1- INTRODUCTION1- INTRODUCTION

As a part of the curriculum of my MBA III semester, I undergo my project in PARLE

BISCUIT PRIVATE LIMITED (PBPL). There I was assigned the project title “Designing of

Induction & Orientation for IGL and its significance”. My topic is concerned with the Induction

& Orientation in PBPL and its awareness among employees through research done, which helped

me to check whether Induction & Orientation in PBPL is appropriate or not.

This project work provides me an ample opportunity to judge the company’s Induction &

Orientation of the firm. Through this project we can evaluate the Effectiveness of Induction &

Orientation in an organization.

I analyzed the responses taken through questionnaire filled up by employees. This study

provides me an opportunity to analyze that how important is “RIGHT” Induction & Orientation

for the employees and what impact it have on developing their interest in organization.

Therefore, I have chosen this topic to evaluate that Induction & Orientation is actually

necessary for the organization and that should be redesigned on timely basis for the developing

the interest of new employees and if so then to what extent.

India. The intent was to spread joy and cheer to children and adults alike, all over the

country with its sweets and candies. The company knew that it wouldn’t be an easy task,

but they decided to take the brave step. A small factory was set up in the suburbs of

Mumbai, to manufacture sweets and toffees. A decade later it was upgraded to

manufacture biscuits as well. Since then, the Parle name has grown in all directions, won

international fame and has been sweetening people's lives all over India and abroad.

TRAINING & DEVELOPMENT

Introduction

Human Resource Management is defined as the people who staff and manage organization. It comprises of the functions and principles t hat are applied to retaining, training, developing, and compensating the employees in organization. It is also applicable to non-business organizations, such as education, healthcare, etc Human Resource Management is defined asthe set of activities, programs, and functions that are designed to maximize both organizational as well as employee effectiveness.Scope of HRM without a doubt is vast. All the activities of employee, from the time of his entryinto an organization until he leaves, come under the horizon of HRM.The divisions included in HRM are Recruitment, Payroll, Performance Management, Trainingand Development, Retention, Industrial Relation, etc. Out of all these divisions,one suchimportant division is

Training & DevelopmentThis activity is both focussed upon, and evaluated against, the job that an individual currentlyholds education .This activity focusses upon the jobs that an individual may potentially hold in the future, and isevaluated against those jobs.Training and personal development is an important method for a business to improve the performanceof employees.Training is a process whereby an individual acquiresjob-related skills and knowledge. It is a cost tofirms to pay for the training and also to suffer the loss of working hours whilst an employee is beingtrained.However, the potential gains from employee training are significant. The main benefits of training areimproved productivity and motivation of staff and also better quality products being madesome of the specific reasons as to why a business should train its employees are:

•Introduce new employees to the business (this is known as“induction training see below•Help provide the skills the business needs (in particular making the workforce more flexibleorbeing trained on new higher technology machinery)•Provide employees with better knowledge about the business and the market it operates in•Provide support for jobs that are complex and for which the required skills and knowledge areoften changing (e.g. a firm of lawyers training staff about new legislation)•S uppor t   t he   i n t roduc t ion  o f   new  work i ng  me t hods ,   suc h   a s   a   f i rm   in t roducing  new   l ea n production techniques•Reduce the need for supervision and therefore free up valuable manager timeHelp achieve agood health and safety recordHelp improve quality of a product or service and lower customercomplaints•Increase employee motivation and loyalty to the business

TRAININGTraining is concerned with imparting developing specific skills for a particular purpose.Training is the act of increasing the skills of an employee for doing a particular job.Training is the process of learning a sequence of programmed behavior.In earlier practice, training programme focused more on preparation for improved performance in particular job. Most of the trainees used to be

from operative levels like mechanics, machines operators and other kinds of skilled workers. When the problems of supervision increased, the steps were taken to train supervisors for better supervision.

FEATUES OF TRAINING

• Training objectives are tied to organization’s business objectives.• Training is tailored to trainee needs and learning styles.• Training structure allows employees to learn at their own pace.• Trainees are provided regular, ongoing feedback concerning their progress while in the

training programme.

Induction trainingInduction training is important as it enables a new recruit to become productive as quickly as possible.It can avoid costly mistakes by recruits not knowing the procedures or techniques of their new jobs.The length of induction training will vary from job to job and will depend on the complexity of the job,the size of the business and the level or position of the job within the business.The following areas may be included in induction training:•Learning about the duties of the job•Meeting new colleagues•Seeing the layout the premises•Learning the values and aims of the business•Learning about the internal workings and policies of the business.

