INTRODUCTION
Indian Oil was incorporated on June 30, 1959 under the name and style of Indian Oil Company Ltd. Upon merger with Indian Refineries Ltd. on September 1, 1964, the name of the company was changed to Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL). Guwahati Refinery, the first public sector refinery of the country, was built with Romanian collaboration and was inaugurated by the first Prime Minister of India, Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru, on 1st January 1962. As on date IOCL operates the country's largest network of 10000 km of crude and product pipeline with a total capacity of 60.2 million metric tonnes per annum. The Govt. of India was holding the entire Paid- up Share Capital of the Company till 1994-95. The Govt. of India disinvested about 9% of its holding in the company in favour of Banks, Mutual funds, Financial Institutions and Employees of the Company during 1994-95. In the year 1999, the Govt. of India further disinvested 10% of its holding in the Company in favour of ONGC Ltd. which is a Govt. Company. The Corporation is managed by Board of Directors appointed by the President of India. Besides the Chairman, the board has the following whole time Directors: 1. Director (Refineries) 2. Director (Pipelines) 3. Director (Marketing) 4. Director (Finance) 5. Director (HR) 6. Director (R & D) 7. Director (P&BD) The vision of the company can be seen in Exibit-1. It is clear from the vision that the company cares for the employees as well as customers. There is equal emphasis on ethics, innovation, environment and technology. of the key features of IOCL are as follows: 1. It is the first Indian company to launch Graduate Aptitude Test for recruitment. 2. There are opportunities for all round development in the company. 3. It is the first PSU to launch online performance management system. 4. It is the first PSU which has clear KPAs and KPIs. IOCL has been ranked 18th on the basis of job content like job security and work life balance. Some
Accountants of India (ICAI). From last few years they are recruiting Graduate engineer trainees via GATE exam also. IOCL inducts officers at the junior-most level of the management hierarchy (A Grade). First division professional degree holders and post-graduates from relevant disciplines are recruited as management / engineer trainees, accounts officers, medical officers, lab officers, systems officers, communications officers, scientists, etc. Job rotation and inter-location transfers throughout the country facilitate planned development of careers and broaden outlook. Career growth opportunities are based on the individual's performance and contribution to the common goal of sustained growth. Most of IOCL's top executives have grown from within (a testimony to the unlimited opportunities for growth available to the meritorious). After the written and other test, the candidates are subjected for a medical test. The purpose of the test is to select, for a particular post a person who must have good physical and mental health and must be free from any physical defect or disability that is likely to interface with efficient performance of the duties and or safety of the plants, machinery or co-workers. Some of the medical certificates required by candidate can be seen in Exibit-3. All the selected candidates, irrespective of open or campus recruitment, will have to execute a bond of Rs.1 Lakh (Rs.25, 000/- for SC/ST/OBC & PH candidates) giving a commitment to serve the Corporation for a minimum period of three years from the date of joining. If we compare the policies of IOCL with the best practices in industry for recruitment (See Exibit-2), it is clear that IOCL is following the best practices. The recruitment process includes line managers for proper selection of candidates. Also the advertisements for recruitment are not only published in almost all the dailies at national level but it is also given via internet. This is to get a pool of candidates who are suitable for the posts advertised. Also going to various IITs and NITs give them a lot more good talents from all across the country. These are the policies that make IOCL best among the industry in HR front.
B.tech/B.E.). The medical facilities extended to the employees are rated amongst the best in the country. Apart from fully equipped hospitals at refinery townships, the Corporation has also nominated hospitals at various locations to meet employee needs. Holiday homes at select locations throughout the country help employees and their families unwind. The employees are also provided with various other perks and perquisites as described in next chapter.
Indian Oil has a network of 20 Learning & Development Centres. To achieve the technology mission, Refineries Division, created network of seven unit training centres facilitated by the training department and supported by Indian oil Management Academy (IMA) to impart general management skills to select managerial levels. For group training, IOCL collaborated with leading Technical and Management Institutions. Some of the internal Heads along with Training coordinators play a critical role in every form of training, be it formal or informal in the Division. Internal faculty facilitates many training programs. External faculty support is taken for specialized training programs. Faculty development is a continuous process in refineries division through specialized formal and informal training. Effectiveness of Training and Development is dependent on ensuring that an employees knowledge and skill gap is filled by deputing him to a suitable program. In this regard, the role of Training Co-ordinator and HOD is critical. The task of identifying employee, motivating and encouraging him/her to fill this gap by attending a suitable program is the first part. Most important part is to ensure transfer of learning onto the job for individual and organizational excellence.

