EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The importance of Human Resource Management is being

increasingly realized in industrial and non-industrial

organization both in India and abroad. The realization has

come about because of increasing complexity of tasks if

managers and administrators. In most organizations the

problem of getting the competent and relevant people,

retaining them, keeping up their best to the organization,

are now viewed as the critical problems.

So with this reference the project related to the industrial

visit for the study of the HR Practices has been conducted.

We had visited Parle &Dabur at Pant Nagar and APC at

Udham Singh Nagar. We had concluded data from visits and

tried to summarized in this project from primary research. It

emphasizes on the importance of a clear cut organization

structure and culture to avoid any confusion in order to

achieve maximum results with minimum resources.

The project report is aimed to cover maximum knowledge of

HR Practices followed in organization and how the

performance is evaluated of the employees, what primary

factors are considered, how data is maintained and finally

the evaluation done. Here the HR practices of the companies


5/93

have being explained with their products profiles and

competitors. The practical knowledge has been gained

mainly by observing all the activities taking place in the HR

department. This is a brief study done to enhance

understanding of the subject HR, how it is practically

implemented, why it is necessary , its implications and

benefits.

PREFACE

Human Resource Management is both an academic theoryand a business practice that addresses the techniques of

managing a workforce. The theoretical discipline is based on

the assumption that employees are individuals with varying

goals and needs, and as such should not be thought of as

bonded labour or can be purchased at price. The field takes

a positive view of employees and study of practices followed

by organization to manage this intellectual capital to their

maximum satisfaction, so that they can work to best of their

ability. So, as a MBA student I must know the practical

implication of concepts of Human Resource Management,

IMS has given me this golden opportunity to meet this end,

by means of this Project work.

Project work consists of visit to the company and

collecting the information about the practices being followed

there, as an HR student my aim was to get a deep insight


6/93

into HR functioning and to know about the vital role that HR

department plays in functioning of other departments.

I have done my Project from PARLE, Dabur & APC.,

Rudrapur, as a requirement for the degree of MBA(HR&IR). I

hope to provide relevant information about the various HR

functions of the Organization in a nutshell by means of this

report. It had been a constant endeavor to remain

informative and to the point.

HISTORY

A long time ago, when the British ruled India, a small

factory was set up in the suburbs of Mumbai city, to

manufacture sweets and toffees. The year was 1929 and the

market was dominated by famous international brands that

were imported freely. Despite the odds and unequal

competition, this company called Parle Products, survived


8/93

and succeeded, by adhering to high quality and improvising

from time to time.

A decade later, in 1939, Parle Products began

manufacturing biscuits, in addition to sweets and toffees.

Having already established a reputation for quality, the Parle

brand name grew in strength with this diversification. Parle

Glucose and Parle Monaco were the first brands of biscuits to

be introduced, which later went on to become leading

names for great taste and quality.Apart from being the world's largest selling biscuit,

Parle - G is winner of 8 Gold and 11 Silver awards at the

Mond Selection Awards the global standard for quality in

Food category.

Secret of success

In keeping with our philosophy, we believe in adding value

and spreading the goodness around to improve the quality

and safety of human life.

Our success today can be attributed to our members of the

family

and their dedication that has resulted into success of the

Parle brand name in the market.

Market share

Over the years, Parle has grown to become a multi million

US $ company.

Parle enjoys the 40% share of the total biscuit market &

THE STRENGTH OF THE PARLE BRAND

Over the years, Parle has grown to become a multi-million

US Dollar company. Many of the Parle products - biscuits or

confectionaries, are market leaders in their category and

have won acclaim at the Monde Selection, since 1971.

Today, Parle enjoys a 40% share of the total biscuit market

and a 15% share of the total confectionary market, in India.

The Parle Biscuit brands, such as, Parle-G, Monaco and

Krackjack and confectionery brands, such as, Melody,

Poppins, Mangobite and Kismi, enjoy a strong imagery and

appeal amongst consumers.

Be it a big city or a remote village of India, the Parle name

symbolizes quality, health and great taste! And yet, we know

that this reputation has been built, by constantly innovating


10/93

and catering to new tastes. This can be seen by the success

of new brands, such as, Hide & Seek, or the single twist

wrapping of Mango bite.

