INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION TO HRM:
Human resource management (HRM) is the management of human resource .It is a
function in the organizations designed to maximize employee performance in service of
an employer's strategic objectives.HR is primarily concerned with the management of
people within organizations, focusing on policies and on systems. HR departments and
units in organizations typically undertake a number of activities, including employee
benefits design, employee recruitment, "training and development", performance
appraisal, and rewarding. HR also concerns itself with organizational change
and industrial relations, that is, the balancing of organizational practices with
requirements arising from collective bargaining and from governmental laws.
HR is a product of the human relations movement of the early 20th century, when
researchers began documenting ways of creating business value through the strategic
management of the workforce. The function was initially dominated by transactional
work, such as payroll and benefits administration, but due to globalization , company
consolidation, technological advances, and further research, HR as of 2015 focuses on
strategic initiatives like mergers and acquisitions, talent management, succession
planning, industrial and labor relations, and diversity and inclusion.
Human Resources are a business field focused on maximizing employee productivity.
Human Resources professionals manage the human capital of an organization and focus
on implementing policies and processes. They can be specialists focusing in on
recruiting, training, employee relations or benefits. Recruiting specialists are in charge of
finding and hiring top talent. Training and development professionals ensure that
employees are trained and have continuous development. This is done through training
programs, performance evaluations and reward programs. Employee relation deals with
concerns of employees when policies are broken, such as harassment or discrimination.
Someone in benefits develops compensation structures, family leave programs, discounts
and other benefits that employees can get. On the other side of the field are Human
Resources Generalists or Business Partners. These human resources professionals could
work in all areas or be labor relations representatives working with unionized employees.
Businesses are moving globally and forming more diverse teams. It is the role of human
resources to make sure that these teams can function and people are able to communicate
cross culturally and across borders. Due to changes in business, current topics in human
resources are diversity and inclusion as well as using technology to advance employee
engagement. In the current global work environment, most companies focus on
lowering employee turnover and on retaining the talent and knowledge held by their
workforce. New hiring not only entails a high cost but also increases the risk of a
newcomer not being able to replace the person who worked in a position before. HR
departments strive to offer benefits that will appeal to workers, thus reducing the risk of
losing corporate knowledge.
MEANING OF HR:
Hr means that management can get and use the skill, knowledge ability, etc. through the
development of skills, tapping and utilizing them again and again. Human resource
management is that process of management which develops and manages the human
elements of enterprise. It is not only the management of skills but also the attitudes and
aspirations of people. When individuals come to work place, they come with not only
technical skills, knowledge, experience etc., but also with their personal feelings,
perception, desires, motives, attitude, values etc. so HRM will mean management of
various aspects of human resources.
DEFINITION OF HR:
According to Flippo, Human resource management is the planning ,organizing, directing
and controlling of the procurement , development, compensation, integration,
maintenance and reproduction of human resources to the end that individual,
organizational and societal objectives are accomplished.
According to Institute of personnel management (U.K.), Personnel Management is an
integral but distinctive part of management concerned with people at work and their
relationship with the enterprise. It seeks to bring together into an effective organization
the men and women who staff the enterprise enabling each to make his/her best
contribution its success, both as a member of a working group and as an individual. It
seeks to provide relationships within the enterprise that are conducive both to effective
work and human satisfaction.
According to G.R. Agarwal, human resource management is a process concerned with
the management of human energies and competencies for achieving organizational goals
through acquisition, development, utilization and maintenance of a competent and
committed workforce in a changing environment.
According to Gary Dessler, Human resource management refers to the policies and
practices one needs to carry out the people or human resource aspects of management
position including recruiting, screening, training, rewarding and appraising.
SCOPE OF HRM:
HRM in Personnel Management: This is typically direct manpower management that
involves manpower planning, hiring (recruitment and selection), training and
development, induction and orientation, transfer, promotion, compensation. The overall
objective here is to ascertain individual growth, development and effectiveness which
indirectly contribute to organizational development. It also includes performance
appraisal, developing new skills, disbursement of wages, incentives, allowances,
traveling policies and procedures and other related courses of actions.
