INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION 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 employer's own initiative.

To give expression to philanthropic and paternalistic feelings.

To win over employee's loyalty and increase their morale.

To combat trade unionism and socialist ideas.

To build up stable labour force, to reduce labour 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 makerecruitmentmore effective (because these benefits add to job appeal).

Principles of Employee Welfare Service Following are generally given as the principles to be followed in setting up a employee welfare service:

The service should satisfy real needs of the workers. This means that the manager must first determine what the employee's real needs are with the active participation of workers. The service should 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 their choice of a particular benefit. This is known as the cafeteria approach. Such an approach individualises the benefit system though it may be difficult to operate and administer.

The employer should not assume a benevolent posture.

The cost of the service should be calculate and its financing established on a sound basis.

There should be periodical assessment or evaluation of the service and necessary timely on the basis of feedback.

OBJECTIVES OF EMPLOYEE WELFARETo study the concept of labour welfare and identify various statutory and non-statutory welfare measures.To place the company in a good position in the competitive market by fulfilling empoyee needs.To identify the various welfare measures, provided bythe companyto its employees.To elicit the perception of respondents on the existing welfare measures, provided by the company.To offer useful suggestions and to bring out improvement in the existing welfare measures, of the organization.Types of Employee Welfare ServicesSafety ServicesPrevention of accidents is an objective which requires o explanation.

The costs of accidents are enormous in suffering to the injured, in reduction or loss of earnings, in disabilities and incapacities which afflict those involved and in compensation, insurance and legal costs, in lost time, filling in reports and attending to enquiries, and in spoilage of materials, equipment and tools to management.

Accidents are the consequence of two basic factors: technical and human. Technical factors include all engineering deficiencies, related to plant, tools material and general work environment. Thus, for example, improper lighting, inadequate ventilation, poor machine guarding and careless housekeeping are some hazards which may cause accidents. Human factors include all unsafe acts on the part of employees. An unsafe act is usually the result of carelessness.

Young and new employees, because of their difficulty in adjusting to the work situation and to life in general, also have many more accidents than do old and nature workers.

The Phenomenon of Accident Proneness. Some persons believe wrongly in the theory that certain individuals are accident prone, that is , they have some personality trait as opposed to some characteristic of the environment which predisposes them to have more accidents than others in work condition where the risk of hazards is equal to all.

Components of a Safety ServiceAmong the many components of a safety service the following have proved effective when applied in combination:

Appointment of safety officerIn big organizations, the appointment of a safety officer to head

the safety department is a must. In small organizations, the personnel manager may look after the functions of this department. The head of the safety department, who is usually a staff man, is granted power to inspect the plant for unsafe condition, to promote sound safety practices (through posters an d safety campaigns), to make safety rules, and to report violations to the plant manager.

Support by line management :The head of the safety department, whether enjoying a staff or a functional position, by himself, cannot make a plan safe. His appointment lulls line management into assuming that all its safety problems have been solved.

Elimination of hazardsAlthough complete elimation of all hazards is virtually an

impossibility but following steps can be taken to help reduce them:

Job safety analysisAll job procedures and practices should be analysed by

an expert to discover hazards. he should then suggest changes in their motion patterns, sequence and the like.

PlacementA poorly placed employee is more apt to incur injury

than a properly placed employee. Employees should be placed on jobs only after carefully estimating and considering the job requirements with those which the individual apparently possesses.

Personal protective equipmentEndless variety of personal safety equipment is available

nowadays which can be used to prevent injuries Safeguarding machineryGuards must be securely fixed to all powerdriven

machinery.

Materials handlingThough often ignored, the careless handling of heavy and

inflammable materials is an important source of several injuries and fire.

Hand toolsMinor injuries often result from improperly using a good

tool or using a poorly designed tool. Therefore, close supervision and instruction should be given to the employees on the proper tool to use an the proper use of the tool.

Safety training, education and publicitySafety training is concerned with developing safety skills,

whereas safety education is concerned with increasing contest programmes, safety campaigns, suggestion awards, and various audiovisual aids can be considered as different forms of employee education.

Safety inspectionAn inspection by a trained individual or a committee to detect

evidence of possible safety hazards (such as poor lighting, slippery floors, unguarded machines, faulty electrical installations, poor work methods and disregard of safety rules) is a very effective device to promote safety.