In this way, by concentrating on consumer tastes and

preferences and emphasizing Research & Development, the

Parle brand grows from strength to strength.

The Quality Commitment

Parle Products has one factory at Mumbai that manufacturesbiscuits & confectioneries while another factory at

Bahadurgarh, in Haryana manufactures biscuits. Apart from

this, Parle has manufacturing facilities at Neemrana, in

Rajasthan and at Bangalore in Karnataka. The factories at

Bahadurgarh and Neemrana are the largest such

manufacturing facilities in India. Parle Products also has 14

manufacturing units for biscuits & 5 manufacturing units for

confectioneries, on contract.

All these factories are located at strategic locations, so as to

ensure a constant output & easy distribution. Each factory

has state-of-the-art machinery with automatic printing &

packaging facilities.

All Parle products are manufactured under the most hygienic

conditions. Great care is exercised in the selection & quality

control of raw materials, packaging materials & rigid quality

standards are ensured at every stage of the manufacturing


11/93

process. Every batch of biscuits & confectioneries are

thoroughly checked by expert staff, using the most modern

equipment.

The Marketing Strength

Parle brand have found their way into the hearts and homes

of people all over India & abroad.

Parle has more than 3000 wholesalers, catering to 4, 25,000retail outlets.

There are 31 depots and C&F agents supplying goods to the

nation wide distribution network

The extensive distribution network, built over the years, is a

major strength for Parle Products. Parle biscuits & sweets

are available to consumers, even in the most remote places

and in the smallest of villages with a population of just 500.

Parle has nearly 1,500 wholesalers, catering to 4, 25,000

retail outlets directly or indirectly. A two hundred strong

dedicated field force services these wholesalers & retailers.

Additionally, there are 31 depots and C&F agents supplying

goods to the wide distribution network.

The Parle marketing philosophy emphasizes catering to the

masses. We constantly endeavor at designing products that

provide nutrition & fun to the common man. Most Parle


12/93

offerings are in the low & mid-range price segments. This is

based on our cultivated understanding of the Indian

consumer psyche. The value-for-money positioning helps

generate large sales volumes for the products.

PARLE G - THE EVOLUTION!!!

Parle-G has been a strong household name across

India. The great taste, high nutrition, and the international

quality, makes Parle-G a winner. No wonder, it's the

undisputed leader in the biscuit category for decades. Parle-

G is consumed by people of all ages, from the rich to the

poor, living in cities & in villages. While some have it for

breakfast, for others it is a complete wholesome meal. For

some it's the best accompaniment for chai, while for someit's a way of getting charged whenever they are low on

energy. Because of this, Parle-G is the world's largest selling

brand of biscuits.

Launched in the year 1939, it was one of the first

brands of Parle Products. It was called Parle Glucose Biscuits

mainly to cue that it was a glucose biscuit. It was

manufactured at the Mumbai factory, Vile Parle and sold in

units of half and quarter pound packs.


13/93

The incredible demand led Parle to introduce the brand

in special branded packs and in larger festive tin packs. By

the year 1949, Parle Gluco biscuits were available not just in

Mumbai but also across the state. It was also sold in parts of

North India. By the early 50s, over 150 tonnes of biscuits

were produced in the Mumbai factory. Looking at the

success of Parle-G, a lot of other me-too brands were

introduced in the market. And these brands had names that

were similar to Parle Gluco Biscuits so that if not by anythingelse, the consumer would err in picking the brand. This

forced Parle to change the name from Parle Gluco Biscuits to

Parle-G.

Originally packed in the wax paper pack, today it is

available in a contemporary, premium BOPP pack with

attractive side fins. The new airtight pack helps to keep the

biscuits fresh and tastier for a longer period.

Parle-G was the only biscuit brand that was always in

short supply. It was heading towards becoming an all-time

great brand of biscuit. Parle-G started being advertised in

the 80's. It was advertised mainly through press ads. The

communication spoke about the basic benefits of energy and

nutrition. In 1989, Parle-G released its Dadaji commercial,

which went on to become one of the most popular

commercials for Parle-G. The commercial was run for a

period of 6 years.

Parle-G grew bigger by the minute. Be it the packs sold,

the areas covered or the number of consumers. It became a

part of the daily lives of many Indians. It wasn't a biscuit any

more. It had become an icon. The next level of

communication associated the brand with the positive

values of life like honesty, sharing and caring.

