4.2 HRM Operations

At a general level, it is important to analyze training needs


against the backdrop of organizational objectives and
strategies. Unless you do this, you may waste time and
money on training programs that do not advance the cause
of the company People may be trained in skills they already
possess the training budget may be squandered on rest and
recuperation sessions, where employees are entertained but
learn little in the way required job skills or job knowledge,
or the budget may be spent on glittering hardware that
meets the training director’s needs but not the
organization’s.
It is also essential to analyze the organization’s external
environment an internal climate. Trends in the strategic
priorities of a business, judicial decisions, civil rights laws,
union activity, productivity, accidents, turnover,
absenteeism, and on the job employee behavior will
provide relevant information at this level.
However, assessing the needs for training does not end
here. It is important to analyze needs regularly and at all
three levels in order to evaluate the results of training and
to assess what training is needed in the future.

At the organizational level, senior managers


who set the organization’s goals should analyze
needs.

At the operations level, the managers who


specify how the organization’s goals are going to
be achieved should analyze needs.
At the individual level, the managers and workers who do
the work to achieve those goals should analyze needs,
keeping in mind that performance is a function both of
ability and motivation.
4.2.1 Human Resource Planning

Human resource planning is all about measuring the


organization need to identify the numbers of employees and
skills required to do those jobs. Further, an understanding
of available competencies is necessary to allow the
organization to plan for the changes to new jobs required
by corporate goals.
At sitara, major changes according to economic and social
environments are required purchasing new and additional
office equipment to enhance efficiency e.g., computer
hardware or software, coping with the recall of a defective
product and dealing with the need for a new design e.g.
new automatic rotary machine.
This suggests several specific, interrelated activities that
together constitute an human resource planning system.
They include:

A talent inventory to assess current human


resources and to analyze how they are currently
being used.

A human resource forecast to predict future


HR requirements.

Action plans to enlarge the pool of people


qualified to fill the projected vacancies through
such actions as recruitment, selection, training,
placement, transfer, promotion, development and
compensation.

Control and evaluation to provide feedback on


the overall effectiveness of the human resource
planning system by monitoring of HR objective.

5. Structure of the HRM Department:
 

5.1 Number of Employees working in HRM Department

Now I’ll discuss the personnel management of Sitara


Textile Industries Limited under various steps of Human
Resources Management Sitara Textile also knows this fact
and has personnel department right at the entrance of main
gate of mill. Personnel Department of Sitara Textile can be
critically analyzed on the basis of various steps of human
resources management process.
First I would like to describe the ware bouts of department.
Department is situated in an old building which was
constructed at the time of establishment of Sitara Textile
and department was named as labor department. Recently
three or four years ago name of department was changed to
personnel department. There are only 5 personnel who
actually handle the department’s affairs and about 1500
employees are working. There is great work that is to be
done by 5 persons and they feel burden on themselves.
6. Functions of the HRM Department:
 

6.1 Major Functions

Every organization whether it is a multinational


conglomerates a small business, a religious institution or a
government agency depends on people. Appropriate
candidates for each job from chairman of the board to night
shift janitor must be located either inside or outside the
organization and they must be convinced by pay benefits
and working conditions to take and keep the job. They must
also be trained and motivated. Handling these functions is
part of human resources management’s job.
they feel burden on themselves.. There are six steps.
1. Human resources planning
2. Staffing
3. Training & Development
4. Compensation
Management
5. Employee Evaluation
6. Employee Movement and
Replacement
6.2 Supports to Other Departments

Through job rotation policies and by extensive interaction


with managers in all other functional areas. Unless these
executives are perceived as equals by their corporate peers,
their ability to make significant contributions to the firm
will be diminished.
Require the senior HR executive to report directly to the
CEO. At present this occurs in about 70 percent of
companies nationwide. Consider whether any corporate
resource is more important than its people. Ensure that the
top HR officer is a key player in the development and
implementation of business plans—providing early
warning regarding their acceptance and serving as the
CEO’s window on the organization and as a sounding
board.
Representatives from HR and line managers from the
business unit generate key business strategies for the
coming year. To do so, they identify major external and
internal factors that may have an impact on the future of the
business, together with future customer requirements. The
result? A business unit annual plan that outlines

Major driving forces in the business unit.


Major business initiatives in the business
unit.

Primary directions.
Major priorities for key executives of the
business unit.
Managers who have used the strategic blueprint process
emphasize that its single greatest benefit is this: if forces
HR managers to concentrate solely an critical, value adding
activities. Such an approach is sorely needed, as a recent
American Management survey of 1500 HR managers
found. When asked how well HR strategy is linked to
business results, 6 out of 10 respondents said it was either
not effective or just somewhat effective. Only 3 percent
characterized the linkage as “world class.”
 
