A STUDY ON THE EFFECTIVEVNESS OF TRAINING PROGRAM FOR
EMPLOYEES IN INDUSTRY
INTRODUCTION:
Indian industry is working up to the challenges thrown in by market economy.
To survive in this highly competitive scenario, managers are being pressurized to
improve quality, increase productivity, cut waste and eliminate efficiency. The
collective efforts of the employer and the employee assume relevance in the context.
And this is where human resource management can play a crucial role.
India, through a developing economy, spends $ 50 billion on training each
year where as wealthy USA spends nearly twice as much.
What today and tomorrow’s training programme must focus on are soft skills
such as interpersonal communication, teamwork, innovation and leadership. Most
importantly the training has to be comprehensive, systematic, and continuous and
should be closely linked to the strategy with which the company is planning that will
act as catalyst between customers and the organization.
Training is short-term process utilizing a systematic and organized procedure
by which non-management personnel acquire technical know ledge and skills for a
definite purpose.
DEFINITION:
According to FILPPO training is the act of increasing the knowledge and skills
of an employee for doing a particular job.

METHODS OF TRAINING:
A multitude of methods of training are used to train employees. The most
commonly used methods are:
1. On-the- job training
2. Off-the- job training
1. ON – THE – JOB TRAINING :
Majority of industrial training is of the on – the – job training type. OJT is
conducted at the work site and in the context of job. Often it is in formal as when
an experienced worker shows a trainee how to perform the task jobs.
ADVANTAGES:
1. It is the most effective method as the trainee learns by experience, making him
highly competent, further the method is least expensive since no formal
training is organized.
2. The trainee is highly motivated to learn since he or she is aware of the fact that
his or her success on the job depends on the training received.
3. Finally the training is free from an artificial situation of a classroom. This
contributes to the effectiveness of the programme.
Suffers from certain demerits as well. The experienced employee may lack
expertise or inclination to train the juniors. The training programme it self is not
systematically organized. In addition, a poorly conducted OJT Programme is likely to
create safety hazards, result in damaged products or materials and bring unnecessary
stress to the trainees.
THIS METHOD CONSISTS OF:
1. Orientation training.
2. Job –Instruction training.
3. Apprentice training.
4. Internships and assistant ships.
5. Job rotation.
6. Coaching.

APPRENTICESHIP:
Apprenticeship is formal programmes used to teach various skilled trades.
Typical, the trainee receives both classroom instruction and supervision from
experienced employees on the job.
The original purpose of apprenticeship training programmes were formulated
in 1937, by the National Apprenticeship Act, which created by federal bureau of
apprenticeship and training as part of lab our.
2. OFF –THE-JOB TRAINING:
It simply means the training is not a part of every day’s job activity. The actual
location may be in the company classroom or in the place that is owned by company
or any Universities or Association, which have no connection with the Company.
The methods consist of:
1. Lectures
2. Conferences
3. Group discussion
4. Case studies
5. Role playing
6. T-Group training
7. Programme instruction

INDUSTRIAL BACKGROUND STUDY
Industries are the most vital of all sectors to all the economies of the world
whether developed or developing; industries provide support to the agriculture sector
on one hand and on the other hand produce goods and by exporting these goods earn
foreign currency for the country. Thus they also are called as the back bone of the
economy .The establishment of the industries demands many facilities such as power,
communication systems, transport facilities, nearness to market and to the source of
raw materials and several other facilities. The need for power and communication
facilities gave birth to the electronics industry the industrial revolution took place in
17 century in Britain. The industries initially operated with coal as fuel but in late 18
century with the birth of electronics industry all this changed. Now the industries
became more inclined towards electronics.
With the passage of time the involvement of electronics in ones life has
become inevitable. All of us in some form or the other, directly or indirectly are
consuming electrical goods, electronics has made life simpler. For example consider
earlier sending a letter from Delhi to Bangalore by post would take atleast 4-5days but
now with the arrival of computer which is an electronic device the same mail can be
sent in 5 to 10 minutes or by fax in 10 to 15 minutes.
Because of such wide applications of electronic there are several producers in
different fields of electronics. For example some produce mobile phones, some
produce computers, television sets, music systems etc. In Each field there are many
players, let us take the example of television set producers. We have LG, SAMSUNG,
SONY, BPL etc. What this competition does is it gives the consumer the goods with
better quality at an affordable price. That is why this industry is growing rapidly than
any other industry in the world. Its product range from microwave to complex parts of
machines used for power generation in power plants.
Another reason for the industries wide scope is due to the fast improvement in
the technologies. The large number of the consumers in India has given to many
investors to invest in India.