In the year 1997, Parle-G sponsored the tele-serial of

the Indian superhero, Shaktimaan that went on to become a

huge success. The personality of the superhero matched the

overall superb benefits of the brand. Parle extended this

association with Shaktimaan and gave away a lot of

merchandise of Shaktimaan, which was supported by POSand press communication. The children just could not get

enough of Parle-G and Shaktimaan.

In the year 2002, it was decided to bring the brand

closer to the child who is a major consumer. A national level

promo - `Parle-G Mera Sapna Sach Hoga' was run for a

period of 6 months. The promo was all about fulfilling the

dreams of children. There were over 5 lakh responses and of

that, over 300 dreams were fulfilled. Dreams that were

fulfilled ranged from trips to Disneyland at Paris &

Packaging and Labeling

Packaging:

The time spent by a customer for picking up a product

from a retail outlet is a few seconds; therefore a

package should appeal to a customer within such a

small interval of time. In this, both packaging & labeling

play an important role in attracting customers both

visually & psychologically.

For Parle G: Parle G was initially recognized by its iconic

white and yellow stripped wax paper wrapper with the

baby face on it. Many competitors have tried to sell

their lower quality products by copying the packaging,

trying to sell their biscuits as Parel-G; Parle-Jee etc. Due

to increasing competition Parle G now uses plasticwrappers for its packaging. Parle-G comes in 8 different

sizes: 25gms, 44gms, 93.5gms, 231gms, 340.5gms,

462gms, 577.5gms and a 1kg pack just for Rs.30 which

is not usually offered by other brands.


20/93

Parle Hide & Seek: It initially came out with 3 variants:

Mint, Orange & Chocolate which wasnt accepted by the

masses. However, the production of Mint & orange

flavors was stopped. Chocolate is the only flavor that is

running successfully since it is Indias first chocolate

chip biscuit. . Hide & seek biscuit's current packaging

has been modified along with lower prices & better

affordability rates. Thus there is a change in size of the

product which is prevalent in the ads. One of theadvertisements shows movie actor, Hrithik Roshan

walking with a pack of hide & seek biscuits in the back

pocket of his jeans emphasizing on the small size of the

product.

Parle hide & seek Milano: This product of Parle has a

flashy purple coloured packing which attractscustomers with the whole look of Italian chocolate chip

cookies.

As in all other biscuits, packing plays an important role

in Parle-G too. The basic small packs are packed

mechanically using automated machines and are sealed

using the Polly bag sealing machine. These small packs

are then manually packed into small boxes and are sent

through the conveyor belt to be packed in large cartons.

160 packets are packed per minute. And in one big box

there are 160 Parle-G packets packed.


21/93

Before, they used to bring the packaging material from

outside the company but now it is produced in the

factory premises itself. For export purpose the packets

have different languages print on them depending upon

the geographical location & demand of the people.

Each factory has state-of-the-art machinery with

automatic printing & packaging facilities.

Labeling:

Consumers are becoming increasingly health

conscious. So it is essential to display the contents of

every product. Every packet of Parle G, Parle hide &

seek, Parle hide & seek Milano has information about

the ingredients used, nutrition facts, mailing & emailingaddresses asking for feedback, phone number,

packaging date etc. All this along with the brand name

and directions are printed in Hindi too.

Pricing Strategies

The Parle marketing philosophy emphasizes catering to

the masses. It constantly endeavors at designing

products that provide nutrition & fun to the common

man. Most Parle offerings are in the low & mid-range

price segments. This is based on its cultivated


22/93

understanding of the Indian consumer psyche. The

value-for-money positioning helps generate large sales

volumes for the products.

Parle G has adopted the Market Penetration strategy

i.e. low price along with capturing of a large market

Also they focus on low prices and provide good quality

products at the same time, which means it uses the

value pricing method. This benefits Parle G by having a

competitive edge in terms of large market share whichis around 40%: both rural and urban presently.

For setting the price of Parle hide & seek biscuit, a

survey was taken in the urban & semi-urban markets;

on the basis of which hide & seek was introduced. It

was found that the potential consumers were ready to

pay a premium price for an innovative product likechocolate chip biscuits. Thus, Parle adopted market

skimming where the product is high priced and also of

high quality. It includes the cost of chocolates,

packaging & other processing cost. All these show

customer status, which is also one of the reasons for

parle hide & seeks high price.

