee), Company (The legal
entity to which an employee /department is attached.), The Business unit to which the employee
belongs to, Location (i.e. where the employee works), Department etc.
Following are the steps that will be used to maintain positions and department budgets
Only after the offline approval has been obtained, should the position be created in the system, i.e.
only pre-approved positions should be entered in to the system.
The position attributes or the approved max headcount for the position has changed.
The position no longer exists.
Organizational Restructuring.
Introduction: The direct hiring process involves an employee being directly added to the Poornata
system that is the situation where his information doesn’t exits as applicant in the Poornata system.
An employee on joining the group would fill up the joining check list and the related forms as per
the unit policy. The HR administrator would then hire him into the system by capturing his
relevant information with respect to his personal job compensation, qualifications and dependents’
information.
The hire action will be used to capture the event of the employee’s joining the organization. There
can be either of two reasons for hire:
Joining the ABG: This will reflect the situation where an employee joins a unit of the ABG
group directly.
Joining the acquired company: This will reflect the situation where an employee had joined an
organization, which was subsequently acquired by ABG.
Going forward the action of joining the acquired company will be used to enter the data of those
employees from the non-management cadre moving into the management cadre who had originally
joined a company that was acquired by ABG.
The following information would be captured at the time of hiring the employee.
Introduction: Post hiring as the employee moves through the organization, there would be various
kinds of updation in the employee data. Broadly the processes that an employee could move
through in the course of his life cycle in the organization comprise:
It is an outcome of what the Organization would like to pay for, which is determined by external
and internal factors. All the processes are aligned to reinforce the philosophy. The company views
compensation not only as something that reflects on the pay slip or in the CTC (Cost To Company)
but also they are concerned about overall employee well being though they may not put any
monetary value on items like Scholarships, Club membership, Retirement benefit, Health and
Accident coverage.
Rewards stretch performance which is linked to business, team and individual results
• Compensation increase
• External benchmarking
• Compensation structure
1. Fixed Cost: It is the fixed component of the salary that is committed to an employee and is paid
on monthly / annual basis. This includes base salary, all perks and reimbursements and retrials
such as PF, Gratuity and Superannuation.
2. Variable Pay: This is the variable component, payout of which is contingent on Business,
Unit/Zone and Individual performance. Targets for the year will be fixed and communicated at the
beginning of every performance year
CTC is decided based on designation, qualification and experience. Basic is around 42% of fixed
cost without housing. Perks and allowances are fixed as per the designations. Variable pay based
on job band is payable at 18%, 15% and 12% of fixed cost without housing. Balance amount is
paid as special allowance.
An exit interview is simply a conversation between a departing employee (who is leaving the
company either voluntarily or involuntarily) and a representative from the organization. The
interview can follow a structured format or be conducted on an informal basis; written
questionnaires can even be used in place of a face-to-face meeting. Whichever format is used, exit
interviews are generally documented.
Traditionally, exit interviews are conducted with employees leaving an organization. The purpose
of the interview is to provide feedback on why employees are leaving, what they liked or didn’t
like about their employment and what areas of the organization they feel need improvement. Exit
interviews are one of the most widely used methods of gathering employee feedback, along with
employee satisfaction surveys.
Exit interviews can be a win-win situation for both the organization and the leaver. The
organization gets to retain a portion of the leaver’s knowledge and make it available to others,
while the leaver gets to articulate their unique contributions to the organization and to ‘leave their
mark’.
Exit interviews offer a fleeting opportunity to find out information that otherwise might be more
difficult or impossible to obtain. The exit interview is an important learning tool for employers.
When properly conducted, the interview provides the employer with the opportunity to:
Approval of loans.
Expense related issues.
Clearance certificates.
Local conveyance.
Exit interview form.
Application form.
Joining formalities.
Making joining letters.
Maintaining personal files with updated details.
Verifying Mediclaims.
Explanation:-
According to Maslow “Human beings have wants & desires which can influence their behavior.
Only unsatisfied needs can influence behavior, satisfied needs do not act as motivators. Since
needs are many, they are arranged in the order of their importance, or hierarchy from the basic to
complex.”
