PREFACE
To make the student conversant with the practical knowledge and the
industrial atmosphere implant training is must. The training basically aims
at following:-
To be familiar with the industrial environment.
To be aware of what is happening in fast growing professional work.
To visualize study text through practical happenings.
To explore own fields of project.
IFFCO AONLA provided with ample opportunities to pursue above
mentioned goals. I am quite sure that the knowledge that I gain in my
practical training will prove to be very helpful in my future.
Labor welfare work is undertaken by various groups within and outside
an organization to improve the living conditions of workers. The objective
is to make the worker happy, healthy, committed and loyal. Employers
with a progressive outlook have always invested heavy amounts in
enriching the life of workers.
My humble endeavor and motive in presenting the project report is to
present a strategic overview of employee’s welfare at IFFCO which is an
important integral part of Personnel management.
It is hoped that this project will serve as a supportive document to
research workers as efforts has been tried to make this report an

Introduction About
IFFCO
INDIAN FARMERS FERTILIZER COOPERATIVE LIMITED
During mid- sixties, the co-operative sector in India was
responsible for distribution of 70 per cent of fertilizers
consumed in the country. This Sector had adequate infrastructure to
distribute fertilizers but had no production facilities of its own and hence
dependent on public/private Sectors for supplies. To overcome this lacuna
and to bridge the demand supply gap in the country, a new cooperative
society was conceived to specifically cater to the requirements of farmers.
It was a unique venture in which the farmers of the country through their
own co-operative societies created this new institution to safeguard their
interests. The number of co-operative societies associated with IFFCO has
risen from 57 in 1967 to more than 36,000.
Indian Farmers Fertilizer Co-operative Limited (IFFCO) was registered on
November 3, 1967 as a Multi-unit Co-operative Society. On the enactment
of the Multistate Cooperative Societies act 1984 & 2002, the Society is
deemed to be registered as a Multistate Cooperative Society. The Society
is primarily engaged in production and distribution of fertilizers. The
byelaws of the Society provide a broad framework for the activities of
IFFCO as a Cooperative Society.
IFFCO commissioned an ammonia - urea complex at Kalol and the NPK/DAP
plant at Kandla both in the state of Gujarat in 1975. Another ammonia -
urea complex was set up at Phulpur in the state of Uttar Pradesh in 1981.
The ammonia - urea unit at Aonla was commissioned in 1988. The annual
installed capacity of all the plants was 1.62 million tones of Urea and
NPK/DAP equivalent to 309 thousand tone of phosphates.
The distribution of IFFCO's fertilizer is undertaken through over 36,000 co-
operative societies. The entire activities of Distribution, Sales and
Promotion are co-ordinate by Marketing Central Office (MKCO) at New Delhi
assisted by the Marketing offices in the field. In addition, essential agro-
inputs for crop production are made available to the farmers through a
chain of 167 Farmers Service Centre (FSC). IFFCO obsessively nurtures its
11
relations with farmers and undertakes a large number of agricultural
extension activities for their benefit every year.
At IFFCO, the thirst for ever improving the services to farmers and member
co-operatives is insatiable, commitment to quality is insurmountable and
harnessing of mother earths' bounty to drive hunger away from India in an
ecologically sustainable manner is the prime mission. All that IFFCO
cherishes in exchange is an everlasting smile on the face of Indian Farmer
who forms the moving spirit behind this mission.
IFFCO, to day, is a leading player in India's fertilizer industry and is making
substantial contribution to the efforts of Indian Government to increase
food grain production in the country. IFFCO's mission is "to enable Indian
farmers to prosper through timely supply of reliable, high quality
agricultural inputs and services in an environmentally sustainable manner
and to undertake other activities to improve their welfare.
ORGANISATION STRUCTURE OF IFFCO
The organization structure of IFFCO is such as to provide a high
degree of collaboration among the managerial personnel. This helps in
attaining organizational effectiveness. The structure consists of both line
and staff managers but there are a clear demarcation in their authorities
and responsibilities. Though the structure provides unlimited powers to the
managers yet most of the managers believe in benevolent leadership. This
is the main reason behind the new records made by IFFCO.
The Head Office of IFFCO is situated at New Delhi. It has cooperative
staff that plays a link pin role between cooperative office operating units of
Kalol, Kandla, Phulpur, and Aonla units. There are five zones i.e. North

its own Headquarter. The head-quarter of each zone is as follows:
12
Zone Headquarter
North Zone Chandigarh

West Zone Bhopal
North Central Zone Lucknow
South Zone Bangalore
Each head quarter has certain number of neighboring states under it
and the functioning of those states is controlled by that particular head
quarter. Each state has a State Office under each zone. Under each State
Office there are Area Offices and under each Area Office there are Service
Sectors.
The organization structure of IFFCO consists of Board of Directors.
The Govt. of India nominates two members of the board. The members of
the Cooperative Societies nominate rest of the members. A Chairman heads
the Board of Directors. The Chairman is the Functional Head of the
organization since he is an elected member. There is also a Vice Chairman
elected by the members of the Board of Directors.
One of the members of the Board of Directors is the Managing
