HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PROCESS IN PEL

Activities necessary for staffing the organization and sustaining high employees performance. Human Resource Planning (HRP) An effort to anticipate future business and environmental demands on an organization and to provide qualified people to fulfill that business and satisfy those demands; HRP includes talent inventories, human resource forecasts, action plans, and control and evaluation Planning is done to achieve the objectives positively according to vision and mission statement of the organization with time management. We can also say that HRP is parallels to general business planning. It is a process by which managers ensure that they have the right numbers and kinds of people in the rights places, and at the right times, who are capable of effectively and efficiently performing assigned tasks. PEL Planning and Forecasting basis on Fiscal Year In PEL planning is done on the basis of fiscal year. Firstly, the Budget is prepared in HR Department by each Manger of each section (Recruitment & Selection, Training & Development, Performance Management and Organizational Development) of HR and after that Head HR make the finalize the budget for the approval of owner via Managing Director. In PEL Human Resource Planning is done on the basis of Objectives or we can say in PEL management by Objectives (MBOs).
13
Management by Objectives (MBOs) A management system in which specific performance goals are jointly determined by employees and their managers, progress toward accomplishing those goals is periodically reviewed, and rewards are allocated on the basis of this progress. PEL Planning Year 2008-2009 Planning of this organization basis on MBOs. Some of the main objectives of HR planning which have been targeted in last year planning are as follows: Enhancement of RMS (Recruitment Management System) PEL has it own RMS which is used for hiring process and it is also used as a internal source of recruitment. Now the objectives of Recruitment and selection is completion of listing within RMS(listing module), contact information / consultant information, system generated alerts, system generated correspondence and letters and reference check, generating the pool of 20,000 resumes, (target: 5000 resume in each quarter) etc. (Annexure-I). Personal Development Third main objective of PEL R&S department is to implementation of productivity tools and techniques, personality assessments, improving communication skills, job analysis techniques, implementing stress management and time management and techniques. Recruitment Cost Every organization want to reduce the cost and enhance/ maximize profit so for the same purpose PEL is doing calculation of recruitment cost/other ratios related to R&S (Research) and implementation.
14
RMS Self service Module Another objective of PEL is the implementation of online short listing and Interview scheduling, alerts & proactive notifications to HOD / GM, interview evaluations and testing & implementation
HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PROCESS

