    27/37

    1) Mobility

    7.1__Promotion:

    Promoting entry-level employees to more responsible positions is one of the best

    ways to fill job vacancies and important reason in DUBAI ISLAMIC BANK, which

    do by human resource planning system. DUBAI ISLAMIC BANK that has human

    resource planning system uses succession plans and replacement charts to

    identify and prepare individuals for upper level positions. Skills inventories are

    useful in identifying individuals who have the potential for advancement, and

    individuals desire to be promoted can be assessed in the performance appraisal

    review. A promotion from within policy can stimulate great motivation among

    employee, and this motivation is often accompanied by a general improvement in

    the employee morale. Tests are also conducted in order to promote employees.

    In DIB promotion are made on the basis of :

    Seniority

    Merit

    performance

    7.2__Transfer:Employees are transferred in order to maintain demand and supply and to

    balance the surplus and deficiency of employees. In DIB transfer are made where in other

    28/37

    In DUBAI ISLAMIC BANK demotions have long been associated with failure, but

    limited promotional opportunities in the future and the fast pace of technological

    Change may make them more legitimate career options. This type of case has

    not come in the notice of the higher authority presently.

    2) SEPARATION:

    7.4__Layoff:

    There are many alternative methods in DUBAI ISLAMIC BANK of reducing labor

    Cost. That management should explore before deciding to conduct a layoff.

    These alternatives include things such as early retirements, employment policies

    (Attrition and hiring freeze), job redesign (job sharing), pay and benefits policies

    (Pay freezes and cuts), training, and other voluntary workforce reductions. A

    layoff can be a traumatic event that affects the lives of thousands of people, so

    managers implement the layoff carefully in DUBAI ISLAMIC BANK. Issues that

    need to be considered include how to notify employees, developing layoff criteria,

    Communicating to laid-off employees, coordinating media relations, maintaining

    security, and reassuring survivors of the layoff.

    7.5__Termination:

    Involuntary separations occur when management decides to

    terminate its relationship with an employee due to big blunder, corruption and

    disciplinary action etc. or a poor fit between the employee and the organization.

    7.6__Resignation:As per DUBAI ISLAMIC BANK rules any employee right to resign his/ her

    services although if he/she has not gone to NSRC abroad within past two years.

    month and if he/ she did not so, then the last month salary will be deducted otherwise he /

    she

    would be terminated.

    7.7__Retirement:

    As retirement becomes an inevitable reality, in the decline stage, there is

    frequently a period of adjustment, where many begin to accept reduced levels of

    power and responsibility. This type of policy is only made for Ex-DGR staff and

    deputed staff.

    31/37

    SWOT is an acronym for an organizations strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and

    threats. A SWOT analysis consists of sizing up a firms internal strengths and

    weaknesses and its external opportunities and threats. Its a tool, to get a quick

    overview on a firms strategies situation. The SWOT analysis of DIB, Main Branch

    Peshawar is as follows:

    8.1__STRIENGTH OF DIB:

    NBP, Main Branch Peshawar is a profitable branch.

    Most economical pricing of products and services as compared to other

    banks.

    Easy assess to the customers at their residential localities through a

    high number of branches.

    Considered to be a trustworthy and highly secure bank.

    In the past and presently having a marketing strategy in place and

    therefore able to tap into the vast market.

    The branch staff is motivated to make it one of the best branches

    8.2__ WEAKNESSES OF THE BRANCH:

    There are some weaknesses of the branch. Which are discussed

    Below?

    Tall bureaucratic structure that is inappropriate for a commercial bank and

    limits progressive activities. The tall structure has results in a smaller span

    of control which has led to less delegation of authority. This has minimized

    the growth of DIB.

    Not targeting and paying attention to higher class accounts like corporate

    accounts.

    38

  • 8/3/2019 page# 8 to 45

    32/37

    No implementation of modern technology in small branches in rural areas.

    Employees behavior with the customers is ordinary and below the average in

    small branches.

    The authority of the manager in decision-making is limited.

    Employees are facing fears of downsizing.

    8.3__Opportunities:

    An opportunity exists in form of opining a separate ladies department

    within the branch, in order to give equal opportunity to ladies.

    Growing polices of the government on businesss and commerce sector

    provides DIB an opportunity to efficiently meet business peoples

    requirement of instant cash financing facilities.

