INDUSTRY PROFILE
Introduction:
The reforms process turned active only in late 1996 with the adoption of the
"common minimum nation action plan for power" at the Chief Minister's
conference. This action plan, which laid the foundation for reforms, is the state
electricity boards [SEB's] have the following salient features.
Formulation of national energy policy.
Setting up of the central and state electricity regulatorycommissions.
Rationalization of retail tariffs.
Private sector participation in private distribution.
Streaming the role of central agencies concerned with project approvals.
Autonomy and improvement in the management and physical parameters of
SEB's.

interested in taking part in VTPS stage -IV.
It took another 18 months before the reforms process got in to implementation
mode with the promulgation of the electricity regulatory commissions ordinance by
the president of India on April 25, 1998. This ordinance primarily gave legal shape
to the two cardinal features of the common minimum action plan establishment of
regulatory commission and rationalization of retail tariff. This provision invited
considerable flak from the prefer power lobby and was unceremoniously shelved
when the ordinance was passed in t, an I act of parliament on July 2, 1998, reducing
SERCs to toothless tigers as far as rationalization of retail tariff was concerned.
However, the clause requiring the State Government to compensate the person
affected by the grant of subsidy in the manner state commission may direct was
retained, there by giving some vestige of authority to the regulators.
Andhra Pradesh Power Generation Corporation Limited is one of the pivotal
organizations of Andhra Pradesh, engaged in the business of Power generation.
Apart from operation & Maintenance of the power plants it has undertaken the
execution of the ongoing & new power projects scheduled under capacity addition
programme and is taking up renovation & modernization works of the old power
stations.
When APSEB came into existence in 1959, APSEB started functioning with
the objectives of maintaining the power sector efficiently and economically
simultaneously ensuring demand meets the supply.
During the last decade inadequate capacity addition and low system frequency
operation of less than 48.5 Hz for more than half a decade considerably reduced the
power supply reliability.
The consumer have grown up from two and half lakhs to over one crore, the energy
handled per annum from 686 MV to over 40,000 MV. The annual revenue has
increased from mere Rs 65 crores to Rs 48000 crores. In the after reforms process is
taken up in a big way and RTPP could complete 2X250MU KTPS V- stage .

COAL LINKAGE:
The main Coal Linkage to RTPP is M/s SCCL and is transported through rail.
Occasionally RTPP gets the coal requirements from M/s MCL, Orissa and this is
transported through 'Rail-Sea-Rail' Method.
The Rayalaseema region is in the Southern part of the state and most of the
generation facilities are in the Northern part of the state, except for two major Hydel
stations in the Central part of the state. The Rayalaseema region thus used to get
power through long EHT line and frequently it is used to face the low voltage
problem particularly during the summer when the Hydel stations generations goes
down. The region is a drought prone area and has to depend on Industrial growth for
its economic development power bring basic need, RTPP has ensured the proper and
quality supply the objective also improved the base load Thermal generating
capacity of the AP Grid.

ENVIRONMENTAL DEVELOPMENT IN RTPP:
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
INTRODUCTION:
23
It is common knowledge that without a continuous development of employee
competencies to organization can survive, today let alone grow or compete to be
defective every manufacturing organization needs competent people in all areas
whether they be cost
EDWARD FLIPPO
Organizations exist in the society. They are a part of the society and thy derive
strength from it. In order to be effective it is necessary that the organization are the
major cultural characteristics of the society in which they exist. In order to
understand cultural context of Indian organization it may be useful to pay attention
to some important cultural characteristics in India. We consider both the positive and
negative aspects where change is required.
In the Indian culture there ha always been concern for other although this
concern has not acquired the same character as concern for community. However
one important characteristic of Indian culture ha been its high extension motivation
which is reflected in several traditions in their country.
The aspects of loyalty of organization are strong factor especially among the
older generation with the organization. So they refuse to accept certain realities of
the organization especially weakness. Their emotional attachment to the
organization prevents an objective view of the existing state affairs.
In the Indian culture when a person takes a particular role he finds it difficult
to accept him in a new role. In many organizations fatalism which by implication
25
means of trusts one can do something about certain things and their controls of
somewhere outside leads to cynical tendency.