HRM in Employee Welfare: This particular aspect of HRM deals with working
conditions and amenities at workplace. This includes a wide array of responsibilities and
services such as safety services, health services, welfare funds, social security and
medical services. It also covers appointment of safety officers, making the environment
worth working, eliminating workplace hazards, support by top management, job safety,
safeguarding machinery, cleanliness, proper ventilation and lighting, sanitation, medical
care, sickness benefits, employment injury benefits, personal injury benefits, maternity
benefits, unemployment benefits and family benefits.
FEATURES OF HRM:
The principles and practices of HRM should not be rigid. Rather they should be dynamic.
It means HRM is a dynamic function whereby the procedures and practices are
influenced by the environmental factors. Employees should gain an updated knowledge
and ability to work in the changing environment
HRM is a universal function in the sense that it is applicable in all types of organizations.
The principles and practices are applied irrespective of size, nature, scope and purpose of
the organization.
6. Integration of Goals
Usually there is a goal difference between organizational goal and individual goal. An
employee wants to satisfy his/her individual goal first. But managers want to accomplish
organizational goals before something else. Hence, HRM practices and principles help in
integrating individual and organizational goal into a framework. As a result of which,
employees are motivated towards higher level work performance for achievement of
organizational goal.
HRM is future oriented behavior in the sense that it helps in assessing human resource
requirement for future. It helps in determining future goals and objectives of the
organization and it employees the people to get the job done in future period of time.
IMPORTANCE OF HRM:
1. Recruitment and Training
It is one of the major responsibilities of the human resource team. The HR managers
come up with plans and strategies for hiring the right kind of people. They design the
criteria which is best suited for a specific job description. Their other tasks related to
recruitment include formulating the obligations of an employee and the scope of tasks
assigned to him or her. Based on these two factors, the contract of an employee with the
company is prepared. When needed, they also provide training to the employees
according to the requirements of the organization. Thus, the staff members get the
opportunity to sharpen their existing skills or develop specialized skills which in turn,
will help them to take up some new roles.
2. Performance Appraisals
4. Managing Disputes
In an organization, there are several issues on which disputes may arise between the
employees and the employers. We can see conflicts among them. In such a scenario, it is
the human resource department which acts as a consultant and mediator to sort out those
issues in an effective manner. They first hear the grievances of the employees. Then they
come up with suitable solutions to sort them out. In other words, they take timely action
and prevent things from going out of hands.
The responsibility of establishing good public relations lies with the HRM to a great
extent. They organize business meetings, seminars and various official gatherings on
behalf of the company in order to build up relationships with other business sectors.
OBJECTIVES OF HRM:
1. To create and utilize an able and motivated workforce, to accomplish the basic
organization goals.
2. To utilize the available human resources effectively.
3. To establish and maintain sound organizational structure and desirable working
relations among all the members of the organization.
4. To secure the integration of individual and groups within the organization by
coordination of individual and group goals with those of organization.
5. To create facilities and opportunities for individual or group development so as to
match it with the growth of the organization.
6. To respect the individual and company relationships with the highest standard of
conduct and integrity.
7. To be close to the customer through employees.
8. To identify and satisfy individual and group needs by providing adequate and equitable
wages, incentives, employee benefits and social security and measures for challenging
work, prestige, recognition, security, status, etc.
FUNCTIONS OF HRM:
The function performed by the resource management can broadly be classified into two
categories, which are:
Planning:
Organizing:
Organizing is a process by which the structure and allocation of jobs are determined.
Thus organizing involves giving each subordinate a specific task establishing
departments, delegating authority to subordinates, establishing channels of authority and
communication, coordinating the work of subordinates, and so on.