 
7. Critical Analyses:
 
7.1 Requirement Analysis

Job analysis also provides the basis for developing job


specifications. Job specifications are a statement of the
human qualifications required to perform the job. Among
the qualifications which are often included in job
specifications are the following.
Educational standards which may spell out, for example,
degrees attained, such as a B.S. in engineering.
Experience requirements, such as two years of general
clerical experience for the position. This job requires
directing the work of from two to ten clerical employee,
and therefore would normally require some prior
experience in actually performing clerical duties.
Skills requirements, such as typing 80 words per minute, or
being able to take dictation by an executive etc.
Requirement analysis has performed thoroughly at Sitara
Textile for the purpose of job analysis by HR department.
7.2 Data Gathering

There are four basic technique generally used for gathering


about different jobs.

Interviews in some cases, job analysts may


interview the employee who is performing the
job, the supervisor, or both. This technique may
be time consuming, and the danger exists that
employees may exaggerate the importance of
their jobs. At Sitara Textile interviews are
conducted for certain types of investigations in
cases of breakage of rules and regulations.
Interviews are also conducted for search of a new
candidate but these interviews are just mere
formality rather than having professional
approach.

Observation A second approach to


information gathering in job analysis is having
the analyst actually observe the individuals
performing a job and record observations while
doing so. In some instances this method is very
useful, but under certain conditions it becomes
more difficult if not impossible. At Sitara Textile
this technique is implemented in some cases,
observations have done for performance
judgment and competency of work force.

Questionnaires Probably the least costly


method of collecting job analysis data is by using
questionnaires. Well designed questionnaires
have been claimed to be “the most efficient way
to collect a wide array of job data and
information in a short time. However, there is the
danger that a responder will not complete the
questionnaires, complete it inaccurately, or take
an excessively long time to return it Sitara Textile
usually does not use this sort of technique to
collect the data.
Diaries or Logs A fourth approach is to
utilize diaries or logs in which employees record
their daily activities and tasks. In addition, those
activities performed at infrequent intervals must
also be noted. Because of the difficulties
connected with this procedure, portable tape
recorders may be utilized to assist in maintaining
a record of such activities.
HRM department has not any systematic
procedure for using the diaries or logs for the
purpose of data gathering.
 

7.3 System Design

When choosing a system, always remember that the


selection is not expected to last forever. That thought
should provide a glimmer of hope and some optimism, too.
The selection is important and should be taken with great
care. At the same time, you should acknowledge that if
something better comes along or if circumstances change,
you might have made different choice.

Develop detailed project plan


Develop user groups
Purchase hardware
Develop independent focused computer
applications.

Implement independent applications as ready


Modify in house forms
Modify/customize initial systems
Establish procedure
Convert data Train HRIS staff
During my internship at Sitara Textile, I found that HR
department uses to develop various user groups for
example there is separate software running for the work
force of processing department and similarly for stitching
department. Oracle software’s are in use for the employee’s
pay roll system and pay breakup, all the programming has
been done by IT department. In pay roll system there is a
employee form where the data has recorded and pay break
up system is also the part of these pay roll forms. There
exists auto generation system at Sitara Textile, employees
attendance is being checked through hand scanning
recently changed from old procedure of card scanning.
7.4 Implementation

Following are the points which theoretically I read during


course of my study
Implement HR core
Train other HR users
Make system available to HR functional
specialists

Refine HR core
Establish mainframe micro link
Conduct field analysis
Develop procedures for distributed
processing

Prepare technical documentation


Develop/work on other modules
Test system and user acceptance
Implement additional modules
Maintain/enhance
 
 
 
8.Short-falls/Weaknesses of the HRM Department:
8.1 Planning

At Sitara Textile I think very small importance is given to


personnel as far as planning is concerned. Upper level
management like CEO and Director give low attention to
this department. Personal Department does not search for
and does not know whether there is need of new employee
at same job or not. They only know who is going out and
there is a vacancy at the place of out going employee. I
have examples for such employees who are doing work of
two or three men. There should be better planning for that
in order to achieve organizational goal. If the goal is to
minimize the expenses it is not proper way to control and is
not legally and ethical acceptable.
8.2 Recruitment

At Sitara Textile recruitment is done internally as well


externally. Recruiting is to attract qualified people to apply
for positions with an organization. Sitara Textile do not
advertise their job in newspaper but let the people be
informed by existing employees.
Most of new employees are hired on reference basis. There
are various authorities to hire the people for various
positions. If position of job is that employee would be paid
Rs.4,000/- monthly, personnel manager has authority to
hire this employee. The finance manager hires employees
having salaries below Rs.7, 000/- monthly. And job of
value higher than Rs. 7,000/- per month is up to CEO or
Director.
8.3 Training & Development

At Sitara Textile every new employee trains himself at his


own because training is not done or given properly by the
organization. Employee’s new colleagues teach him
manners of his job. Sitara Textile does appoint trainee
employees who are trained by the existing employees and
these trainees are sometime hired for actual jobs. These
hired trainees are beneficial for Sitara Textile because they
are already trained and understand their jobs. If there is
new employee hired who was not trainee at Sitara Textile
suffers because of that Sitara Textile do not have proper
training program.
8.4 Compensation Plans