On-the-job training On the job training occurs when workers pick up skills whilst working along side experienced workers at their place of work. For example this could be the actual assembly line or offices where the employee works.New workers may simply “shadow” or observe fellow employees to begin with and are often given instruction manuals or interactive training programmes to work through.

Off-the-job trainingThis occurs when workers are taken away from their place of workto be trained. This may take placeat training agency or local college, although many larger firms also have their own training centres.Training can take the form of lectures or self-study and can be used to develop more general skills and knowledge that can be used in a variety of situations, e.g. management skills programme.

Methods of trainingHuman Resource Management is concerned with the planning, acquisition, training & developing human beings for getting the desired objectives & goals set by the organization. The employees have to be transformed according to the organizations' & global needs. This is done through an organized activity called Training.

 Training is a process of learning a sequence of programmed behavior. It is the application of knowledge & gives people an awareness of rules & procedures to guide their behavior. It helps in bringing about positive change in the knowledge, skills & attitudes of employees. Thus, training is a process that tries to improve skills or add to the existing level of knowledge so that the employee is better equipped to do his present job or to mould him to be fit for a higher job involving higher responsibilities. It bridges the gap between what the employee has & what the job demands. Since training involves time, effort & money by an organization, so an organization should to be very careful while designing a training program. The objectives & need for training should be clearly identified & the method or type of training should be chosen according to the needs & objectives established. Once this is done accurately, an organization should take a feedback on the training program from the trainees in the form of a structured questionnaire so as to know whether the amount & time invested on training has turned in to an investment or it was a total expenditure for an organization. Training is a continuous or never ending process. Even the existing employees need to be trained to refresh them & enable them to keep up with the new methods & techniques of work. This type of training is known as Refresher Training & the training given to new employees is known as Induction Training. This is basically given to new employees to help them get acquainted with the work environment & fellow colleagues. It is a very short informative training just after recruitment to introduce or orient the employee with the organization's rules, procedures & policies. Training plays a significant role in human resource development. Human resources are the lifeblood of any organization. Only through trained & efficient employees, can an organization achieve its objectives.

* To impart to the new entrants the basic knowledge & skills they need for an intelligent performance of definite tasks. * To prepare employees for more responsible positions. * To bring about change in attitudes of employees in all directions. * To reduce supervision time, reduce wastage & produce quality products. * To reduce defects & minimize accident rate.  rules, procedures or methods. This method is useful, where the information is to be shared among a large number of trainees. The cost per trainee is low in this method.Films: -It can provide information & explicitly demonstrate skills that are not easily presented by other techniques. Motion pictures are often used in conjunction with Conference, discussions to clarify & amplify those points that the film emphasized.

Simulation Exercise: -Any training activity that explicitly places the trainee in an artificial environment that closely mirrors actual working conditions can be considered a Simulation. Simulation activities include case experiences, experiential exercises, vestibule training, management games & role-play.

Cases: -It present an in depth description of a particular problem an employee might encounter on the job. The employee attempts to find and analyze the problem, evaluate alternative courses of action & decide what course of action would be most satisfactory.

Experiential Exercises: -It has usually short, structured learning experiences where individuals learn by doing. For instance, rather than talking about inter-personal conflicts & how to deal with them, an experiential exercise could be used to create a conflict situation where employees have to experience a conflict personally & work out its solutions.

Vestibule Training: - Employees learn their jobs on the equipment they will be using, but the training is conducted away from the actual work floor. While expensive, Vestibule training allows employees to get a full feel for doing task without real world pressures. Additionally, it minimizes the problem of transferring learning to the job.

Role Play: -Its just like acting out a given role as in a stage play. In this method of training, the trainees are required to enact defined roles on the basis of oral or written description of a particular situation.

Measuring of training:-Training is a critical component in any organization's strategy, but organizations don't always evaluate the business impact of a training program.Given the large expenditures for training in many organizations, it is important to develop business intelligence tools that will help companies improve the measurement of training effectiveness. These tools need to provide a methodology to measure, evaluate,and   con t i nuous l y   improve   t r a i n ing ,   a s  we l l   a s   t he  o rgan iz a t i ona l   and   t ec hn ica l infrastructure (systems) to implement the methodology. Cross-functional an dreporting and learning analytics provide important connections between the measures of learning effectiveness offered by a learning management system (LMS)and the larger enterprise metrics that indicate whether learning is transferred and positively affects business results.

