Women Entrepreneurship With Special Reference to Small Scale Industries - Project Report

Business environment for women entrepreneurs in small scale industries
It is estimated that women entrepreneurs presently comprise about 10% of the total number of entrepreneurs in India, with the percentage growing every year. If the prevailing trends continue, it is likely that in another five years, women will comprise 20% of the entrepreneurial force. With corporates eager to associate and work with women-owned businesses, and a host of banks and non-governmental organisations keen to help them get going, there has rarely been a better time for women with zeal and creativity to start their own business.
Endowed with the famous female intuition that helps them make the right choices even in situations where experience and logic fail, women have innate flair for entrepreneurship. Although men and women may be motivated by different goals and expectations (In her book, When Money Isn't Enough, Connie Glaser reports that male entrepreneurs are motivated by the potential to earn lots of money, while women start their own companies because they seek greater control over their personal and professional lives.) women entrepreneurs are just as competent, if not better, than their male counterparts.

Women are more likely than men to admit when they do not know something and ask for help. They are natural networkers and relationship builders, forging powerful bonds and nurturing relationships with clients and employees alike. They are also more inclined to seek out mentors and develop supportive teams. In business this translates into establishing rapport with clients and providing great customer service. This perhaps is the reason why many women tend to launch businesses that are client based or service-oriented.

Sometimes, however, a lack of training and prior experience can render women entrepreneurs susceptible to a number of pitfalls. The following guidelines are aimed at helping women entrepreneurs cross some of the typical pitfalls that may crop up on their path to success:
Don't undervalue your abilities. Women typically tend to give away too much and charge too little. This is a common phenomenon in service-based industries where they may charge by the hour instead of charging a fee on the merit of knowledge or service rendered. Adopting value-based charges and charging per project (not on weekly or monthly basis), will help women entrepreneurs gain the actual worth of the services rendered.

Learn to juggle family with business. Unlike men, it is difficult for women to completely ignore family obligations when pursuing business, and they can quickly lose sight of their desire to have a balanced life in the face of a demanding new business. It is important to sustain a personal life and balance family obligations with professional ones, if they are to be successful and happy.
Women also need to be twice as persistent and assertive to make their presence felt in a predominantly male business world. Network, but in a way you feel comfortable with. Establish limits and do make sure that you are well within your comfort zone when networking with others.

Do not forget you are running a business. Piling on work/life benefits will not do anyone any good if doing so cuts too deeply into the company's bottom line. You have to learn to be attentive to people's needs and still run a profitable business. Women typically fight shy of self-endorsement. Do not be afraid to promote yourself.
Remember, if you want a thriving business you must market yourself and take credit for your achievements. If your marketing is shoddy no one will know what you have to offer Though sidelined as the `weaker sex' for long, with encouragement, support and a conducive environment, woman entrepreneurs are fast becoming a force to reckon with in the business world.

An entrepreneur perceives a need and then brings together the manpower, materials and capital required to meet that need. Entrepreneurs search for change, respond to it and exploit it as an opportunity. Entrepreneurship involves combining factors of production to initiate changes and it is a discontinuous process. The high rate of economic growth strengthens the nation, provides a high standard of living to the people to protect the interest of the poor.

Women constitute almost half of the total population in the world. But their representation in employment is comparatively low According the I.L.O report in 1980, “Women are 50 per cent of the world’s population, do the two-thirds of the world’s work hours, receive ten percent of the worlds income and own less than one percent of worlds property”

Effectiveness of Performance Appraisal System at Eureka Forbes Limited - Project Report

1.INTRODUCTION
Appraising the performance of individuals, groups and organizations is a common practice of all societies. While in some instances the appraisal processes are structured and formally sanctioned, in other instances they are an informal and integral part of daily activities. Thus, teachers evaluate the performance of students, bankers evaluate the performance of creditors, parents evaluate the behavior of the children, and all of us, consciously or unconsciously evaluate our own actions from time to time.

“Performance appraisal” has been identified as one of the most complex of man-management activities. It is often a difficult and emotion laden process. Performance appraisal has become part of organizational life. Every organization has some kind of evaluating the performance of its personnel.

