following human rights standards. Nondiscrimination: Reebok will
seek business partners that do not discriminate in hiring and

gender, religion, or political or other opinion. Working
hours/overtime : Reebok will seek business partners who do not
require more than 60-hour work weeks on a regularly scheduled
basis, except for appropriately compensated overtime in compliance
with local laws, and we will favour business partners who use 48
hour work weeks as their maximum normal requirement. Forced or
compulsory labour: Reebok will not work with business partners that
use forced or other compulsory labour, including labour that is
required as a means for political coercion or as punishment for
holding or for peacefully expressing political views, in the

Case Study
MexicoLocated directly south of the United States, Mexico covers
an area of 756,000 square miles. It is the third-largest country in
Latin America and the thirteenth-largest in the world. The most
recent estimates place the population at around 107 million, and
this number is increasing at a rate of about 1.4 percent annually.
As a result, today Mexico is one of the youngest countries in the
world. Approximately 55 percent of the population is under the age
of 20, while a mere 4 percent is 65 years of age or older. Today,
even though the economy is uncertain as in the rest of the world
and has political risk, Mexico has made it-self attractive for
foreign investment. Trade agreements with the United States and
Canada (NAFTA), the EU, Japan, and dozens of Latin American
Countries have begun to fully integrate the Mexican economy into
the global trading system. Multinationals in a wide variety of
industries, from computers to electronics and from pharmaceuticals
to manufacturing, have invested billions of dollars in the country.
Telefonica, the giant Spanish telecommunications firm, is putting
together a wireless network across Latin America, and Mexico is one
of the countries that it has targeted for investment. Meanwhile,
manufacturers not only from the United States but also from Asia to
Europe have helped sustain Mexicos booming maquiladora assembly
industry. By the turn of the century over 1.2 million people were
employed in this industry including 600,000 in the two border
states of Baja California and Chihuahua. Thomson SA, the French
consumer electronics firm, has three plants in the border states
that make export TVs and digital decoder boxes. And like a growing
number of MNCs located in Mexico, the firm is now moving
away[3775]-402 -2-
from importing parts and materials from outside and producing
everything within the country. One reason for this move is that
under the terms of the North American Free Trade Agreement only
parts and materials originating in one of the three NAFTA trading
partners are now allowed to enter the processing zones duty-free.
Anything originating outside these three countries is subject to
tariffs of as much as 25 percent. So the French MNC Thomson is
building a picture-tube factory in Baja California so that it will
no longer have to import dutiable tubes from Italy. In many cases,
imported items from the European Union-however, are allowed to
enter duty-free because in 1999 Mexico signed a free-trade
agreement with the EU. As a result, a host of firms, including
Philips Electronics and Siemens, poured large amounts of investment
into the country. At the same time Mexico also has begun
negotiating another freetrade pact with the four Nordic countries,
raising the likelihood that firms such as Nokia, Ericsson, and
Saab-Scania will also invest heavily in the country. While many
European MNCs are now investing in Mexico, the United States still
remains the largest investor. Over 60 percent of all outside
investment is by U.S. firms. Asian companies, in particular
Japanese MNCs, also have large holdings in the country, although
these firms have been scaling back in recent years because of the
import duties and the fact that Mexican labor costs are beginning
to rise, thus making it more cost - effective to produce some types
of goods in Asia and export them to North America. The largest
investments in Mexico are in the industrial sector (around 60
percent of the total) and services (around 30 percent). One of the
major benefits of locating in Mexico is the highly skilled labor
force that can be hired at fairly low wages when compared with
those paid elsewhere, especially in the United States.
Additionally, manufacturing firms that have located there report
high productivity growth rates and quality performance. A study by
the Massachusetts Institute of Technology on auto assembly plants
in Canada, the United States, and Mexico reported that Mexican
plants performed well. Another by J.D. Power and Associates noted
that Ford Motors Hermisillo plant was the best in all of North
America. Computer and electronic firms are also finding Mexico to
be an excellent choice for new expansion plants.

Explain your answer. Why might MNCs be interested in studying the
organizational culture in Mexican firms before deciding whether to
locate there? Explain your logic.

Specialization (2008 Pattern) (Sem. - IV)Time : 3 Hours] [Max.
Marks :70 Instructions to the candidates: 1) Q.1 is compulsory. 2)
Attempt any Three questions out of remaining questions.
Q1) a)
Motivating Employees to Care for the Customer : The Case of
Hospitals Hospital patients have enough problems with their illness
not to confront poor service as well. Bernard J Lachner, president
of Evanston (III). Hospital, underscored the problem. Whether the
physician, the house staff or the nurse, the waiter, xray or
emergency room, the admitting clerk is rude; the maid who bumps the
bed while cleaning: the parking-lot attendant who is less than
helpful when the lot is full; the cafeteria that turns away
visitors; the pharmacy that has limited hours for outpatients - all
of this suggests that hospitals operate for their own convenience
and not that of the patient, his family and friends. Hospitals
today are turning to guest-room programs to train and motivate
Physicians, nurses and other employees in hospitality. Radford
(III). Community Hospital is among the latest of several hospitals
to add a further wrinkle-a guaranteed services program. Radford set
up a fund of $10,000 out of which they pay patients who have a
justified complaint ranging from cold food to overlong waits in the
emergency room. The hook is that any money not paid out of the fund
at the end of the year is divided among the hospitals employees.
This plan has added a tremendous incentive for the staff to treat
the patients well. If there are one hundred employees and no
patients have to be paid by the end of the year, each employee gets
a $100 bonus. In the first six months, the hospital had to pay out
only $300 to patients. [15] P.T.O.

