RECOMMENDATIONS
In HRD, the Human Resource Manager should have some technical knowledge in the field of engineering so that they can easily understand the problems of engineers. The company should arrange travelling facilities itself so that the chances of fraud can be minimized and the employees should not take extra advantage of these facilities. For effective perception, employees should be rewarded if they offer useful ideas for reducing costs increasing safety improving product. Shezan needs to improve its distribution strategy. Shezan is targeting youngsters as a potential and big market for its twist juice so if company supply directly to the schools, colleges and universities it removes intermediaries and due to high profit ratio caf owners will promote Twist compared to other juices. Suggestion boxes should be placed at convenient locations throughout the workplace. If the suggestion is accepted then employee should be given cash reward based on some percentage of first years saving resulting from the suggestion.
CONCLUSION
According to our group mates after visiting the company and taking information from the market we have concluded that: They are going good but have to improve internal environment They have to improve their distributor sector. Page 23 of 24
They have to make new strategy for the competitors like Nestle. They have large capital , so they have to spend more money in the advertising field In the this competitive environment, where Shezan International Limited is facing tough competition with national and multinational companies, HRD has been successful in retaining its employees by off offering a clearly defined reward and incentive system.
