3.6 Comments on the Organizational Structure.

The structure of service industry limited Gujrat is functional. Hierarchy of each

department is defined according to need of organization. It has large number of
departments in which positions are grouped according to their main functional (or
specialized) area. There are very few cases at SIL Gujrat where two or more
department are being headed by a single person like canteen and shoe division.
Typical functional form of organization has several major advantages that the
service is enjoying that are.
 In-depth development of expertise is encouraged.
 Employees have clear career paths within their specified function.
 Resources are used more efficiently.
 Economies of scale may be possible because of specialized people and
equipment.
 Intradepartmental coordination is facilitated and it improves efficiency.
 Specialized technical competencies may be developed and may constitute a
competitive advantage.

There is a long chain of command, each chain member having one or more
subordinates there are large number of level like resident director, general
manager, managers, Assistant managers, executives, staff, supervisor, and workers.
A very short spans of control each member having. Every manager at SIL is trying to
keep most of the authority in his own hands; they are not willing to delegate these
powers to the subordinates and or at continuous try to increase their power by
holding maximum resources. They also keep the key decisions at their own and do
not interested to share the key matters with team members.

Industrial Relation Department

Industrial relation is the department which regulates the relation between worker
and the employer. This department is found in big labor intensive organizations. Its
major function is the regulation of relations between employer and workmen, by
avoidance and settlement of any differences or disputes arising between them.
Industrial Relation is one of the most important and beneficiary ingredient for
successful industry and it is the part and parcel of the management.

Functions of Industrial Relation Department.

IR performs two types of major functions for any organization.

 Outside the organization, not only for the welfare of workers but also for the
goodwill.

Within the organization IR department perform Functions for regulation of relations

between the employer and workmen after written agreement between both legal
parties.

industry can run its business effectively. Because if the workers have negative
thoughts about the organization, it cannot produce the best brands and more
production.

4.7 Human Resource Department

Human Resource Department manages the workforce of any organization. It is the

most tough task to manage human rather than managing any resource else. The HR
department acts like a bridge between the organization staff and the top
management. The functions of HR department are: to attract, hire and retain the
workforce of sufficient quantity and quality, organize duties and profiles of each and

corporate.

 Recruitment.

The HR department recruits both the workers and staff. The recruitment process
starts with the placement of demand by departments. Mostly recruitment of workers
and lower level staff is done internally and references are used. But for the posts of
upper level staff and managers, news paper and companies website is used to
display ads of jobs. They also consider the relevant available CVs as well. They also
can fire the employee for bad performance.

 Selection.

HRIS is the software that is used in most HR departments to perform the activities of
employee management. It is used for data entry, data management, data tracking
as it is needed by the department, and payroll management. It works with the
support of Database. Every organization has different type of HRIS according to
their need. The HRIS being used in Service Industry contains most of the function.
But following are the some functions on which I worked during my internship.

Personal management.

because it is difficult to alter wrong entry, specially the entry of Date of Joining.
When the data is entered we say the employee account is activated.

when he is transferred to another department or when he leaves the industry.

4.11 Summary of the Learning.

The internship program was very helpful for me as for as learning is concern. I got
many experiences that contributed in my learning. I learnt variety of skills and
qualifications as well. I learn how to behave with workers in different situation.

The interaction with employees should be friendly, so that employee can feel
comfortable while sharing his problems. Give respect to your workers because they
are the ultimate producers of the product . When workers are satisfied then they are
loyal with the organization. Organization’s success depends on the devotion of the
workers. If you are unable to keep your employees satisfied then it is not productive
for the organizations.

FAMS
 Services shoes industry 42

Another skill I have learnt is the adaptation. The process of adjustment is very
tough. I observed the smoothness works are being done in the departments and the
Integration of activities with each other.. I have also faced some hard time during
my internship which helped me to be responsive and strong.

The important skill that I gained is the skill of management. I learned that how to
manage different kind of activities, and workers and how to resolve their queries in
order to keep them satisfied. I also learned in different situations which disciplinary
actions can be taken. I deeply observed the hiring process of the organizations
which helped me to understand the organizational point of view about recruitment
and selection.

Chapter no 5
Conclusions

5.1. Summary of Key Conclusions.

Internship is very important element in our MBA course. It is imperative for every
student of Business to have some practical knowledge; we cannot rely only on
books to be a Good Businessman. Internship not only increases our knowledge but
also play a vital role for having job in any organization. It is counted as experience
of field work. It enables us to face hard time because many of us struggle for their
internship, especially when we go for finding the organization of your interest.
Internship provides us chance to create links with professional people.

They have centralized organizational structure but quickly pass out their decisions
to grass root level. They have fixed employees for a particular job for getting job
specialization. They divide the order into small plans and distribute the planning
sheet to the different departments. Material date is confirmed before time. They
have very strong communication pattern and network. Meeting are occurs on
regular basis. Sometimes emergency meetings are called in conflict situation.

departments. If any wrong action occurs it take notice and provide help about the
issue. There are suggestion boxes for the employee. These suggestions are noticed
on weekly basis.

5.5 Recommendations.

On the basis of my observation I would like to suggest some recommendations to

the SIL Gujrat.

 Company can expand its operations to Middle East market it has the
chance to become multinational due to shift in politics in Middle East.

FAMS
 Services shoes industry 48

 Using the internet and E-commerce technology to drastically cut costs

the management is reluctant to consider roll of information technology
factor in reducing cost.
 Special incentives should be given to Head on Eid and on other special days
should be given to the workers.
 Different training courses should be arranged for the up lifting and improving
the quality of work for employees
 They provide transportation facility to only female employees I think male
should
also be provided with conveyance convenience. This will create the easiness
for
workers and reduce the wastage of time.
 There should be a proper accommodation for the vendors and visitors.
 There is also a problem of work overload for the employees and it should be
control properly so that the employees are motivated .
 It was also observed that distribution of work load was not proper. So,
the duties and tasks should be rearranged for the staff.
 They should have to decentralize the management decision. That will
build trust
on low level managers and they will be confident.
 The HR department should arrange the programs for the motivation of
employees. The selection of employees should be on merit and not by the
references.
 They should have to induct some fresh and energetic staff by replacing the
old
Employee.
