Scope of Job Description: The job description clarifies what the role of the job is and what the incumbent is expected to accomplish while performing the job. This is particularly important for an effective performance evaluation process. It forms the groundwork for an agreement between the supervisor and the incumbent as to the expected job performance results. This is particularly important for an effective performance evaluation process and monetary decisions that relate to performance. The job description is a formal method of communicating work planning and feedback. This can help an organization identify areas of weakness of an incumbent and focus training efforts in these areas. Provides a clear, written expectation of performance and skills required, a definite asset for wrongful termination lawsuits or claims of prejudice and/or discrimination. It provides the reader with a clear understanding of the job's scope and nature. This is particularly valuable for recruiting as potential employees can obtain a clear understanding of the job during the interview. This allows potential candidates to determine whether the job is right for them, which in turn saves the organization valuable time and resources. A database of well-written job descriptions provides the Director, as well as co-workers with an understanding and appreciation for the how the job contributes to the achievement of the organization's goals. A database of well-written job descriptions provides the organization with solid legal backing with respect to any decisions made that relate to the job(s). Forms the basis for an effective system of job evaluation. By describing the functions of each job, an organization can then determine the relative "value" of the position for the purposes of establishing salary, and/or a salary range to a position

RECRUITMENT POLICY:
Objective: It is the policy of the Company to be an equal opportunity employer and to hire individuals on the basis of their qualifications and ability to do the job to be filled. Unless otherwise provided in writing, employment with the Company is considered to be at will, so that either party may terminate the relationship at any time and for any lawful reason Scope: Translating strategic business plans into capability requirements. Identifying current and future requirements for talent. Sourcing candidates for current and anticipated openings. Evaluating candidates against position requirements through assessment and interviewing tools. Measurement of all meaningful aspects of the process to guide future decisions.

Procedure: (1) Managers and department heads who need to fill a job opening or want to add a new job position should submit an employment requisition to the Human Resources Department for approval. All requisitions will be reviewed, but those for new job positions will be evaluated in greater detail before being approved. (2) The Company will normally try to fill job openings above entry level by promoting from within, if qualified internal applicants are available. In addition, the Company will normally give consideration to any known qualified individuals who are on layoff status before recruiting applicants from outside the organization. (3) If candidates from within the Company are to be considered for job openings, the Human Resources Department will post the openings in accordance with procedures contained in Promotion, Current employee candidates for the openings will be considered and processed as outlined in Policy. (4) If candidates from outside the Company are to be considered for job openings, the Human Resources Department will be responsible for recruiting the candidates and should use the recruitment methods and sources it considers appropriate to fill the openings. (5) During the recruitment, hiring, and Induction process, no statement should be made promising permanent or guaranteed employment; and no document should be called a contract unless, in fact, a written employment agreement is to be used. All employees of the Company should be aware that employment with the Company is at will and should not make any representations otherwise. (6) When candidates from outside the Company are to be considered for job openings, the following procedures should be implemented: Any candidate for employment must fill out and sign an employment application form in order to be considered for hiring. Applicants determined to be qualified for consideration for available job openings will be interviewed by the Human Resources Department and given any tests required for the job. If the Human Resources Department determines that the applicant is qualified for employment, a second interview should be arranged between the applicant and the head of the department with the job opening. The department head has the responsibility to determine whether an applicant is technically qualified for the open position and meets the other job-related criteria necessary to perform the job. The decision whether to hire the applicant is to be made by the department head, but must also have the approval of the Human Resources Department. Following a decision to hire the applicant, the Human Resources Department will make an offer of employment, which should include any necessary contingencies or disclaimers. The Human Resources Department will then determine whether the applicant has the legal right to work in the Country and, where appropriate, conduct credit, personal reference, and criminal conviction checks. A prior conviction, taken by itself, will not necessarily disqualify an applicant. If the applicant accepts the offer and a medical examination is required, the Human Resources Department should arrange it. If the background, medical, or any other subsequent investigation discloses any misrepresentation on the application form or information indicating that the individual is not suited for employment with the Company, the applicant will be refused employment or, if already employed, may be terminated.

The Human Resources Department is responsible for Induction of new employees and the processing of their employment forms; the Manager is responsible for any necessary job training.

RECRUITMENT PROCESS MAP:

SOURCES OF RECRUITMENT: The sources of recruitment are broadly divided into internal and external sources. 1. INTERNAL SOURCES: Internal sources are the most obvious sources, which include personnel already on the pay roll of an organization, commonly used method in PKL: Transfers and Promotions: A transfer is a lateral movement within the same grade, from one job to another It may lead to changes in duties and responsibilities, working conditions etc. but not necessarily salary. Promotion on the other hand, involves movement of employee in duties responsibilities, status and value.

