Introduction of Human Resource Management Human Resources is an evolving and dynamic field that challenges the ability of even the most seasoned professional to keep abreast of policies, procedures, compliance requirements, and best practices. Human resource management has become the central concern of any organization either in public, private or co-operative sector. Human resources play a vital role in the development of modern economics. In the changing economic environment, HRM is assuming much greater importance than ever before. It is conceived to be different from the traditional and conventional notion of personnel management. A nation with an abundance of physical resources will not benefit itself unless human resources make use of them. In fact, human resource is solely responsible for effective use of physical and natural resource and for the transformation of traditional economics into modern and industrial economics. Meaning Human resource management means employing people developing their resource, utilizing, maintaining and compensating their services in tune with the job and organizational requirement with a view to contribute to the organization, individual and the society. Definition Human resource management is the central sub-system of an organization and it permeates all types of functional management viz. production management marketing management and financial management. Michael J. Jucius defined personnel management as the field of management which has to do with planning, organization, direction and controlling the functions of procuring, developing, maintaining and utilizing a labor force, such that the:
Objectives for which the company is established are attained economically and effectively. Objectives of all levels of personnel are served to the highest possible degree, and Objective of society are duly considered and served. Human Resource Management is an active factor of production; all other factors are capital,
materials, building, plants and machinery etc., all these factors are meaningless if capable persons are not available to work upon these factors to production. Human brain has unlimited energy to think and act. The high efficiency food quality of work depends upon capability of employees. The development of human resources refers to the upgrading of their skills organizational development and prosperity. The present day business complex environment is associated to mature and judicious man power supply and enhancing their abilities for the benefits of the organization. The HRD concept is new and is used in two terms. Macro, which refers to the improvement in qualities and productivity of employees, and Micro level, refers to the improvement in the quality of managers and employees so as to get higher level of productivity and improvement is the quality of work. The HRD is a continuous process which refers to develop effectiveness in a scientific way. This is a program which is referred to accept all new changes without disturbance to production. The HRD is related to all-around development of the employees working is an organization. Evolution of human resource management The history of development of personnel management in India is comparatively of recent origin. But Kautilya had dealt with some of the important aspects of human resources management in his Arthasastra 400 B.C. Government in those days adopted the techniques of HRM as suggested by Kautilya. In its modern sense it had developed only since independence. Though the importance of labor officers was recognized as early as 1929, the appointment of welfare officer to solve labor and welfare problems gained momentum only after the enactment of the factories Act of 1948. Section 49 of the Act required the appointment of welfare officer in companies employing more than 500 workers. At the beginning, government was concerned only with limited aspect of Indian laborers (regulation of recruitment, forwarding and employment) sent to various British colonies in 1830. Importance of human resources
The term human resource can also be explained in the sense that it is resource like any natural resource. It does mean that the management can get and use the skill, knowledge, ability, etc. Human resources are also regarded as human factor, human asset, human capital and the like. The terms labor and manpower had been used widely, denoting mostly the physical abilities and capacities of employees. The term personnel had been used widely in the recent past to denote persons employed in any services. Thus, this term denotes the employee as a whole but it does not clearly denote various components of human resource like skill, knowledge, value etc. People in any organization manifest themselves, not only through individual come to work place; they come with not only technical skills, knowledge etc. But also with their personal feeling, perception, desires, motives, attitude, values etc. therefore, employee management in an organization does mean management of not only technical skills but also other factors of the human resources. Features of human resources management Human resources management is concerned with employees both as individual and as a group in attaining goals. It is also concerned with behavior, emotional and social aspects of personnel. It is concerned with the development of human resource i.e. knowledge, capacity, skills, potentialities and attaining and achieving employees goals including job satisfaction. Human resources management covers all levels (low, middle and top) and categories (unskilled, skilled, technical, professional, clerical and managerial) of employees. It covers both organized and unorganized employees. It applies to the employees in all types of organization in the world (industry, trade, service, commerce, economic, social, religious, political and government departments). Thus, it is common in all types of organizations. Human resources management is a continuous and never ending process. It aims at attaining the goals of organization. Individual and society in an integrated approach. Organization goals may include survival growth and development in addition to profitability, productivity, innovation, excellence etc. Individual employees-goals consist, challenging works, pride, status, recognition, opportunity for development etc. Goals of the society include equal employment opportunity, protecting the disadvantaged distribution of income of minimizing wage differentials, developing and society in general by organizing development activities etc.
Human resources management is a responsibility of all line managers and a function of staff managers and a function of staff managers in an organization. It is concerned mostly with managing human resources at work. Human resources management is the central sub-system of an organization and it permeates all types of functional management, viz., production management, marketing management and financial management.