Indian culture by nature is individualistic even though there has been tendency
to show concern for the world and other. When the basic concern of the individual is
for self, the tendency to trust others is low. This is often repeated in organizations
where collaboration may be low because the tendency to trust other is low.
APPRAISAL PROCESS:
26
It serves as a basis for improving the quality & quantity of performance of the
executives in their present work.
It helps to identify the strengths & weaknesses and to introduce methods to
make the best use of the strength to overcome weakness.
Enables to locate the problems which may stand on the way of performance so that
corrective action can be taken to improve the performance.
Enables the concerned executive to know, where he stands and to know his worth.
Provides the basis for the superior to direct his subordinates to accomplish the
performance, while it enables the subordinates to understand their superior's
expectations.
■ Appraisal provides basis for promotion
■ It provides basis for fixing compensation and incentives
■ Provides basis for setting realistic standards
Definition:-
"Performance appraisal is a formal structured system of measuring and
evaluating an employer's job behaviors and outcomes to discover how and why the
employee is presently performing on the job and how the employee can perform
more effectively in the future so that the employee, organization and society all
benefit
27
Multiple purpose of performance appraisal:
28
■ To assess the training an development needs of employees
■ To let the employees know where they stand in so far as their performance is
considered and to assist them with constructive criticism and guidance for the
purpose of development
■ To improve communication. Performance appraisal provides a format for
dialogue between the superior and subordinate and improvers understanding
of personal goals and concerns. This can have the effect of increasing trust
between the rate and the rate
■ Finally, performance appraisal can be used to determine whether hr
programmes such as selection, training and transfers have been-effective or
not.
Uses of performance appraisal:
29
design. Appraisal help diagnose these errors.
■ Equal employment opportunities: accurate performance appraisals that
actually measure job performance ensure that internal placement decisions are
not discriminatory
■ External challenges: sometimes performance is influenced by factors outside
the work environment, such as family, financial, health, or other personal
matters, if uncovered through appraisals the HR department may be able to
provide assistance
■ Feedback to human resources: good or bad performance through out the
organization indicates how well the resources function is performing
Rating biases:-
The problem with subjective measure (is that rating which is not verifiable by
others.) has the opportunity for bias. The rater biases include
> Hallo effect
> The error of central tendency
> The leniency and strictness biases
> Performance prejudice
> The regency effect
> Perceptual set
> Performance dimension behavior
> Spillover effect and
30
> Status effect.
Halo effect:
It is the tendency of the tares to defend excessively on the rating of one trait or
behavioral consideration in rating all the traits or behavioral considerations. One
way of minimizing the hallo effect is appraising all the employees by one trait before
going to rate on the basso another trait.
Some raters follow play safe policy in rating-by-rating all the employees around the
middle point of the rating scale and they policy because of answerability to
management or lack of knowledge about the person or job he is rating or least
interest in his job.
The leniency bios crops when some raters have a tendency to be a liberal in their
rating by assigning higher rates consistently. Such rating doesn't serve any purpose.
Equally damaging one is assigning consistently low rates
Personal prejudice:
If the rater dislikes nay employee or any group, he may rate them a lower end,
which may distort the rating purpose and affect the career of these employees
31
The rater remember recent actions of the employees at the time of rating and at the
time of basis of these recent action-favorable or unfavorable rather than the whole
activities
Perceptual set:
This occurs when the rater's assessment is influenced by previously held beliefs.
This occurs when the rater's assessment is influenced by previously held beliefs.
Spillover effect:
Status effect
It refers to overrating of employees higher level jobs held in the high esteem, and
underrating employees in lower level job or jobs held in low esteem
32
■ Negative ratings affects inter personal relations and industrial relations
systems.
■ Feedback and post appraisal interview may have a setback on production
■ Management emphasizes on punishment rather than development of
employee in performance appraisal
■ Some ratings particularly about the potential appraisal are purely based on the
guesswork
■ Some superiors completed appraisal reports within a few minutes
33
1. Graphical rating scales:
Graphic rating scales compare individual performance to an absolute standard.