Training Effectiveness & its SignificanceIn India, training as an activity has been going on as a distinct field with its own roles, structures and budgets, but it is still young. This field is, however; expanding fast but controversies seem to envelopany attempts to find benefits commensurate with the escalating costs of training. Training has made remarkable contributions to the improvement of all kinds. Training is essential; but doubts arise over its contribution in practice. Complaints are growing over its ineffectiveness and waste. The training apparatus  and costs have multiplied but Unhappiness persists and is growing at the working level where the benefits of training should show up most clearly. This disillusionment shows in many ways -r e luc t ance   t o   se nd   the  mos t   t a l en t e d  work fo rc e   fo r   t r a i n ing ,   i nade qua te   u se  o f   pe r s onne l   a f t e r training, etc. With disillusionment mounting in the midst of expansion, training has entered a dangerous phase in its development. Training is neither a panacea for all ills nor is it a waste of time. What is required is an insight into what training can or cannot do, and skill in designing and executing training successfully and cost-effectively. At the present time, all the organizations give more trust on commercializing their activities. All the firms, in order to continue to exist in the competitive global market and to be effectual, should espouse the most modern technology, i.e., mechanization, computerization

and automation. Technical know-how alone, however, does not assure success unless it is sustained by workforce possess in g in dispensable expertise. Hence, organizations should train the employees to enrich them in the areas of changing technical skills and knowledge from time to time.

Training process-• Determine the mission of the organization• Job description• Training needs assessments• Decide most important objective and priorities• Evaluate the curriculum• Evaluate the result of training

The Input-Process-Output Model for an Effective Training:- Input•Training need analysis: survey based on performance gaps in previous year & perform an ceopportunities in the next year.•Periodical request from department heads based on potential appraisal exercises.•Information on implementation of new practices, technological changes, strategic moves, and changes in the environment.•Information on new recruitments.•Up dation of procedures, rules & regulations.•Training policy of the administrationProcess.•Exercise of determining needs & maintenance of training register•Verification of need to prepare training plans•Deciding to conduct onsite programmes, if large number of participants require training.•Deputation of employees for short term training programmes conducted by local training institutes.•Conducting induction training for new recruits.•Monitoring the training conducted by various departments.•Implementation of changes in the prgramme as necessitated by the feedback.

Output•Release of training plan•Issue of orders of deputation for individual programmes•Feedback on effectives: from participants, from departmental heads.

Training starts with a strategy:-It is important that a business provides training that is consistent with the business strategy. The main steps in developing a training strategy are to:- Identify the skills and abilities needed by employees;- Draw up an action plan to show how investment in training and development will

help meet business goals and objectives;- Implement the plan, monitoring progress and training effectiveness.Benefits of training to a business.

The main benefits to a business of a well-trained workforce are:- Better productivity (and, therefore, lower production / operating costs)- Higher quality- More flexibility - training helps employees develop a variety of skills. Multi-skilling is only possible if the workforce is well trained- Less supervision - lower supervision and management costs if employees can get on with their jobs.This might also improve motivation - through greater empowerment- More successful recruitment and employee retention - businesses with a good reputation for training are likely to find it easier to attract good quality staff - and then keep them- He lp i n a ch i ev i ng change - bus i ness e s w i th s t r ong t r a in i ng sy s t e ms and cu l tu r e f i nd i t e a s i e r t o implement change programmes.

Human Resource Development can be formal such as in classroom training, a college course, or an organizational planned change effort. Or, Human Resource Development can be informal as in employee coaching by a manager. Healthy organizations believe in Human Resource Development and cover all of these bases.A definition of HRD is "organized learning activities arranged within an organization in order to improve performance and/or personal growth for the purpose of improving the job, the individual, and/or the organization" (1). HRD includes the areas of training and development, career development, and organization development. This is related to Human Resource Management -- a field which includes HR research and information systems, union/labor relations, employee assistance, compensation/benefits, selection and staffing, performance management systems, HR planning, and organization/job design. (2)."THE TIMES THEY ARE A-CHANG'IN." Are they ever! And our organizations and jobs will never be the same. Changes are based on the global economy, on changing technology, on our changing work force, on cultural and demographic changes, and on the changing nature of work itself. The changes are different this time. They are permanent, and will permanently affect the way our work and our lives are structured.

