CHAPTER – I

INTRODUCTION

Introduction says, “Stress” has become so familiar word that experts from

medical, HRD, management fields and yoga experts give much stress on defining

stress and managing stress. Indeed, stress has been woven into the fabric of life

today. It starts from birth and if ignored ends only with death. No person in this

universe is free from some amount of stress. In fact, anything hat makes us tense,

angry or frustrated is stress. Dr. Hans Seyle, the noted experts on the stress says,

“Stress, like relatively, is a scientific concept, which has suffered from the mixed

blessing of being too little understood”.

Stress is common in all strata of society and all age groups though the

intensity, magnitude and visual symptoms differ from individual. A certain

amount of stress is, however, desirable individual; to give required stimulation to

overcome obstacles that may prevent a person in achieving his ultimate goal. At

times, we even invite mild stress to avoid boredom and development some

motivation for a given activity. Dr. G. Wilkinson in his paper in the British

Medical Association Publication has defined stress through the following equation:

Levels of stress = Environmental stressor + stress Response + Significance of

Event



Chapter -II

PROFILE OF THE COMPANY

A public limited company by the promoters, Mr. Padam J .challani chairman

& CEO and Mr. Prakash chand Jain, vice chairman, who have been in the

business in Tamil Nadu for more than two and half decades. SARAVANA

GLOBAL ENERGY LIMITED (formerly saravana insulators Limited) was

established in the year 2003 by acquiring the total assets of Mrs. Seshasayee

industries Limited, a former reputed company, supplying High voltage insulators,

for transmission / distribution lines and railway electrification etc., The promoters

revamped, modernized and expanded and established the entire activities in

P.N.Kuppam, to produce High Alumina Porcelain Insulators required for power

equipments, Power Grid (PGCIL) having 1200 MT per month and the production

operations were of Solid Core, Post Insulators and Bushings for supplying up to

765kY to all Electricity Boards like, TNEB, MSEB, APSEB, MPEB, KPTCIL,

KSEB,

APTRANSCO etc. and others through insulators manufacturers.

THE PRODUCT RANGE COVERS THE FOLLOWING ITEMS.

~ Solid Core Long Rod Insulators up 765KY. Hollow Bushings, SF6 Circuit

Breakers, CTs/CYTs and lightning arrestors. 25KV Solid Core Insulators for

Railway Electrification.



Solid core line post insulators

It is a well known fact that former Seshasayee Industries Limited ( SIL) had

got a high reputation with their consultancy and technical know-how from

German, French& Italian experts for manufacturing various Alumina Porcelain

sophisticated under the guidance of Mrs. Louis Locatelli who was a renowned

European expert in the field.

Mr. Louis Locatelli trained many of the engineers and also established the

high strength Alumina body in India for manufacture of high strength solid core

insulators and high pressure bushings and the core engineers who are now with

Saravana Global Energy Limited in charge of production, testing, specification

etc,. Were all people worked with Mr. Louis Locatelli, Mr.Mario Audi and other

leading ceramic experts and have also undergone Training in European factories

for manufacture of specialty insulators required by the power industry. Besides

putting up a sophisticated Plant with all imported machines and firing kilns, Mr.

Louis Locatelli helped the company at that to have a full fledged Extra High

Voltage and Mechanical testing lab which is also now modernized with updated

instrumentation, calibration of equipments etc.

So that the lab can be used for our own development and testing also for

external testing of electrical products to customers like Electricity Boards,



Railways, PGCIL and others. The Global power Research Institute (GPRI)

(formerly Saravana EHV Lab)has been accredited by National Accreditation Board

for testing and calibration Laboratories(NABL)as per S/ISO17025-requirements

Porcelain and composite Insulators and Hardware.

It may be noted that the high voltage and extra high voltage product range is

at par with leading insulator manufacturers in India and abroad. There are about

850 employees working in this company having requisite education, skill and

experience in the manufacturing of insulators. Lot of interest is being shown by

leading switch gear manufacturers in India and abroad ikeABB, Crompton

Greaves, Areva, Siemens, L & T,BHEL and others for supply of bushings, solid

core Post insulators etc. (have their confidence of the quality level and

specification of the products which are being produced in the factory

with background of the operating people and facilities and infrastructure created by

the Management to supply various products required-by utilities and power

equipments manufacturers).