The relationship of job analysis to HRP PEL has the total strength of 5,000 employees and its strength increased in season upto 6,000. In job analysis, HR Department analyze each department with the help of head of department that employees are working at their competencies level further at related or non-related positions. If the employees are at low competencies for that position they are trained so that they can be share their maximum skills for that position. Like, by identifying the behavioural requirement of a positions in a section, HR department said that total six employees are required in that section, in which, first is at manager level, and second an assistant manager level and remaining four are at executive level as well as the qualification and experience for that position holders. We can say that this planning is human resource planning at short time period. It has severance 50 employees on 19 September, 2008 for the right size of the organization by doing the job analyses. More understanding that to meet the challenges of the modern age, PEL hire new employees from different universities and some experienced and senior employees will hired form market in 2009. Their competencies will enhance the business opportunities. Types Of Plans There are three main types of planning which are as follows: 1. Strategic 2. Tactical 3. Human Resources
15
1. Strategic Planning Hunan Resource Planning An approach to human resource management that has the goal using people most wisely with respect to the strategic needs of the organization, ensuring that people from all levels of the organization are working to implement the strategy of the business effectively. This type of planning relates to long-range process of setting organizational objectives and deciding on action programs to achieve those objectives. This strategy effects also by the forecasts of economics; technology and market; and planning of organization; investment and operations. As PEL is opening five new display centers for home appliances (Air Conditioner of Window type and Split type and deep Freezer) and for power industry (energy meters, transformers, switchgears, Kiosks, compact stations, shunt capacitor banks etc.) distribution in different city of Pakistan in summer 2009. For these new centers 30 people in number will be recruited and their skills will at managerial level, executive level and fresh graduates also. With opening five new display centers how much budget and number of manpower will be required by keeping in mind changing in industry or creating tomorrow for that most important points are: Philosophy: In home appliances industry it will make a contribution that people will get these appliances the same requirements which they required at economical prices. Formulating identity of statement, purpose and objectives: According to mission statement of PEL display centers are have the same mission to providing electric goods and services by getting the customer satisfaction and maximum returns to all stakeholder with optimal uses. Evaluating strengths, weaknesses, and competitive dynamics: In appliances division Strength of the PEL is that it is providing the same capacity and power appliances as compare to its competitors (WAVES & DAWLANCE) and have low prices also. Similarly in power division major competitors are Simens (Pakistan), Climax limited, Elmetec, Alstom Pakistan, Escorts Pakistan Limited. These strengths meet the needs of middle level people as well as elite class level people. In weaknesses, its competitors have more goodwill in market and its brands are at
16
growing level. Overall world crises will also affect the import and local purchase of raw material. Changing in demographics and the future composition of the workforce. Determining design: In head office all components have completed in January 2009 and plans are at the end of the stage in January 2009. Each display center is connected with other center to coordinate with one another. In case of any deal, sale (credit sales), shortage of supply and transportation they can coordinate with one another under company rules. Developing strategies: Objective of the organization is measured in terms of quality as well as quantity. To enhance the sales of the organization PEL is going to enhance the sales and to increase the value of share in market. Devising programs: Regional Manger will visit the area to locate the best place in the city and understanding the nature, capacity (purchasing power) of people and will make a requisition which will include the procurement, sales, I.T. HR, marketing and other related management matters. National Sales Manger, Director General Marketing, Head HR and concerned authority is included in all management and budget will approved by the GM Finance. Head HR will plan the number of people required at what level etc with prescribed time period i.e. January 2009. 2. Tactical Planning This second type of planning relates to normal, ongoing growth of current operations or with specific problems that temporarily disrupt the pace of normal growth. Annual budgeting decisions provide specific timetables, planning details compulsory. 3. Human Resources Planning PEL HR department plans parallel to the business plans. Like according to the business strategies of PEL that 30 candidates are required for new display center. For hiring new candidates in respective of internal sources, first of all HR department will see its Recruitment Management System (RMS) i.e. internal pool of qualified candidates on its allocations of resources and implementations standards. The shorter the planning time frame, the more specific the
17
Human Resource Management System (HRMS) (Annexure-G & H). Secondly, mostly used approach in PEL is employees referrals. After that third approach is that HR department move to external sources i.e. supply of fresh technical graduates and business graduates (requirement of the PEL). After that all the implication for the candidates that includes staffing, training and development, performance evaluation, compensation practices, and other management matters. This short run (tactically) planning leads to long run (strategic) needs. PEL has a general view that several interrelated activities that together make up an integrated HRP system that includes: The relationship of Human Resource to Strategic, Tactical or Operational and Annual Budget Planning: As mentioned above that strategic planning perspective is the long-rang planning (2 to 5 years). In PEL plans are made on the basis of strategic planning and relates with HRP. The main focal point is to analyze the issues like assessing the management implication of future business needs, factors assessing external to the PEL (e.g. demographic and social) and estimating the internal supply of the employees over the long run. In this strategy detailed programmed are not made.