Job posting In this method, the organization publicizes job openings on bulletin boards, electronic media and other similar outlets. One of the advantages of this method is that it offers a chance to highly qualified applicants working within the organization to look for growth within the company ,without looking for greener pastures. Employee referrals It means using personal contacts to locate job opportunities. It is a recommendation from a current employee regarding a job applicant. The logic is that employees working in the organization or those who have just joined in will have knowledge about people having similar skills. In fact, this has become a popular way of recruiting people in the highly competitive IT Sector. Companies offer rich rewards to employees whose recommendations are accepted after the routine screening and examining process is over.

2. EXTERNAL SOURCES: These sources lie outside the organization and usually include new entrants in the; about force. It includes three categories: direct, indirect and third party. Direct methods: Professional institutions. Employees contacts with public. Campus Interviews. Indirect methods Advertisements: in trade journals, newspapers, professional and technical journals. Job Portals: This method is appropriate when the organization intends to reach a large target group and wants a fairly good number of talented people who are geographically spread out. Job fairs: It helps in getting talent from various fields at one place. As the name suggests fairs are held on a particular day at a particular place where companies have their stalls and hopefuls can post their resumes or can be directly interviewed.

3. Third party methods: Private employment search firms: Recruiting firms & consulting Agencies. Employment exchanges: As a statutory requirement, companies are also expected to notify (wherever employment exchanges act, 1959,applies) their vacancies through respective employment exchanges. Walk-ins/Unsolicited applicants: Companies generally receive unsolicited applications from job seekers at various points of time. The number of such applications depends on economic conditions, image of the company etc.

RETENTION POLICY:
Objective: It is an objective of the company to recruit, train, motivate and sustain the employees for the long-term association with the Organisation. It is far more cost-effective to keep employees on the payroll than to constantly be seeking, interviewing, hiring, and training new employees. RETENTION TOOLS: 1. Challenge the employee Most employees want to find their job rigorous enough to be interesting, but not so difficult that it can't be mastered. To a great extent this depends upon realism in describing the job to an applicant in the first place (and of course the employee's honesty in characterizing his or her own skills). Applicants or employees seeking a promotion need honest information, both favorable and unfavorable, about an open position so that they have clear expectations about the job in store for them. At the same time, the employer must have a very accurate sense of the employee's ability to do the job described (e.g., whether the employee is skilled enough to accomplish the tasks expected or has too much ability to find the job at all challenging). 2. Training. Keep employees motivated and stimulated through good training and development programs. Stress the importance of personal development. Ensure the availability and importance of solid, ongoing training for employees. 3. Early intervention: Starting with an effective and ongoing Induction program, employees should be helped to adjust and get up-tospeed in the new environment. One way of doing this is through assigning a mentor-a good, positive employeeto each new worker. 4. Enrichment: Allow employees more autonomy and decision-making in their everyday work, add responsibilities to the employee's job, and improve the variety of the person's work tasks. 5. Mentoring: Develop a mentor program teaming veteran and new employees, and stress its importance. Reward mentorers for taking up the assignment.. For more information on job training, see the Training section, linked below. 6. Recognize employee success Does your organization or department have a way of recognizing exceptional employee performance? One way of accomplishing this might be an employee reward or bonus program, accompanied by a special note of thanks from the supervisor. Actually, the note of thanks need not be limited to exceptional doings, but should be used any time an employee accomplishes a task well, or expends extra effort. Choose an employee of the month and present a small award at an all-employee meeting. Send employees to represent the company at social functions, trade shows, or other meetings, conveying the worth of employee to the employer. 7. Create a career path Room to grow is probably the most important issue for talented and ambitious employees-the kind an employer doesn't want to lose. Good employees need to know that an organization has room for them to improve their careers; indeed, a leading reason for high turnover in an organization is that there is no career path, or it isn't made clear to employees. 8. Internal Promotion: Is there an internal posting system for openings-and does it work? Employees are quick to understand a sham posting system, and it is a major reason for cynicism and resentment in the workplace. Retention depends upon employee ability to grow and advance in the job, and internal posting is a critical element. Employees head for the door when they realize there is no room for them to advance. They want more money, yes, but also recognition for achievements in the old job and room to grow in a new one. 9. Manage pay and benefits Pay is far from least important-but it isn't necessarily first either. Employees, of course, want good pay and good raises for doing their jobs well. They want bonuses for exceptional performance on important projects. . There are the traditional benefits-and of course they must be in place: health insurance, employer-contribution

savings plans, insurance, paid vacation, etc. But more innovative benefits can make the difference: flexible hours, telecommuting, flexible dress codes, education subsidies, and daycare in the workplace or pretax contributions to daycare, stress reduction programs, tax-preparation programs, financial guidance programs, and many more. Some more-conservative employers will want to emphasize more traditional benefits; more freewheeling employers may seek nontraditional benefits such as allowing pets at work or holding free exercise classes in the lunchroom. It depends upon the nature and culture of the workplace. 10. Exit Interview: The results of surveys or exit interviews should be reviewed, considered, and used as a platform for change.