In this method, judgment about performance is recorded on a scale. The appraisers
are supplied with printed forms, one for each employee. These forms contain a
number of objectives, behavior and traits based character and qualities to be rated
like quality and volume of work, job knowledge, initiative etc.,
2.Ranking method:
Under this method the employees are ranked from best to worst on some
characteristics. The rater first finds the employee with the highest performance and
the employee with the lowest performance in that particular job category and rates
the performer as the best and the later as the poorest. Then the rater selects the next
highest and the next lowest and do on until he rates all the employees in that group.
5. Checklist method:
34
The checklist method is a simple rating technique, in which the superior is
given a list of statements or words and asked to check statements representing the
characteristics and performance of each employee.
7. Essay appraisal:
This appraisal method requires manager to write a short essay describing each
employee's performance during the rating period. The format emphasis evaluation
of overall performance based on strength and weakness of the employee
performance rather than specific job dimensions, asking supervisors to enumerate
specific examples of employee's behavior. The essay technique minimizes
supervisory bias and halo effect.
8. Group appraisal:
Under this method an appraiser is by a group of appraisers. This group
consists of the immediate supervisor of the employee to other supervisors who has
close contact with the employee's work, manger or head of the department and
consultants.
9. Confidential reports:
35
Under this method, superior appraise the performance of his subordinates
based on his observation's judgment and intuitions,. The supervisor keeps his
judgment and report confidentially. In other word the superior does not allow the
employee to know the report and his performance.
MODERN METHODS:-
2. Assessment center:
This is not a technique of performance appraisal by itself. In fact it is a system
or organization where various experts do the assessment of several individuals by
using various techniques. In this approach individuals from various departments are
brought together to spend two or three days working on an individual or group
assignment similar to the ones they would be handling when promoted. Observers
rank the performance of each and every participant in order of permit.
36
employee contribution is the money value of employee service, which can be
measured by lab our productivity or value added by human resources
4. Management by objectives:
Management by objectives (MBO) is a process where by the superior and
subordinate managers of an organization jointly identify its common goals, define
each individual major areas of its responsibilities in terms of results expected of
him, and use these measures of guides for operating the unit and assessing the
contribution of it's members.
Thus, MBO focuses attention on participative set goals that are tangible,
verifiable and measurable. The emphasis is on what must be accomplished rather
than how it is to be accomplished.
5. Psychological appraisal:
Psychological appraisals are conducted to assess the employee potential.
Psychological appraisal consists of In-depth interviews Psychological tests
Consultations and discussions with employees Reviews of other evaluations
Discussions with the superiors, subordinates and peers.
37
• Who is to appraise?
In the view of rusher man, one or more individuals involving a combination
of immediate supervisor can accomplish the appraisal. Other manager acquainted
with the assessment work, a higher- level manager a personal manager, peers the
assesses himself and the subordinates.
2. Peers:
Peer appraisal may be reliable if the work group is stable over a reasonably
long period of time and performs tasks that require interaction.
3. Subordinate:
Appraisal by subordinates can be a useful input to the immediate supervisor's
development. This concept is being used on more organizations today, especially in
developed countries. A recent issue of business world has reported the "Bottom-up
appraisal" in Thomas cook where less than five subordinates appraised the
DGM/HRD. It is reposted that Hindustan, Ciba, Wipro all are using 'Upward
appraisal' as a feedback system to improve performance. This bottom-up appraisal
not only gives feedback about the bosses, but also gives to subordinates a feeling of
participation.
4. Self Appraisal:
38
If individual understand the objectives, they are accepted to achieve and the
standard by which they are to be evaluated, they are to a great extent in a best
position to appraise their own performance. Also, since employee development
means self-development. Employees who appraise their own performance may
become highly motivated.
5. Consultants:
Sometimes, consultants may be employed for appraisal when employees or
employers do not trust supervisor appraisal and management does not trust the self-
appraisal or peer appraisal or subordinate appraisal.
A) What to be appraised?
What is to be appraised varies from company to company, management to
management. Importance is given not only to the performance, but also for the
future potential.
The common traits used in appraising personnel are:
• Regularity of attendance
• Self-expression; written or oral
• Ability to work with others
• Leadership styles and ability
• Initiatives
• Technical skills
• Judgment skills
• Creative skills
• Level of acceptance by subordinates
• Knowledge of systems and procedures.