Tactical Operational planning relates with HRP as forecasting of employees and employee demand. The next step after the process of forecasting is actions plan undertaken. Annual budgeting decision provide specific timetables, allocations of resources, and standards for implementing strategic, and operational plans. As the time frame shortens, planning details become increasingly specific.
HR PROCESS ALSO INCLUDES: The general view suggested several specific, interrelated activities that together constitute an HRP system, they include: a) Talent Inventory b) Human Resources Forecast c) Actions plans d) Control and evaluation (a) TALENT INVENTORY: Human Resource Information System (HRIS) of PEL helps to collect the talent inventory in all over the organization. Talent inventory is attention on accessing the current human resources (skills, abilities and potential) and attention to analyze how they are currently being used so that actual HR forecasting is composed on record. It contains the record of all employees including managerial and nonmanagerial. HRIS contains all the competencies of the employees which include: Current position information Previous position in the company Other significant work experience (e.g. other companies) Education (including degrees, licenses, certifications) Languages skills and relevant international experience Training and development programmes attended Community or industry leadership responsibilities 19
Current and past performance appraisal data Disciplinary actions Awards received
So against the HRP of the PEL HRIS provide the talented inventory also.
(b) FORECASTING HR REQUIREMENTS
The human resource planning activity that predicts future human resource requirements, including the number of workers needed, the number expected to be available, the skills mix required, and the internal versusu external labour supply. In PEL forecasting is done on the basis of one year planning instead of employees turnover ratio. How much employees in the organization will remain and after how much new employees to be hired/recruited by HR department. In fact, this organization is managing all the HR related issues with respect to objective of the organization and the hiring new people on the basis on requisition form received from any department. It has a small focus on predicting the future HR requirements (the number of characteristics, the skills mix required, internal versus external labour supply). Less focusing on long term needs i.e. strategic planning.
METHODS TO FORECAST HR NEEDS There are two main methods to forecasting the HR Needs which are as follows:(i)- Forecasting Internal Human Resource Supply: The most common approach for new hiring and recruiting employees is forecasting internal human resource supply. Cruuent employees of PEL reflect the future supply of employees/labour. Performance Management Development (PMD) Section of HR department is working for internal human resource supply of management level and
20
Industrial Relations & Administration (IR&A) Section is forecasting for non-management employees (labour also). The process for developing such a plan including setting a planning horizon, identifying replacement candidates for each key position, assessing current performance and readiness for promotion, identifying career development needs, and identifying the career goals of individuals with company goals, the overall objectives, of course, is to ensure the availability, of competent executive talent in the future or, in some cases, immediately, as when a key executive dies suddenly. All this process is played in action by the PMD Section with the compliance of the Recruitment and Selection (R&S) Section. Current Strength: Talented inventory for forecasting internal human resource supply is provided by the plans of PMD Section (executive level) and IR&A (lower than executive level) also maintain the corporate level planning of the PEL. Loss Coverage: Under this method of forecasting losses are made up of resignations, dismissals, transfers, and retirements and these losses are assessed by historical data, modified by the current and future trends. Retirements figures are based on a review of individual retirement rages. PEL make the succession plans by cutting cost of this loss. Feedback: It is determined by PMD Section by two ways: (1) As a part of the annual appraisal process, mangers identify those employees who are considered promotable with the next 1 years planning cycle; and (2) In a separate annual process, mangers identify high-potential individuals who have the ability to progress to two responsibility level higher in more than one functionduring forecasting. 4 year
21
By forecasting the specific position requirements are the specific knowledge and skills, for the said purpose PEL make the individual careers as well as for the development of its career also. (ii)- Forecasting External Human Resource Supply Naturally, PEL required electrical graduates, business graduates and labour. So the distribution of the work depends upon the pre-described criteria. PMD and R&S section (PEL HR department) give the second preference to this approach of forecasting. But recruiting and hiring new employees is virtually essential for PEL as well as all the firms at least over the long run. In case of loss of internal supply of HR forecasting external supply helps also. R&S section further make HR supply in case of expansion of operations to normal workforce attrition. (iii)- Forecasting HR Demand In PEL, HR department (PMD and R&S Section) also have keep in mind forecasting HR demand as well as supply. It depends on changes in technology; consumer attitudes and patterns of buying behavior; local, national and international economics; number, size and types of contracts won or lost; and government regulations that might open new markets or close of old ones, just to name a few. Consequently, forecasts of HR demand are often more subjective than quantitative, although in practice a combination of two is often used. This forecasting is done by experts (Managers) who estimate the level of future demand for human resources. PEL select expert managers form corporate level planners like Head HR, National Sales Manger, DG Marketing and GM Procurement etc. (c)- Matching Forecast Results to Action Plan Action plans: PEL is doing its best efforts to complete the project with prescribed time period and to enlarge the pool of qualified candidates by such action plans like R&S section for recruitment, selection, and transfer; and PMD section for promotion, placement and development; T&D section for training and development; whereas IR&A for all labour issues and compensation also. Training programmes are designed to enhance the individual employee competencies as well as for group employees. The competent employees in PEL
22
also train the other colleagues competencies by given the special assignments under reporting officer. Control and Evaluation of HRP System The last and most important step which provides the feedback on the overall effectiveness of the HRP system is done by monitoring the degree of attained HR objectives. Feedback works as a backbone of the HR system. The main purpose of this step is to guide the HRP activities, identifying deviations from plans and causes of those deviations. PMS section monitors the performance under the performance evaluation tenure (quarterly). Quantitative objective maker the control an evaluation process more objective and measure deviations from desired performance more specifically.
23
EMPLOYEE RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION IN PEL Recruitment The process of locating, identifying, and attracting capable applicants. Decruitment Techniques for reducing the labour supply within an organization.

PEL has an OPEN DOOR policy. The objective is to build and promote an open, productive working relationship between employees, supervisors and management where their opinions and may be expressed openly, without fear of ridicule or reprisal.

If the problem is not handled or resolved at that level, the problem or complaints is forwarded to the Human Resources Department who listens to the problems and attempts to work out a satisfactory. However, on certain occasions when it is imperative to employees to directly take up the problem to the Managing Director due to the nature of the problems then he can do the same.

TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT

Training Planned programs designed to improve performance at the individual, group, and/or organizational levels. Development The managerial function of preserving and enhancing employees competence in their jobs through improving their knowledge, skills abilities, and other characteristics Training and development Phase of Training The phase whose purpose is to design the environment in which to achieve the objectives defined in the assessment phase by choosing methods and techniques and by delivering them in a supportive environment based on sound principles of learning. There is proper working in PEL HR department named as Training and Development (T & D) Section headed by Assistant Manager (T&D) with assistance of 3 executive level employees. During my internship I observed that PEL has two types of employees, one is at management level (JE to M6) and second is technical staff (S1 to NG). The source of training is performance evaluation report of employees in which reporting officer has mentioned that his subordinates required training or not. 1. Align learning with business After assessing the TNA form, type of programme is finalized and his/her learning programme is aligned with business objectives. Such as Sales Forecasting programme is aligned to enhance the business of PEL automatically.
39
2.
Integrate learning with HR and other business processes During my internship, I observed that the Sales Forecasting programme was integrated with business objectives that sales will increase the profit of PEL and it will also increase its share value in market. Similarly the HR vision will vision will meet its expectation like excellence people through innovative HR practices. People become talented and their competencies increased through training.
3.
Create a learning culture This learning programme (Sales Forecasting) was arranged in Auditorium of PEL. They set the mind of the employees that learning is activity will also be favourable in their own career. Employees are given certificate after the completion of training programme which build his/her career. So the employees automatically take interest in learning.
40
4.
Provide appropriate learning options In case of appropriate learning, PEL is offering only two options. One is in its factory position and other outside the organization. Other option is off-the-job training programme which also make the future of the employees independently to PEL.
5.
Manage learning effectively An agenda is finalized in which time period is mentioned and implementation is made accurately. During the training programme practical study case, business games and critical incidents etc. are given as assignments and their weighted is added in final marks. So the employees focus on their Grade on Certificate.
6.
Support application of skills in workplace During the training programmes employees are purely focused on its implementation on workplace. The result of the training programme outcome with at least 6 months. Application of training programme fully support the work. Training Design, Implementation Methods and Evaluation On the recommendation of the reporting officer training programmes are designed and Design of the programmes according to the level of employees and budget for training. Training programmes have also different methods for implementation. According to designed programmes and budget aspects trainers are hired and internal section do the planning. Most of the groups training is given in the Auditorium of PEL and individual training are given through external sources like LUMS, UMT and foreign countries. The best method is used for training for best learning of employees. Training channels used in PEL are Presentations of computer slides, audio visual and latest equipment and technology for technical staff. After the completion of the training employees are Evaluated through Evaluation form and normally training results outcome after 6 months at least.
41
TRAINING NEED ASSESSMENT (TNA)