Staffing:
It is a process by which managers select, train, promote and retire their subordinates This
involves deciding what type of people should be hired, recruiting prospective employees,
selecting employees, setting performance standard, compensating employees, evaluating
performance, counseling employees, training and developing employees.
Directing/Leading:
Directing is the process of activating group efforts to achieve the desired goals. It
includes activities like getting subordinates to get the job done, maintaining morale
motivating subordinates etc. for achieving the goals of the organization.
Controlling:
It is the process of setting standards for performance, checking to see how actual
performance compares with these set standards, and taking corrective actions as needed.
The operative, also called, service functions are those which are relevant to specific
department. These functions vary from department to department depending on the nature
of the department Viewed from this standpoint, the operative functions of HRM relate to
ensuring right people for right jobs at right times. These functions include procurement,
development, compensation, and maintenance functions of HRM.
Procurement:
It involves procuring the right kind of people in appropriate number to be placed in the
organization. It consists of activities such as manpower planning, recruitment, selection
placement and induction or orientation of new employees.
Development:
This function involves activities meant to improve the knowledge, skills aptitudes and
values of employees so as to enable them to perform their jobs in a better manner in
future. These functions may comprise training to employees, executive training to
develop managers, organization development to strike a better fit between organizational
climate/culture and employees.
Compensation:
Maintenance:
It is concerned with protecting and promoting employees while at work. For this purpose
virus benefits such as housing, medical, educational, transport facilities, etc. are provided
to the employees. Several social security measures such as provident fund, pension,
gratuity, group insurance, etc. are also arranged.
It is important to note that the managerial and operative functions of HRM are performed
in conjunction with each other in an organization, be large or small organizations. Having
discussed the scope and functions of HRM, now it seems pertinent to delineate the HRM
scenario in India.
Business today doesnt have national boundaries it reaches around the world. The rise
of multinational corporations places new requirements on human resource managers. The
HR department needs to ensure that the appropriate mix of employees in terms of
knowledge, skills and cultural adaptability is available to handle global assignments. In
order to meet this goal, the organizations must train individuals to meet the challenges of
globalization. The employees must have working knowledge of the language and culture
(in terms of values, morals, customs and laws) of the host country.
Human Resource Management (HRM) must also develop mechanisms that will help
multicultural individuals work together. As background, language, custom or age
differences become more prevalent, there are indications that employee conflict will
increase. HRM would be required to train management to be more flexible in its
practices. Because tomorrows workers will come in different colors, `nationalities and so
on, managers will be required to change their ways. This will necessitate managers being
trained to recognize differences in workers and to appreciate and even celebrate these
differences.
2. Work-force Diversity
In the past HRM was considerably simpler because our work force was strikingly
homogeneous. Todays work force comprises of people of different gender, age, social
class sexual orientation, values, personality characteristics, ethnicity, religion, education,
language, physical appearance, marital status, lifestyle, beliefs, ideologies and
background characteristics such as geographic origin, tenure with the organization, and
economic status and the list could go on. Diversity is critically linked to the
organizations strategic direction. Where diversity flourishes, the potential benefits from
better creativity and decision making and greater innovation can be accrued to help
increase organizations competitiveness. One means of achieving that is through the
organizations benefits package. This includes HRM offerings that fall under the heading
of the family friendly organization. A family friendly organization is one that has flexible
work schedules and provides such employee benefits such as child care. In addition to the
diversity brought by gender and nationality, HRM must be aware of the age differences
that exist in todays work force. HRM must train people of different age groups to
effectively manage and to deal with each other and to respect the diversity of views that
each offers. In situations like these a participative approach seems to work better.
Recruiting and developing skilled labor is important for any company concerned about
competitiveness, productivity, quality and managing a diverse work force effectively.