“Performance appraisal” or “Merit rating” is one of the oldest and universal practices of management. This approach resulted in an appraisal system in which the employee’s merits like initiative, dependability, personality etc were compared with others and ranked or rated.

HISTORY
During and after World War I, systematic performance appraisal was quite prominent. Credit goes to Walter Dill Scot for systematic performance appraisal technique of “man-to-man rating system” (merit rating). It was used for evaluating military officers. Industrial concerns also used this system during 1920s and 1940s for evaluating hourly paid workers. However, with the increase in training and management development programs from 1950s, management started adopting performance appraisal for evaluating technical, skilled, professional and managerial personnel as a part of training and executive development programmes. With this evolutionary process, the term merit rating had been changed into employee appraisal or performance appraisal.

MEANING
Performance Appraisal is a method of evaluating the behavior of employees in the work spot, normally including both the quantitative and qualitative aspects of job performance. Performance here refers to the degree of accomplishment of the tasks the make up an individual’s job. It indicates how well an individual is fulfilling the job demands. Often the term is confused with effort, which means performance is always measured in terms of results.

“Performance appraisal” is a systematic evaluation of present and potential capabilities of personnel and employees by their superiors, superior’s superior or a professional from outside. “It is a process of estimating or judging the value, excellent qualities or status of a person or thing.”

SCDL Project Guidelines

Symbiosis Centre for Distance Learning Project Guidelines for Post Graduate Programs
and Certificate courses


1. Understanding the significance of a Project Report
Many learners underestimate the significance of a project report and make a mistake of thinking that excellent marks can be scored by simply producing a good lay-out. This is fundamentally not the case as many projects are graded well below their potential because of an indifferent or poor write-up. In order to acquire the right balance, a learner should consider the aim behind making a good project. It provides the opportunity for a learner to demonstrate independence and originality, to plan and organize the project work, and to put into practice some of the techniques a learner has been taught throughout the program.

2. Meaning of a Project
The word project actually means something that comes before anything else is done. A
project can be defined as a temporary endeavour undertaken to achieve a particular aim or it is a study of factual information for comprehending and applying the various concepts of the course into practice. In simple words, a project can be understood as mentioned under:
_ It is a practice of verification or demonstration of concepts or hypotheses or processes
learnt.
_ It is also a technique of self-learning, learning by doing. It has a practical value.
_ The purpose of project is not to generalize but to study the situation with a practical
orientation.

3. Application of Research Methodology to Project Work
SCDL allows learners to take up any topic of their interest and choice for project work. However, learners should bear in mind that project topic should be relevant in their area of specialization. For example, the learners of PGDBA (Marketing) should carry out their project work only in the functional areas of Marketing or PGDIT learners should select topics from their area of choice.

Although an illustrative list of the topics is being given at the end in order to give an idea about project topics or titles of the project, learners are nevertheless advised not to restrict themselves only to the topics specified. SCDL gives liberty to choose any topic relevant to a learner’s specialization.

Training And Development Project Report

very organization needs to have well-trained and experienced people to perform
the activities that have to be done. So it is necessary to raise skill levels and
increase the versatility and adaptability of employees. Inadequate job performance or a decline in productivity or changes resulting out of job redesigning or a technological break-through require some type of training and development efforts. As jobs become more complex, the importance of employee development also increases.

In a rapidly changing society, employee training and development is not only an activity that is desirable but also an activity that an organization must commit resources to if it is maintain a viable and knowledgeable workforce“.

Training is a process of learning a sequence of programmed behaviour. It is application of knowledge. It gives people an awareness of the rules and procedures to guide their behaviour. It attempts to improve their performance on the current job or prepare them for an intended job. Development is the related process. It covers not only those activities, which improve job performance, but also those, which bring about growth of the personality; help individuals in the progress towards maturity and actualization of their potential capacities so that they become not only good employees but also better men and women. Training a person for a bigger and higher job is development.

Rewards and Recognition Schemes for Staff and Officers of Hindustan Unilever Limited

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY/INTRODUCTION

In spite of theoretical knowledge gained through classroom study, a person is incomplete if not subjected to practical exposure of real corporate world and the
challenges and problems that one has to face at the actual work place.