To assess the employees that what type of training employees need. In PEL, T&D section has a from to asses the employees for training needs called Training Need Assessment (TNA) form e.g. form of Communication Skills (Annexure-G). After TNA forms collection T&D section adjust the employees either for on-the-job or off-the-job training. TNA form contain competencies of the employees like knowledge, skills (technical also), values, attributes and communication skills. Types of Training The following 16 main types of On-the-job Training adjust all the employees in PEL because these training programmes lead to mission and vision statement of the PEL. (Annexure-L) HR Skills for Line Manager Leadership Total Quality Management Communication Skills Strategy Making Problem Solving / Decision Making Skills Communication Skills Financial Skills Supply Chain Management Building managerial Competencies Lean Manufacturing Sales forecasting Time / Stress Management Team Building Negotiation Skills Finance for Non-Finance Manager MS- Intermediate level
42
MS- Advance Level EMPLOYEES DEVELOPMENT
The major techniques are using in PEL to develop employees are given below: (A) (B) Techniques for Individual Development Techniques for Group Development
(A)
TECHNIQUES FOR INDIVIDUAL DEVELOPMENT 1) Job Analysis and Description: PM section of PEL HR department do
assessment of the kinds of skills, knowledge, and abilities needed to successfully perform each job in an organization. Job Analysis Components PEL is focusing on following two major components which defines as:
Job description A written statement of what a job holder does, how it is done, and why it is done
Tasks, duties and responsibilities that the job entails.
Job specification A statement of the minimum acceptable qualifications that an incumbent must possess to perform a given job successfully
Knowledge, skills, and abilities required of the job
holder 2) Test and examinations: After given the training for the management development of the individual development trainer take the test by written test of the employees mean that
43
by adopting this simple method is to write a narrative description and employees strengths, weaknesses, past performance potential, and suggestions for improvement. The written essay requires no completes forms or extensive training to complete special test are Aptitude Intelligence Ability interest test batteries
3) Questionnaires: During and after training impel PEL trainer also ask questions which is also a good techniques for the development of management. The fist type provides a list of times to ticked, alternative answers to be selected, and blanks to be filled in. it could also have a scaled structure or require yes/no responses. The second type offers an opportunity to give a more complete and comprehensive picture of a situation.
4)
Interviewing: In PEL as well as in all the organization in the world this technique is
used for the development of the management and different purpose and many different ways. This purpose is to get information may concern Events Work results Knowledge behavior Attitudes Opinions values Habits Perceptions
44
5) Observation: This Company has also solution of the development problems apparent only through systematic care observations is done which help for development. Observing a regular management meeting, watching a Supervisor/Manger/HOD dealing with people or problems, or observing manager full time. 6) Critical Incidents: PEL also developing its employees individually by critical incidents, it is defined as: Evaluating the behaviors that are key in making the difference between executing a job effectively and executing it in ineffectively. For the management development a Supervisor/Manger/HOD see critical incidents by which the evaluator attention on the behaviors that are key in main the difference between executing a job effectively and executing it ineffectively. That is, the appraiser writes down anecdotes that describe what the employees did not vaguely defined personality traits. A list of critical incidents provides a rich set of examples from which the employee can be shown the behaviors that are desirable and those that call for improvement. 7) The Diary Method : In this company Supervisor/Manger/HOD also record the
activities over given period of time, selectively or be confined to events regarded as critical incidents can be done by diary method. So this approach is also a good development technique to achieve the objectives of PEL. 8) Management by Objectives (MBO): Basically in PEL employees are evaluated by how well they accomplish a specific set of targeted/assigned objectives to be critical in the successful completion of their jobs. 9) Self Assessment: This is a method in PEL by the order of HR department for self-assessment through which an individual will save his/her career by availing the opportunity to test present skills in an environment where he/she fails. So it helps to develop existing skills. 10) Career Planning:
45
Where the Supervisor/Manger/HOD of the PEL, compulsory to described objectives; there he has to also described the performance, behavior, competence and training need or the individuals for career planning. 11) Action Learning: In real life experiential learner is using real-life experiences to
change behavior or attitudes, also uses element of action learn learning. However, when describing experiential learning we have in mind not a set of techniques or a type of program but a broad concept of utilizing real-life experience to learning. Action learning comprises a set of logically interconnected activities that are structured specifically of achieving personal learning and organization change. 12) Training from abroad: In PEL Employees are also trained by international training seminars, session and institutions in respect of off-the-job training. Only GM level (M4) employees go to abroad for training to remain in-touch with latest technologies and according to the requirements of the organization. All the expenses are compensated by the PEL. In October, 2008 Mr. Waqar Khadim, Head HR went to abroad to attend the International HR Seminar in Germany for 10 days.
(B)
TECHNIQUES FOR GROUP DEVELOPMENT
After the sorting and analysis of TNA forms most of the employees fall in the same category training. So T&D section design the group plans for development of the employees which are as follows: 1) Group Meetings
An evaluation method that places employee into a particular classification, such as quartiles meeting in PEL . It requires the evaluator to place employees into a particular classification, such as top one-fifth or second one-fifth.
46
2) Group Projects: During on-the-job training in PEL groups are assigned a project like to opening a new unit for sale. Then SWOT analysis of the unit. Such a group projects serve a wide range of company objectives. In PEL two tend to prevail (i) a temporary group is established on a part-time basis, with the agreement and support of senior a management, (ii) a group is established with the combined objective of working on a practical problems and of learning specific skills in the course of this process.
4) Business Games A situational test in which candidates play themselves, not an assigned role, and are evaluated within a group. During my internship, I observed that trainer from UMT trainer the employees by the same practice. Firstly a group of 30 employees stand in an unshaped form not in proper circle and they catch the ball to each other. After 5 minutes trainer make a group of only 15 employees and they catch ball each other. In last, a group of only 5 boys stand in a circle shape and said to catch the ball in a circle shape also. Trainer drew the result if the employees work according to plan and direction they will have a clear objective and will get their target with prescribed time period. So this approach also develops the employees in management. 5) The case Method During the training of sales forecasting program, I observed that employees were assigned a case to enhance their sales by doing the SWOT analysis that how they forecast their sales with competitors. This method stimulates and synthetic work involved in preparing and proposing solution to business problems.
PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT
47
Performance Management System A process of establishing performance standards and evaluating performance in order to arrive at objectives human resources decisions as well as to provide documentations to support those decisions.
48
PEL Company makes the personnel movement to place employees in positions where their effectiveness is best utilized within the organization. This is achieved thorough proper matching of skills, capabilities individual aspirations of current employees against the current and potential manpower needs of the organization. Internal Advancement / Promotion PEL encourages internal advancement for advancement for employees. Seniority is not necessarily a factor in promotions. The ability to perform required duties well is the main consideration. Regular performance evaluation PEL holds regularly scheduled performance evaluation. The first evaluation takes place in 3 months after an employees start dated to give the employees a feel for who things are going early enough to make any necessary adjustment. If the evaluation goes well the employees is awarded regularly full time status. The next evaluation takes place one year after the employees start date and annually after that. Possible salary adjustments are considered at every annual performance evaluation. PERFORMANCE REPORTS WRITING STYLE In PEL performance report are written online in PMDP. Online forms are filled in its internal website and finally rating is done on the basis of competencies. Performance Management & Development Process (PMDP) in PEL Online forms are filled in PEL. They have their own internal online system which includes the following characteristics like: Performance reports include the following important particulars like: General Information of Employee: It includes the profile of the employee, appraisal status last year and name, ID, designation, cadre, section, education, joining date, previous experience, last promotion (Last/ No. of promotion).