Health ServicesThe prevention of accident constitutes only on segment of the function of employee maintenance. Another equally important segment is the employee's general health, both physical and mental.

There are two aspects of industrial health services

1. Preventive

2. Curative, the former consists of

3. pre-employment and periodicmedical examination,

4. removal or reduction of health hazards to the maximum extent possible,

5. Surveillance over certain classes of workers such as women, young persons and persons exposed to special risks.

CounselingServices An employee very often comes across problems which have emotional content. For example, he may be nearing retirement and feeling insecure or he may be getting promotion and feeling hesitant to shoulder increased responsibility or he may be worried due to some family problem.

Employee Welfare in India

The chapter on the Directive Principles of State Policy in our Constitution expresses the need for labour welfare thus:

1. The State shall strive to promote the welfare of the people by securing and protecting as effectively as it may a social order in which justice, social, economic and political, shall inform all the institutions of the national life.

The welfare measures financed out of the funds relate to development of medical facilities, housing, supply of drinking water, support for education of dependents and recreation, etc.

Voluntary Benefits

Benefits are also given voluntarily to workers by some progressive employers. These include loans for purchasing houses and for educating children, leave travel concession, fair price shops for essential commodities and loans to buy personal conveyance.

Machinery Connected with Employee Welfare Work

1.Chief inspector of FactoriesIt is the duty of the Chief inspector of factories (who generally works under the administrative control of the labour commissioner in each state) to ensure enforcement of various provisions of Factories Act i8n respect of safety, heath and welfare of workers.

2.Central Labour InstituteThe institute was set up in Bombay in 1966 to facilitate the proper implementation of the Factories Act, 1948; to provide a centre of information for inspectors, employers, workers and others concerned with the well being of industrial labour and to stimulate interest in the application of the principles of industrial safety, health and welfare.

3.National Safety CouncilThe National Safety Council was wet up on 4th March, 1966 in Bombay at the initiative of the Union Ministry of Labour and Rehabilitation, Government of India, as an autonomous national body with the objective of generating developing and sustaining an movement of safety awareness at the national level.

4.Director General of Mines SafetyThe Director General of Mines Safety enforces the Mines Act, 1952. He inspects electrical installation and machinery provided in the mines and determines the thickness of barriers of 2 adjacent mines in order to prevent spread of fire and danger of inundation.

Appraisal of Welfare Services1. One of the main obstacles in the effective enforcement of the welfare provisions of the Factories Act has been the quantitative and qualitative inadequacy of the inspection staff.

2. at present, a labour welfare officer is not able to enforce laws independently because he has to work under the pressure of management.

3. Women workers do not make use of the crche facilities either because they are dissuaded by the management to bring their children with them or because they have to face transport difficulties.

National Commission on Employee Recommendations1. The statutory provisions on safety are adequate for the time being effective enforcement is the current need.

2. Every fatal accident should thoroughly be enquired into and given wide publicity among workers.

3. Employers should play a more concerted role in safety and accident prevention programme and in arousing safety consciousness.

4. Safety should become a habit with the employers and workers instead of remaining a mere ritual as at present.

5. Unions should take at least as much interest in safety promotion as they take in claims for higher wages.

SOCIAL SECURITY The connotation of the term "Social Security" varies form country to country with different political ideologies. In socialist countries, the avowed goal is complete protection to every citizen form the cradle to the grave.

There are some components of Social Security:

Medical care

Sickness benefit

Unemployment benefit

Old-age benefit

Employment injury benefit

Family benefit

Maternity benefit

Invalidity benefit and

Survivor's benefit

Social Securities may be of two types1. Social assistance under which the State finances the entire cost of the facilities and benefits provided.

2. Social insurance, under the State organizes the facilities financed by contributions form the workers and employers, with or without a subsidy from the state.

Social Security in India At present both types of social security schemes are in vogue in our country. Among the social assistance schemes are the most important.

The social insurance method, which has gained much wider acceptance than the social assistance method, consists of the following enactments.

The workmen's Compensation Act, 1961.

The Employee's State Insurance Act, 1948.

The employees' State Insurance Act, 1948.

The Maternity Benefit Act, 1961.

Employees' compensation Act, 1923

a. Coverage. This Act covers all workers employed in factories, mines, plantations, transport undertakings, construction works, railways, ships, circus and other hazardous occupations specified in schedule II of the Act.