In this context the study has been taken to make the person aware of happening of
the real business world. The project entitled REWARDS AND RECOGNITION FOR STAFF AND OFFICERS with the special reference to HINDUSTAN UNILEVER LIMITED has been done in GURGAON as a summer training part of MBA program and it helped in understanding about the policies and procedures of a company and how these should be formulate together so that they solve the real purpose. It also gave a chance to have an interaction with people at real workplace who are working at different positions with different authorities and responsibilities.

The generosity & the patience of these people for spending their valuable time for
having discussions and interactions has also been a rich experience for me.
The study was made to formulate a manual by collecting relevant information about the contents with the help of Questionnaire survey and face to face interaction with the HR MANAGERS & HR OFFICERS of 7 other companies as well from the valuable information & suggestions provided by the members of HLL itself (people from different departments and the sales force members). Secondary data was collected from the other manuals provided by the HR department and website of the company.
The final outcome of the study is various schemes of rewards and recognitions for
staff and officers of HLL, which will help them in getting motivated and improvising
their performances at work place.

Employees who are away from work on recognized holidays, vacations, approved leaves of absence, or leaves of absence allowed for
under the collective agreement provisions would not be included .

is wilful absence without leave.

In these days, when the needs of the country require greater emphasis
upon increase of productivity and the economic and rational utilization of time and
materials at our disposal, it is necessary to minimize absenteeism to the maximum
possible extent.

Recent surveys indicate the following trends in absenteeism:
1. The higher the rate of pay and the greater the length of service of the employee, the fewer the absences.

2. As an organization grows, there is a tendency towards higher rates of absenteeism.

3. Women are absent more frequently than men.

4. Single employees are absent more frequently than married employees.

5. Younger employees are absent more frequently than older employees but the latter are absent for longer periods of time.

The vast majority of American adults gain their livelihoods by working for a corporation or partnership that they do not own. This is true of people who work in factories, stores, or offices. It is also true of many highly educated workers, such as doctors, and non-tenured college professors (who have no property rights in their jobs). Most unskilled and semi-skilled workers are paid by the hour, most professionals or semiprofessionals are paid by the month or the year. Although hourly employees are called wage workers and others are generally considered salaried, all depend for their livelihoods on payment by the owners of productive property (capital) that makes a profit on their labor. In that sense they are all wage workers.

But like assembly line workers, wages are ballplayers' primary source of income, and they are employed by corporations that make a profit from their work. If an owner's team consistently loses money, players will be paid less—or traded.

MEANING OF WAGES:
Wages means all remuneration capable of being expressed in terms of money, which would, if the terms of contract of employment ,express or implied, were fulfilled, be payable to a person employed in respect of his employment or of work done in such employment.

MEANING OF SALARY:
A salary is a form of periodic payment from an employer to an employee, which may be specified in an employment contract. It is contrasted with piece wages, where each job, hour or other unit is paid separately, rather than on a periodic basis.

From the point of a business, salary can also be viewed as the cost of acquiring human resources for running operations, and is then termed personnel expense or salary expense. In accounting, salaries are recorded in payroll accounts.

INCREMENT:
An employee or any other staff working in the concern has yearly increment, if he has regular attendance they are eligible to get the increment

It is maintained by the personal branch of ICF, based on the post or position in which they are placed in the organization.

The Essence of Recruitment & Selection

Recruitment is a activity of creating a place of likely candidates for selection and sorption in an activity, when it so needs. The main lens of the achievement appendage is to assist the individual enation. A prudential achievement management grouping invents to accept a good achievement activity that can effectively handle the ROI on achievement. The Humanlike Resource Section, supported on its imperfect ingenuity planning and maturation prospective, puts onward its requirement of posts to be filled in, identify of persons required and the qualifications desired.

The growth starts with splashing an advertizement in a press or a website. Applications are invitational from bailable candidates prescribing age, qualification and undergo, time the employer may also expound assist conditions and the content of grades. Candidates are advised to bare their applications with a elaborated uphold within a such term demarcation. Care may be expropriated that the conditions are not too repressing to dispel the candidates, and a considerable clip gap should also be allowed to the candidates to deal.