.:. Steatite



BALL MILL

Ball mill is a machine, which is used to grind or mix the raw material in a

proper composition. It rotates horizontally with a constant speed and it is also gear

system. It takes 6 Hrs for grinding the raw material.

BLUNGER:

It is a tank which is present below the ground surface where scrap is poured

and water is added it. It resemble like a fan like structure which consist of blade. A

fan rotates for several hours to form the slip. The segmentation is settled in the

blunger and only the slip is transferred to the filter press.

FILTER PRESS:

Filter press is a machine which is used to remove the water from the slurry

by applying pressure with help of hydraulic system, and the pressure increased and

the water removed through the nylon cloth due to increased pressure. This

operation goes nearly 3-4 hrs to bring a cake formation.

PUG MILL:

It is a fabrication machine which is used to bring the filter cake into desired

shape with the required dimension. The vacuum condition must be maintained

inside the PUG mill in order

to avoid breakage; air is converted from low pressure to high pressure. The

unloaded cake is rotated to become noodles like structure. Finally we get the

desired shape.



DRIER (PED): PUG ELECTRIC

It is the process in drying section where the PUG gets dried by using electric

supply approximately 500 voltages is applied. Then it is allowed to drying for 40

hrs (approximately) for evaporating moisture content by potential difference

created in it. The time. Taken for the process of drying varies for different shapes

and sizes.

SHAPING:

There are two types of shaping system followed

A. Manual

B. CNC Program

A) Manual

It is used on individual person to can design the PUG with the help of temp

plate.

B) CNC Program

It is systematic process and set to the program after work down the design

on automatically.

THERMIC FLUID HEATER:

After shaping, the PUG has to be taken to drying process and bring to

required moisture content of 0.5% (approximately) in it.

The temperature inside the drier must be increased day to day



FINISHING BOOTH

This section where the surface of the PUG has to be shined.

GLAZING AREA:

A. Dipping

B. Monogram

A.Dipping

Here, The PUG pieces are dipped in the suitable coloring agent (liquid state)

which is stored in large rectangular tray where the surface of the PUG gets

required colour whichever colour wants.

B.Monogram

It is the place where the stickers are pasted on the surface of the PUG.

The stickers giving the information about manufacturing date, company logo and

serial number.

KILN:

It is a systematic process. There are two types of kiln.

Shuttle Kiln

Tunnel Kiln

In SGEL it used on shuttle Kiln. It is used to heat on 3 days the designed

pieces at a very high temperature of above 1230° c to 1250° c. After 2 days

attaining the maximum temperature, the cooling has to be done. At the end of the

cooling, the temperature is maintained at room temperature 35° c to 45° c the time

taken to complete the process be varying for different material.



SORTING:

After Kiln process it will check insulator piece come to correct shape.

CUTTING:

Insulator unwanted top and bottom part can be cut and removed them.

ASSEMBLING:

at the top and bottom part of the insulator.

TESTING:

It has five types of testing

Tensile testing

Bending testing

Hot water temperature testing

Cold water temperature testing

~ Curing chamber

A) Tensile testing

We can know how much length the ceramic material can able to expand.

B) Bending testing

It can withstand how much bending force acting on it.

C) Hot water temperature testing

It can with stand up to what extent of higher temperature.

D) Cold water temperature testing

It can with stand up to what extent oflow temperature.



E) Curing chamber

It is a chamber into which the ceramics placed for particular period of Time with a

continuous spraying of cold water or stream on it on order to check whether any

properties of the materials can change.

PACKING:

After finishing the testing process. Finally the insulator is packed within the

wooden box.

DISPATCH YARD:

CHAPTER – III

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

INTRODUCTION:

The work Stress is derived from the Latin term “Stringers” which means “to draw tight”.

Same define stress as the non. Specific response of the body to any demands made on it. when

the demands on an individual’s exceed his capacity and adjustment resources stress occurs.

MEANING:

Stress is the general term applied to the pressure people feel in life. Stress on individuals

ranges from personal day to day life to their orgal activities. “Stress is a costly business expense

that affects both employee health and company profit”.