achieving better customer satisfaction in Hospital Marketing. 2)

be used as a tool to improve the customer satisfaction? Quote

Q1) Case - 1 HANSA TRACTOMOTIVE LTD. The Hansa tractomotive
Limited at Delhi contracted with Kay Jee Hydraulics Ltd. Bombay for
the supply of two filtering and transfer machines. The following
terms and conditions were agreed upon between the representives:
Price per unit = Rs. 12,500 F.O.R. Bombay Delivery = 10-12 weeks
after receipt of buyers confirmed order. Payment = 60 days after
despatch of material under the New Bill Marketing scheme.
Accordingly, Hansa raised a purchase order and sent two copies of
the same to Kay Jee which the latter acknowledged without any
change. The machines were completed by Kay Jee within the
stipulated delivery period and sent to Hansa but instead of
shipping via Rail, Hansas designated carrier, Kay Jee despatched
the consignment by Express Roadlines by truck. As per terms of
contract, the hundi was raised for the invoiced amount by Kay Jee
which was signed/accepted by Hansa. En-route to Delhi, the truck
collided with an incoming tractor trailer and rolled over an
embankment resulting in total loss of the consignment. When
Malhotra, the buyer with Hansa contacted Naik, the sales manager
with Kay Jee regarding the loss-in-transit, the former was told by
the later, the machines were sold F.O.R. Bombay and the title
passed to Hansa at that time. The responsibility of filing claim
with the carrier, therefore, is certainly not ours (Kay Jees). But
you did not route the consignment by the carrier designated by us
argued Malhotra. Our intention was to save Hansa freight cost and
provide delivery by the faster mode of transport Justified Naik.
P.T.O.
And you had no approval from us stressed Malhotra. The very fact
explained Naik, that you (Hansa) signed the Hundi and accepted the
lorry receipt from our representative implies that you accepted the
change. Signing the hundi does not mean we altered the terms of
delivery. Terms of payment and terms of delivery are two separate
issues pleaded Malhotra. Yes, interrupting said Naik, but they are
related........ (The discussion went on each side trying to
justifying their action without any ultimate result). a) How do you
react to the situation cited above? b) Whose responsibility is to
file claim with the carrier? c) What are the merits and demerits of
the F.O.R. (place of despatch) and F.O.R. (destination) point? [35]
Q2) Case - 2 DECKOR INDIA LIMITED Here is a list of our suppliers
sir. said Marwha while pushing the source register infront of
Mr.R.P.Singh, the newly joined purchase executive. Mr. Marwha, the
purchase officer had been looking after the purchase for quite some
time as the post of purchase manager had not been filled. The
reasons for this were not known in the department. Singh went
through the names and instructed Marwha to call the suppliers one
by one so that he could talk to them. He gave Marwha a week to
arrange meetings @ 3 to 4 suppliers a day. Some of these you can
meet just now, sir! said Marwha. Just now! Yes, Sir! The
owners/proprietors/partners of many firms are also our own
employees. I have only to run around the shops and offices and get
them here. Are you serious? Very much sir. Here are few examples :
Out requirements of autoparts are being met by the supervisor
working in our autoshop. A union leader owns workship and does the
subcontract work for us. Stationery is being supplied by our head
clerk. An accountant owns two four wheelers which are regularly
retained by the company to collect and deliver materials from/to
suppliers plants and transporters godowns. Gaskets and plastic caps
are being supplied by an employee in the grinding section. A
purchase assistant has put up a plating shop in the name of his
brother and invariably jobs are routed to him for surface
treatment. Same way a number of other [3775]-67 -2-
examples can be given. Should I call some of them now?
Interrupting My God! Why sir! what happened? Things seem to be in
more mess than, I imagined. Dont you know, Mr. Marwha that buying
from the employees is against the basic principles of scientific
purchasing? But this has been buying policy all along argued
Marwha. Please leave this register here Mr. Marwha said Singh, and
I shall let you know what is to be done! (Marwha leaves) Singh
studied the register in details and wrote a long confidential memo
to the Managing Director. a) Do you, like the purchase executive,
subscribe to the views that employees should not be the suppliers
of the company? b) Draft a memo to M.D. against the current policy?
c) How can the existing policy be reversed without causing
bitterness? [35] Q3) Case - 3 ARCTIC INDIA LIMITED Mr. Mullick, is
a material manager with Arctic India Limited, a medium sized
engineering firm engaged in the manufacture of domestic appliances.
Over the last few years, Mr. Mullick has developed very intimate
relations with his suppliers. On the day of marriage of his sister,
one of his suppliers presented to him a costly gift, a VCR. The
policy regarding the gifts in the policy manual of the company
reads, Gifts beyond Rs 200 should not be accepted. His plea with
the supplier that cant accept the gift makes the supplier snub him
Is Malti only your sister. She is my sister as well. And I am
giving this gift to my sister. Mr. Mullick is confused. If he does
not accept the gift, the supplier will create a scene. And if he
accepts, there is of course going to be the problem. a) b) c)
Analyse the situation and suggest the best course of action for
Mr.Mullick to follow. Is the policy on gifts properly framed? What
course of action on the part of Mr.Mullick would have prevented
this? [35]