PAY DAY Salary disbursements are made monthly in arrears - you will be paid on first day of every month for the preceding calendar month. If a payday falls on a non-working day, employees will be paid the preceding workday.

PAY PERIOD The pay period is a calendar month and the salary will be directly deposited in the bank account of the employee with the bank designated by the company. It is strongly recommended that each employee open a bank account in the designated bank for depositing his/her salary to ensure early availability of funds. A pay slip listing the details of monthly salary and deductions will be issued to each employee for the purpose of his / her record and information at the end of the month. In the event of an employee not wishing to open an account in the designated bank, he / she will be issued a cheque for the net take-home amount. The company will not be responsible for any delays in clearing and all costs incurred on account of a cheque getting lost/misplaced / disfigured will be to the account of the employee concerned.

BENEFIT MANAGEMENT:
Objective: 1. To retain people in the Organisation. 2. To increase an improve employee morale. 3. To provide social security to employees. 4. Gain the loyalty and cooperation, encouraging them to greater productive efforts. Scope: Benefits often have a higher impact on employee recruitment and retention than compensation. Employees who know their needs are met are also more likely to contribute to a positive morale. Attracting new employees. If a company seeks to attract outstanding employees plans should be designed that have minimal waiting periods for eligibility, early participation and short vesting periods. Reducing turnover. One of the ways a benefits program can reduce turnover, is for the benefit system to be more progressive in its rewards, with service rewards and penalties for early termination. One key way of motivating employees places an emphasis on incentive provisions. Employee security objectives: Security interests offer employers the best chance for meeting employee benefits concerns. Benefits such as sick pay protect employees security needs by preventing lost income. The goal is to increase employee peace of mind.

Procedure: Measurement: The benefit program can be measured according to a management-by-objectives approach, whereby a periodic assessment of progress against stated goals is undertaken. Continuous assessment of employee needs through informal interviews and meetings or formal surveys is necessary. Priorities: Measuring the relative importance of services to employees and how well current programs are meeting stated needs offers a good indication of whether any revisions to the benefits programs are needed. Work force demographics change constantly, as do employee expectations, legal requirements, competitive pressures and benefit alternatives. Trends and benchmarking: In order to get the most employee satisfaction and company return on the benefit plan, the company must be in tune with the changes in benefit opportunities and the requirements of employees and be able to adjust to those changes. Trends in restructuring or reengineering welfare plans should be explored. Benchmarking--both in terms of industry competitors and geographic competitors and also against best practices--is periodically necessary.

PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL SYSTEM: Objective: It is the policy of the Company that the employees Manager should evaluate the job performance of each employee periodically. Procedure: (1) Managers should complete performance appraisals upon the following occasions: By the end of the first three months or Six months of employment In conjunction with the annual salary review or on the anniversary date of employment When the employee is transferred or promoted to a new job. When the employee is assigned to a new Manager; and When a reduction in staff is necessary If a performance appraisal has been completed within three weeks of the above occasions, a new appraisal does not need to be completed. Between scheduled appraisals, Managers should discuss with employees on an informal basis any performance issues that require attention and should keep records of any significant incidents. (2) In evaluating employees, Managers should consider factors such as the experience and training of the employee, the job description, and the employees attainment of previously set objectives and goals. Other factors that normally should be considered include knowledge of the job, quantity and quality of work, promptness in completing assignments, cooperation, initiative, reliability, attendance, judgment, conduct, and acceptance of responsibility. (3) Managers should prepare a written appraisal of each employees job performance. The appraisal should include the Managers comments and recommendations, an action plan for both the employee and Manager, and performance goals for the next evaluation period. (4) Department heads should review each Managers written evaluation to help assure that the evaluation function has been properly completed in as fair and objective a manner as possible.

