    INTRODUCTION

    1.1 Theoretical Background

    Welfare provides the satisfaction to the employee that increases their

    productivity. This is the responsibility of the organization to provide the benefits to

    the employees. If employees are satisfied, it increases the productivity of the

    employees and also provides the growth to the organization. Now a day employees

    are considered as a valuable assets of the organization if these assets are glossed

    over, it leaves an adverse impact on the growth of the organization. Growth and

    development of the organization is directly proportionate to the welfare of the

  • 7/28/2019 49687426 Employee Welfare

    5/93

    human power. So the employee welfare is one of the important elements of the

    organization. Welfare aim is to increase the productivity in an organization.

    Welfare always has a positive impact on the relationship between management and

    employees. Welfare is an important function of the HR department. Every

    department in an organization formulates their objective in accordance with the

    organization objectives and to achieve those objectives strategies are formulated.

    HR strategy follows organizational strategy with some interactive linking.

    This project investigated the welfare programmes adopted by the SU-Kam

    Baddi (Solan) and the main criterion is to study the degree of satisfaction of

    employee and the awareness about the welfare programmes.

    Welfare provide the satisfaction to the employees the increase their productivity.

    And training is one of the welfare activities in the press. Training refers to the act

    of increasing the knowledge and skills of an employee for doing a particular job.

    Training implies activities that teach employees how to perform their jobs better.

    Selecting people of quality with caliber and potential is not enough in todays

    competitive world. They need to be trained and groomed to make bloom and

    contribute their best. After a person is selected and appointed to the position or job

    for which he was selected, the next task for the manager is to see that he adjusts

    himself in the job as quickly as possible so that he may be able to perform his job

    efficiently and successfully. He may be in the need of some training to sharpen his

    knowledge and skills so that he may perform his job well.

    Even experienced employees with a long service need to improve their

    knowledge and skills so as to perform their job in a more efficient way. They also

    need to update their knowledge and acquire improved skills to retain and improve

    their position in the organization. They also need to be groomed and development

    to meet their future responsibilities and to reach higher levels of managerial

    positions. All this required consistent and continuous programmes of training and

  • 7/28/2019 49687426 Employee Welfare

    6/93

    development. It is responsibility of the personnel department to devise a

    continuous and proper training and development programmes to fulfill enterprise

    present goals and future needs.

    8/93

    The significance of welfare measure was accepted as early as 1931, when

    the royal commission on lanour stated the benefits are of great importance to the

    worker which he is unable to secure by himself. The scheme of labour welfare may

    be regarded as a wise investment because these would bring a profitable return in

    the form of greater efficiency.

    The working environment in a factory adversely affects the health of

    employees because of employees because of excessive heat or cold, noise, downs,

    fumes, dust and lack of sanitation and pure air. Such oppressive condition creates

    health problems for workers.

    1.3 Purpose of the Labour Welfare

    2. Raise the standard of living of the worker by indirectly reducing the burden

    on their pocket. Welfare measures will improve the physically or

    psychologically health of the workers, which in turn, will enhance their

    efficiency and productivity.

    3. Absorbs the shocks injected by industrialization and urbanization on

    workers.

    4. Promotes a sense of belonging among workers, prevention them from

    resorting to unhealthy practices like absenteeism, labour turnover etc.

    5. Welfare makes the service in mills more attractive to workers. it improve the

    relation between employers and employees, it promotes a real change of

    heart and a change of outlook on the part of both the employers and

    employees

    well equipped hospital in Jamshedpur, supported by health centers and

    dispensaries, clubs, reaches, canteens; schools are also set up by TISCO for

    the benefits of workers.

    4. Trade union: - The contribution of trade unions in India towards labour

    welfare activities is not significant. Poor finances, multiple unionisms often

    1.6 Principals of Labour Welfare Services

    1. The services should satisfy real need of the workers this means that the

    manager should first determined what is the employees real need with the

    active participation of workers. In one case a company manager who had a

    bias for sports purchased all sport facilities and hired a sport purchased all

    sports director without consulting workers. But when the whistle was blown

    to play the ball nobody wanted to play.

    2. The service should be such as can be handled by cafeteria approach due to

    the difference in sex, age, marital, status number of children, type of job

    and the income level of employees there are large differences in type heir

    choice of a particular benefit. Hence it is suggested that a package total

    value of benefits should be determines and the selection of the mix of

    benefits should be left to the choice of each individual employee.

    3. The employer should not assume a benevolent posture.

    4. The cost of the services should be calculable and its financing established on

    a sound basis.

    5. There should be periodic assessment or evaluation of the service and

    necessary timely improvement on the basis of feed back.

    always has a positive impact on the relationship between management and

    employees. Now a day employees are considered as valuable assets of the

    organization if these assets are glossed over, it leave an adverse impact on the

    growth of the organization is directly proportionate to the welfare is one of the

    important elements of the organization.

    The main aim of the welfare is to increase productivity, reduction in the

    level of supervision, increase organizational stability and flexibility, increase job

    satisfaction and moral among employees increased employee motivation, increased

    efficiency in processes, resulting in financial gain, increase capacity to adopt new

    technologies and methods, increased innovation in strategies and products,

    Reduced employee turnover.

    The primary and the most essential objective of welfare is to develop that

    knowledge and those skill and attitudes, which contribute to the welfare of the

    organization and the employees. Welfare aims at making the employee more

    effective and productivities in their potential for higher job. To give experience to

    philanthropic and paternalistic, to win over employees loyalty and increase theirmoral to combat trade unionism and socialist ideas to build up stable labour force,

    Welfare facilities are mainly divided into the two parts Intramural

    activities: Which are provide within the establishment such as latrines and urinals,

    crches, rest room, canteens, uniforms, library, medical aid, subsidized food, shift

    allowance etc.

    Extramural activities: Which are undertaken outside the establishment such as

    family planning child welfare cooperative stores, credit societies, vocational

    guidance, holidays hones, leave travel facilities, transport to and from the place of

    work etc.

    Principal of labour welfare services the services should satisfy real need of

    the workers this means that the manager first determines what is the employee real

    need with the active participation of workers. In one case a company manager who

    had a bias for sports purchased all sport facilities and hired a sport purchased all

    sports director without consulting workers. But when the whistle was blown to

    play the ball nobody wanted to play.

    The service should be such as can be handled by cafeteria approach due to

    the difference in sex, age, marital, status number of children, type of job and the

    income level of employees there are large differences in type heir choice of a

    particular benefit. Hence it is suggested that a package total value of benefits

    should be determines and the selection of the mix of benefits should be left to the

    choice of each individual employee. The employer should not assume a benevolent

    posture. The cost of the services should be calculable and its financing established

    On a sound basis. There should be periodic assessment or evaluation of the

    service and necessary timely improvement on the basis of feedback.

    For the welfare of the employees certain act were made by the govt. such as:

    The Factory Act 1948, it provide the health safety and welfare facilities to the

    employees. The Employees State Insurance Act, 1948 introduce important social

    schemes. The urgency of such schemes has been more badly felt after world-war