Skill deficiencies translate into significant losses for the organization in terms of poor-
quality work and lower productivity, increase in employee accidents and customer
complaints. Since a growing number of jobs will require more education and higher
levels of language than current ones, HRM practitioners and specialists will have to
communicate this to educators and community leaders etc. Strategic human resource
planning will have to carefully weigh the skill deficiencies and shortages. HRM
department will have to devise suitable training and short term programs to bridge the
skill gaps & deficiencies.
4. Corporate downsizing.
Unfortunately, such initiatives are not something that can be easily implemented, nor
dictated down through the many levels in an organization. Rather, they are like an
organization wide development process and the process must be accepted and supported
by top management and driven by collaborative efforts, throughout each segment in the
organization. HRM plays an important role in the implementation of continuous
improvement programs. Whenever an organization embarks on any improvement effort,
it is introducing change into the organization. At this point organization development
initiatives dominate. Specifically, HRM must prepare individuals for the change. This
requires clear and extensive communications of why the change will occur, what is to be
expected and what effect it will have on employees.
Re-engineering occurs when more than 70% of the work processes in an organization are
evaluated and altered. It requires organizational members to rethink what work should be
done, how it is to be done and how to best implement these decisions. Re-engineering
changes how organizations do their business and directly affects the employees. Re-
engineering may leave certain employees frustrated and angry and unsure of what to
expect. Accordingly HRM must have mechanisms in place for employees to get
appropriate direction of what to do and what to expect as well as assistance in dealing
with the conflict that may permeate the organization. For re-engineering to generate its
benefits HRM needs to offer skill training to its employees. Whether its a new process, a
7. Contingent workforce
A very substantial part of the modern day workforce is the contingent workers.
Contingent workers are individuals who are typically hired for shorter periods of time.
They perform specific tasks that often require special job skills and are employed when
an organization is experiencing significant deviations in its workflow. When an
organization makes its strategic decision to employ a sizable portion of its workforce
from the contingency ranks, several HRM issues come to the forefront. These include
being able to have these virtual employees available when needed, providing scheduling
options that meet their needs and making decisions about whether or not benefits will be
offered to the contingent work force.
8. Mass Customization
There is a lot going on already within HR concerning mass customization, the optimal
combination of mass production with customization. Weve seen companies basing
employment arrangements on learning styles and personalities, allowing employees to
choose between lower base pay and higher bonuses vs. higher base pay and lower
bonuses, and changing from career ladders with a straight shot to the top to career lattices
where a sideways move is considered a good career move. Here, HR has done a great job
of applying HR principles to its own traditional functional processes.
HR will need to take the tools of marketing around customization for consumers and
clients and applying them to the task of talent segmentation. The key is to optimize. At
one extreme, a personal employment deal for every individual would be chaotic. At the
other extreme, defining fairness as same for everyone risks missing important benefits
of customization, and in fact may be unproductive and unfair.
Thus, HR should develop principles for understanding the optimal level of customization
in the employment relationship. Moreover, because customization will often mean that
different groups of employees receive different employment arrangements based on their
needs or the way they contribute, HR must develop principles that equip leaders to
explain these differences to employees. Our work suggests that while many HR managers
understand the need for customization and differentiation in principle, they resist it
because they simply dont feel well-equipped to explain them. It is far easier to say, We
do the same thing for everyone, so its out of my hands. The concept of fairness is
sometimes confused with treating everyone the same.
Work sites are getting more and more decentralized. Telecommuting capabilities that
exist today have made it possible for the employees to be located anywhere on the globe.
With this potential, the employers no longer have to consider locating a business near its
work force. Telecommuting also offers an opportunity for a business tin a high cost area
to have its work done in an area where lower wages prevail.
Decentralized work sites also offer opportunities that may meet the needs of the
diversified workforce. Those who have family responsibilities like child care, or those
who have disabilities may prefer to work in their homes rather than travel to the
organizations facility. For HRM, decentralized work sites present a challenge. Much of
that challenge revolves around training managers in how to establish and ensure
appropriate work quality and on-time completion. Work at home may also require HRM
to rethink its compensation policy. Will it pay by the hour, on a salary basis, or by the job
performed? Also, because employees in decentralized work sites are full time employees
of the organization as opposed to contingent workers, it will be organizations
responsibility to ensure health and safety of the decentralized work force.