The Act empowers the State Government to extend the coverage of the Act by adding any hazardous occupation to the list of such occupations is schedule II.

1. Administration. The Act is administered by the State Government which appoints Commissioners for this purpose under sec. 20 of the Act.

2. Benefits. Under the Act, compensation is payable by the employer to a workman for all personal injuries caused to him by accident arising out of and in the course of his employment which disable him for more than 3 days.

2.Employees' State Insurance Act, 19481. Other than seasonal factories, run with power and employing 20 or more workers.

2. Administration. The Act is administered by the ESI corporation, an autonomous body consisting of representatives of the Central and State Governments, employers, employees, medical profession and parliament.

3. Benefits. The Act, which provides for a system of compulsory insurance, is a landmark in the history of social security legislation in India.

1. Medical Benefit. An insured person or (where medical benefit bas been extended to his family) a member of his family who requires medical treatment is entitled to receive medical benefit free of charge.

2. Sickness Benefit. An insured person, when he is sick, is also entitled to get sickness benefit at the standard benefit rate corresponding to his average daily wage.

3. An insured woman is entitled to receive maternity benefit (which is twice the sickness benefit rate) for all days on which she does not work for remaining during a period of 12 weeks of which not more than 6 weeks shall precede the expected date of confinement.

4. The Act makes a three-fold classification of injuries in the same way as is done in the workmen's compensation Act.

5. Dependant's Benefit. If an insured person meets with an accident in the course of his employment an dies as a result thereof, his dependants, i.e. his widow, legitimate or adopted sons and legitimate unmarried daughters get this benefit.

3.The Maternity Benefit Act, 1961Maternity benefit is one of the important benefits provided under the

Employees State Insurance Act, 1948. Another important legislation in this respect is the Maternity Benefit Act, 1961. The Act covers only those persons who are not covered by the Employees State Insurance Act. The Act entitles a woman employee to claim maternity leave from her employer if she has actually worked for a period of at least 160 days in the 12 months immediately proceeding the day of her expected delivery.

The act further provides for the payment of medical bonus of Rs. 250

to the confined woman worker.

The committee on the status of women in India 1974 has, there fore,

recommended the following changes in the Act:

1. The administration of the fund should follow the pattern already established by the ESIC.

2. For casual labour a minimum of 3 months of service should be considered as qualification service for this benefit.

3. This will provide greater incentive to women workers to participate in trade union activities.

1.The Payment of Gratuity Act, 19721. Coverage. The Act applies to every factory, mine, oilfield, plantation, port and railway company and to every shop or establishment in which 10 or more persons are employed, or were employed, on any day of the preceding 12 months.

2. Administration. The Act is administered by a controlling authority appointed by the appropriate Government.

3. Benefits. Under the Act gratuity is payable to an employee on the termination of his employment after he has rendered continuous service for not less than five years. The completion of continuous service of five years is, how ever, not necessary where the termination of the employment is due to death or disablementGratuity is payable at the rate of 15 days' wages based on the rate of wages last drawn by the employee for every complete year of service or part thereof in excess of six months. But the amount of gratuity payable to an employee shall not exceed Rs. 3.5 lakh.

4. Source of Funds. Under the Act gratuity is payable entirely by the Employer. For this purpose is required either (i) to obtain insurance with the Life Insurance Corporation, or (ii) to establish a gratuity fund.Thus it is his liability to pay the premium in the first case to make the contribution in the second case.

Organizations provide welfare facilities to their employees to keep their motivation levels high. The employee welfare schemes can be classified into two categories viz. statutory and non-statutory welfare schemes. The statutory schemes are those schemes that are compulsory to provide by an organization as compliance to the laws governing employee health and safety. These include provisions provided in industrial acts like Factories Act 1948, Dock Workers Act (safety, health and welfare) 1986, Mines Act 1962. The non statutory schemes differ from organization to organization and from industry to industry.

STATUTORY WELFARE SCHEMES

The statutory welfare schemes include the following provisions:

1. Drinking Water:At all the working places safe hygienic drinking water should be provided.

2. Facilities for sitting:In every organization, especially factories, suitable seating arrangements are to be provided.

3. First aid appliances:First aid appliances are to be provided and should be readily assessable so that in case of any minor accident initial medication can be provided to the needed employee.

