Products
The general form is pure polystyrene with few additives and is used when clarity
is required even though it is very brittle.
The high impact form is translucent or opaque because of rubber compounds
added to the reaction and incorporated into the resin to inhibit crack propagation and
hence reduce brittleness.
The expandable form is the same as the crystal form except that low molecular
mass hydrocarbons, usually pennant, are incorporated into the finished resin. These
additives vaporize during subsequent processing to produce foam.
VNPS EPS
VNPS PEARL is a General Purposes Expandable Polystyrene (EPS) having low
density range, good Water Proofing and good resistance to Alkali/Acid. The moisture
content level is very low.
Strategy
In domestic market, VNPS applies pricing strategy. As-> Because of the
advantage of monopolist in plastic product, VNPS can supply the goods with lower
price and shorter time delivery in comparison with exporter from other countries.
In global market, Vietnam now signs many free trade agreements and Generalized
System of Preferences with many countries in the worlds. And therefore, these things
help VNPS enhance their competitive in global market. Developed countries, for
example; Japan, German and countries from ASEAN can import VNPS without import
tax. As a result, VNPS can export to other countries in the world with the huge
advantages.

Social welfare
Social welfare and services quality will contribute to maintain the existence of
employee with company. In process of enhance incentive program, there are many
factors to create motivation. To create motivation effectively, director must harmonize
all of these factors to create efficiency and effectiveness incentive program.

insurance regimes of employee:

These regulations are to guarantee the minimum safety condition for employee
and their family in case of unlucky circumstance and risky toward to help employee
and their family feel caring when they contribute effort and health for company.
Based on fundamentals of these regimes, VNPS will adjust difference voluntary
social welfare to be suitable with actual situation to bring the safety and believe to
employee in VNPS, stimulate them to dedicate more for company without feeling
excruciated. This is appropriate strategy to create motivation for employee through
social welfare and service quality.

welfare.
- Health Insurance: Each year, VNPS organizes healthy examination for employee

