CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION TO TOPIC
Labor welfare is an important facet of industrial relation. After employees have
been hired, trained, and remunerated, they need to be retained and maintained to serve the
organization better. Welfare facilities are designed to take care of the well-being of the
employees; they do not generally result in monetary benefits to the employees. Nor are these
facilities provided by employer alone. Government and non-government agencies and trade
unions too, contribute towards employee welfare.
The need and important of labor welfare is being increasingly appreciated throughout the
civilized world. The worker both in industry and agriculture cannot cope up with the pace of
modern life with minimum sustainable amenities. He needs an added stimulus to keep body and
soul together. Employers have realized the importance of their role in providing these extra
amenities.
Each employer depending upon on his priorities gives varying degrees of importance to
labor welfare. It is because the government is not sure that all employers are progressive minded
and will provide basic welfare measures that it introduces statutory legislation from time to time
bring about some measures of uniformity in the basic amenities available to Industrial workers.
Employee welfare is having a wider scope and may have indifferent countries
depending upon the socio-economic conditions, political outlook and social philosophy.
5. Co-responsibility
The fifth principle of labour welfare recognizes that the responsibility for labour welfare lies
on both employers and workers and not on employers alone (Mouthy, 1958). Labour welfare
measures are likely to be of little success unless mutuality of interest and responsibilities are
accepted and understood by both the parties, in particular the quality of responsibility at the
attitudinal and organizational level.
Totality of welfare The final principle of labour welfare is that the concept of labour welfare
must permeate throughout the hierarchy of an organization, and accepted by all levels of
functionaries in the enterprise.
SCOPE OF LABOUR WELFARE WORK
It is somewhat difficult to accurately lay down the scope of labour welfare work, especially
because of the fact that labour class is composed of dynamic individuals with complex needs. In
a world of changing values, where ideologies are rapidly undergoing transformation, rigid
statements about the field of labour welfare need to be revised. Labour welfare work is
increasing with the growing knowledge and experience of techniques. An able welfare officer
would, therefore, include in his welfare programmed the activities that would be conducive to the
well-being of the worker and his family. The test of the welfare activity is that it removes,
directly or indirectly, any hindrance, physical or mental of the worker and restores to him the
peace and joy of living the welfare work embraces the worker and his family The following list,
which is by no means exhaustive, gives the items under which welfare work should be conducted
inside and outside the work place:
2) Voluntary:
Under voluntary welfare, all those activities are including which are undertaken by the
employees for their workers at their own. These activities are not statutory but the employees
undertake these activities because they increase the efficiency of the workers and maintain the
industrial peace.
3) Mutual:
Mutual welfare activities are those activities which are initiated by the workers for their
betterment .Welfare activities undertaken by the trade unions are included under this head.
Labour welfare activities may be further classified under two heads:
1) Intra Mural Activities :
Intra mural activities are those amenities and services which have been provided
by the employers inside the factories e.g. sanitary conditions ,medical facilities ,shelter
,canteens etc. These activities are the part of working conditions.
The company is striving to employee welfare and it provides the following to its employees.
Two pairs of uniform, one pair of safety shoes and safety caps are providing to all the
employees.
Dinner for the employees with their facilities and a cultural programmed on every 31st
December.
Dinner for the employees with their families and a cultural programmed on every 1 st
January.
Celebrates Independence Day and republic day.
Provides family planning camp within the plant premises, every year.
Provided AIDS awareness classes to the employees by the District Medical &
Health Department.
Provided the Art of Living classes to the employees within the plant premises.
Provided the SSY classes to the employees within the plant premises
…. All the statutory obligations of the employees like P.F., L.I.C.etc. Within the work
schedule.
Provides different loans to the employees to meet their financial requirements.
The company maintained temples of Sri Venkateswara Swami, Anjaneya Swami and
Vinayak Temples located at Township.
THESE LAWS ARE:
The factories Act 1948: the mines Act 1952: the plantation employee Act 1951: the central
employees (regulation & abolition) Act 1970: these Act provides for facilities such as canteen
crèches shelters rest rooms , lunch rooms , washing facilities etc.