4. Latrines and Urinals:A sufficient number of latrines and urinals are to be provided in the office and factory premises and are also to be maintained in a neat and clean condition.

5. Canteen facilities:Cafeteria or canteens are to be provided by the employer so as to provide hygienic and nutritious food to the employees.

6. Spittoons:In every work place, such as ware houses, store places, in the dock area and office premises spittoons are to be provided in convenient places and same are to be maintained in a hygienic condition.

7. Lighting:Proper and sufficient lights are to be provided for employees so that they can work safely during the night shifts.

8. Washing places:Adequate washing places such as bathrooms, wash basins with tap and tap on the stand pipe are provided in the port area in the vicinity of the work places.

9. Changing rooms:Adequate changing rooms are to be provided for workers to change their cloth in the factory area and office premises. Adequate lockers are also provided to the workers to keep their clothes and belongings.

10. Rest rooms:Adequate numbers of restrooms are provided to the workers with provisions of water supply, wash basins, toilets, bathrooms, etc.

NON STATUTORY SCHEMES

Many non statutory welfare schemes may include the following schemes:

1. Personal Health Care (Regular medical check-ups):Some of the companies provide the facility for extensive health check-up

2. Flexi-time:The main objective of the flextime policy is to provide opportunity to employees to work with flexible working schedules. Flexible work schedules are initiated by employees and approved by management to meet business commitments while supporting employee personal life needs

3. Employee Assistance Programs:Various assistant programs are arranged like external counseling service so that employees or members of their immediate family can get counseling on various matters.

4. Harassment Policy:To protect an employee from harassments of any kind, guidelines are provided for proper action and also for protecting the aggrieved employee.

5. Maternity & Adoption Leave Employees can avail maternity or adoption leaves. Paternity leave policies have also been introduced by various companies.

6. Medi-claim Insurance Scheme:This insurance scheme provides adequate insurance coverage of employees for expenses related to hospitalization due to illness, disease or injury or pregnancy.

7. Employee Referral Scheme:In several companies employee referral scheme is implemented to encourage employees to refer friends and relatives for employment in the organization.

RESEARCH DESIGN

RESEARCH DESIGN OF THE PROJECT

PROJECT TITLE :

A study on employee welfare measures at KS & DL LTD in Anna Nagar, Chennai.

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM :

As a business, the company have to provide various benefits to ensure the employees' welfare. While this may increase the business expense and negatively affect your bottom line, looking after employees will benefit you in other ways. In fact, it's almost impossible to operate a business without offering a basic set of benefits for the employees' welfare. Therefore it is important to know the effect of employee welfares at KS & DL .Hence the study entitled A study on employee welfare measures at KS & DL.

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY :

Employees are one of the companys greatest assets. What they say about the company, how they act in the workplace, and how happy they are in their roles all impact on the brand, your image, your levels of service and ultimately your customers satisfaction.In addition they have a right to wages also , but high wage alone cannot create healthy working environment nor healthy working environment cannot create employee satisfaction. Since employees are one of the most important resources of an organization it is important to study about what welfare are being provided to them.

To know about the employees attitude and satisfaction level towards the welfare measures.

To know about the safety measures the company offers to the employees.

To know about the welfare measures adopted by the company in accordance with the upgradation of technologies.

SCOPE OF THE STUDY :

The study covers the theoretical aspects regarding welfare measures and employees satisfaction. The study also covers the procedure of welfare measures and its effectiveness on employees adopted by the company.

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY :

To study the welfare measures adopted by the organization. To study the effectiveness of welfare measures. To find out what are the welfare schemes within the organization To find out whether employees are satisfied with the welfare measures To find out whether these measures are of benefit to the employees.DEFINITION OF CONCEPTS :

Employee :

An employee generally includes any individual who performs services if the relationship between the individual and the person for whom the services are performed is the legal relationship ofemployerand employee.

COMPANY PROFILE

HISTORY OF THE SOAPSoap manufacturing was started in North America.