11. Technology
With the current technological advancement and its projection in the future, it has
brought in new eyes in the face of HRM. A number of computerized systems have been
invented to help in the HRM of which they are seen as simplifier of HR functions in
companies. Large or multinational organizations using some of the human resources
information systems are reaping big. You do not have to stay in a particular location to do
your duties but you can do on a mobile basis. For instance the paper work files are being
replaced by HRMIS which may be tailor made or Off the Shelf. These systems help in
handling a lot of data on a chip other than having a room full of file shelves.
What HRM is concerned with here is the safety (confidentiality) of the data/information
of staff, and therefore it is at the forefront of having to train personnel in operating such
systems and developing the integrity of such personnel to handle the sensitivity of the
matter.
12. Health
With the emergence of the wellness clubs and fitness centers together with the need for
having healthy workforce, it has emerged that HRM has to move to another step like
having to subscribe for its employees to such clubs, paying health insurance services for
the staff. This is not only a productivity strategy but also a strategy used to attract and
retain valuable employees.
In the current situation as it is now especially with the outbreak of HIV/AIDS epidemic,
it has been seen to be of value to have infected and affected employees have special
attention so that they can have confidence of support from the employers. With its effect
leading to stigmatization, HRM has to think of counseling and guiding such employee so
that despite of the effect they (employee) remain productive. Cancer is another kind of
issue that has seen the current trend in HRM look closer to health and wellness of
employees. Cancers of all types are endemic to employees. Couple with other
communicable and none communicable diseases HRM has no option other than to advice
management to invest in health care packages that will revitalize the performance of the
affected and infected employees
Therefore for HRM to continue showing relevance it has shifted to providing health
services to staff through health insurance, sensitization, and free medical treatment bills.
This has seen high results in not only in performance but also in attraction and retention
of highly qualified personnel.
Over a long time now in HRM history it has been a big debate about family life work
balance. Employees have been on toes of the employers to see if there could be justice
done and on the other hand employers have been keen to minimize the effect of the same.
The fact is a happy family is equal to a happy workforce. With the current trend HRM
have to work it out that every employees family to some extent is a happy one.
Therefore investing in what may seem out hand for the organization is inevitable. It is
time HRM to convince management to organize family day out for the staff and their
families, sacrifice sometimes for days off to enable employees to attend to their family
issues.
The employment laws unlike from the past now allow family leaves and above all you
have parental leave (paternity and maternity). In this moment the member of the family is
not missed. Time off your duty is to enrich one with family chore which help identify the
employee with the organization. From break of family affairs of course an employee is
rejuvenated and recognizes that the employer values him so much to the extent that
he/she is allowed to visit, stay and enjoy family bond.
Still it is realized that the family bond is a cost to employer in terms of time but it is a
great motivator the employee. Which leads to high productivity. Therefore the HRM
has to stay tuned the dynamics of family needs of employees and go a step ahead to
provide development assistance like loans to meet family needs and social development.
14. Confidentiality
The current trends have been seen as new challenges in the terms of costs especially in
the short run but for organization to strive well in this competitive market to together
with the labor mobility it is imperative important to rethink the HRM in terms of the
current trends at all levels.
It goes without say that as longer as there is no clear defined human resource
management strategies in the given organization there is definitely a problem boiling in
the same organization or an explosion is bound to happen. With the current trend in
managing the most valued organization resource, organizations have to dig deeper to
maintain.
HR MANAGER:
ROLES:
Human Resource Manager plays a vital role in modern organization. He plays various
strategic roles at different levels in the organization. The role of HR Manager includes
roles of conscience of a counselor, a mediator, a company spokesman, a problem solver
and a change agent.
COMPONENTS
1. Organizational Culture
Organizational culture is the collection of values, working norms, company vision, habits
and beliefs that the business espouses. The HR management system plays a large part in
shaping the organizational culture. Setting policies, procedures and company standards
dictates to employees the behaviors that are acceptable in the workplace. For example, a
policy may state that time management is important to the business, which fosters
timeliness among employees, or HR may adapt a looser time management policy that
values employees' freedom to manage their own schedules. In essence, the organizational
culture affects the way people do their work and interact with one another and with
customers.
Almost all employees , even ones that are highly educated or skilled, require some
level of training because each organization runs things in a different way. Policies
and procedures need to be firmly communicated to employees as part of their on-
boarding process. The HR management system is also responsible for ongoing
employee development. This continuing education keep employees skill fresh so
they bring new and Innovative ideas to the workplace.
1) Increased involvement:
Surveying are the best possible way to get in to the heart of every employee and knowing
what problems they are actually facing and trying really hard to help them get rid of such
problems. For majority of employee it becomes very difficult to put forward their
problems before their boss. Survey helps anonymously saying things they wish to say and
what changes they want or what are they feeling with the workforce they are associated
with. It is easy and involves involvement from a number of employees.
Employee satisfaction surveys are a way employees can communicate with the managers
or upper class of people working with them in the same organization for the up liftment
of the organization. Survey helps in creating a line of communication between different
groups of people working in any company. As the surveys are done anonymously there is
no threat for any individual to put the things they are feeling or wanting to say without
being judged by those feedbacks. It is best for the means of communication.
3) An improvised approach:
Make the employees raise their voice over the issues they want to bring to the company
and those they have been holding back from a l ong time. The employee satisfaction
survey helps then individual employee to mark their presence for making any desirable
change they want to execute in the organization. The feedbacks being provided are taken
up seriously by the higher authorities so that they can provide a feasible solution that will
benefit both the employees as well as the organization.
4) Anonymous:
Majority of employees working in any organization doesnt want to state their true
emotions about what are they feeling towards their job to be shared as they have a fear of
being criticized. This is a common fear occurring in almost every employees mind. This
anonymously giving opinion through survey helps them to speak their heart out without
any fear. They will give the survey with utmost honesty and wont bring any topic other
than what concerns about themselves. This becomes valuable as the survey helps in
focusing of some points which cause trouble either to that particular employee or the
company indirectly.
5) Flexibility:
The surveys are so designed that they will serve more flexibility to the end user or the
employee in their specific work place. If a survey is being made that highlights the
employee satisfaction which will help the management of the company to know what
makes the employee working under them delighted or sad about anything that concerns
their work place. With a strong opinion one can help the company to plan and manage the
relevant changes in their work plan and bring out the best from every employee.
6) Creative:
When the employee working in any organization is asked for any help regarding anything
or if their opinions are asked through any survey, it is a boon for the organization as
every individual is different. Everyone will have their own thought about the problem and
their very own conclusions as well this will eventually help in the formulation of a better,
new and improvised plan which will ultimately reflect the growth of the company.
7) Better understanding:
While conducting any employee survey in the organizations, various message passing to
the employees or other people associated with the organization whose opinions and
thoughts are important for the growth of the company are always valued by any
company. This helps in the proper management and deliverance of individual employees
growth and also helps the employees an ease in taking their true opinions through survey
that are executed in the organization. Employees will come to know what help and how
that can help the employees to increase their growth exponentially.
8) Delicate:
If any employee working for the organization is feeling unhappy, lost focus or being used
by the other employees or any higher authority, she/he might be finding it difficult to say
what their concerns are face to face. This delicacy should not affect the growth of the
organization. This is one important aspect of conducting surveys.
9) Helpful:
Survey employee satisfaction helps both the company and the employee to seek and
devote energy and time in doing they are prescribed to do. The survey is fruitful for the
company in various possible ways and for the employees as well. They can maintain and
manage the regularity of the organization and the different employee will serve their
purpose of devotion with honesty and putting forward their opinions.
