HUMAN RESOURSE DEPARTMENT

HUNAM RESOURCE PLANING

It is the process of forecasting demand & supply and making comparison. Or creating balance between demand & supply. In the Engro foods they forecast it by two ways; 1. Business orientation 2. Expert opinion

The forecasting is done on the above two basis. In the expert opinion the selection is done on the basis of the opinion of the experts. Basically the bench of experts selects that how many employees are required to them in the particular department. And they also decide that what quality and what quantity of employees they are going to hire in the particular department. And the other thing Engro foods adopts is the business orientation, the management of the organization planed about the hiring of employees on the basis of the new work started in the organization. For example as the Engro foods has started its 2nd production unit at Sahiwal so thats why they are adopting the business orientation technique.

Recruitment and Selection

Recruitment and selection are the processes through which an organization takes in new members. Recruitment involves attracting a pool of qualified applicants for the positions available. Selection requires choosing from this pool the candidate whose qualifications most closely match the job requirements.

12

In companies like Engro that function in a global environment we have to distinguish different types of employees. Traditionally, they are classified as one of the three types:

Parent country national The employees nationality is the same as the organizations. For example, an American citizen working for an American company in Pakistan.

Host country national The employees nationality is the same as the location of the subsidiary. For example, a Macedonian citizen working for a Slovenian company in Macedonia.

Third country national The employees nationality is neither that of the organization nor that of the location of the subsidiary. For example, an Albanian citizen working for a Slovenian company in Macedonia. Recruitment Policy of EFL There are five recruitment channels of EFL. 1. Internal movement 2. Online-portal 3. News paper ad 4. Write ins & walk ins 5. Customize hunting Internal movement HR departments become involved when internal job openings are publicized to employees through job positioning programs, which informs employees about opening and required qualifications and invite qualify employees to apply. The notices usually are posted on

13

company bulletin boards or are placed in the company newspaper. Qualification and other facts typically are drawn from the job analysis information. The purpose of job posting is to encourage employees to seek promotion and transfers the help the HR department fill internal opening and meet employees personal objectives. Not all jobs openings are posted .Besides entry level positions, senior management and top stuff positions may be filled by merit or with external recruiting. Job posting is most common for lower level clerical, technical and supervisory positions. Online-portal Now today no body thinks anything without internet. So EFL give advertise on internet. EFL most of the times use the online-portal for the recruitment of the employees.

News Paper Ads EFL also place their ads in news papers for the recruitment of the employees. Walk-ins and Write-ins Walk-ins are some seekers who arrived at the HR department of EFL in search of a job; Write-ins are those who send a written enquire .both groups normally are ask to complete and application blank to determine their interest and abilities. Usable application is kept in an active file until a suitable opening occurs or until an application is too old to be considered valid, usually six months. Customize Hunting EFL prefer foreign qualifier and students of LUMS. Selection Procedure in EFL The selection procedure in EFL consists of 7 steps; 1. Test (aptitude) 14

2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Interview (3 to 7) Medical evaluation Reference & background check Offer Placement The selection in the EFL is done on the basis of above 7 steps. First of all an aptitude test is conducted and the successful candidates are called for the interview and most of the times 3 to 7 interviews are conducted. The successful candidates in the interview are called for the medical evaluation, that they do not have any serious medical problem. After it any reference of the employee is checked, and the background of the employee is checked, they he or she doesnt have any criminal background or have any problem in the background.

TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT The overall aim of the development function is to provide that adequately trained personnel in a company are capable to fulfill their goals, as well as to contribute to better performance and growth with their work (Armstrong, 1996). The development of employees can be treated as a special field of human resource management that includes planned individual learning, education, organization development, career development and training.

EFL Orientation/Induction EFL make a plan for the orientation and induction of its new employees, most of the times a 15 to 30 days plan is created for the new employees. The new employee has to work with the managers of the different departments in the organization. And the work of the different departments is told to the employee. After the completion of the plan the feedback is taken from all the managers and also from the employee. If the feedback is satisfactory then the person is assigned its seat and he or she start doing his/her work. On the other hand if the feedback is not satisfactory then the entire plan is repeated. At the organization, human resource development professionals are responsible for: 1. Training and development of employees located in subsidiaries around the world, 2. Specialized training to prepare expatriates for assignments abroad, and 3. Development of a special group of globally minded managers. Creation and transfer of international human resource development programs may be carried out in two ways: 1. Centralized 2. Decentralized With a centralized approach, training originates at the headquarters and corporate trainers travel to subsidiaries, often adapting to local situations. This fits the ethnocentric model. A geocentric approach is also centralized, but the training develops through input from both 17