They also regulate the age of employment, hours of work and more provisions for the
appointment of employees welfare officers sickness, Maternity and medical benefits are provided
under the employee state Insurance Act 1948 and also the government has chalked out
comprehensive Programmers for housing facilities, social security schemes provident funds and
such other facilities & seize able has been allotted in each five years for employee welfare
activities.
The oxford dictionary refers employee welfare as “efforts to man life worth living for
women”. The committee on employee welfare (1969) has defined employee welfare as “such
services facilities and amenities as adequate canteen rest recreation facilities and sanitary and
medical facilities arrangements for travel to and from work for the accommodation of workers
employed at a distance from their homes and such other services amenities and facilities
including social security measures as contribute to improve the conditions under which workers
are employee.
According to the employee investigation committee (1946) employee welfare means
anything done for intellectual, physical more and economic betterment of the workers, whether
by employee by government or by other agencies over and above what is laid down by low or
normally expected on the part of its contracted benefit for which workers may have bargaining
Mainly, the provisions welfare measures such as good housing, canteen, medical etc.
makes them realize that they have also some stake in the undertaking in which are engaged and
so they think thrice before taking any reckless actions which might prejudice the interest of the
undertaking.
Welfare measures such as cheap food in canteen, free medical and education facilities
etc. indirectly the real income of the workers. If workers go on strike they will be deprived of all
these facilities. Hence, they try to avoid industrial dispute as far as possible and do not go on
strike on flimsy grounds.
Welfare activities will reduce lab our turnover and absenteeism and create permanent
settled lab our force by making service attraction to the lab our. Welfare activities will go on
long way to better the mental and moral health of the workers by reducing the incidence of
industrialization
.
Lab our welfare measures develop congenial environment, and builds a good atmosphere
between the lab our and the management.
Lab our welfare creates positive work culture, builds team work to meet the challenges of the
organization and increase efficiency for the workers whereby the productivity will increase.
Skilled workers are the assets of an organization. Lab our welfare helps to retain the skilled
workers and builds loyalty and sense of belongingness among them.
Employees attitudes and appreciation towards the organization, will progress the unit.
Good relation can be achieved through labour welfare. This will strengthen the organization
manifold.
Labour welfare is one of the way in which the labour problems are solved. Labour
welfare act as a main spring for the success of an organization.
Above all labour welfare helps the organization from heavy tax-burden, and to meet
legal requirements.
Employee welfare is justified for several reasons. It is desirable to recollect the services of
a typical worker in this context.
His/her employee helps dig and haul coal from the depths of the earth to fetch and refine oil , to
build dams and reservoirs, to lay pipes, canals, railway lines and roads. His/her employee
creates and transmits power, and through various phases of manufacturing, patterns raw material
into finished products of necessity as well as luxury.
Welfare may help minimize social evils, such as alcoholism, gambling, prostitution,
drug addiction and the like.
A worker is likely to fall a victim to any of these if he /she is dissatisfied or frustrated. Welfare
facilities tend to make the worker happy, cheerful and confident looking
Management is the art of getting the work done by the people; therefore it is necessary to
seek the co-operation of the employee for an in order to increase the production and to
higher profits.
The co-operation of employees is possible only when they are satisfied with employees
and the workers on the job.
Good welfare and welfare facilities measures enables the employees and his family to a
good welfare facilities like housing medical and children education, recreation etc., helps
to improve the conditions of the employees.
Employee’s welfare measures leads to high morals and high productivity and help to
raise the standards of the industry in the county.
I have selected this topic because it very challengeable topic to go through various
employees felling on depth about difficulties of employees and various activities in the
Welfare department
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
According to my objectives the entire study is based on understanding the various labour
welfare facilities that are provided to the employees working at the manufacturing unit.
I have also taken a step to study the various problems faced by the employees due to lack
of facilities available for them at the workplace ,which often leads in spoiling their
relationship with at higher authorities as well at even between themselves there by
disrupting the quality of work life of the employees.
Paint made its earliest appearance about 30,000 years ago. Cave dwellers used crude
paints to leave behind the graphic representations of their lives that even today decorate
the walls of their ancient rock dwellings. It becomes the 10th largest decorative paint

technology
Aims to become the 5th largest decorative paint company in the world
The utility of paints has evolved from a decorative use to a surface protection use. Also, know as
surface coatings, paints can be classified on the basis of end use, solvent system and solid
content.