10) Creative:
Every individual or every employee will serve for the best of the growth of the
organization and this creative approach helps them to grow more and better in many
ways. This creativity helps the employee to understand every problem and think out of
the box to provide the solution for it. This creativity helps them the organization for a
better up liftment and ultimately helps the employee to understand the company more and
the people working there.
Often in various employee satisfactions survey questions being asked are not what the
organization should aim at asking. There are often times when the number of question
was more than 10 which loses an employees lack of interest and eventually she/he just
tick without even reading the question and hence the employee satisfaction survey
purpose behind taking such surveys goes in vain.
The employee satisfaction takes place in majority of the organization only once in an year
which means that the employee can only say about their problem once every year and
whose solution is also not fixed. Often it is seen the employee who has asked for a
change has left the organization. The amount of time any survey took place and the time
needed to process that task is way too much.
3) Unsatisfied employees:
The major drawback is that the surveys dont actually measure how satisfied the people
are at workforce they are working. While being happy and satisfied are apparently almost
related entities, they are different and have their importance in every aspect. Apparently,
job satisfaction is the most important thing considered at any job. While considering all
the advantages and disadvantages, what every employee thinks about the job is more
important which is majority of the times ignored.
4) Time consuming:
The survey takes place in various work forces, it takes a hell lot amount of time in
displaying its result. If any survey is being made in the month of February then its result
might come in the end of October or December which should not be the case . The time
the results get out, not everyone remembers the questions that were being asked in the
survey and hence its purpose becomes unsuccessful.
5) No fruitful result:
The survey aims at providing solution to the employee by considering their problems and
asking for their opinion to help them change those but what actually happens is
something totally different. The company is too rigid to make any changes and they will
eventually do what they aim at doing. The companies just create an imaginary vision but
actually just manage the tasks what they actually want to perform.
6) Negativity:
The survey doesnt pinpoint the actual problem so that can help for fixing it both rather
they misuse this concept. But they just spread the negativity by not focusing on the actual
problem. The company neglects the opportunity they had for the upliftment of the
company and spread them to the best of every employees work but it all just goes in
vain. Some team member becomes happy if they got the desired output they were asking
for, while some are given no attention. Every focus turns to be more on lowering down
the total score of the team.
The survey responses make it very biased and there are companies where they
intentionally ask the employees to mention their name while taking the survey and this
way they can easily approve the voices of the ones who are the companys favorite and
hence ignoring the suggestions of the rest of the employees. The response rate with which
the results are being announced is tremendously low and often helps no one. The growth
of the employee hinders.
8) No ownership:
The survey takes place for the whole employees and not for any individual but problem
arises when there is involvement of various other people working under the solution of
the problem behind the asked questions in any survey. Nobody takes the ownership but
rather is busy in doing something or the other to grab the attention of the company and in
return provide the outcomes that are best for their personal benefit.
9) Survey failure:
The more the number of questions will be, the more will be the chances of its failure. The
important point to consider is to find a balance between the surveys and avoiding any
chaos that can happen. The survey tends to avoid planning for the results and eventually
the last survey overlaps the new and no conclusion drives to be seen. The engagement of
the employee is a good way of seeing a stand-alone solution for a problem but after the
survey gets implemented no solution actually happens
The job satisfaction surveys are very much useless and often no result tends to be
happening after taking tons of survey every year and they are just meant for personal
benefit of the company and fooling around the employee working under them. It is easy
to sigh off the survey and not giving the appropriate answers to the questions. No
workplace feels or says the things an employee is actually feeling or wanted to say.
Everybody wants something or the other to be done but rarely anything happens.
When an organization is growing quickly, it is critical to find out how employees feel
about their jobs, the organization, and their fit and future within it.
While some industries have a naturally high turnover, growing turnover is a problem for
any organization. If your absolute level of turnover exceeds the industry average, you
have a problem that an employee satisfaction survey is the first step to solving.