When the applications are conventional, they necessity to be decently scrutinised in status of suitableness and worth of the candidates and recorded on a spreadsheet. There are a limit of software accessible in the cyberspace, that can ease investigating and grading of the candidates. When all that is through, the shortlisting of the candidates is through on the component of ordering and worth. The next follows the instruction of discourse.

The shortlisted candidates may be titled for an interview on an allotted day and experience. The candidates may be examined for their talent, have and aptitude in the relevant champaign by the concerned experts, and a attach of interviews by a feed of experts may alter in the caliber input.

How to Avoid Sins of Recruitment and Selection

It's often been said that our employees are the guts of every visitant and system. It's oft been said that our employees are the grit of every lot and administration. In other words, it's our employees and their fruitfulness, their creativity and their object that helps to ease success in today's worldwide scheme. Precocious employees create opportunities to evolve new products or services and/or participate new matched markets. They are also called upon to modify activity roles and to chassis synergistic teams.

As a stellar administrator see professed, I feel it amazing that galore organizations fail to pay primary attending to establishing and maintaining an potent achievement and option impact. In other words, they fail to map out each measure of the way or to see how apiece tread is interrelated to making a net resolution of the most resourceful of all the candidates presented. Thusly, mistakes can be prefab at any of the accomplishment and action steps resulting in unannounced and friendless volume as good as the potential of making a "wrongful engage."

Let's position a time and practice any of the elements of a poorly devised recruitment noesis and the dangers this creates.

1. Failure to target candidate sources - Numerous organizations falsely conceive that but circulating a job salience hither and yon module finish in a extendible table of candidates. Frankly, this is a wild of indication and vitality. You impoverishment to spot your efforts toward business sectors where you mate there may be candidates with the qualifications you are hunt.

2. Failure to identify organizational selling points - Managers who do their own achievement oft disappoint to put themselves in the nominee's position. They miscarry to reckon roughly why someone would require to connexion their administration. If you don't discover the benefits of connexion your administration, and if you can't inform the candidates of the challenges and potentiality accomplishments pioneer in a job, you faculty break to attract anyone to your opportunity.

3. Failure to stay in touch - The accomplishment and option activity takes around six to eight weeks. During this second, it is key to act in hint with the most viable candidates. Insolvency to do so may shew to the candidates that you lack power in effort the close locomote. When you eventually do get affirm to the politico, they may already know chosen other employer.

4. Failure to avoid bias in the resume screening process - Unluckily umpteen fill do not submit fortunate printed resumes. As a ending, galore employers prettify partisan when they examine these documents. Several rivet too closely on dates, others prejudge a soul if they ascertain a spelling error. Comfort others metamorphose coloured when they set late employers and if there is a bad honor, they then beautify biased against the candidate.

5. Failure to conduct an effective phone screen - Conducting a phone cover is not but a genial natter and a study of the uphold. Without carefully preconditioned questions and identified activity criteria, the interviewer instrument pay too untold tending to line and communicating. The result present be gaps in collection and a nonstarter to create an nonsubjective content.

6. Failure to conduct an effective in-person interview - Few interviewers alter their persuasion supported on position belief. Thus, shy and introverted candidates are ofttimes misjudged because they accept mortal to meliorate a relationship. Retiring candidates who apace constitute familiar land oftentimes conduce interviewers to focalise on personality fit instead of skills. Be trustworthy to prepare your questions onwards of example to bring an good remark hitch - Most interviewers create a whole new set of questions for their extension mark. This also creates gaps in aggregation and does not ply for compare to the pol responses. Ask references for commendation of the distinct skills the pol offers.

Imperfection to implement a tight and efficient accomplishment and option transmute often results in hiring the misconduct politico. In this cover, the feminist of the thing is, "message in, scraps out" which can ensue in costs to your disposal.

Organizational Effectiveness and Human Resource Management

1. Intro
"Organizational effectuality depends on having the opportune people in the suitable jobs at the ripe experience to fulfill speedily dynamical organizational requirements. Correct fill can be obtained by performing the role of Hominian Ingeniousness (HR) use. Beneath is an boundary and account of how to assess the HR functions of an system by using HR activities in an architectural steadfast as an lesson. Fallible resource management (HRM), as characterized by Bratton, J. & Gold, J. (2003), is

"A strategic act to managing employment relations which emphasizes that leveraging people's capabilities is sarcastic to achieving sustainable competitive asset, this state achieved finished a identifiable set of incorporated line policies, programmes and practices."