We need to learn new skills and develop new abilities, to respond to these changes in our lives, our careers, and our organizations. We can deal with these constructively, using change for our competitive advantage and as opportunities for personal and organizational growth, or we can be overwhelmed by them.

Who is affected by change -- you are! With all the downsizing, outsourcing and team building, responsibility and accountability are being downloaded to individuals. So everyone is now a manager. Everyone will need to acquire and/or increase their skills, knowledge and abilities to perform their jobs (and now, to perform other people's jobs too!)

The goal of HRD is to improve the performance of our organizations by maximizing the efficiency and performance of our people. We are going to develop our knowledge and skills, our actions and standards, our motivation, incentives, attitudes and work environment.

Is training the answer? Yes, partly, sometimes, but certainly not always. In the paper industry, training has been big with capital projects but often is not continued into operational improvement. We have often thought training was what was needed (or not needed). But there are other answers too -- the solution may lie with organization development, career development, or a combination of these or other strategies.

We plan a series of articles to address the broad scope of HRD, to introduce methods to address the development of individuals and organizations. Here's what we will discuss in future issues:

ASSESSMENT OF NEEDS -- the first step. This sounds simple, but we are often in too much of a hurry. We implement a solution, sometimes the correct intervention but not always. But we plan, very carefully and cautiously, before making most other investments in process changes and in capital and operating expenditures. We need to do the same for HRD -- implement the appropriate planning. This needs assessment and planning will lead to several possible ways to improve performance. (Of course, one of these is to do nothing! -- we may decide to focus on other activities with greater impact and greater value.)

PROGRAM DESIGN, DEVELOPMENT & EVALUATION. We need to consider the benefits of any HRD intervention before we just go and do it: What learning will be accomplished? What changes in behavior and performance are expected? Will we get them? And of prime importance -- what is the expected economic cost/benefit of any projected solutions?

TRAINING & DEVELOPMENT -- acquiring knowledge, developing competencies and skills, and adopting behaviors that improve performance in current jobs, including: adult learning theory and applications, instructional systems design, train-the-trainer programs, and instructional strategies and methods.

ORGANIZATION DEVELOPMENT -- the diagnosis and design of systems to assist an organization with planning change. OD activities include: change management, team building, learning organizations, management development, quality of work life, management by objectives, strategic planning, participative management. organizational restructuring, job redesign, job enrichment, centralization vs. decentralization, changes in the organization's reward structure, process consultation, executive development, action research, third party interventions, and more. We will discuss these in future articles.

CAREER DEVELOPMENT -- activities and processes for mutual career planning and management between employees and organizations. Changes in our organizations (including downsizing, restructuring, and outsourcing) are resulting in more

empowerment for employees. The responsibility for our own career development is downloaded to us. (Translation: career ladders are gone; career development is now the

responsibility of the individual.) Later in this series we will explore strategies and tactics to survive and prosper in this new workplace environment.

ORGANIZATION RESEARCH & PROGRAM EVALUATION -- an exploration of methods to evaluate, justify, and improve on HRD offerings.

THE HRD PROFESSION(S) AND PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATIONS -- we plan to list and briefly describe the principal HRD organizations, their missions and goals, and their addresses and contacts.

HRD can give you the tools you need to manage and operate your organizations. Everything -- production, management, marketing, sales, research & development, you-name-it -- everything may be more productive IF your people are sufficiently motivated, trained, informed, managed, utilized and empowered. In future articles in this series, we're going to tell you how to do it. Stay tuned.

TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT :-  It is a subsystem of an organization. It ensures that randomness is reduced and learning or behavioural change takes place in structured format. In the field of human resource   management ,training and development is the field concerned with organizational activity aimed at bettering the performance of individuals and groups in organizational settings. It has been known by several names, including employee development,

human resource development, and learning and development.Harrison observes that the name was endlessly debated by the Chartered Institute Personnel and   Development du r ing   i t s   r ev i e w  o f   p ro fe s s i ona l   s t anda rds   i n   1999 /2000 .   "Empl oyee Development" was seen as too evocative of the master-slave relationship between employer and   emp l oyee   fo r   t hos e  who   r e f e r   t o   t he i r   emp l oyees   a s   "pa r tne r s"  o r   " a s soc i a t e s"   t o   be comfortable with. "Human Resource Development" was rejected by academics, who objected tothe idea that people were "resources" an idea that they felt to be demeaning to the individual. Eventually, the CIPD settled upon "Learning and Development", although that was itself not free from problems, "learning" being an over general and ambiguous name. Moreover, the field is still widely known by the other names.Training and development encompasses three main activities: training, education, and deve l opmen t .Ga ra van ,Cos t ine , and He ra ty ,   o f   t he   I r i s h   In s t i t u t e   o f  T ra i n ing   and Development, note that these ideas are often considered to be synonymous. However,to practitioners, they encompass three separate, although interrelated, activities. The "stakeholders" in training and development are categorized into several classes. The sponsors of training and development are senior managers. The clients of training and development are business planners. Line managers are responsible for coaching, resources, and performance. The participants a r e   t hos e  who   ac t ua l l y   unde rgo the processes.The facilitators are Human Resource Management staff. And theProviders are specialists in the field. Each of these groups has its own agenda and motivations, which sometimes conflict with the agendas and motivations of the others. The   con f l i c t s   a r e   t he  be s t   pa r t o f   c a r e e r   cons equence s   a r e   t hos e   t ha t   t ake  p l ac e between employees and their bosses. The number one reason people leave their jobsis conflict with their bosses. And yet, as author, workplace relationship authority, and executive coach, Dr. John Hoover points out, "Tempting as it is, nobody ever enhanced his or her career by making the boss look stupid." Training an employee to get along well with authority and with people who entertain diverse points of view is one of thebes t   gua ran t ee s   o f   l ong - t e rm   suc ces s .Ta l e n t , know ledge , and sk i l l   a lone  won ' t compensate for a sour relationship with a superior, peer, or customer .

This programme has been designed to aid all Human Resource practitioners in measuring the effectiveness of training. Having an evaluation of training effectiveness in place is also one of the dimensions of the People Developer Standard.

Training employees Importance of training:-

Training your employees do have a significant role in modern business era. Not just to equip them with latest tools your company has implemented, there is a lot more to it.

To make the job challenging and interesting9.For self and development.

  RECOMMENDATION Management would remain only an imaginative projection with ideological discrepancy if

certain steps are not taken which are stated as follows:-

The Head of Departments (HOD’s) especially the head of the new employee’s departments should be interacting with the new employees during the induction & orientation in PBPL.

Some write ups/manuals regarding the co.’s rules & regulations, systems and philosophies, employee’s role in the organisation is to be given to each new employee.

Points of pride of the company to be highlighted, (USP).

Once in 5yr. (or so), there should be brief refresher induction programme.

Follow up action on the feedback from the new employees after Induction / orientation programme.

Usage of modern tools/techniques for induction & orientation programme.

SUGESSTIONS

CONCLUSION

In this survey I have collected the suggestion and problems from different departments of The target Employee of Parle Biscuit Private Limited(PBPL).

In Human Resource cell of Parle Biscuit Private Limited (PBPL) “Induction & Orientation” is not conducted exhaustively.

The heads of every department (HOD’s) of Parle Biscuit Private Limited (PBPL) do not take dynamic involvement except HR department while Induction & Orientation to new employees.

The deficiency is caused by a lack of support of every department rather than a lack of technique to result perfection.

Every employee of PBPL is in favor of designing a new induction & orientation programme for freshers.

PBPL lacks in modern tools & technique while conducting Induction & Orientation for new employees.

There is a gap between Induction & Orientation and Awareness of employee.

There are majority of employees who are not satisfied with the Induction & Orientation conducted in PBPL.

Using questionnaire as a source the study has come to a conclusion that employees of PBPL are not satisfied with the Induction & Orientation programme conducted by the company. Therefore they want HR department to design a new induction & orientation programme so to boost morale and develop the interest of a new employee towards organisation. The Induction & Orientation conducted in PBPL are done just for the formality sake i.e. on an average basis as per surveyed and thus taking into account the valuable suggestions I had brought the project to successful completion.

As this achievement has fallen in Parle Biscuit Private Limited bag the co-operative nature of the employees acted as a well-wisher for the project. Numbers of suggestions for designing new induction & orientation programme for IGL were received.