DEFINITION:

Hans Selye defines stress as “An adoptive response to the external situation that results

in physical, psychological and/or behavioural deviation for organizational participants.

This stress is a mental, emotional or physical reaction resulting from an individual’s

response to environmental pressure and similar stimuli. It refers to pressures people feel in life.

Hans Selye, the father of stress, believes that stress is the spice of life and absence of stress is

death. Different persons respond to stress full situations in different ways.


STRESS

Nervousness Instability

Emotional Instability

Excessive use of Alchocol or drugs

Feelings of Inability Cope

Unco-operative Attitude

Seeping problem absenteeism

Chronic worry

Inability of Relax

High blood processing

Digestive Problem


SYMPTOMS OF STRESS:



The source of stress come from are called stressors. The stressors, or the so called

antecedents of stress come from both inside our body and mind and outside of ourselves. The

stressors thus fall logically into for categories viz., environmental, organizational, group and

individual stressors. These are summarized in figure that thinking of stressors in various

categories will help us become more aware of stress in our lives. These are now discussed on by

one.

CAUSES OF STRESS:

ENVIRONMENTAL STRESSORS



Environmental factors do affect organization and thus have impact on stress also. The

environmental stressors to which an employee’s responds mainly include things such as fact

technological change, family demands and obligations, economic and financial conditions, race,

caste, class ethnic identity and transfer of late the phenomenal rate of social and technical change

has had its great impact on peoples life style which is carried over into their jobs. To mention

while medical science has increased the life span of the people by eradicating the life –claiming

threats of many dreaded diseases on the one hand, the modern living style caught up in the rush,

mobile, urbanized and crowed has deteriorated the wellness and increased the potential for stress

on the job, on the other.



ORGANISATIONAL STRESSORS

Stressors occur not only outside the organization, but within it also organizational

stressors can be categorized into policies and strategies, structure and design, processors and

working conditions organizational changes to meet challenges are usually accompanied by

stressors.

GROUP STRESS

People are usually members of various formal and informal groups. The department or

section to which are belongs, for example is formal group. Group bears tremendous influence on

individual members behavior. The group therefore can also be a potential source of stress.

The group stressors can be categorized into three types.

i) Lack of group Cohesiveness

Famous Hawthorne studies have made it clear that cohesiveness or “togetherness”

provides. Satisfaction to be employees. Lack of cohesiveness creates conflict which serves a

potential stressors for the employees.

ii) Lack of Social Support

We all as the members of groups look for from co-members in times of both happiness

and sorrow. If we get this social support, we are much better off. If such a support is lacking

for an individual member. The same can also cause stress.



iii) Interpersonal and Inter group Conflict

The incompatibility in term of needs and values between co-workers / colleagues

usually create interpersonal conflict. Likewise, variance in objectives and goals between

groups leads to inter group conflict.

INDIVIDUAL STRESSORS

Apart from the stressors discussed so far (environmental, organizational and group) there

are also individual factors which serve as stress. There are

i) Role of conflict and Ambiguity

Individual employees have multiple roles to play within as well as outside the

organization such as superior, subordinate, colleague, family community and so on, these

roles are a set of expectations that other members have of an employees.

ii) Personality traits

Personality affects behavior. Personality traits vary from individual to individual.

iii) Life and carrier changes

Life’s changes may be slow (getting older) on sudden (the death of a spouse).

Particularly sudden changes have dramatic effect on people. The medical researchers have

verified that more the person experiences sudden changes; the poorer will be his subsequent

health.



The same is true for career or nature of job and responsibility, underemployment

or over employment etc. can be stressing provoking besides certain situations are peculiar to the

Indian workers which add to tension and stress to them.

Experts on stress management are of the view that a lot of stress in Indian case is

due to demands placed on time and finance from family, relations, friend, community leisure

and relationship the we have in our family and social lives.

CONSEQUENCES OF STRESS

1. ON THE INDIVIDUAL

a) Physical: Headache, indigestion, insomnia, heart trouble

b) Mental: Anxiety, irritability, lack of clear thinking, inability to relax,

frustration, helplessness, loneliness, etc.

c) Behaviour: Excessine smoking or drinking, withdrawal from relationships,

speech disturbances.