Human resource management aims at securing unreserved cooperation from all employees in order to attain predetermined goals.
THE ACTIVITY OF NURTURING AND NOURISHING CONSTITUTES IN ESSENCE WHAT IS CALLED WELFARE . 1.2 INTRODUCTION TO WELFARE FACILITIES EMPLOYEE W WELFARE Employee welfare defines as efforts to make life worth living for workmen. These efforts have their origin either in some statute formed by the state or in some local custom or in collective agreement or in the employers own initiative.
To give expression to philanthropic and paternalistic feelings. To win over employees loyalty and increase their morale. To combat trade unionism and socialist ideas. To build up stable labor force, to reduce labor turnover and absenteeism. To develop efficiency and productivity among workers. To save oneself from heavy taxes on surplus profits. To earn goodwill and enhance public image. To reduce the threat of further government intervention. To make recruitment more effective (because these benefits add to job appeal). Welfare includes anything that is done for the comfort and improvement of employees and is
provided over and above the wages. Welfare helps in keeping the morale and motivation of the employees high so as to retain the employees for longer duration. The welfare measures need not be in monetary terms only but in any kind/forms. Employee welfare includes monitoring of working conditions, creation of industrial harmony through infrastructure for health, industrial relations and
insurance against disease, accident and unemployment for the workers and their families. Labor welfare entails all those activities of employer which are directed towards providing the employees with certain facilities and services in addition to wages or salaries. Labor welfare has the following objectives: To provide better life and health to the workers To make the workers happy and satisfied To relieve workers from industrial fatigue and to improve intellectual, cultural and material conditions of living of the workers. The basic features of labor welfare measures are as follows:
Labor welfare includes various facilities, services and amenities provided to workers for improving their health, efficiency, economic betterment and social status. Welfare measures are in addition to regular wages and other economic benefits available to workers due to legal provisions and collective bargaining Labor welfare schemes are flexible and ever-changing. New welfare measures are added to the existing ones from time to time. Welfare measures may be introduced by the employers, government, employees or by any social or charitable agency. The purpose of labor welfare is to bring about the development of the whole personality of the workers to make a better workforce. The very logic behind providing welfare schemes is to create efficient, healthy, loyal and
satisfied labor force for the organization. The purpose of providing such facilities is to make their work life better and also to raise their standard of living. The important Benefits of welfare measures can be summarized as follows:
They provide better physical and mental health to workers and thus promote a healthy work environment Facilities like housing schemes, medical benefits, and education and recreation facilities for workers families help in raising their standards of living. This makes workers to pay more attention towards work and thus increases their productivity.
Employers get stable labor force by providing welfare facilities. Workers take active interest in their jobs and work with a feeling of involvement and participation.
Employee welfare measures increase the productivity of organization and promote healthy industrial relations thereby maintaining industrial peace. The social evils prevalent among the labors such as substance abuse, etc are reduced to a greater extent by the welfare policies. The concept of human resource management has grown out of evolution in India, which passed
through various phases of development. In the beginning of the century, the initial concern was on ending the exploitation in what was the Sweated Industries. Because of this, legislative measures were initiative by the state to protect employees against exploitation by their employees. This gave rise to welfares as the key concept in management of Human Resource. The development of welfare service in industries began in the U.K in the late 20th century, when there was no concern for welfare state and working conditions were appalling. Some paternalistic believed that they had a responsibility to look after employees for both economic and social reasons. Any work whether manual or mental undertaken for a monetary consideration is called labor. Productivity of labor is an effective instrument for economic development. The whole economic condition of the country depends upon increase of the productivity of labor and the management has to assume possible ways without an efficient labor force, capital investment better management, better technology the natural resources are the factors essential for production. However, everything proves meaningless until the labor power is added to all factors. In fact, workers are human beings are capable of holding responsibilities, extending co-operation for achieving objective. They have their own attributes and aspirations which if handled properly lead to the success of industries and growth of economy. Welfare activities fulfilling the basic needs to improve the economic conditions of labor to secure social justice and equity, reduce the industrial unrest and to improve labor productivity. Labor welfare is very important in public sector organization as lakhs of workers are employed in them. After independence public enterprises assumed a dominant role in Indian national economy. Huge chemical and fertilizer factories, engineering companies, building railway engines and Coaches; companies producing finished consumer goods such a drugs, watches, surgical instruments and photos films are the various dimensions of public sector activity in India. In a welfare state where the philosophy of socialistic pattern of society is followed, it is imperative to have a contended labor force enjoying reasonable standard of living with adequate facilities. Hence in view of the importance of labor welfare an attempt made in this study to enquire in to the social security and welfare activities in NTPC.