Techniques for Evaluation

Some specific techniques in PEL are used for evaluation of employees performance are given below by which can be used by a manager: 1. Written Essay 2. Critical incidents 3. Graphic Rating Scales 4. Behavior Anchored Rating scales 5. Forced Comparisons 6. Multiple option of Evaluators like Senior Staff Member 7. Evaluate Selectively 1. Written Essay PEL company evaluate the employees i.e. by written test of the employees mean that by adopting this simple method is to write a narrative description and employees strengths, weaknesses, past performance potential, and suggestions for improvement. The written essay requires no completes forms or extensive training to complete. But in this method a good or bad appraisal may be determined as much by the evaluators working skill as by employees actual level performance. 2. Critical incidents Evaluating the behaviors that are key in making the difference between executing a job effectively and executing it in ineffectively. For the evaluation of the employees performance in PEL company a supervisor/GM/HOD can see critical incidents by which the evaluator will attention on the behaviors that are key
54
in main the difference between executing a job effectively and executing it ineffectively. That is, the appraiser writes down anecdotes that describe what the employees did not vaguely defined personality traits. A list of critical incidents provides a rich set of examples from which the employee can be shown the behaviors that are desirable and those that call for improvement so by using the critical incidents a can also evaluate the performance of the employee. 3. Graphic Rating Scales An evaluation method in which evaluator rates performance factors on an incremental scale. Managers in PEL also evaluate the performance of the employees by using this method that is one of the oldest and most popular methods of evaluation is use of graphic rating scales. In this method, a set of performance factors, such as quantity and quality of work, depth of knowledge, cooperation, antecedence, and initiative is listed.
The evaluator then goes down the list and rates each on incremental scales. The scale is specified in five points, such as job knowledge is rated 1 (poorly informed about work duties.) to 5 (has complete mastery of all phases of the job). Although they dont provide the depth of information that essay or critical incidents do, graphic rating scales are less time-consuming to develop and administrate. This method is also allow for quantitative analysis and comparison 4. Behaviorally Anchored Rating scales (BARS) Scales that combine major elements from the critical incident and graphic rating scale approaches: the appraiser rates the employees based on items along a continuum, but the points are examples of actual behavior on the given job rather
55
than general descriptions or traits. In this company behaviour and performance dimensions of employees are found by asking participants to give specific illustrations of effective and ineffective behaviour regarding each performance dimension. These behavioral examples are then translated into a set of performance dimensions, each dimension having varying levels of performance which is finalized by the Managers. 5. Forced Comparisons The fifth one method for PEL employee is to evaluate one individuals performance against the performance of another. There are two main ranks for forced comparisons Group order ranking Individual Ranking Group Order Ranking: An evaluation method that places employee into a particular classification, such as quartiles. It requires the evaluator to place employees into a particular classification. Evaluators are asked whether the employees ranks in the top 5 percent of the company, the next 5 percent, the next 15 percent, and so forth. But in this type of performance appraisal, managers deal with all their subordinates therefore, if rater has 20 employees only 4 can be in the top fifth and, of course, 4 must also be relegated to the bottom fifth. Individual ranking: An evaluation method that rank-orders employees from best to worst. If the manager is required to appraise 30 employees, this approach assumes that the difference between the first and second employees is the same as that between the twentyfirst and twenty second. Even though some of employees are closely grouped, to the lowest. 6. Multiple options of Evaluators like Senior Staff Member For the evaluation of the PEL company employees as the number of evaluators increases, the probability of attaining more accurate information increases. If rater error tends to follow a normal curve, an increase in the number of appraisers will tend to find the no ties are permitted. The result is a clear ordering of employees, form the highest performance down
56
majority congregating about the middle. We often see multiple evaluators in competitions in such techniques as driving and gymnastics. A set of evaluators judges a performance, the highest and lowest score are dropped, the final evaluation is made up of those remain. The logic of multiple evaluators applies to organizations as well so by using the multiple options by a senior staff members are evaluate better. 7. Evaluate Selectively By using this technique appraisers evaluate only in areas in which they have some expertise. This precaution increases the interpreter agreement and makes the evaluation a more valid process. It also recognizes that different organizational levels often have different orientations toward those being rated and observe them in different setting. In general, therefore, the individual being evaluated. Conversely, the more levels that separate the evaluator and person being evaluate, less opportunity the evaluator has to observe the individuals behavior and, not surprising, the greater the possibility for inaccuracies.
57

Promotions are based on an individuals qualifications, with emphasis on abilities, experience and performance, subject to a vacancy in higher grade. There is no any hard and fast rule for promotion in PEL for promotion. But on base of performance evaluation report and according to seniority the promotion are made both for executive and non-executive level employees. Normally a executive is promoted after the 3 year e.g. E3 cadre employee after 3 years is in E2 etc. TRANSFER
As the needs of the organization change, opportunities for transfer and promotion may be provided to qualified employees. Transfers is finalized in writing by the company to confirm the new position department and effective date. Transfer involves the movement of an employee from one position to another with the same grade level or from a one unit to another unit.