TRAINING: Objective: The objective is to develop the employee skills and knowledge at the same time to reach the desired outcome of the organization and the employees performance. Scope: The Company is committed to providing both the training necessary to ensure the job is done effectively and to allow each employee to further professional development. Employees will be authorized to attend training programs based on their development needs and the requirements of the organization. A list of available training programs (external and internal) will be maintained and, on approval of the employee's manager attendance will be supported Procedure: 1) Employees must ensure that the organization has consented to the training program before enrolment. Employees will be authorized to attend training programs based on their development needs and the requirements of the organization. 2) Employees must use the Training Request form if they are interested in enrolling for a program e 3) It is important that employees enter their training information into the training record once they have completed training. TRAINING LIFECYCLE SYSTEM 1. Goals and activities Articulate goals. Goals set the boundaries of the system. After a goal is articulated, assign the resources required to meet the goal. Establish a formal program. Generally, training requires a formal program to be efficient. Use a team approach in training design, development and evaluation to ensure support, commitment, needs assessment and a comprehensive approach. Make sure the team is motivated, trained and well led.

2. Analysis Determine what needs are unmet and project training requirements. Prioritize needs. Use various assessment methods to ensure that the needs are real and based on job needs. Determine delivery for needs.

3. Development Construct measures for determining training success based on the tasks the trainee must perform on the job. Demonstrate or simulate tasks in class. All measures for successful completion of training must be met. Exceptional performance of one task cannot compensate for substandard performance of another task. Create tools to evaluate the training in addition to job tasks. Typically these instruments include questionnaires, rating scales and/or interviews.

Create performance-based objectives that can be measured. State the critical tasks in performance terms. Choose a delivery system that is cost-efficient, available and appropriate. Create training program content by taking each training objective and analyze the concepts, principles and tasks associated with skill(s) necessary to complete the task successfully. Determine the presentation of the content based on learning theory and appropriate sequencing. Determine appropriate teaching methods (lecture, conference, distance learning, case studies, etc.), devices (television, computers, audio visual aids) and organization (group size, team teaching). Each decision had advantages and disadvantages. Consider testing new strategies. Create teaching aids. Create actual teaching materials such as lecture outlines, syllabus, audiotapes and handouts. Validate materials. Determine the equipment needed, location and quantity. Be sure to conform to existing standards. Assess whether or not trainers are available. If not, select and train against a list of instructor prerequisites. Produce lesson plans, any programmed materials and include course in training offerings. Produce course/program publicity pieces.

4. Evaluation Create prerequisites for training participants. Screen potential trainees. Select trainees with appropriate prerequisites. Create evaluation methods for prerequisites. Conduct training. Design evaluation devices that measure variables. Ensure participants evaluate every training course/program. Analyze and report participant evaluations. Measure trainee performance on performance criteria. Advise trainees of performance measurements. Use valid scoring and analyzing methods. Report results. Evaluate the training function itself. Use instruments to determine ongoing instruction, and secure feedback from participants, managers and trainers. Use objective methods when possible. Follow up periodically with past participants and their superiors. For larger groups, use statistical sampling methods. Calculate cost-benefit analysis for every program offering. Report results widely. Incorporate all of the feedback into assessment of the program. Modify as necessary. Create a continuous feedback/evaluation/modification process.

PROCESS MAP FOR TRAINING:

Training methods are usually classified by the location of instruction. They are basically classified into on-the job and off the job training. The widely used methods are as follows:

1) On the job training Job instruction training (JIT): The JIT method is four-step instructional process involving preparation, presentation, Performances try out and follow up. It is used primarily to teach workers how to do their current jobs. A trainer, supervisor or co-worker acts as a coach. The four steps are as follows: 1. The trainee receives an overview of the job, its purpose and its desired outcomes, with a clear focus on the training. 2. The trainer demonstrates the job to give the employee a model to copy. The trainer shows a right way to handle it. 3. The employee then is permitted to copy the trainers way. Demonstration by the trainer and practice by the trainee are repeated until the trainee masters the right way to handle the job. 4. The employee then is permitted to copy the trainer's way. Demonstration by the trainer and practice by the trainee are repeated until the trainee masters the right way to handle the job 5. Finally, the employee does the job independently without supervision