Non-Financial tools
2.2.1. Working Environment
Take the right to employee to contribute idea at their work by writing letter to opinion
mailbox or talking directly to their supervisor. VNPS will conduct to solve seriously
idea of employee. As a result, mailbox brings many efficiency and effectiveness idea
for company.
-
Any question related to salary, employee have the right to take a question with human
resources employee and do not sign in salary table. Human resources employee will
review it to human resources director. Human resources director will be responsibility
to responsible for explaining for employee and solving problems. This brings
seriousness and public in salary system of employee in VNPS.
2.2.2.
Job Description
VNPS conducts to propose requirement, mission of job for employee through job
description and job specification well. However, VNPS now try to research to
emphasize on job specification and job description to let employee know and
understand the meaning of the job.
In 2013, VNPS require employee to do survey to judge the job. According to
outcome of survey, 90% employee understand their right and obligation and only 10%
show that they do not understand and they are not interested in that because they
believe in their vacancy, they do not need to know their right and obligation. They
should work as order of their supervisor which is enough.
Besides, the survey shows the feeling of employee toward the job with statistic as
follow the table:
2.3.1. Strengths
With the effort to enhance employee incentive program through the year, VNPS
gains some advantages and some changes.
About salary, hour salary encourages employee to work on time and sufficient day
in month. Salary paying for employee has the advantage with previous period when
employee receives responsible more with their job, work more effective. It also shows
the fair in paid salary by balancing between people in company and having comparison
with other company. With this employee will feel stable and take focus their
intelligence and their strength to work.
About bonus, this work creates large motivation for employee and help they them
not only work effectively but also believe in their work. With the bonus was regulated,
employee have conscious that if they work positively and effectively, the bonus will be
increased and help them to increase their income, guarantee for their family life.
About working environment, VNPS completes organization structure, improves
working condition for employee.
About job description, job description and job specification help employee
understand their job specifically faster and have more responsibility at work because
they understand the nature of work.
2.3.2. Weaknesses and causes
About salary, because VNPS pays salary to employee based on their level and
actual hour working without commitment to quality and effectiveness of work, leading
to phenomena that employee does not pay attention to outcome of work and waste of
time.
About evaluation criteria, an evaluation criterion has not finished yet, leading to
some omission related to effectiveness of work.
About social welfare, the level of social welfare is low and does not encourage
enthusiasm of employee. Social welfare is basic and does not meet the demand of
employee.
About non-finance tool, not-finance tool does not consider properly, formality is
not diverse and employees are responsible for building and improving working
environment are passive.. It is only based on contribution of employee.
Salary tool is one of the most effective tools of manager to create motivation. At
present, salary of VNPS is low and not guarantees to keep employee work for VNPS as
well as motivate them work harder.
Because of this, VNPS should implement some methods to enhance salary policy
for employee:
- Each year, VNPS needs to consider price fluctuation situation to adjust the salary
which is suitable with inflation.
- VNPS should have some policies to support new employee such as support
salary when trial working, support vehicle cost
3.2.
- Because employee has the demand to affirm and fulfill themselves at work. So,
VNPS must identify roles and position of employee shows them their level of their
contribution and how important it is important with VNPS. This helps employee affirm
their roles and have more motivation to work better.
3.3.
CONCLUSION
In modern economic, to help enterprise achieve success, invest in human
resources is one of the best solution to construct fundamentals to gain intrinsic to deal
with challenge. Because of that, along with training specialist skill and knowledge,
employee incentive program need to be paid attention to enhance the effective of
employee and raise profit for company. Exploitation and stimulation for employee will
only effective when their motivation is always pushed by some methods related to
physical and mental of owner of enterprise.
In chapter I, internship report introduces about VNPS Ltd. Chapter 2 researches,
analysis, presents actual incentive program of VNPS and points out strength and
weakness in employee incentive program. Chapter 3 concludes some solutions and
proposals for VNPS to enhance employee incentive program.
Because of limited time and research scope, internship report cannot avoid some
mistake, so I hope to receive some contribution from lecturer to complete internship
report.
Thank you!
PERSONAL REFLEXTION
During my internship at VNPS, I had two main job natures in sales department
aiming at improving its efficiency. On the one hand, I was responsible for looking into
the import/export procedure from different perspectives and devise standard operating
procedures. Since our company is a foreign company in Vietnam, we have to follow the
regulation and employee Vietnamese to handle import/export procedures. However,
there are several mistakes being made out of cultural difference and communication
discord. Therefore, devising the standard operating procedure can be a fundamental of
improving the process and benefit to managing the organization effectively and
efficiently. On the other hand, I work as a team member to maintain customer
relationship by visiting customers accompanying with managers. Maintaining good
customer relationship or exploring any potential business is very important for our
business, especially when we just started to expand our market share from this year. In
order to achieve my goal of making some contribution for the company, I dedicated
myself in observing each detail for every process regarding sales operation.
Devising Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) As for the import and export
procedure, I collected information by following my colleagues to do every step in
person, and ask any questions if necessary. Thanks to their coordination, I collected
abundant information to draw out the current procedure and devise the standard
operating procedure. From the experience of establishing the procedure, I observed the
following points which are worthy of further discussing:
supervisor, provided me some background information and the reasons why we visited
customers accordingly beforehand, so that I could understand the situation well. The
first company we visited was a manufacture producing helmet, and they had tested our
products few years ago and they decided not to use our product since the experimental
result did not meet their requirement. However, with the continuous improvement of
our technology, we were confident to provide them the products they need. After
discussing the details of manufacturing processes with their managers and factory
chief, they took us to visit their factory to see how they produce helmets and how they
do experiments for those products. They introduced the experimental methods and
showed us the result if qualifying the regular standard and what goal they were
pursuing. After that, my bosses judged what the key points of improving the products
are based on their yearly experience in this industry, they invited our customer to bring
us there and visit their production line. We inquired several questions in details
regarding the processes, such as temperature and parameters. After exchanging each
other's opinions, both side understood each other better and finally came to the
consensus of cooperating to develop better-quality products starting with providing
them two main products based on their need. We thought this was a great progress
although it was only oral deal rather than paper contract. I felt my luckiness to witness
a successful business deal. Later on, we went to visit our customers around the area.
The reason of visiting was to maintain customer relationship and to understand how
their business went on. This type of visit was far more casual than making a business
deal. Everyone just sat down and chat casually. From those talks, I categorized the
following main points:
