PREFACE

Fundamental changes are taking place in India particularly during last 10


years. The thrust of the changes have been to make the economy “outward
looking “.this has meant a near complete departure from the policies which
the Govt has been pursuing since independence .Infact the wings of changes
were being observed right through the eighties but liberalization and
outward looking park of this period, which mainly encouraged imports for
domestic consumption was rather ill conceived. It did however; one the
outcome of the policies was that there opened up the debate and in a way
prepared the Govt industry and trade unions for the urgency of undertaking
reforms.
This policy, however, did not address itself to the
problems of industry and industrial relations. Despite this, the contents of
the policy became controversial. In 1991, the economy situation
particularly in the adverse balance of payments reached a level of cries
proportions and the then Govt had to pledge goal to meet its immediate
import requirements. Subsequently, new economic policies (NEP) were
formulated. Some of the imp ones were the devaluation of rupee, intro of
new industrial policy, trade and fiscal reforms leading to casing of import
& export restriction &full convertibility of rupee. These policies have
affected the fundamentals of the growth strategy & the imp attached to
the factors of production i.e. capital & labour which in turn has changed
the entire fabric of labour relations in industry.

We have just entered into the new millennium, which


is likely to bring its own share of new opportunity, new circumstances &
new challenges, although there are multitude of changes, some of the imp
ones that the are prepared to face are –Build-up of resource, environment,
research development,, quality assurance, rapidly changing business world,
product development, human resource management & public relations.
Keeping all the points in mind the HINDUSTAN
ZINC LIMITED is taking steps by adopting the work life balance
survey to overcome the shortages and dissatisfaction level of the
employees to achieve the goals of the company for becoming a
successful industry. I have tried my level best to study the work level of
the employees in HZL.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
HINDUSTAN ZINC LIMITED was established from
the erstwhile metal Corporation of India (MIC) on 10th January 1966
as public sector undertaking. In April 2002, the government of India
disinvested its majority stake in HZL, and it became a part of fast
growing Sterlite group. The existing plant at Chanderiya was
established in year 1989.
This plant obtains raw materials from mines at Zawar
mines, Rampura Agucha mines and Dariba mines. Hindustan zinc ltd.
Operates smelters based on pyrometallurgical and hydrometallurgical
(Chanderiya lead zinc smelter, Debari and Vizag zinc smelters)
process routes. Now HZL is associated with brand group Vedanta.
Vedanta is India’s only integrated zinc producer. The zinc business of
Vedanta is managed with in Hindustan zinc limited.

STUDY OF PRESENT PROCEDURE RELATED TO


THE EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION in CLZS and to know how much
they are satisfied with the company is the main objective of this
project. The responses of employees were collected through series of
questionnaires. I have used structured questionnaire for the analysis of
the same.

A systematic approach is essential for any project work.


Each and every step must be planned in such a manner that it leads to
next step. The scope of the study was restricted to the organization.
All the employees were taken for taken into account for the study. A
sampling was done on random basis and sample size was 450
employees. There are some limitations to this process which might be
having some kind of effect over the conclusions derived from the
study.

CLZS (CHANDARIA LEAD ZINC SMELTER)
HZL (HINDUSTAN ZINC LIMITED)

The Chanderiya Lead Zinc Smelter is one of the modern smelting units
situated in the north of Chittorgarh. The plant is in PUTHOLI, 12km. from
CHITTORGARH.
The production & process of HZL is distributed in five plants these
plants are following

TIME OFFICE

OFFICE PROCEDURE

Function: 5.1.0 PAY ROLL:-

For the preparation of the salary and wages, we need the data of

5.1.1 ATTENDANCE:

Attendance is recorded in muster rolls. Every employ at the time of


reporting for duty punches his card in the punching machine to record
his incoming time. In case of workman out punching is also required
to record the time of leaving the plant. The time so recorded in the

26
punching machine is captured in the machine in the PC installed in the
Time Office.

After punching the card at the time of reporting for duty, the employ
reports duty in his department. The department sends the attendance
of all the employees reporting in the shift in the prescribed format.
The attendance so received is cross checked with the punching and in
the case of discrepancy the matter is reported for clarification.

The average number of workers daily employed should be calculated


by dividing the aggregate number of attendance on working days (i.e.
man-days worked) by the number of working days in the year. In
reckoning attendance, attendance by temporary as well as permanent
employees should be counted and all employees should be included
whether they are employed directly or by contractors. Attendance on
separate shifts (nights and day shifts), should be counted separately.
Days on which the factory was closed for whatever cause and days on
which manufacturing processes were not carried on should be treated
as working days. Partial attendance for less than half a shift or more
such a day should be treated as full attendance.

On the basis of the attendance so received the attendance is marked in


the muster roll.

WORK LIFE BALANCE

INTRODUCTION
Work life balance is a person’s control over the condition in
their workplace. It is accomplished when an individual feels dually
satisfied about their personal life & their paid occupation.
It mutually benefits the individual, business and society when a
Person’s personal life is balanced with his or her own job.

“Work to live. Don’t live to work”

It’s important to balance your work and home life. The right to ask
for flexible working aims to help employers and workers agree on work
patterns that suit everyone find out what flexible working is and how to
apply for it. Work-life balance has become one of the top items on the

39
agenda of many large organizations - and a top priority for workers
everywhere.

DEFINITION
Work life –balance is about people having a measure of control
over when, where and how they work. It is achieved when an individual’s
right to a fulfilled life inside and outside paid work is accepted and
respected as the norm, to the mutual benefit of the individual, business
and society.

The best way of approaching Quality of life measurement is to


measure the extent to which “people happiness requirement are met.”
without which no member of the human race can be happy.

NEED AND IMPORTANCE OF WORK LIFE


BALANCE

It helps to:--

• Diagnosis issue and over all organizational climate.

4. Community social infrastructure
5. Human capital measure
6. communication
7. Stress measure
8. Safety

Work life balance in CLZS: ---
According to CLZS the work life balance survey is done
once in every year and they try to know whether their employees are
satisfied with company, work, salary, etc. they also try to know the problems
of their employees and try to solve them as soon as possible.
I have visited the Pyro and Ausmelt Plant and have surveyed
for HOD’s (Ausmerlt, civil office, and store dett. lab and pyro office.) etc.
The data has been put together, compiled up, analyzed and I have arrived to
a conclusion which has been discussed below.

In the whole process I have received full support from all


teams & co-operation for obtaining better results. I acquired good
knowledge about the level of satisfaction of employees in company
The feedback received from employees mainly stressed on
the point that they will be further motivated if they are provided with basic
amenities & increased level of quality of work life. They feel that their work
life will further be upgraded if they get proper canteen facilities, drinking
facilities, wash houses etc.

BENEFITS OF WORK LIFE BALANCE

IN ORGANIZATION:-
1. Measured increases in individual’s production accountability &
commitment.
2. Better teamwork & communication.
3. Improved morale.
4. Less negative organizational stress.
5. Increase productivity
6. Reduced overtime cost.

5. Reduced absenteeism.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Research methodology is a way to systematically solve the research


problem. It may be understood as science of studying how research is done
scientifically.

TYPES OF RESEARCH:-
Descriptive research is also called Statistical Research. The main goal of
this type of research is to describe the data and characteristics about what is
being studied. The idea behind this type of research is to study frequencies,
averages, and other statistical calculations. Although this research is highly
accurate, it does not gather the causes behind a situation.

42
Exploratory research is a type of research conducted because a problem
has not been clearly defined. Exploratory research helps determine the best
research design, data collection method and selection of subjects. Given its
fundamental nature, exploratory research often concludes that a perceived
problem does not actually exist.

Exploratory research often relies on secondary research such as reviewing


available literature and/or data, or qualitative approaches such as informal
discussions with consumers, employees, management or competitors, and
more formal approaches through in-depth interviews, focus groups,
projective methods, case studies or pilot studies.

Observational research techniques solely involve the researcher or


researchers making observations. There are many positive aspects of the
observational research approach. Namely, observations are usually flexible
and do not necessarily need to be structured around a hypothesis (remember
a hypothesis is a statement about what you expect to observe).

A wide ranging set of research techniques aimed at observing consumers


interacting naturally with their surroundings including products and services
in use. A key advantage of observation research is that often the respondant
or consumer is unaware that they are being observed, allowing thir
behaviour to be observed naturally

Types of Observations:
Direct (Reactive) Observation
In direct observations, people know that you are watching them. The only
danger is that they are reacting to you. As stated earlier, there is a concern
that individuals will change their actions rather than showing you what
they're REALLY like. This is not necessarily bad, however.