68
Allow maximum individual development when possible.

But there is no any single case of demotion in PEL that an employee has been demoted.
SEPARATION
LAYOFF On 19 September, 2008 PEL have Severance 50 employee (including management and non-management level) of different cadre. The reason was right sizing of the organization.

One reason for this case is that policies of the PEL is too much strictly implemented in such a case; and second, there are a few females in this organization.

In all cases of termination no contribution of Provident Fund is made. RESIGNATION a.

LABOR MANAGEMENT RELATIONS

Mr. Sher Afzal is the Head of Industrial Relations and Administration (IR&A) Department. All the labour related matters are handled by IR& A Department. Labour Union An organization that represents workers and seeks to protect their interests through collective bargaining.
Hierarchy of Non-Executive Staff S1 S2 S3 C1 NG Supervisor 1 Supervisor 2 Supervisor 3 Clerical 1 Non- Grade (Worker)
Types of Worker: Total 4,000 workers are working in this factory and it this strength increased in season about 1,500 workers more. Temporary/ Seasonal Worker Such a type of recruitment is made in February to April months in respect of order from market and demand in season or economical effects. So PEL require more worker than in routine work. Similarly its sales leads to enhance the profit. Permanent Worker After three or four year temporary worker are also done permanent on the basis of performance. The benefits are also given only to permanent worker not to temporary.
73
President and General Secretary PEL Labour is well established under a President, Umer Saleemi and General Secretary and Collective Bargaining Agent (CBA). Voting for Elections: The president and general secretary is selected by the voting in PEL. Shift All the employees related to manufacturing do the work in three shifts. Working Hours There are total working hour in one shift. If any worker does the work more than 8 hour then his time for work is considered as overtime. Overtime After eight hours of duty the working time period is counting as overtime and this factory is giving equal rate wages per hour. But in some organizations overtime is giving with continuous increased wage rate per hours. Wage Rate After the delectation of the Prime Minister of Pakistan on May 01, 2008 PEL has also upgraded their wages rate for labour i.e. Rs. 6,000. Labour Court Cases Mr. Saeed Ahmad in IR& A Department is handing the court cases.
74
CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE THEORETICAL CONCEPTS RELATING TO PRACTICAL EXPERIENCES HR department does not exist in some of the organizations in Pakistan. They think that HRP is only time wasting. Its also reflects that HR department is exist only in well established organizations as well as in growing level organization as in PEL. I have analyzed the following main points:
Employees Relations Section According to my theoretical study HR department a section for all the problems listening and solving that is call employees relations section. But in PEL, HR department there is no any Employees Relation Section by which problems of the employees can be understand and solved. This department will increase the efficiency of the PEL and objectives of HR are easy to achieve as well as vision statement of PEL. Proper Compensation & Management Section All the benefit to employees are handled in different section like in IR&A, Accounts and HR section. But according to theoretical concepts all the benefits are handled in one section that is called compensation and Management Section which does not exist in PEL in HR Department. So, I recommend that a C&M section should be introduced under umbrella of HR department.
No Policy for HR Planning PEL has no any policy for HR operations. According to theoretical study company should follow the following strategies to meet its vision statement of the PEL. Human Resource Planning Strategy Strategic planning
75
No Recruitment Budget PEL has no any recruitment budget for recruitment that finance cab be controlled. Low-grade RMS The Human Resources is at low grade there a lot of facilities in RMS software but they are using its completely. No any Employees Turnover Record PEL has no planning strategy so there is not existence of Employees Turnover record. This organization has no proper working on employees rotation and PEL is not making exact employees turnover in respect of Cadre, Designation (Executive, Manager) Department, Seniority etc. where its software includes all the operations. So, HR department must design turnover chart. No promotion Criteria Policy PEL has no promotional criteria by the Human Resource Department which is normally defined in books so that promotion disputes can be settled Compensation Section PEL has not any proper system for compensation to employees so in HR Department there must be a compensation management section. Focus on Retention of Employees Whenever there area section for compensation management in HR department then thorough proper compensation employees are retained within the organization and turnover chart shows less ratio of turnover employees rather than actual. Advancement in Computerized Working This is the era of Information Technology. The functions and procedures of the PEL should be converted from manual to the automatic. It will enhance the performance of the Human Resource Department and ultimately of the PEL. Human Resource Department should allocate resources for this purpose.
76
CONCLUSION