END USE CLASSIFICATION:
Under this heading, paints can be classified as decorative / architectural paints and
industrial paints.
As the names suggest, decorative paints are mainly used for household and construction
purposes while industrial paints are used as coating for industrial productions.
Main types of decorative paints are enamels,
Acrylic emulsions, distempers and exteriors and post message primary types of industrial
paints are marine paints, anti corrosive metal coatings.
The Indian paint market consists of both organized and unorganized sectors, where the former is
majorly observed. The industry consists of two segments, namely
Decorative segment – caters to the housing sector ,and
Industrial segment - consists of powder coatings, floor coatings and other protective
coatings catering to the automobile, marine and other industries.
In the domestic market, Decorative segment accounts for 60% of the total demand for
paints whereas the industrial segment accounts for the remaining 40%.
Decorative paints can further be classified into premium, medium and distemper
segments. Premium decorative paints are acrylic emulsions used mostly in the metros.
The medium range consists of enamels, popular in smaller cities and towns. Distempers
are economy products demanded in the suburban and rural market.
Nearly 20 per cent of all decorative paints sold in India are distempers and it is here that
the unorganized sector has dominance.
Globally, the demand for paints is almost equally distributed, where both the segments
account for close to 50% of demand. Following is its diagrammatic representation:
The raw materials used in manufacturing paints, roughly, constitute approximately 56%
of the total expenditure in paint companies. Titanium dioxide is one of the major raw
materials and price fluctuations in its cost have direct and substantial impact on the cost
of production.
Crude oil derivatives are the other major raw materials and have similar impact.
Apart from these a large number of other raw materials are used for adding or providing
specific properties to the wide product range offered by the industry players. The working
of the paint industry can be better understood as under:
INDUSTRY PARTICIPANTS
The market share of the organized sector is continuously improving as consumer
preference is shifting towards better products offered by the leading brands.
Established Foreign companies have entered the Indian market by acquiring existing
Indian companies.
Kansai Paints, Japan entered the Indian Market by acquiring Nerolac, Akzo Nobel, the
world’s largest Paint company, entered the Indian market by acquiring ICI Paints (now
Akzo Nobel India).
Off late, the competition in the paint industry has also heated more intensely with the
entry of foreign players like Jotun, Nippon & Sherwin Williams.
The following top 5 companies make up more than 80% sales of the organized
market:
Ss Paints is the market leader in the Indian Paint Industry and gets the major portion of its
revenue from the Decorative segment. Over the years, it has outperformed its peers in
every aspect by wide margins.
This is mainly due to its strong competitive advantage which lies in its strong Brand
Equity and an extensive Distribution Network.
PROMOTIONAL AND REGULATORY BODIES
CAPEXIL (Formerly Chemicals and Allied Products Exports Promotion Council) a non-
profit making organization, was set up in March 1958 by the Ministry of Commerce and
Industry, Government of India over the years has been playing an important role to
promote exports of paints from the country.
The Indian Paint Association is the apex body of the Indian paint industry, which
represents both the organized sector and the small scale sector in the paint industry. It is a
voluntary non-political and non-profit organization which promotes the interest of the
paint industry and the society.
The IPA is a unique forum, established in 1960, in which even the very small scale
manufacturers are members beside the major producers in India. The representative
character of the association is amply demonstrated by the fact that more than 80 per cent
of the total paint production in the country is accounted for by members of IPA.
Our vision is to grow rapidly with the help of newer technologies and tapping latent needs of the
consumers. It is our firm belief that if we can provide what consumers need, in a way they need,
there is hardly a reason why Ss brand will not soon become one of the most preferred and trusted
brands. For this we will keep re-assessing and build upon our strengths and improve upon our
weaknesses. As part of the Ss group, we, the Promoters & the employees should never
compromise on the promises of quality and innovation. And the goals are ours to reach.
MISSION
Continue to provide value added products in an ethical and competitive way to the community.
Businesses are to generate profits. The difference with us is how we define profit. We believe
that any exchange of goods and services should leave both- the giver and taker- satisfied and
pleased. This generates trust. This in turn is, key to the growth and even survival of a company.