Some American companies with wellknown names were started 200 years ago.During middle agesoap was made at various places in Italy, France,England & other countries. France became famous & many small factorieswere established there. In India the first soap industry was established by North West soap companyin1897 at Meerut following the swadeshi movement. From 1905 onwards few more factories were setup. They are : Mysore soap factory at Bangalore Godrej soap at Bombay

Bengal chemicals

Tata oil mills 1930 lever brothers company

THE INDIAN SOAP INDUSTRY SCENARIO

The Indian soap industry has long been dominated by hand full of companies such as:1. Hindustan levers limited.2. Tata oil mills (taken over by HLL)

3. Godrej soaps private limited. The Indian soap industry continued to flourish very well until 1967-68, butbegan to stagnate & soon it started torecover & experienced a short upswing in1974. This increase in demand can be attributed due to;1. Growth of population.2 .Income & consumption increase.3. increase inurbanization.4. Growth in degree of personal hygiene.

Soap manufacture has 2classifications, organized and unorganized sectors. KSDL comes under organized sector.PRESENT STATUSMarket scenario:India is the ideal market for cleaning products. Hindustan liver, which towers over the cleaning business, sells in all over the cleaning business but the tiniest ofIndian settlements. The 7.4lakhs tons per annum soap marketin India in crawling along at 4%The hope lies in raising Rupee worth, the potential for which is high because the Indian soap market is pseudo in nature & it is amazingly complex being segmented not only on the basis of price benefits, but even a range ofemotions within that outlining framework.

PROBLEMS OF SOAP INDUSTRYSoap industry faces some problems in caseof raw materials. The majoringredients are soap ash, linear alkyl, benzene& sodium. Tripoli phosphate poses number of serious problems in terms of availability. The demand supply gap for vegetable oil is 1.5 2 lakh tons and is met through imports. In recent times, caustic soda and soap ashes in the cheaper varieties of soaps are quite high.HISTORY OF DETERGENTS

Detergents were developed due to the problems that occurred when organic soap was used in areas ofhard water. Hard water contains the ions of Calcium and Magnesium in high amounts and these are substituted onto the soap molecule in place of sodium. The salts of Calcium and Magnesium are insoluble and form a precipitate, this is what leaves a 'ring' around the bath.Other problems were encountered in the textile industry where acid solutions are used in the dying process. The free H+ions replace the sodium ion reforming the fatty acid which affects the application of dyes and leaves spots on fabrics.The first synthetic detergents were developed following the first world war by the Germans so that fat could be used for other purposes. The first synthetic detergents wereShort-chain Alkyl Napthalene Sulphonateswhich were later discovered to be only moderately good detergents and so were improved, but are still used today as wetting agents

In the 1920's and 30's Straight chain alcohols were sulphonated to give straight chain detergents. In the 30's long chain alkyl and aryl sulphonates withbenzeneas the aromatic nucleus were developed. (the alkyl portion was derived from kerosene) By the end of World War 2alkyl aryl sulphonatesswamped the detergent market over alcohol sulphates which later became useful in the shampoo industry.It was a popular complaint at this time that whites dulled after washing, they weren't as white as white should be and this was linked to the use of synthetic detergents. Even though they were just as good as soaps at removing dirt, they were poor at holding it in suspension and the particles redeposited onto the clothing. The problem was overcome by the addition ofCMC(carboxy methyl cellulose).

More recently the limiting factor that affected the production of specific detergents was availability of raw materials. This lead to the development ofIgepon compounds in Germany and the USA (for example Igepon-T, the sodium salt of oleyl tauride),Mersolatesin Germany (alkane sulphates), andTeepolin England (a secondary Olefine Sulphate from petrochemical sources). Alkyl Benzene Sulphonate was top of the market due to its ease of manufacture and versitility.

Between 1950 and 1965 more than half of the detergents were based on a propylene tetramer coupled to benzene (PT benzene), but they were later blamed for a rise in eutrophication in lakes and streams because they contained phosphates (from Sodium triphosphate). This problem has not been fully resolved in some cases, in some countries there has been a 'gentlemans agreement' to reduce the use of phosphates but in countries where it is not a major problem no such action has been taken. The problem was set down to the branched chain formation of PT benzene which resulted in the inability of bacteria to degrade them. Straight-chain alcohols are degradable, so steps were taken to produce alinear alkyl benzenemolecule. To replace the phosphate based portions, in Scandinavian countries they now use NTA (Nitrilo triacetic acid)COMPANY PROFILEKarnataka soaps &Detergents Limited, a successor to the government soap factory, which is one of the premier factories among the Indian soap industries. After World War 1, there was a slump in the sandal wood export to the west. It dropped a blanket of gloom over business &trading in India.