39
B) When to appraise?
Informal appraisals are conducted whenever the superior or personnel
manager feels it necessary. However, systematic appraisals are conducted on a
regular basis. Say for example, every six months or annually. One study of 244
firms found that appraisals are most of them conducted once a year.
C) Where to appraise?
The evaluation normally is done at the work place or office of the supervisors.
Informal may take place at anywhere both on the job, in work situation and off the
job.
D) How to appraise?
The company must decide what different methods are available and which of
them may be used for performance appraisal. On the basis of the comparative
advantages, it is which methods would suit the purpose best.
Counseling:
40
After the performance of the employee is appraisal, the superior should
inform the employee about the level of his performance, the reason for the same,
need for and the methods of improving the performance. The superior should
council the employee about his performance and the methods to improve it.
41
Provide information which helps to council the subordinates.
Provide information to diagnose deficiency in employee regarding skill,
knowledge determine training and developmental needs and prescribe the
means for employee growth.
Provides information for correcting placement.
To prevent grievances and in disciplinary activities.
2. AS A PROCESS:
3. AS A CONTINUOUS PROCESSS:
43
THE APPRAISAL PROCESS
PURPOSE OF APPRAISAL:
44
To decide upon a pay raise where regular pay scales have not been fixed.
Finally performance appraisal can be used to determine whether HR programs
such as selection, training and transfers have effective or not.
The best way to over come the problems is to be provided training to the raters.
In a typical training programme, rater’s shown a video tape of jobs being performed
and asked to rate worker. Ratings made to be each participant placed on a flip chart
and the carious errors are explained. Rate training in no way reduces rating errors
are improves appraisal accuracy. In practice, several factors including the extent to
which pay is tied to performance ratings union pressure, employee turnover time
constraints, and needs to justify ratings may be more important than training. This
means that improvising appraisal accrue cannot just train but also reducing outside
factors such as union pressure and time constraints.
Peers are in a better position to evaluate certain facts of job performance which
the subordinate or supervisors can not do. The appraisals of an employee by his or
her peers can be effective in predicating future management success. One potential
problem is log rolling. Here all the peers simply get together to rate each other high.
Rating committees:
Even when a committee is not used it is common to have the one who makes the
appraisal. This was found to be standard practice in it of 18 companies surveyed in
45
one study. The disadvantage of committee rating is diminishes the role of the
immediate supervisors in the area of training and development.
Self – appraisal:
Self appraisal is best suited where executive development is the main purpose of
evaluation, as the approach enables mangers clearly assesses their areas of
differences. It is also the best thing to use these appraisals for counseling and
development subordinates.
The disadvantage is that the individual may be rate himself excessively high than
it would be if he was rated by superior or peer rate them. They are not as useful for
making salary and promotions decisions.
Appraisal by subordinates:
How ever, subordinates are more comfortable giving anonymous responses and
than those who have to identify themselves at the back end to provide inflated.
The appraisal system is based on s-point rating scale having 10, 8, 6, 4, and 2
points respectively. A total number of 12 factors are included in the form. They are
narrated as bellows.
46
Quality
Job knowledge
Quantity
Dependability
Initiative
Adoptability
Attitude
Attendance
House keeping
Potential
Personality
Supervisory ability
If the person contains extra ordinary ability in the all attitude mentioned above
than he is rated as 10 points and he gets the promotions or increments.
47
and inter personal behaviour apart from technical difficulties the organizations also
face these cultural problems in implementing the appraisal programmes. Pareek has
however argues the instead of reactive mechanisms, the Indian organizations should
adopt the stance of proactive behaviors. The culture factor; need not inhibit the
application of appraisal system. Pareek & Rao have suggested an action program for
designing implementing appraisal system.
Singh have recently received the literature on performance appraisal and have
found that the Indian contribution to its minimal. According to Narian, the adoption
of new management techniques in government would enable the annual reviewing.
helper.
2. Too many objectives often cause confusion.
48
• The supervisor must very thoroughly evaluate the employee performance so
he is capable of meeting challenges about his ratings of his sub-ordinates.