On the other hand, adapting to changing times – whether it is new technology or consumer needs
makes a business profitable. This profitability allows continuity and growth of the business.
GOAL
"To satisfy our customers by giving all the paint and coating related solutions at their doorstep".

CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Since 1997, the government has pursued a number of inter-related policies aimed at
reforming the welfare system for people of working age getting more people into work and
reducing poverty. Joseph Rowntree Foundation research had identified many of the needs of
targeted groups and the Foundation has been involved in commenting on reform plans and
tracking progress
This Foundations written by Donald Hirsh with Jane Millar is a round-up of what JRF
(Joseph Rowntree Foundation) has had to say about Welfare reform and related issues since the
later 1990’s and provides and assessment of the progress made
Welfare programs have evolved over time and have been replaced as successive
governments have perceived different needs. The recrity the major reviews is somewhat
surprising given the long entity of the major programs. The old age and invalid pensions
originating in 1908 and the unemployment and sickness benefits payments in 1944.
The social Security Review was established in February 1986 by the them minister
for social security the Hon. Brian Howe, MP. The review was founded for two years and was
commissioned to develop as long-term perspective on priorities and where needed new directions
for income security focusing on three main areas:-
There are several reasons for trying to reduce welfare dependency rates and return more
people to economic self-reliance. There are two much stronger reasons for radical reform.
One is that income support is now costing taxpayers $80 billion per year. This expense is a
key factor keeping taxes high, even on workers with modest incomes with the result that work
incentives and rewards for effort get eroded indeed, we are chasing our tails for as we increase
taxation to meet the growing cost of income support payments, so it becomes less attractive to
work, and more people
seek welfare as an alternative.
The second reason is that long periods on welfare corrode people’s work skills, destroy
their habit of self-reliance and undermine their wellbeing. Children raised in welfare-dependent
families perform worse than they should in school, are more likely to end up in trouble with the
law, and have a higher probability of winding up of benefits themselves. In short having one in
six of our working-age adults depending on benefits as their main or sole source of income is
bad for those who have to support them and is bad for the simultaneously on three fronts
Arun Monappa, “Industrial relations”, Tata Mc .Graw Hill Publishing company Ltd.,
In India, the foundation of modern industry was laid between 1850 and 1970. This was
also the period of emergence of the Indian working class. During this period of the growth of
India capitalist enterprises, the working and living conditions of the lab our were very poor, and
their working hours were long. This was testified by the commission like Indian factory lab our
commission (1980) and the Royal commission of lab our (1931). In addition to the long working,
their wages were low and the general economic condition was poor in industry. In order to
regulate the working hours and other services condition of Indian textile laborers, the Indian
factories act was enacted in India
A.M.sharma “Aspects of lab our welfare and social security”, Himalayas publishing
house, Bombay
The necessity of lab our welfare is felt all the more in our country because of its
developing economy aimed at rapid economic and social development. Royal commission on lab
our stated the benefits which go under this nomenclature, are of great importance to the workers
and which he is unable to secure by himself. The scheme of labour welfare may be regarded as a
wise investment, which should and usually does bring a profitable return in the form of greater
efficiency
Twenty years later the planning commission also realized the importance of lab our
welfare, when it observed that. In order to get the best out of a worker in the matter of
production, working conditions require to be improved to a large extent. The workers should at
least have the means and facilities to keep himself in a state of health and efficiency. This is
primarily a question of adequate nutrition and suitable housing conditions. The working
conditions should be such as to safeguard his health and protect him against occupational hazard.
The work place should provide reasonable amenities for his essential needs. The worker should
also be equipped with necessary technical training and a certain level of general education.
The concept of lab our welfare is flexible and elastic and differs widely with times,
regions, industry, country, customs and degree of industrialization prevailing at particular
moments. Few of these definitions are as follows;
‘k.k.Ahua-industrial relations theory and practice’ kalyani publishers ladhiana
The oxford dictionary defines lab our welfare as “effort to make life worth living for
workmen”. Encyclopedia of social sciences defines welfare work as “voluntary efforts of the
employer to establish, within the existing industrial system working and sometimes living and
cultural condition of the employers beyond what is required by law, the customs of the country
and conditions of the market”. Lab our welfare is, therefore, one of the major aspects of national
programmes towards improving the lot of lab our and creating a life and work environment of
decent comfort for this class of society.