    Customer feedback on various products and services could be immense

    help to DIB.

    DIB has opportunity to introduce latest technology in small branches.

    With the introduction of more branded products and services DIB couldgrab the market from other nationalized and foreign banks. Customers

    already trust DIB and with the introduction of such products it would be an

    incentive for them to become customers.

    Employees should be sent for training and seminars to get advanced

    knowledge about banking.

    8.4__Threats:

    The increased number of nationalized banks becoming privatized and

    foreign banks operating in Pakistan is a major threat for DIB.

    The aggressive marketing campaigns of foreign and private banks result in

    customers shifting their money to these banks.

    39

    Recommendation and improvement

    40

  • 8/3/2019 page# 8 to 45

    34/37

    9.1__ Recommendations for Improvement:

    From the quantum of profit and its financial date it can be easily judged that after

    privatization, Dubai islamic bank is performing well. Its deposits are rowing day-by-

    day and so its profitability. The controlling body is responsible for the productive

    performance of the bank following are many observation and suggestion to improve the

    efficiency for the development of economy:

    1) Pakistanis working abroad through DIB send a big portion of one remittance. As

    we know a big portion of this amount is wasted in purchase of luxuries. The

    people can be motivated to save money by offering various investment schemes.

    The rate of profit should increase 1% or 2% than other banks and it would be

    profitable step for bank..

    2) Staff turnover particularly of trained staff result in financial and other losses. The

    amount spent by bank on employment, induction and training of outgoing officers

    constitutes to beat till another officer should ready prove this work. The exodus of

    bank officer in the past has worsened the situation.

    3) Most of the bank employees are sticking to one seat only with the result that they

    become master of one particular job and loose their grip on other banking

    operations. In my option all the employees should have regular job experience all

    out-look towards banking. The promotion policy should be reviewed.

    4) Refresher coursed for the staff is most important in any international organization.

    All the employees should have these coursed according to their requirement.

    Foreign experts can also be called for this purpose.

    5) Every year some of the employees should be sent for training to another countries

    and employees form other branches should be brought here. Some more riding

    material should be provided. The purpose should be to educate the employees

    41

  • 8/3/2019 page# 8 to 45

    35/37

    with the advance studies in their fields. The employees should be provided the

    opportunities to attend and participate in seminars and lectures on banking.

    6) Banks should give some more incentive to its employees in order to remove the

    conflict between lower and higher officers and should try to improve the working

    condition of the bank. As such, system should be designed that every employee who

    has some problems with his officers can communication it to higher management and

    some steps must be taken to improve that.

    7) A proper and conducive centrally managed Internship System should be designed,

    so that the forthcoming business students could be able to get firsthand practical

    touch.

    8) For the last many years, the management of DIB is continuously closing its

    unprofitable branches and lying of the personnel of these branches. This is

    creating a situation of unemployment in the country. This should be stopped and

    an incentive for the bank personnel should be introduced.

    9) The management of the bank should take care of its shareholders and a stable

    policy regarding cash dividend should be adopted.

    10) The bank management should formulate such policies as to target home

    appliances market for middle class group because it is a larger market available

    with the bank to serve. In this regard proper leasing schemes should be

    introduced.

    11) The process of establishing On-line Banking system should be conducted at a fast

    pace, so that a large number of clients could be served.

    12) The automation process should be conducted at a fast pace.

    13) The bank should take into series attention to conduct foreign business. Otherwise,

    foreign banks will capture the foreign market. In this respect the bank should

    capitalize its huge branch network.

    14) The ATM machines and other instruments of the banks should be user-friendly.

    9.2__Conclusion:

    It is evident from this report and the financial statements of DIB that it is making

    progress by leaps and bounds. The profits of DIB have grown considerably during the

    last few years and this trend is expected to continue into the future. Therefore, we

    conclude that DIB has a very prosperous present and future, which assures the

    shareholders of wealth maximization. Side by side of it I think that if bank would be able

    to cover and control on the above mentioned recommendations then it would be in such a

    situation that will really lead it towards the road of prosperity, development and integrity.

    And with the above mentioned sentences I think there is too fault of the customers and in

    order to make the proper working of the bank the customers should also cooperate with

    the bank which will be really a good, ambitious and diligent condition for the bank. And

    then bank will be really in such a situation and position to compete its competitors in the

    country as well as on international level.