2. ON THE ORGANIZATION

Low productivity, poor quality, higher costs, increased absenteeism, low job satisfaction,

accident proneness, poor interpersonal communications.



TYPES OF STRESS

Stress can be functional, contributing to glow up, or dysfunctional, contributing to

burnout. The first has been called ‘eustress’ and the second ‘distress’.

EUSTRESS

Eustress is the stress of achievement, triumph, and exhilaration

DISTRESS

Distress is the stress of disappointment, inadequacy, defeat and helplessness.

HOW TO MANAGE STRESS

INDIVIDUAL LEVEL:

a) Exercises: Physical and mental exercises helps to reduce emotional imbalance. Physicians

advise walking and other exervises in the morning, regular eating and sleeping habits and yoga

are very helpful.

b) Know yourself: A study should be made to find our one’s strength and weakness,

opportunities and threats. A periodical analysis of these factors will provide better understanding

of self and the work around us which helps to reduce stress.



c) Forecasting and preparing: Advance thinking and foresight helps a manager to reduce risk

involved in decision making. Proper allocation of resources is also helpful.

d) Organise work and time: We need to separate work from home. Break the routine in the

form of a small vacation or picnic. Share problems with spouse and friends.

e) Develop positive attitude: A positive attitude to both life and work does reduce stress. Make

positive use of stress. This helps to develop and correct perspective and to regain control over

the stress causing strategies. Accept things through which your cannot change.

f) Have Faith: Faith in one’s deity can reduce stress. The reciting of GAYATRI MANTRA or

merely OM/AUM for those who follow this faith can reduce stress. This mantra is said be the

gist of vedic Philosophy.

g) Rational Emotive Therapy (RET) Technique: This is a dynamic action oriented learning

process where individuals are made to recognize the futility or irrationality of their firm beliefs

and viewpoints and develop rational beliefs and viewpoints.



ORGANIZATIONAL LEVEL:

Like an individual, an org can also help manage stress through various low proactive

interventions, some of these

1. Setting clear objectives:

Organization should set clear objectives for its members. This helps minimize roll

ambiguity which usually filters down the Organization in the form of neuoris.

2. Stress Audit

Pestonjoa has suggested stress audit as one of effective productive intervention to combat

stress, according to him, when an organization decides to have a scientific peep into mental &

physical health status of its backbone group (Executives, the exercise is called stress audit)

3. Counselling:

Counseling is yet another proactive strategy to be used by Organization to deal with

stress. Counseling to employees in the matters like career planning to provide them clarity in

their job rolls, helping them in identifying their strengths & Weakness help them better cope with

stress.

4. Spread the message:

Spreading the message about the importance of regular habits of work, leisure, proper

diet, exercise and mental peace among the organizational members helps them better cope with

stress.



5. Fit between person and work:

Research evidence shows that striking a fit between worker and his/her works

environment serve as one the best strategy to manage stress. This congruence can be attained

linking the worker to the job characteristics, far high internal motivation, high quality

performance, high work satisfaction, and low absenteeism and turn over.

6. Clarity in rolls:

It shows that defining individual rolls through roll efficiency helps them reduce their roll

shared stresses. This is so as a result of an individual’s, movement from a reactive. i.e., roll

taking behavior to a proactive i.e. roll-making behavior.

INDIAN METHODS OF MANAGING STRESS

Indian philosolhy consisting of Upanishada, Vedanta, etc. is very helpful in winning

stress. Dr. Sathish Chandra Pandey has given the following Indian model of stress management.

(i) Develop a strong philosophical base of combining different Indian values.

(ii) Create awareness among organization members about these values

(iii) Develop training programmes for executives and other staff members for their

total personality development based on Indian values, so that they can develop

their own strategies for coping with their organizations stressors.

(iv) There must be compulsory course on Indian philosophy in professional

management course.

(v) Popularizing Indian values among organizational members will be helpful in

reducing unnecessary individual and group conflict, power politics and stress in

Indian organization.



(vi) Stress management programmers for employees must be based on sharing

different philosophical values and developing strategies through group learning.

(vii) Organizations must include these training programmers as integral part of their

life. Occasionally, organizational programmers may not be helpful in the

members through such training programmers. It will work as the best preventive

strategy for stress management at organizational level.