It is however, difficult to precisely define the scope of lab our welfare efforts. Different
writer have defined it in different ways. Some writers say that only voluntary efforts on the part
of employer to improve the conditions of employment in their factory. Some others say it
includes not only voluntary efforts but also the minimum standards of hygiene and safety laid
down in general legislation.
Article 41:
The state shall within the limits of its economic capacity and development, make effective
provision for securing the right to work, to educate and to publish assistance in work, to educate
and to publish assistance in case of unemployment, old age, sickness, disablement and other
cases of under-served wants.
Article 42:
The state shall make provision for securing just and human conditions of work and for
maternity relief.
Article 43:
The state shall endeavor to secure, by suitable legislation or economic organization or in
any other way, to all workers, agricultural, industrial or otherwise, work , a living wage,
condition of work ensuring a decent standard of life and full employment of leisure and social
and cultural opportunities and in particular, the state shall endeavor to promote cottage industries
on an individual or co-operative in rural areas.
K.K.Ahuja-“industrial Relations Theory &Practice” Kalyani Publishers Lodhiana
The state take steps by suitable legislation or in any other way to secure participation of
workers in the development of undertakings, establishments or other organization engaged in any
industry
ILO (international labour organization), classify all labour welfare services under two
categories, viz, intramural and extramural. Intramural services are those, which are provided
within factory. Extramural services are those, which are provided outside the factory.
Mallika.N (2008) the study found that welfare benefits not only raise the employees
moral but make it easier for employers to attract and hire competent personal. Welfare
helps to build a positive image of the organization and facilities dealing with the union.
The positive attitude among the workers will create job involvement and more faith
towards their organization. This will be achieved only by providing enough welfare
measures to the employees.
Bennet, S (2009) the study found that Industrial relations play a crucial role in
establishing and maintaining industrial democracy establishment of good industrial
relations depends on many factors maintence of good human relationship is central focus
of industrial relations. Good industrial relationships largely rely on employee welfare
measures. Here is an attempt to analyze the contributions of labour welfare measures
towards good industrial relations.
Jayaraman. S, and Chandran, C. (2010) discussed about the Quality of Work Life
from the perspectives of Nursing Professionals in health care industry and they selected
QWL dimensions such as health and well-being, job security, job satisfaction,
competence development, work life balance, control over work load, nursing leadership,
control over nursing practice, innovation and creativity, support and recognition. They
reported that the human resource practitioners and the health care organizations have to
understand the factors related to the QWL of the nurses and approach them with a
humanistic way.
Sarina Muhamad Noor, and Mohamad Adli Abdullah (2011) have identified in their
study the relationship of job satisfaction, job involvement and job security with quality of
work life of employees in one of the largest multinational firm in Northern part of
Malaysia, and they selected some proposed dimensions of the QWL aspects, such as job
satisfaction, job involvement, and job security. The study revealed that there is a
significant relationship among the selected variables. Finally the study concluded that the
management should appreciate the notion that employees with high commitment and
positive work attitude contributed to the firm‟s success. Evidently, the environment
should ensure that the firm provides support to workers‟ quality of work life
Rajendran, R (2012) in his study reveals that an effort to present the various factors
governing the labour welfare measure in chemical companies which is applies in the
general aspect of Indian contract. Particularly the employees have been got several
stringent in the safety a health affect through the enormous dust and chemicalised air
breathing in factory zones in their work spot.
Sandhya Nair, G.S. (2013) study undertaken to explore the relationship between the
quality of work life (QWL) and its effect on organisational citizenship behaviour (OCB),
in teachers from aided college and management institutes in Thrissur Dustrict, Asia
Pacific Journal of Research ISSN (Print) : 2320-5504 ISSN (Online) : 2347-4793
www.apjor.com Vol: I. Issue XLIII, September 2016 165 Kerala. Finally the result
indicates the wide gap between the social desirable class of behavior and the behavior of
teachers in an observable form with respect to their perceptions of QWL in aided
colleges.