A separate example for explaining the pricing strategy

of Parle is its product Parle Creams For this product

Parle uses going rate method only as a reference rate.

In this case, Parle Creams were introduced after


23/93

Britannias Cream Treats with similar variants but at

Rs.5 per packet of biscuit and not Rs.10 like that of

Britannias cream treats.

Public Relations

Parle has done the following for enhancing public

American Power Conversion (APC)

INTRODUCTION & HISTORY

In Indian engineering industry today, APC the premier

ISO 9001 company is a name to reckon with and the first

largest manufacturer of UPS in world. In 1981, APC became


26/93

a publicly held company. The stock trades under the name

APCC.

Uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs) are devices that

maintain the supply of power to load even when the AC

input power is interrupted or disturbed. This is typically

accomplished by drawing the necessary power from a stored

energy source, such as a battery. UPSs may also convert

unregulated input power to voltage and frequent-filtered AC

power. Thus, the UPS will provide stable power and minimize

the effects of electric power supply disturbances and

variations.

Sizes of UPSs vary, from approximately 250 VA to 1000

KVA. Small UPSs are used for single personal computers and

workstations where down time is tolerable but data lossmust be avoided. These UPSs provide enough backup time

for reliable equipment shutdown. Large UPSs provide

mission-critical applications where large-scale protection is

essential.

It is the first of many great days for partners seeking

the best solutions in Critical Power and Cooling Services

from the desktop to the data centre to the factory floor. It is

the first of many great days for our global customers who


27/93

have already come to trust the products, people, and

services behind the APC by Schneider electric name.

And in the first of many days for more than 12,000

employees who now stand side-by-side ready to serve you,

including:

More than 1,600 solution engineers in the field;

More than 500 inside support engineers; and

More than 1,500 field service engineers who are all, in

turn, Backed by a worldwide team of more than 40000

consultants, systems integrators, and value-added

partners ready, willing, and able to take you through a

period of unprecedented change in power and cooling

design.

According to Gartner Research, half of all data centers

will need to overhaul their power and cooling solutions

within the next few years. At the same time, the number of

professionals qualified to design and run modern data

centers will decline 45% (AFCOM).In short, we have lot of

work to do, with fewer qualified industry experts than ever

before.

And the nature of work is also changing. It is no longer

fiscally responsible to oversize power and cooling, no longer


28/93

functionally practical to handle IT-driven demand and

facility-managed supply issues in blissful isolation. After

all, power in equals heat out. It did yesterday, and it will do

so tomorrow. And it will be tomorrows biggest problem.

This means for the businesses of today, the financial

imperative of achieving an Efficient Enterprise and the moral

imperative of implementing green data center systems

together demand that every power, cooling, and

management component be re-evaluated in the context of

an integrated solution performing with minimal waste and

maximum scalability, Power, cooling, and management all

working together, seamlessly, automatically. No downtime,

No headaches, No surprises, For today, and for tomorrow.

APCs History


33/93

Three Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Lincoln

Labs' electronic power engineers founded American Power

Conversion in 1981.

Neil E. Rasmussen (Sr. VP, CTO and Director of APC)

Emanuel E. Landsman (VP)

Ervin F. Lyon (Retired)

At the time, the research and development efforts of

these three men were focused on solar power. Over the next

few years, government funding and incentives in the solar

arena began to dry up. In response, APC shifted its focus to

power protection, introducing its first UPS, the 750, in 1984.

The need for capital to support this growing business was

satisfied in July 1988 when APC became a publicly held

company. The stock, trading under the symbol "APCC," waspriced at $.125 per share when adjusted for stock splits.

It is well known that computer systems require back-up

power solutions. It was quite common for a mainframe

computer to have a large uninterruptible power supply (UPS)

and generator installed in tandem. APC came at the market

from a different perspective. Industry trends involving the

personal computer made APC management realize that

smaller UPSs were necessary for the market that included

personal computers, PC servers and their networks.


34/93

Over the years, APC has developed a global, end-to-

end, product offering targeted at four strategic application

areas: Home/Small Office; Business Networks; Access

Providers and Data Centers & Facilities Internal product

development has been augmented with strategic

acquisitions to form an industry leading product portfolio.