headquarters and subsidiaries staff. Trainers could be sent from various positions in either the headquarters or subsidiaries to any other location in the company. In a decentralized approach, training is on a local basis, following a polycentric model. When training is decentralized, the cultural backgrounds of the trainers and trainees are usually similar. Local people develop training materials and techniques for use in their own area. EFL most of the time use the decentralized approach in its organization. To maximize training effectiveness, it is important to consider how trainees learn most effectively. Cultural factors have a strong impact on training practices in different parts of the world. For example, in North America, where power distance is small, the relationship between the trainer and trainees tends toward equality. The trainer and trainees use first names, and the trainees feel free to challenge or question what the trainer says. In Malaysia, where power distance is large, a trainer receives greater respect. Students use his surname and title, and he is an expert that students rarely challenge. As global competition increases, it is increasingly important for successful companies to have a group of managers with a global perspective. Companies must identify managers with global potential and provide them with various training and development opportunities. For example, having one or more international assignment(s), working on cross-national teams and projects, and learning other languages and cultures contribute to making a manager more globally minded. In addition, an organization should include not only parent country nationals, but also host country nationals and third country nationals in this group.

Engro Foods Training Policy

There are three main policies for the training of the employees; 1. In house 2. External

18

3. Training need assessment EFL most of the times use the external training for its current employees. The current employees of the company are sent to the different seminars and organizations for the training purposes. Types of Training in EFL There are two main types of training in EFL: Technical Training It is given to the persons who work in the labor force or doing any type of technical work. Due to change in the technology or any type of change in machinery, technical training is required to those persons. Soft Skill Training It is given to those persons who are working in the office. It is also called the development of the persons. It is given to the middle level managers in the organization. Training To get the outbreak team building experience, we send our employees abroad. Engro foods bear many expenses for the training of the employees.

PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT In companies, the performance evaluation is most frequently carried out for administration or development intentions (Cleveland and others, 1989). For administration purposes, performance evaluation is called for when the decisions on work conditions of employees, promotions, rewards and/or layoffs are in question. Development intention of performance evaluation is oriented to the improvement of the work performance of employees, as well as to the enhancement of their abilities on the ground of the adequate training program and advising employees regarding behavior in the work environment.

PADP in EFL In Engro Foods Ltd the performance evaluation is done on the basis of performance appraisal development process. In EFL it has two parts; 1. In the first part at the start of the year the employee himself define the objectives for the whole year and then lock these objectives to his or her supervisor and then start doing work on that. 2. In the second part at the end of the year the employee firstly define the objectives for the next year and secondly performance evaluation is done by him self before it present in front of the supervisor. That person evaluate that whither he has achieved his goal or not and then held a detail meeting with the supervisor. They made a discussion on that objective and try to meet each other points if the person is not satisfied or the supervisor is not satisfied then that person goes to the top level management.

21

In EFL, performance appraisals are usually done yearly and use a standarized evaluation form. Sometimes, the organization also requires supervisions to discuss the results of the appraisals with each employee. Performance evaluation is challenging for any organization. At the international level, the complexity is greater because the organization must evaluate employees from different areas working in different subsidiaries. The need for consistency across subsidiaries for performance comparisons conflicts with the need to consider the cultural background of employees to make the evaluation meaningful. Consequently, the delivery of a balanced performance review, including both strengths and weaknesses, requires tact and delicacy. As with other functions, the approach to performance evaluation depends on the organizations overall human resource management strategy. A company with an ethnocentric approach is likely to use the same performance evaluation process used at the headquarters for its subsidiaries. Some companies translate evaluation forms into local languages, whereas others use the original language everywhere. A company with a polycentric approach develops local procedures within each country. Finally, a company with a geocentric approach uses the same performance evaluation system worldwide, but it has universal applicability. Developing a global system is the most challenging.

REWARDS AND REMUNERATION Remuneration of employees has a key role in acquiring new employees and is important for employees as well as for the employers. Pay is the basic resource of living of the employees, while benefits cover better health care, the possibility of spending holidays in the companys holiday facilities at a favorable price and also other advantages. The decisions the employers make concerning remuneration are a factor that has an impact on the expenses of their company as well as on the ability of selling the products at a competitive price in the market (Treven, 1998). The decisions about remuneration may also enhance the ability of the employer to compete for employees on the labor market. The rewards he warrants make the standing personnel either want to keep their jobs or quit. EFL Compensation Program The compensation in EFL has two parts; 1. Salary 2. Incentives Salary Salary in the EFL has the following components, 1. Basic pay 2. Home rent allowance (45% of the basic pay) 3. Utilities allowance (10% of the basic pay) 4. Conveyance allowance (10% of the basic pay) 5. Supplementary pay (23% of the basic pay) The supplementary pay is the special pay given by the EFL to its employees.