Prajapathi, D.R (2014) in his study found that quality of work life refers to the level of
happiness on dissatisfaction with one‟s career. Those who enjoy their careers are said to
have a high quality of work life, while those who are unhappy or whose needs are
otherwise unfilled are said to have a low quality of work life. The term refers to the
favorableness or unfavorableness of a total job environment for people. Poor working
environment non-uniform distribution of work load, lack of involvement in decision
making and opportunity to learn new skill.
Report of National Commission on Employee (2002), Government of India, made
recommendations in the area of Employee welfare measures which includes social
security, extending the application of the Provident Fund, gratuity and unemployment
insurance etc. Shobha Mishra & Manju Bhagat, in their “Principles for Successful
Implementation of Employee Welfare Activities”, sated that Employee absenteeism in
Indian industries can be reduced to a great extent by providing good housing, health and
family care, canteen, educational and training facilities and provision of welfare
activities. The principle for successful implementation of Employee welfare activities is
nothing but an extension of democratic values in an industrialized society. P.L.Rao, in his
“Employee Legislation in the Making”, opines that professional bodies like National
Institute of Personnel Management should constitute a standing committee to monitor the
proceeding in the Parliament regarding the Employee welfare measures
Binoyjoseph,josephinjodey (2009), studies in the article points out that, the structure of
welfare states rests on a social security fabric. Government, employers, trade unions have
done a lot to promote the betterment of workers conditions.
David, A Decenzo (2001) and Stephen P. Robbinsin their book, “Personnel / Human
Resource Management explained the various benefits and services provided by the
companies to their employees. According to them, the legally required benefits and
services include social security premiums, unemployment compensation, workers
compensation and state disability programs. They felt that the cost of the voluntary
benefits offered appears to be increasing.
Michael (2001) in his book, “Human Resource Management and Human Relations” said
that the provision of intra-mural and extra-mural welfare facilities help in improving the
quality of work life of employee’s thereby good human relations will develop among
different cadres of employees.
Punekar, Deodhar and Sankaran (2004) in their book, “Employee Welfare, Trade
Unionism and Industrial Relations” stated that Employee welfare is anything done for the
comfort and improvement, intellectual and social-well being of the employees over and
above the wages paid which is not a necessity of the industry.
Aswathappa (2010) in his book, “Human Resource Management “discussed the various
types of benefits and services provided to employee’s in terms of payment for time not
worked, insurance benefits, compensation benefits, pension plans etc. He also discussed
the ways to administer the benefits and services in a better way.
Ghosh et al. (2007) have examined condition of work with reference to the importance
of welfare and social security measures experienced by persons engaged in display board
works. The study has observed that due to low income, workers involved in this
occupation have no capacity to purchase insurance policies. The employers are also
indifferent to their need for adequate social security coverage. The government and
employers should accord top priority to the provision of labour welfare and social
security coverage to the thousands of hoarding and billboard workers spread across the
country.
Michele, et al. (2007) has analyzed the welfare impact on employment protection by
using data from 17 OECD countries. The study has shown that some range of increasing
employment protection does indeed raise welfare. The optimal level of employment also
depends on labour market features such as bargaining power and existence of wage
rigidities like the minimum wages.
Olufemi (2006) has examined the relevance and effectiveness of achieving justice in the
work place in Nigeria through the use of code of conduct by MNCs. Voluntary codes
require special importance because of general weakness of domestic laws. The paper
suggested that flexible labour laws theory approach and the introduction of grievance
procedures as effective measures of linking self-regulation and law.
Marius (2006) has revealed in his study that social welfare depends on structure of union
objectives, elasticity of labour demand. The study has also observed that under
decentralized bargaining power, welfare can be maximized.
Michel (2005) has used British National Sample Survey Data to analyse the cooperative
unionism and employees’ welfare. The author has observed that union workplaces are
found to have more employees’ welfare provisions than non-union workplace.
Rawat (1988) attempted an investigatory and analytical study on the state policy on the
subject of formulation of legislation relating to labour welfare and implementation of
welfare measures and programmes in various industrial sector in industrial areas in the
country. He concluded that there is a need in the country to establish more welfare funds
for agriculture, unorganized labour, construction labour, handloom workers, etc., as has
been done in case of coal, mica, iron ore and limestone and dolomite mine workers. No
effort to improve the well- being of toiling workers can be successful so long as they lack
legal literacy and remained ignorant of their rights, duties and welfare measures are
imposed upon them from outside. Labour welfare is not a bounty gift, reward or
premium, indeed it is workers’ right.