Throughout the world, the APC brand has become

synonymous with quality power back-up and management

solutions.

Today, APC is a leader in its industry, employing over

5,000 people worldwide, and is listed among the prestigious

Fortune 1000, Forbes 500, Nasdaq 100 and S&P 500

rankings.

APC interactive solutions AG were set up in April 2000

through a merger of Philips Multimedia and LB- Data. Private

investors hold 46.35 percent of the company, another 20.48

percent are held by Philips Austria GmbH, 13.69 percent are

held by the LB-Data group and 15.78 is held by a consortium


35/93

of investors. The rest, i.e. 3.69 percent is held by the

management and the staff.

In today's "always on, always available" world where

businesses can't stop and downtime is measured in dollars,

American Power Conversion (APC) provides protection

against some of the leading causes of downtime, data loss

and hardware damage: power problems and temperature. As

This is an existing time at APCs commented Rodger

B. Dowdell Jr., CEO and president OUR record results

reflecting the strength of APCS product offerings and our

increasing presence in the category.

Dowdell said that product strength is being exhibited

from both the high and low end of the companys offerings.

For example, the companys most expensive UPS, Matrix

UPS TM presently exhibits the most momentum in the 3-5

KVA UPS category while the new power managerTM , a power

director oriented towards retail sales, has been winning rare

reviews of its performance and design.

specified environment.

Nature of HRM

Simply put, Human Resource Management (HRM) is a

management function that helps managers to recruit, select,

train and develop members for an organization. Obviously,

HRM is concerned with the people's dimension in

organizations. Following are few definitions of HRM:


64/93

1. HRM is a series of integrated decisions that form the

employment relationship; their quality contributes to the

ability of the organizations and the employees to achieve

their objective.

2. HRM is concerned with the people dimension in

management. Since every organization is made up of

people, acquiring their services, developing their skills,

motivating them to higher levels of performance and

ensuring that they continue to maintain their commitment to

the organization are essential to achieving organizational

objectives. This is true, regardless of the type of organization-

government, business, education, health, recreation, or

social action.

3. HRM is the planning, organizing, directing and

controlling of the procurement, development,compensation, integration, maintenance and separation of

human resources to the end that individual, organizational,

and social objectives are accomplished.

These definitions of HRM can be summarized in the following

points:

1.) Organizations are not mere bricks, mortar,

machineries or inventories. They are people. It is the

people who staff and manage organizations.


65/93

2.) HRM involves the application of management functions

and principles. The functions and principles are

applied to acquisitioning, developing, maintaining,

and remunerating employees in organizations.

3.) Decisions relating to employees must be integrated.

Decisions on different aspects of employeesmust be

consistent with other human resource (HR) decisions.

4. Decisions made must influence the effectiveness of an

organization. Effectiveness of an organization must

result in betterment of services to customers in the

form of high-quality products supplied at reasonable

costs.

5. HRM functions are not confined to business

establishments only. They are applicable to non-

business organizations, too, such as education, healthcare, recreation, and the like.

Scope of HRM

The scope of HRM is indeed vast. All major activities in the

working life of a workerfrom the time of his or her entry

into an organization until lie or she leavescome under the

purview of HRM. Specifically, the activities included areHR

planning, job analysis and design, recruitment and

selection, orientation and placement, training and

development, performance appraisal and job evaluation,


66/93

employee and executive remuneration, motivation and

communication, welfare, safety and health, industrial

relations (IR) and the like.

For the sake of convenience, we can categorize all these

functions into seven sections

(i) Employee hiring,

(ii) Employee and executive remuneration,

(iii) Employee motivation,

(iv) Employee maintenance,

(v) IR, and

(vi) Prospects of HRM (see Fig.1).


67/93

Fig.1 Scope of HRM

Human resource management is a process of bringing

people and organizations together so that the goals of each

are met. It is that part of the management process which is

concerned with the management of human resources in an

organization. It tries to secure the best from people by

winning their whole hearted cooperation. In short, it may bedefined, as the art of procuring, developing and maintaining

competent workforce to achieve the goals of an organization

in an efficient and effective manner.

In other words, it can be said that human resource

management is concerned with people at work and their

relationships with each other.