23

Incentives/ Allowances EFL gives incentives to the employees of the field. Mean the field based employees are given the incentives on the basis of there performance in the related sector. Greater is the performance greater will be the incentives. Then the second thing is the allowances which are given to the office based employees. Normally the allowances are fixed. From grade 11 to 19 it is Rs. 3000 and for 20 and up it is Rs. 8000.

Benefits
The benefits which are given to the employees by EFL are as follows; 1. 2. 3. basis. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. concerns. The first is comparability. A good compensation system assigns salaries to employees that are internally comparable and competitive within the marketplace. For example, the salary of a senior manager is usually higher than that of a supervisor, and each position should Compensation cars Field car + bike OPD cover (medical) Hospitalization cover (50% by employee + 50% by the company) Life insurance (50% premium by employee + 50% premium by the Death benefits (12 basic salaries) House rent advance (4 gross salaries) Out breaks Provident fund (10% of the gross basic pay) Gratuity fund (10% of the gross basic pay) VPP (variable pay plan) (10% of the gross basic pay) it is paid on the yearly

company)

In developing an international system of compensation and benefits, EFL has two primary

24

receive an amount within the local market range. The EFL must also consider the salaries of people who may transfer from other locations. The second major concern is cost. Organizations strive to minimize all expenses, and payroll is one of the largest. Remuneration and benefits in EFL are closely tied to local labor market conditions, even when an organization takes an ethnocentric or geocentric approach. The availability of qualified local people to fill positions, prevailing wage rates, the use of expatriates, and local laws interact to influence the level of remuneration and benefits. For example, if there are few applicants available for positions, the remuneration for those positions generally increases. To reduce expenses, the human resources manager might then consider bringing in an expatriate.

Employee Benefit after Retirement As this Organization is private limited so they do not provide as much retirement benefits as the Govt. organizations do. 1. Final settlement 2. Provident Fund (10%) 3. Gratuity 4. Pension

Span of Control Engro has a wider span of control. As it believes in diversity of opinions. Engro believes that wider span of control can increase communication among employees that helps in improving its production.

25

Planning Engro do planning on short term and long term basis simultaneously. Engro is mostly having long term plans and for achieving these long term plans it gains support of short term plans.

Motivation Plan For the motivation of our employees we gave those provident funds, yearly bonus, and medical facilities.

Communication in the Organization They provide wireless system in every plant for fast communication. They also do video conferences at higher level. And they have Two-way communication system in their organization.

Six Sigma at ENGRO Engro is among the first Pakistani companies implementing six sigma across all areas and utilizing it as a management system to execute our strategic objectives. Six sigma was launched in February 2006. Among the focus areas, employee development is the most critical and six sigma will be leveraged to help bring out the best in our people. Employees will drive improvements in other areas: speed, innovation, perfection and becoming world class. Six sigmas robust problem-solving methodology and statistical toolkit allows the company to benchmark processes against global standards in a language that is comparable across any industry or function. It helps ensure that we sustain our promise of delivering high quality products and services to our customers on time, every time. Communication is critical and Engro conducted six sigma launch events country wide as well as two

26

internal conferences and electronic and print updates throughout the year management and non management employees were trained extensively during 2006 on six sigma principles, with further plans for learning in 2007.

360 Feedbacks Motivation, work ownership and fair evaluation are some of the defining attributes of staff management practices at Engro. Our commitment to continuous improvement in the performance management systems for employees at all levels was reflected in adoption of the 360 Degree Feedback System. This system ensures better employees accountability, at the same time providing the employees with chances to make use of their competencies. The 360 Degree mechanism became fully operational for senior management in 2006.

INDUSTRIAL RELATION

27

The labor relations function identifies and defines the roles of management and workers in the workplace. The concept of labor relations varies greatly in different parts of the world. In the United States, for example, labor relations are often a formal relationship, sometimes antagonistic, between labor and management defined by a union contract. In Japan, the relationship between management and unions is cooperative, and management often appoints union leaders (Hodgetts, Luthans, 1994). In many countries, the government regulates labor relations practices. Consequently, in this function EFL has more than other human resources management functions, an organization may have to be polycentric. However, even though labor relations are local level issues, it is good corporate strategy to coordinate a labor relations policy across subsidiaries. But, there is no union exit in EFL. EFL hire labor through consultancy agencies like UNIVERSAL and SS (solution security). UNIVERSAL provide labor like plant technician, packing technician and other labor. And security guards through SS. These consultancy agencies are responsible for their compaction reward and other benefits. EFL only pays lump sum amount to these agencies.