During the internship, I perceived conclusion that PEL HR Department is at growing level. Basically HR department support the other departments to solve the problems efficiently and effectively. In PEL, Human Resource Planning is done on the basis of objectives, not parallel to the corporate level strategy. It shows that its business is at growing level and its share value is at average level in market. First, in case of HRP, PEL HR Department is not working on annual basis that how much manpower (employees) are required at right place and at right time so that objectives of the organization can be achieved efficiently and effectively. Currently, R&S section is working on the basis of MRF (Manpower Requisition Form) whereas this section is responsible for annual recruitment that how much manpower, what skills and where it is required on yearly basis but R&S section is not working on such planning. In case of forecasting of manpower in PEL, now HRIS (Human Resource Information System) has been introduced in software of HRMS (Human Resource Management System) which has the record for human resource forecasting and in future it is proved helpful. It also includes employee personal record and RMS (Recruitment and Management System) for recruitment. Second, in case of performance management of employees, PEL is doing well working on its software i.e. PMDP (Performance Management and Development Program). PM section of PEL HR department maintain all the record (internal online) of all employees on PMDP software which also include the promotion, increment, salary, allowances, and recommendations for brilliant performance of employees. Third, T&D section maintains all the training related programs in respect of PM section and recommended & consultation of concerned HOD. On the basis of the annual budget, T&D section train the employees internally; by senior or by hiring the trainer, and externally; like training seminars at local, national and international level. Only GM/HOD Cadre employees go abroad for training. Forth, compensation and benefits related issues are solved by PM section with consultation and help of IR&A department & Finance Department.
77
Fifth, IR&A Section is working for labour management related issues like
wages for employees, overtime, health and safety, union affairs, attendance of employees, maintenance, In and out of factory transportation and other administrative related issues. On every Friday, HR Forum session held in which all the sections of HR department learn a moral lessons and discussion on section to section related issues as well as department to department, excluding other meetings of HR department. Finally, PEL is serving as a good partner in industrial sector of Pakistan. Overall it is considered at middle level in industrial sector after SIMENS and Dawlance and Waves. But it doing its best efforts to meet the competitors and technologies challenges. The main efforts are focusing on its advertisement section.
78
RECOMMENDATIONS
After doing the practical analysis is shall give some most important recommendation for PEL HR department section vise as follow:Policy making for HR Planning PEL is going on its own planning i.e. MBOs, but to meet its vision statement they should make the policies for corporate level like Human Resource Planning Strategy Strategic planning
Recruitment Budget PEL must plan a budget for recruitment so that financial budget can be controlled. Online Application Submission There should be online submission system of the application for the vacant job positioning on its website. Up-gradation RMS The Human Resources Department software should take less time in recruitment and training the staff. Employees Turnover Chart PEL HR department should make the proper turnover chart so that its planning strategy can exist for record of its employees. For proper working on employees rotation in respect of Cadre, Designation (Executive, Manager) Department, Seniority etc. then, HR department has the proper record for HRP. Enhance Training Centers More training centers should be established. If there is lack of resources, it is difficult, the training centers of the other organizations in the same capacity can be utilized by determining the terms and conditions.
79
Refreshing Courses Refreshing courses should be adequate and more frequent during the year. Competitive Evaluation by PMD The proper and competitive evaluation of the methods and procedures adopted by other competitors will enhance the performance of Human Resource Department. Promotion Criteria Policy The promotional criteria by the Human Resource Department should be defined and be as per rules. Agents for Promotion Policies Agents for the promotion of the PEL policies and to facilitate the customers by the Human Resource Department may be appointed with proper check and balance system. Emphasized on Ethical Values During the training by Human Resource Department the ethical values should be more emphasized. Compensation Section PEL has not any proper system for compensation to employees so in HR Department there must be a compensation management section. Revision of Pay Package Pay packages may be revised in the light of profit earned by the organization. Focus on Retention of Employees Whenever there area section for compensation management in HR department then thorough proper compensation employees are retained within the organization and turnover chart will show less ratio of turnover employees.
80
Strictly Implementation on HR Policies PEL has its own Manual and HR policies but there is not proper implementation on policies. In this regard, HR department must strict in their policies because true result can be taken. Employees in HR department must have complete knowledge of Manual and implementation. One Window Operation Human Resource Department may advice and train employees for one window operation in order to reduce the time and conserve the resources. Quarter-Based Meeting: In overall company schedules are not set for meetings. Weekly, monthly and quarterly meeting must be done to discuss the objectives of the business and achieved the target of the organization with prescribed time period. Education Allowance for Employees and their Children I recommend that PEL must determined the education allowance for employees as well for their children to retain the employees with the organization. Support Club fro Employees PEL should make the support club to retain the employees with the organization like TELENOR, NESTLE etc.