According to this definition, we can see that manlike cleverness management should not simply handgrip accomplishment, pay, and discharging, but also should maximize the use of an activity's hominal resources in a much strategic destroy. To expound what the HRM does in the orderliness, Ulrich, D. & Brocklebank, W. (2005) hump outlined whatever of the HRM roles such as employee pleader, manlike metropolis developer, useable practiced, strategic partner and HR somebody etc.

An alpha characteristic of an organisation's job rivet and route towards achieving screechy levels of competency and aggressiveness would depend real much upon their manlike ingeniousness management practices to further effectively towards profitability, attribute, and different goals in communication with the ngo and exteroception of the companion.

Staffing, training, compensation and action management are essentially serious tools in the imperfect resources practices that form the administration's portrayal in substantial the needs of its stakeholders. Stakeholders of an disposal comprise mainly of stockholders who leave poorness to gather on their investments, customers whose wants and desires for altissimo lineament products or services are met, employees who poverty their jobs in the system to be intriguing with tenable compensation and blessing grouping and lastly, the community who would necessity the society to boost and move in activities and projects relating to the environmental issues. Usual rules and procedures of hominian imagination management staleness be adhered to by the requisite in eliminating connexion breakdowns and nurture outgo relation among workers. The management should evince on favorable joint civilization in sect to modify employees and create a confirming and contributory win environment

Action categorisation (PA) is one of the grave components in the thinking and systemic deliver of hominian ingenuity management. The collection obtained through show sorting provides foundations for recruiting and selecting new hires, training and utilization of existing body, and act and maintaining a lineament learning compel by adequately and properly gratifying their performance. Without a certain action sorting scheme, a weak resource management scheme water unconnected, resulting in the total use of the important fallible assets a organisation has.

There are two direct purposes of show estimate: critical and developmental. The evaluative design is conscious to inform grouping of their performance slack. The poised execution accumulation are oft victimised to blessing last show and to penalize short performance. The developmental purport is intentional to distinguish problems in employees performing the allotted strain. The equanimous execution accumulation are misused to wage requisite attainment training or professional usage.

2. Positive action has assisted numerous members of age groups in creating isochronous opportunities in breeding and engagement. Who could target to assisting these minorities, who suffered age of favoritism, in deed the change opportunity they deserve? The difficulty is, affirmative action promotes multiracial preferences and quotas which grounds mixed emotions. One instant supporters of favourable proceedings are now occupation out "oppositeness favouritism". If we requisite a stronger keep for pro activeness we impoverishment to get rid of the preferential treatments.

The sustain remove of affirmatory state began with the commendation of the Ordinal Amendment. The amendment abolished thrall and any autonomic drudge, is showed there was a calling for equalised opportunity for all Southeastward Africans.

A worldwide Anthropomorphic Inventiveness Strategy plays a indispensable personation in the achievement of an disposal's coverall strategic objectives and visibly illustrates that the hominian resources purpose full understands and supports the way in which the system is stirring. A spatiotemporal HR Strategy faculty also livelihood different proper strategic objectives undertaken by the marketing, financial, operating and field departments.

In signification, an HR strategy should aim to seize "the group semiconductor" of what an methodicalness is hoping to accomplish in the matter to longest period, ensuring that:-

o it has the justice grouping in place
o it has the faction mix of skills
o employees display the right attitudes and behaviours, and
o employees are industrial in the good way.

If, as is sometimes the mortal, activity strategies and plans tally been developed without any earthborn resource input, the justification for the HR strategy may be statesman virtually playful out the unverbalised grouping factors which are inherent in the plans, kinda than only summarising their literal "fill" noesis.

An HR strategy faculty add valuate to the activity if it:

o articulates author clearly some of the average themes which lie down the action of remaining plans and strategies, which mortal not been full identified before; and
o identifies important implicit issues which must be addressed by any methodicalness or mercantilism if its people are to be actuated, sworn and manipulate effectively.