Unobtrusive Observation:
Unobtrusive measures involves any method for studying behavior where
individuals do NOT know they are being observed (don't you hate to think
that this could have happened to you!). Here, there is not the concern that the
observer may change the subject's behavior. When conducting unobtrusive
observations, issues of validity need to be considered. Numerous
observations of a representative sample need to take place in order to

43
generalize the findings. This is especially difficult when looking at a
particular group. Many groups posses unique characteristics which make
them interesting studies. Hence, often such findings are not strong in
external validity. Also, replication is difficult when using non-conventional
measures (non-conventional meaning unobtrusive observation).
Observations of a very specific behaviors are difficult to replicate in studies
especially if the researcher is a group participant (we'll talk more about this
later). The main problem with unobtrusive measures, however, is ethical.
Issues involving informed consent and invasion of privacy are paramount
here. An institutional review board may frown upon your study if it is not
really necessary for you not to inform your subjects.

RESEARCH DESIGN: ---

A research design is the arrangement of conditions for collection and


analysis of data in a manner that aims to combine relevance to research
purpose with economy in procedure .In fact research design is the
conceptual structure with in research constitutes the blue print for the
collection, measurement and analysis of data.
The research design which I used was though convince basis. It
was non-probability technique.

DATA SOURCES:
The source from where data can be acquired is known as data source. Other
researchers did data collection with a review of previous research .In this
there are basically two method of collection of data.

 Primary data collection.


 Secondary data collection.
Primary data:-

The primary data are theses which are co elected a fresh and for
the first time and thus happen to be in original in character.

44
In this research project primary data is the response from
employees of HZL.

Secondary data: ---

Published data are the secondary data. I took some information


by the book published in HZL

Data instrument: ---

“A questionnaire consists of the number of question printed or typed in a


definite order on a form or set of form”

I have a structured questionnaire for analysis. Structured questionnaire is


which there is definite concrete through questionnaire .in this I took 22
questions.

TYPE OF OUESTIONS: ----

Close ended question is a question in which the respondent is given a


limited number of alternative responses from which he is to select the one
that most closely matches his opinion.

Open-ended (free answer) question is a question which require the


respondent to answer it in his own words & which does not bind the
respondent to select an answer amongst a set of alternatives.

Sample procedure:-
Random sampling is the sampling procedure in which the researcher’s
randomly selected there sample.

Sample size here I look the sample on random basis and the sample size
was taken of450 employees.

45
INTERPRETATION OF DATA

The total numbers of samples taken were 72 and the sample consists of all
employees & employees’ wife. The above 72 samples were divided into
2below mentioned categories:-

1. Employees. (Of service in HZL)


2. Employees’ wife.

23 questions have been analyzed and the detail analysis of each question is
given below.
Copy of the questionnaire is attached in
Annexure A: Employees
Annexure B: Spouses

Tools used to analyze the collected data:-


The analysis was both theoretical and statiscal, graphical
representations were also considered.
The graphical presentation is used with “pie chart” to analyze the
data.
Following steps are used in survey:-

1. At first we prepared the questionnaire, the questions incorporated were


framed on the basis of the conditions, basic requirements and rules of
the company etc.

3. Then we went to each and every Unit Head, SBU Head, Deptt. Head,
and Functional Head and interviewed them.

4. In the same way I interviewed all the wives of these HOD’s..

5. Then we analyzed and interpreted the data and prepared the chart
format for the found result.

6. Then the whole result was handed over to the management for further
actions to be taken.

46
In this way we completed the whole survey and came to know the
level of balance between work and life at work place as well as in
their family.

47

The objectives of research are following.

1. The study of the satisfaction level of employee HZL.

Conclusion

The over all outcome that can be drawn from the employees interview is that
generally they employee are not able to establish a proper setup between
their work & family life. For instance 98% employees firmly believe that
they are running lack of time to be able to enjoy all the recreational facilities
available in the colony but there are some employees who are able to deal
properly with the time management & are spending almost 3-4 hours with
their children on a routine basis all we need to do is improve the efficiency
of the individuals during the working hour so that one shall not have to stay
back.
One more point observed that today’s world is more on a track of
materialistic gain, for instance a higher side of ladies gives more value to the
material objects rather to the life of peace, enjoyment, leisure. Although the
wives believe that their husband’s are not able to contribute much of their
time towards the family’s demands but they are managing with it.
The final conclusion had drawn from the graphs shows that the HZL
employees are more or less able to establish a balance between their work
and the family during the course of their work in this organization.

The dissatisfaction raised from some employees may be a reason out of


appraisal time or they have a feeling that their achievements are not given a
proper count and attention.