As Sitara Textile is an industry of conservative type


therefore compensation and reward system is not very
much impressive. Compensation level of Sitara Textile is
low that is way qualified and talented people hesitating to
join Sitara Textile. There are low basic pays offered. One
good thing is that including allowances, pays become
double of the basic. But gross pay remains at the low level
as compared to the other industries. All the textile
industries in Faisalabad have low level of compensation
except few, so as Sitara Textile. Various allowances are
given to employees like medical allowances, attendance
allowances and etc. Attendance allowances are only for
those employees who are taking less than Rs. 5,000/- gross.
As compensation level is low therefore employees are not
very much motivated. Motivation level and morale of
employees are low which affects the periodicity of the
organization. It is fact that Sitara Textile is well reputed
organization and covering productivity requirement but if
morale and motivation levels are brought high the
productivity could increase. Anyhow Pakistani work force
are scared and compelled to take whatever any body gives
because of unemployment. Some think is better than
nothing.
8.5 Evaluation

Sitara Textile performance of the employees is evaluated


on the basis of what has been expected from them. The
upper level management evaluates performance. Upper
level management sees how an employee is performing on
his assigned position. It is done through observing and
comparing the productivity of the organization with the
expected productivity. The results of evaluation are used in
movement of employee inside the organization or outside
the organization.
8.6 Movement and Replacement

At Sitara Textile movement is of three types one is


promotion 2nd is voluntary severance and last is termination. In case of good performance
promotion or increment is given to the employee and is case of mistake or misbehave only one way
that is termination. Sitara Textile do not care employee turnover or things like that, they just replace
that employee. In this way movement of employees takes place at Sitara Textile.

This is all about the short-falls and weaknesses of HRM


department of Sitara Textile. Despite the fact that
department and personnel management is not very good
Sitara Textile has great productivity capacity. Emergence
of all other industries in Sitara group of industries is
example of excellent of Sitara Textile.
9. Conclusions:
 

All the sub departments of processing


department like bleaching, dyeing, printing and
finishing are working under laboratory
instructions so laboratory is playing role of
executive in quality control.

All the schedules of bleaching, dyeing


printing and finishing are prepared by the
laboratory instead of related management or HR
department.

There is lack of human resource planning,


lack of recruiting activities lack of job analysis,
compensation and reward system is not very
much attractive and employees are not well
motivated in Sitara Textile.

One good thing of this department is that the


department let the employees follow the rules and
regulations set by the organization strictly.
Attendance is strictly checked and leaves as well.
So there are good and bad both present in the
human resource department of Sitara Textile.

HRM department is not established and not


considered to be very much important. Low
attention is paid to this department by upper level
management.

There is lack of human resources planning,


lack of recruiting activities and lack of job
analysis.

Compensation and reward system is not very


much attractive and employees are not well
motivated in Sitara Textile.
10. Recommendations for improvement:
Organizations big or small profit or unprofitable have
problems and there are always chances of improvements.
This is also the condition for Sitara Textile. As problems
and difficulties have been identified, now here are some
suggestions that may help the organization to improve. This
is also the condition for Sitara Textile. As problems and
difficulties have been identified, now here are some
suggestions that may help the organization to improve.

In processing department there is a need of


skilled workers. There are certain departments of
processing in which employees have been
working since long but their efficiency is not
improved and unsatisfactory results come out
sometimes. The skilled labor will not only
improve the efficiency but also will improve
effectiveness. There should be chances given to
skilled workers to enter the organization.

There should be female artists and designers


in design department as females have naturally
more esthetical qualities than males. They will
really improve the quality of designs and will
introduce more innovative design.

Expanding product lines that will give more


variety to people of country could extend local
marketing and ultimately sales would be
increased. There should be more staff in local
marketing department to enhance the sales figure
and to capture wide area of local market.

There is need of better working condition in


personnel department. Employees of this
department are working in very poor condition,
chair are broken, air conditioning facilities are
not properly in some department like HRM
department. That is why morale of employees
working in department is low and they are not
motivated for doing jobs. This area should
carefully be examined and solved.
There is need to increase the staff in this
department only three or four persons are
working with all the affairs regarding let the
employees abide by the rules and regulations,
recruiting, selecting and other activities. This area
should carefully be handled to attract skilled
employees and ultimately to enhance efficiency
and effectiveness.

Job analysis should be done to know what are


the jobs needed in the organization. I know some
persons who are doing the job of two or three
persons.

Compensation and reward system should be


brought at higher level in order to let the
employees be motivated and happy.

There should be more fringe benefits for the


employees taking into consideration there
devotion skill and experience. This higher level
would make the employees more efficient and
effective.

There should be little compensation for


trainees as well as they can fulfill their day to day
traveling and food expenses. By doing this
trainees will show more interest, more devotion,
more potentials and will work with full mental
and physical efforts.
The first aid and other medical facilities
should be provided to the employees with in the
mill area. There is continuous working in the mill
and every time there are chances of any accident
or unpleasant incident. So in order to handle this
type of situation the first aid dispensary should be
there in the mill area.