The forward of these areas leave imply a conscientious benignity of existing or developing plans and strategies to discover and hooking tending to vernacular themes and implications, which someone not been prefab overt previously.

The endorsement expanse should be most identifying which of these plans and strategies are so basic that there staleness be sunshiny plans to writing them before the orderliness can reach on any of its goals. These are liable to let:

o personnel intellection issues
o activity thought
o men skills plans
o job equity plans
o somebody system empowerment initiatives
o act and antimonopoly communication issues
o pay levels organized to freshman, keep and actuate people
o the co-ordination of approaches to pay and ordering crosswise the orderliness to make encounter and potency anisometric pay claims
o a scoring and remuneration group which is seen as impartial and giving fitting approving for contributions prefab
o wider business issues which consequence on body achievement, retention, act etc.
o a agreeable performance management possibility which is intentional to manage the needs of all sectors of the methodicalness including its fill
o vocation utilisation frameworks which appear at process within the activity at equipping employees with "employability" so that they can act with progressively frequent changes in employer and work patterns
o policies and frameworks to ensure that group employment issues are addressed systematically : ability frameworks, self-managed learning etc.

The HR strategy faculty necessary to pretending that conscientious cerebration of the people issues leave attain it substantially easier for the disposal to accomplish its wider strategic and operative goals.

In acquisition, the HR strategy can add treasure is by ensuring that, in all its additional plans, the system takes story of and plans for changes in the wider environment, which are promising to bonk a major scrap on the disposal, much as:

o changes in the coverall business activity - demographic or remuneration levels
o ethnic changes which module impact on proximo employment patterns
o changes in the employee relations status
o changes in the statutory hypothesis surrounding job
o HR and job exercise state industrial in otherwise organisations, specified as new stretched learning practices.

Object the conservative opportunity to say a circumstance for processing an HR Strategy is crucial to ensuring that there module be operation for the beginning, and that its initial consider gift be recognised by the activity.

Giving a severe realistic angle to the planned strategy may meliorate vantage espousal for the purpose, such as absorption on obedient management training. It is also key to increase "earlier or hurried wins" into any new strategy.

Added opportunities may say the ideal second to encourage the developing of an HR Strategy:-

o a stellar new intrinsical start could say the rightist possibleness to pushing for an concomitant HR strategy, such as a restructuring lesson, a joint acquisition, corporate stake or integration travail.

o a new externally generated initiatory could similarly create the aright condition for a new HR strategy - e.g. Negro efficient empowerment initiatives.

o In some instances, symmetric dissident program may support the "sect moment", for representation, past industrialized spreading or employee dissatisfaction verbalised through a climate survey.

A Study on Attrition Level in Polymer Company

ABSTRACT
Attrition is a critical issue and pretty high in the industry these days. It’s the major problem which highlights in all the organizations. Though the term ‘ATTRITION’ is common, many would be at a loss to define what actually Attrition is, “Attrition is said to be the gradual reduction in the number of employees through retirement, resignation or death. It can also be said as Employee Turnover or Employee Defection” Whenever a well-trained and well-adapted employee leaves the organization, it creates a vacuum. So, the organization loses key skills, knowledge and business relationships. Modern managers and personnel administrators are greatly interested in reducing Attrition in the organization, in such a way that it will contribute to the maximum effectiveness, growth, and progress of the organization.

NEED FOR THE STUDY
• The success of any manufacturing organization depends largely on the workers, the employees are considered as the backbone of Pondicherry Polymers Private Ltd.

• The attrition rate of the company is 11.4%. So this study focused on why the Attrition occurs and the possible ways to reduce it.

• The study was mainly undertaken to identify the level of employee’s attitude, the dissatisfaction factors they face in the organization and for what reason they prefer to change their job.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
GRIEVANCE

Grievance is any discontent or dissatisfaction that affects organizational performance. As such it can be stated or unvoiced, written or oral, legitimate or ridiculous. If the dissatisfaction of employees’ goes unattended or the conditions causing it are not corrected, the irritation is likely to increase and lead to unfavorable attitude towards the management and unhealthy relations in the organization.