Bhangoo (1995) examined industrial relations in Cotton Textile Industry. Attention has
been paid on exploring the nature and extent of industrial disputes, settlement machinery
working conditions and welfare facilities continue to be the most important factors
responsible for poor industrial relations.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Definition:
For the present study descriptive research is adopted. A descriptive research is one, which
portrays accurately the characteristics of a particular group, situation, or individual (with or
without specific initial hypothesis about the nature of their characteristics)
The method of random sampling has been adopted for the purpose of getting the required
sample frame and this has been done by selecting staff and workers of various department in a
random manner. So that the data collected will bring out the varied opinions with regard to
employee satisfaction at SS PAINT MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY AT SALEM
RESEARCH DESIGN
A research design is purely and simply the framework or plan for a study that guides the
collection and analysis of data. Generally a research design is a blue print of the research
that is to be followed in completing the study.
It is descriptive research type are those, which are concerned with describing the characteristics
of a particular individual or of a group, where we cannot control the variables.
RESEARCH APPROACH:
The survey approach was used to administer the questionnaire to the target respondents.
The respondents were contacted through personal interview method. The responses were filled
by the interviewer in some cases through face to face method while in some cases interviewee
they filled the survey form.
RESEARCH INSTRUMENT:
A structured questionnaire has been of closed ended questions & employee perception ratings.
Sometimes questionnaire was distributed to staff & employees and sometimes it was used as a
schedule and data was collected by us
METHOD OF DATA COLLECTION:
Primary Data:
Primary data has been collected by means of direct one to one task, interviews,
questionnaires and interaction with laborers and the Personnel Manager of the company.
Secondary Data
Secondary data has been collected from various books, reports, brochures, internet etc and
other texts available in college library
SAMPLING:
To minimize the cost, time and repetition, a representative sample is chosen for the study
Sampling is the process which helps to select an appropriate sample which minimizes error in
study. Sampling is carried out on a definite population and hence you must define population
with reference to your project. Also, you must specify sampling unit and sample size. Sampling
procedure should be defined. You must give a brief explanation for choosing a specific sample
population, unit, and sample size and sample selection technique used.
SAMPLING TECHINIQUE:
The methods used in drawing samples from a population usually in such a manner that the
sample will facilitate determination of some hypothesis concerning the population.
SELECTION OF SAMPLING METHOD:
The Sampling method decides the way in a manner sample is selected. There are two types of
sampling methods:-
I. Probability Sampling:
Sampling is the use of a subset of the population to represent the whole population.
Probability sampling, or random sampling, is a sampling technique in which the
probability of getting any particular sample may be calculated.
II. Non-probability sampling:
Non-probability sampling does not meet this criterion and should be used with caution. Non-
probability sampling techniques cannot be used to infer from the sample to the general
population. Any generalizations obtained from a non-probability sample must be filtered through
one's knowledge of the topic being studied. Performing non-probability sampling is considerably
less expensive than doing probability sampling, but the results are of limited value
Under this method factors other than random chance is used for selection of the sample
a. Convenience sampling
b. Quota sampling
c. Judgment sampling
d. Snowball sampling
POPULATION SIZE
The overall population size is 500.
SAMPLE SIZE:
The total sample size of 110 has been taken for this study. Both male and female
employees have been interviewed.
STATISTICAL TOOLS:
For this study I have used percentage analysis, correlation & weighted average method,
graphical representation of data using Bar charts.
PERCENT ANALYSIS:
In this project percentage method test is used. It can be calculated in the following way.
Percentage of respondents=No. of respondents /total no. of respondent * 100
In probability theory and statistics, correlation, also called correlation co-efficient, indicates the
strength and direction of a linear relationship between two variables. In general statistical as age
correlation (or) co-relation to the departure of two variables.
Formula
R=∑XY /√∑X2.Y2
Due to time constraints and busy schedules of the employees it was difficult to interact
with the company.
Some people were not interested to give answer of the question.
The response may be influenced by personnel bias.
Difficult to getting the data because of the confidentiality