Coaching and mentoring: Coaching is a one-on-one relationship between trainees and supervisors, which offers workers continued guidance and feedback on how well they are handling their tasks. Mentoring is a particular form of coaching used by experienced executives to groom junior employees. Job rotation: This kind of training involves the movement of trainee form one job to another. It helps him to have a general understanding of how the organization functions. Apart from releasing job monotony, it allows workers to build rapport with a wide range of individuals within the organization, facilitating future cooperation among departments. The cross-trained personnel offer a great amount of flexibility for organizations when, transfers, promotions or replacements become inevitable. The drawback being that it does not give enough room to integrate resources properly and trainees get confused when exposed to rotating managers, with contrasting styles of operation. Apprenticeship training: Apprentices are trainees who spend a prescribed amount of time working with an experienced guide. An internship is a kind of on the job training that usually combines job training with the classroom instruction in different institutions. The drawback of this method is that the slow learners may find it difficult to complete training within the specified time. Committee assignments: In this method trainee is asked to solve an actual organizational problem. They have to work together and offer solution to the problem. This method helps them to develop team spirit and work unitedly towards common goals. It is cost effective and workers actually produce while they learn. Since immediate feedback is available, they motivate trainees to observe the right way of doing things. The drawback being that that it may cause disruptions in production schedules and experienced workers cannot use the facilities that are used in training.

2) Off the job methods: Under this method of training, the trainee is separated from the job situation and his attention is focused upon learning the material related to his future job performance. Since the trainee is not distracted by job requirements, he can concentrate on learning the job rather than spending his time in performing it. The following are a few methods: Vestibule training: In this method, actual work conditions are simulated in a classroom. All equipments used in actual job performance are used in training. Role-playing: This method of training involves action, doing and practice. The participants plat the role of certain characteristics, such as the production manager, supervisors etc. It is mostly used for developing interpersonal interactions and relations. Lecture method: This is a traditional method where the instructor organizes the material and gives it to a group of trainees in the form of a talk. The advantage being that it can direct a large group of trainees reducing the cost and time involved. The major limitation being that it does not provide for transfer of training effectively. Conference/discussion approach: In this method, the trainer delivers a lecture and involves the trainee in a discussion so that his doubts are cleared. Programmed instructions: In this method the subject matter, which has to be learned, is presented in a series of carefully planned sequential units. This is a time-consuming and expensive method as the trainee goes through the units by answering questions or filing the blanks.

Behaviorally Experienced Training: Some training programs focus on emotional and behavioral learning (mostly at The executive level). Here employees can learn bout their behavior by role- Playing in which role players attempt to act their part in respect of a case, as they would in real life situation. Business games, group discussions, short assignments, sensitivity training are examples of this method. The focus of experiential methods is on achieving a better understanding of oneself and others.

Employees at different levels require training Unskilled workers require training in improved methods of handling machines and materials to reduce the cost of production and waste and to do the job in the most economical way. Such employees are given training on the job itself, and their immediate superior imparts training. Semi-skilled workers require training to cope with the requirements of an industry arising out of adoption of mechanization, rationalization and technical processes. These employees are given training either in their own sections of departments or in segregated training shops and other facilities are usually available. The more proficient workers, bosses or inspectors and lasts usually impart the training for a few hours. Training methods include instruction in several semi-skilled operations because training in one operation only creates difficulties in adjustments to new conditions, lends the color of specialization to a job. Skilled workers are given training through the system of apprenticeship, which varies in duration.

25 I have to dispose off my work hurriedly owing to excessive workload. 26 Iam unable to perform my duties smoothly owing to uncertainty and ambiguity of the scope of my jurisdiction and authorities. 27 Iam not provided with clear instructions and sufficient facilities regarding the new assignments trusted to me. 28 In order to maintain group-conformity sometimes I have to do/produce more than the usual. 29 I bear the great responsibility for the progress and prosperity of this Organisation. 30 My opinions are sought in framing important policies of the Organisation department. 31 Our interests and opinion re duly considered in making appointments for important posts. 32 My colleagues do co-operate with me voluntarily in solving administrative and industrial problems. 33 I get ample opportunity to develop my aptitude and proficiency properly. 34 My higher authorities do not gi e due significance to my post and work. 35 I often feel that this job has made my life cumbersome. 36 Being too busy with official work Iam not able to devote sufficient time to my domestic and personal problems. 37 It is not clear that what type of work and behaviour my higher authorities and colleagues expect form me. 38 Employees attach due impo0rtance to the official instructions and format working procedures. 39 Iam compelled to violate the formal and administrative procedures and policies owing to group/political pressures. 40 My opinion is sought tin changing or modifying the working system instruments and conditions. 41 There exists sufficient mutual co-operation and team spirit among the employees of this Organisation/Department. 42 My suggestions and co-operation are not sought in solving even those problems for which Iam quite competent. 43 Working conditions are satisfactory here from the point of view of our welfare and convenience. 44 I have to do such work as ought to be done by others. 45 It becomes difficult to implement all of a sudden the new dealing procedures and policies in place of those already in practice. 46 Iam unable to carry out my assignments to my satisfaction on account of excessive load of work and lack of time.