If the assessee has been awarded any punishment in the consideration period as a result of disciplinary proceedings, the same is recorded. Any other adverse information that has come to the knowledge of the Management against the assessee officer will also be mentioned for the purpose of record.
shortcomings, adverse assessment (adverse remarks or a critical remark or a remark which indicates a significant fall in the standard of performance) given in the confidential reports is communicated to employees. Adverse assessment is communicated to the person concerned by the Reviewing officer. Minor shortcomings are communicated orally and major ones in writing to the employee concerned. But in the case of non-officers, all entries considered adverse by the Reviewing Officer are communicated in writing irrespective of whether they relate to major shortcomings or minor ones.

For all non-officer employees, the assessment will be made on calendar year basis. e-PMS/CRs are to be recorded in respect of periods of service exceeding 3 months unless the employee having rendered more than 3 months service in a particular year has been separated before the end of assessment year. Performance management system in IOCL identifies measures and communicates to the employee about their performance. The performance of an employee is obtained from their bosses. Firstly the employee gives their appraisal based on the KPAs given to them. The reporting officer writes his comments based on the performance of the employee. The same is counter checked by the reviewing officer who is normally the HOD of the concerned department. There is intervention of HR department while analysing the appraisal. In this kind of system the KPAs and KPIs are defined at the starting of the year. Hence the employee knows in which area he has to work hard and he can also plan how to manage the activities to achieve the targets given by
the management. The two tier system that is reporting and reviewing ensures transparency in PMS.
Career Management
Promotions in IOCL are effected based on the following criteria: i) Performance as reflected in Performance Appraisal/Confidential Reports
ii) Qualifications iii) Seniority iv) Discipline viz. Clearance from vigilance and disciplinary angle.

Top companies believe recruitment is a value-added process that is critical to the company's future These companies make recruitment a year-round priority and develop systems that ensure that candidates are smoothly identified and screened, receive offers targeted for success, and measure for continuous improvement. Among the key components of managing recruitment and selection as an ongoing core process are designing an automated front end to screen candidates, accurate corporate forecasting of recruitment needs, tracking key recruitment measures, and implementing strategies to deal with advancements and trends in the recruitment process. Identify and target multiple, rich sources of candidates and actively market to them. Many companies note that proactive targeting of Traditional corporate recruiting has candidate sources leads to a richer pool of applicants and enables companies to reach better candidates faster. stressed standard recruiting sources: on-campus recruiting, use of head hunters, and massive executive search processes. While each of these sources still plays a key role in the recruitment process, less traditional sources, most notably the Internet, now play enormous parts. Marketing to each source is an increasingly important facet of the recruitment process. Among the other sources that have been identified as important are: sourcing key candidates away from other companies, the importance of Internet marketing (both through corporate websites and through online searches such as monster.com and hotjobs.com), sources designed to appeal to flexitime candidates, and employee referral programs. Key practices for recruiting internal candidates and increasing the diversity of
the candidate pool have were also identified. Also included in this report are key techniques for marketing to these candidates. Staff the ongoing recruitment process with business-focused line managers who are coached and informed by recruiting experts. Companies with excellent recruitment systems emphasized the critical roles of both full-time recruitment staff and line personnel. In organizations with a commitment to recruiting excellence, line management is deeply involved at each stage of the recruitment process, including selection; after all, they will work closest with the new hires. Corporate recruitment personnel also take on key responsibilities: most notably serving as consultants and training the line personnel who are involved in the recruitment process. These roles free up corporate recruiting experts to perform more specialized roles and help streamline the HR function. Develop strong Internet recruiting capabilities to drive recruitment process efficiency and effectiveness. The Internet is particularly important in three areas of the recruitment process: identification of a larger number of candidates than previously was possible, automation of the screening process, and advertisement to potential targets. The Internet has considerable appeal, particularly to new college graduates and younger workers and executives. The web accelerates resume capture and processing, removing most of the steps from the old process. It also allows for faster review of the information and standardized applicant data, ultimately leading to greater productivity and effectiveness. Manage recruitment promotions as an integrated marketing
Top companies
view marketing to recruits as similar to customer-focused marketing. Recruiting marketers must pay attention to the same factors: reaching the right candidates with the right message in the right place for them to apply.
With this concept in mind, it is critical to identify the "win themes" that will attract top talent and align all recruitment messages with their needs.