3. Excessive rumors.
A strong rumor mill is symptomatic of other problems in the organization. These can
include communications, trust, and fear. Only a survey can uncover the extent to which
any of these issues exists
Change can be difficult for many people. If not handled properly, productivity and profits
can decline.
You must know what needs to be "fixed" and how much "fixing" it needs to maximize
return on invested money and people resources.
employee to express his point of view. For example, ask how satisfied he is with internal
opportunities for growth or promotion, coaching and development programs,
management and supervisor attitudes, company benefits, employee rewards and
recognition programs.
3. Get Details
It is common for employees to select a rating for each survey question. However, instead
of just getting a rating, you should also get the details. The details let you know why an
employee selects a specific rating. To get the details, it is necessary to ask open-ended
questions that allow the employee to provide comments and feedback. If you want honest
feedback on the survey, consider giving employees the option to remain anonymous. If
the employee has to reveal his identity, he may not be honest about his true feelings, due
to fear of ramifications.
4. Survey Methods
The two methods you can use to survey employees are interview or questionnaire. With
an interview survey, you sit down with the employee to get verbal feedback. With the
questionnaire, the employee completes the survey and submits it to you via paper or
electronic format. Though the questionnaire survey is time consuming for management,
the answers tend to be more honest. To increase employee honesty during interview
surveys, consider outsourcing a non-biased third-party company to conduct the interview
1. Passionate
Good employees who stay at a company are passionate about their work and their
company. Finding passion in an interview can be tricky. Hopefully, all your interviewees
seem passionate about the job (and if they dont then that is an immediate red flag), but
your job is to separate fake passion from real passion. More importantly, to find the
people who can use their passion for their work.
2. Communication Skills
Companies are built by great employees who can work well together. That is built by
strong communication. That is just internally, your companys external success in sales,
marketing, PR, and any kind of collaboration is also dependent on your
employees ability to communicate well. This isnt just expressing ideas coherently, it
also requires the ability to listen to others and respond effectively.
3. Goal Oriented
To grow your small business youve got to have goals. To reach your goals, you
need goal-oriented people, employees who dont get bogged down in the muck of office
politics or taking credit but are committed to getting the job done and achieving the goal.
A good communicator who is also a go getter is great, but not if they get lost in the
details and cant stay organized. When a small business is trying to grow employees often
need to deliver on many fronts and the bosses cant be micromanaging. 5. Adaptable
6. Creative
Companies always need creative team members to help find new solutions. One of the
benefits of new hires is new ideas, but to make sure you get new ideas you need creative
thinkers.
By now everyone knows that employee surveys are a fantastic way to gauge and improve
employee satisfaction. But performing a survey isnt enough. You must properly
understand and analyze the surveys correctly.
To get started, youll first want to go back to the beginning when you were first creating
the survey. Try to remember why you started this process. What were the goals of the
survey? What was the scope of this project in general? Its important to keep these things
in mind as you begin to analyze the data collected. Otherwise, you may find yourself
reading something into the data that isnt actually there. You dont want to try to answer
questions that werent actually asked. If you realize you missed asking a crucial question,
make note of it. It can be included in the next survey, but it cant be addressed with the
current results.
4. Analyze
Now that you have valuable clean data, its time to start your analysis. First, evaluate the
data and look for trends. These can show specific areas of concern and indicate where
improvement may be needed. More detailed analysis can be done to evaluate the data,
like cross-tabulation, filtering, and graphical analysis. If this isnt the first survey, you
can use previous surveys as benchmarks to compare the results. If this is the first survey,
keep all data and subsequent analysis to be used in the future.
Hopefully your survey results in a treasure of data, and once it is interpreted and sorted
into usable information it can be used to improve the workplace, employee
communication, and overall employee satisfaction. After all, the point of these surveys is
to understand what action needs to take place to improve employee satisfaction.