The most basic, powerful & obvious of all human needs is the need for physical survival. Included
in this group are the needs for food, drink, sleep, protection from extreme temperature etc. That
means the basic needs.
Safety Needs-
Once physiological needs are met, another set of motives, called safety or security needs, become
motivators. The primary motivating force here is to ensure a reasonable degree of continuity,
order, structure, & predictability in one’s environment.
Self-Esteem Needs-
Next in Maslow’s hierarchy is esteem or egoistic needs.
Self-Actualization Needs-
Finally if all the above four levels’ needs are satisfied, the needs for self-actualization comes. The
employees who are in the highest position in UTCL are comes under these needs like:
1.V.P.,
2.President,
3.GM etc.
4. All top level employees.
They are getting all types of facilities like mobile, medical, education, conveyance allowances
etc.So they are in the position that they are satisfied with all the needs. Now they are helping their
juniors for the betterment of the organization. All the five needs of Maslow’s hierarchy are
fulfilled by UTCL. So the employees are getting motivated and performing efficiently in the
organization, which impacts directly on the success of UTCL group. That’s why the attrition rate is
less in the organization, which is one of the reason for the success of the companies.
Firstly it was a very good experience to work and learn with a world class for two months as it
was my first step into the corporate world.
When I saw my senior people doing each & every kind of work I came to know how much
important is each & every work. Maintaining files in systematic manner with each & every detail
is very important, if not done it hinders the work whenever these are required for reference in
medical claim formalities, appraisal etc.
As I worked with the employees of HR department in the organization during the project they
shared their experience and learnings with me, which was a very good opportunity I got during my
project.
I learned different HR Policies of the organization which were unknown to me before entering to
the corporate world.
I also learned how much the values and culture of the organization impacts the employees
productivity. Like here the Seniors were approachable in nature, I felt an open culture.
Many a times I felt people are not open to new ideas and they are resistant to change.
I have gained some learning from every individual working here; it might be in terms of
knowledge, skills, behavior or personal traits etc.
I have learned many small, minute things by observations, being in the HR department for 2
months, which could not be learnt simply by reading books theoretically. The practical experience
was totally different.
I have also learnt that a HR person should be very polite, soft spoken & good in handling people.
Co-ordination with all departments is very necessary especially with Finance Department.
During the study of the project I observed different functions of the HR Department. I got
the knowledge about the different types of HR Policies functioning in the organization. I
also got knowledge about how the organization is following their values in a very sincere
way.
I learnt how and what types of facilities are being provided to the employees .
I also observed how they are doing the Performance Appraisal on basis of the
achievement of the targets by the employees in the time given to them through ERP.
I got the knowledge about different departments in a manufacturing company and
idea about the challenges what the employees are facing while performing their work.
As I worked on the ERP system of the organization, I came to know that how they
are maintaining the database of the employees for all departments region-wise & its
importance.
They emphasis on providing proper working environment to their employees, so that the
employees can work efficiently & smoothly .
The company should give the compensation as per to the skills, so that the employees could
do the efficient work.
Organizations must enhance work force motivation to improve productivity. Workers must
be encouraged and motivated to develop a customer satisfaction mind set.
Organizations need to empower their workers by allowing them greater autonomy and
control and to design jobs that are more stimulating. This will enhance the personal
productivity.
Goal Setting programs undertaken with schedule to find potential prospective employees
for higher posts, giving training, discussing the on job responsibilities.
The employee goals are well studied and structured. The Key Related Areas are properly
designed & clearly mentioned to employees.
During the project there were various constraints, which were faced.
The review is done in retrospect and is an average of six months old, so recollection of
events is poor .
The opinions of staff and manager are often in opposition, causing de-motivation .
The process is usually Manager driven and the staff member is expected to be compliant
in the interview .
The process usually involves the Manager giving their opinion and the staff member
having to defend the position, rather than a positive discussion .
The process is usually done in a rushed manner to meet a budget development process
and therefore loses its relevance to performance .
Results of merit rating are not accurate unless factors in the assessment are relevant.
Sometimes,proper weightage may not be given to different qualities to be rated.
Actual rating of subjective factors like initiative & personality of employees may not be
on scientific lines.
Superior may be biased.
Method of Appraisal unreliable.