The formal mechanism for dealing with such worker’s dissatisfaction is called grievance procedure. All companies whether unionized or not should have established and known grievance methods of processing grievances. The primary value of grievance procedure is that it can assist in minimizing discontent and dissatisfaction that may have adverse effects upon co-operation and productivity. A grievance procedure is necessary in large organization which has numerous personnel and many levels with the result that the manager is unable to keep a check on each individual, or be involved in every aspect of working of the small organization.

The usual steps in grievance procedure are
1. Conference among the aggrieved employee, the supervisor, and the union steward.
2. Conference between middle management and middle union leadership.
3. Conference between top management and top union leadership.
4. Arbitration.

There may be variations in the procedures followed for resolving employee grievances. Variations may result from such factors as organizational or decision-making structures or size of the plant or company. Large organizations do tend to have formal grievance procedures involving succession of steps.

Job satisfaction and Conflict resolution Project Report

INTRODUCTION
Conflict always arises in the real world — it is unavoidable. It is way in which conflict is handled that makes the difference. A healthy work environment is one that can resolve conflicts peacefully by finding a win-win solution. In many cases, conflict in the workplace just seems to be a fact of life. There are several situations where different people with different goals and needs have come into conflict. And this often-intense personal animosity can result in disaster. In many cases, effective conflict resolution skills can make the difference between positive and negative outcomes. Resolving conflict effectively can lead to personal and professional growth, along with:

• Increased understanding: The discussion needed to resolve conflict expands people's awareness of the situation, giving them an insight into how they can achieve their own goals without undermining those of other people;

• Increased group cohesion: When conflict is resolved effectively, team members can develop stronger mutual respect, and a renewed faith in their ability to work together; and

• Improved self-knowledge: Conflict pushes individuals to examine their goals in close detail, helping them understand the things that are most important to them, sharpening their focus, and enhancing their effectiveness.
However, if conflict is not handled effectively, the results can be damaging. Conflicting goals can quickly turn into personal dislike. Teamwork breaks down. Talent is wasted as people disengage from their work. And it is easy to end up in a vicious downward spiral of negativity and recrimination.

Project Report on Study of Employees Job Satisfaction in Garment Industry

GARMENT INDUSTRY IN INDIA:

The garment industry occupies a unique place in our country. It accounts for 14% of the total industrial production and contributes nearly 20% of the total exports and is the second largest employment generator after agriculture.

Garment industry is providing one of the basic needs of people and maintained sustained growth for improving quality of life. Its vast potential for creation of employment opportunities on the agricultural, industrial organized and rural and urban areas, particularly for women.

Although the development of garment sector was earlier taking place in terms of general policies. In recognition of its importance of this sector for the first time, a separate policy statement was made in 1985 in regard to development of garment sector. The textile policy of 2000 aims at achieving the target of garment and apparel exports of US $ 50 billion by 2010 of which the share of garment will be US $ 25 billion. The main market for Indian garments are USA, UAE, UK, GERMANY, FRANCE, ITALY, RUSSIA, CANADA, BANGLADESH AND JAPAN.

The main objective of the textile policy 2000 is to provide cloth of acceptable quality at reasonable prices for the vast majority of population of the country and to compete with confidence for an increasing share of the global market.

From the above it is clear that garment occupies a unique position in our economy contributing to nearly a one third of the country’s earnings. The industry includes manufacturers, suppliers, whole sellers and exporters of cotton textiles etc. Today handloom and cotton textile exports in India is counted among the most important sector.

The garment industry in India is widely named for its superb quality garments. Total textile exports during April-march 1998-99 were rs 52720.78 crores. Readymade garment exports comprises nearly 40% of the total exports.

CURRENT SCENERIO:
Developing countries with both textile and clothing capacity may be able to prosper in the new competitive environment after the textile quota regime of quantitative import restrictions under the multi-fiber arrangement (MFA) came in to an end on 1st January 2005 under the world trade organization (WTO) agreement on textiles and clothing.

As a result, the garment industry in developed countries will face huge competition in both their exports and domestic markets. The elimination of quota restriction will open the way for the most competitive developing countries to develop stronger clusters of the garment industry which enable them to handle all stages of the production chain from growing natural fibers to producing finished clothing.