• The results of performance rather than personality traits should be given due
weight. Suggestions for improvement should be directed towards the objective
factor of the job (such as work schedules, output, reports completed, sales made,
losses incurred, profits earned, accomplishments e.t.c.,) individual, as a person
should never be criticized.
• The supervisor should try to analyse the strengths and weaknesses ofan
employee and advice him on correcting the weakness.
• The appraisal programmes should try to analyse the strengths and weaknesses
of an employee and advice him on correcting the weaknesses.
• The appraisal programs should be less time consuming and less costly. At the
same time it should bring the maximum benefits. Which particular technique is to be
adopted for appraisal should be governed by such factor as the size, financial
resources, and philosophy?
• The results of appraisal, particularly when they are negative should be
immediately communicated to the employee, so that they may try to improve their
performance.
• A post appraisal interview should be arranged so, that the employee may be
supplied with feedback and the organization may know the difficulties under which
employee work.
• The standards of performance appraisal can be improved by training of
evaluator. It has been indicated that the appraisers who are trained in how to
evaluate sub-ordinates tends to be more effective appraisers, then those who had not
under gone such training. Lastly many of the problem or hindrances can be
minimized if the right appraisal tools are choosen.
49
SELF REVIEW
Self-review is the process of taking stock of ones performance during the year
and formulating plans for further development.
The self-review exercise starts with the employee reviewing his achievements
against the predefined objectives; targets and critical attributes as recorded in form
one at the beginning of the year. The reflects and up on and writes down in the
relevant portions of part-b of the appraisal form the results he has achieved against
the objectives and the activities he had undertaken in the process areas. He also
notes down separately the capabilities he felt lacking with respect to the critical
attributes for the purpose of discussion with immediate superior during the appraisal
discussion.
50
IMPORTANT FACTORS FACILITATING OR HINDERING WORK
Facilitating and hindering factors would be attributed to any of the following
personal (job knowledge, skill and competence).
Organizational- (structure, policies and system working conditions and
support).
External environment- (government policies, market conditions, performance
of competertors, other socio-economic, political and business conditions outside the
organization).
The self-review provides an opportunity to employee to express himself freely
and to feel good. It also provides an input for feedback and counseling to the
immediate superior.
PERFORMANCE RATING
One of the outcomes of the appraisal exercise is the rating assigned to the
employee performance. After having discussed the performance the immediate
superior enter the ratings against the person objectives in the result and the process
areas on a 0-100 rating scale. The rating in respect of critical attributes that is in
team spirit interpersonal relationship, initiative leadership, resourcefulness, and sub-
51
ordinates development will be done by peer group of the appraisee on a 0-100 rating
scale.
Peer assessment is introduced in the year 2000 and 180 degree appraisal from
2001 it is supposed to move towards 360 degree appraisal.
CRITICAL ATTRIBUTES
The first two of the attributes are common to all caders and the other two are
differentiated between covenanted and non-covenanted employee here as
resourcefulness and communication skills are evaluated for supervisors and
executives, leadership skills and concern for sub-ordinate development is evaluated
for the covenanted cader.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Data Sources;
Primary Data: This consists of original information gathered for specific purposes.
The normal procedure is to interview the people individually and / or in a group, to
get the required data. '
Secondary Data: This consists of the information that already exists somewhere,
either in some Annual Records or Magazines etc, having been collected for another
purpose. Here the researcher has both Primary as well as Secondary data.
Research Approach;
Survey Approach:
The Questionnaire was administered through direct contact with respondents.
57
SAMPLE DESIGN:
Research Instrument:
SAMPLING PLAN:
Sampling Unit: Respondents have been selected from different wings of the
Rayalaseema Thermal Power Project.
Sampling Size: Respondents are mostly selected from the Executive level (i.e.,
Engineering Cadre) so the Sample Size is limited to 120 due to availability and the
busy schedule of the employees.
Sampling Procedure: The Sampling method used was Random Sampling. This
Sampling Method was used because of lack of time and lack of thorough
knowledge about the Universe. The sampling unit mostly selected from Executive
58
level (i.e., Engineering Cadre). The sample size was fixed to 120 respondents; the
