EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Now a days the economy is growing at a fast pace in India and the competition in every
sector and industry is getting fierce and intense day by day therefore it has become important
for the organizations to take care of the minutest factor which can affect the company’s
profitability and productivity.
Employee engagement is a tool which not only helps the company increase its profitability
and productivity but is also helpful in retaining the right talent which is again a big challenge
for the companies. “Employee engagement is an outcome based concept. It is the term used to
describe the degree to which an employee is ascribed as aligned and committed to their
organization such that they are at their most productive”.
The given project is a study which finds the prevalent practices of employee engagement in
power industry and comparing those with Reliance’s practices. It also includes the survey
which measures the engagement level in Reliance Infrastructure with the help of 14
parameters and analyzing the cause for low engagement department wise. It also gives the
difference in the perception of the managers and their subordinates which further gives an
overview of the situation of engagement in Reliance Infrastructure.
The main findings of the study include the following:
1) In Reliance Infrastructure most of the employees are satisfied but not engaged.
2) Work Life Balance, Recognition, Role Clarity & Training and Development
opportunities are the major problem areas where Reliance has to work.
3) Support functions like Accounts & Finance, Admin, IT, Marketing & Proposals, are
the functions are the areas where management needs improvement.
4) The perceptions of the managers and their subordinates differ on various crucial
parameters of engagement like Work Life Balance, Role Clarity, Training needs etc.
which limits the scope for improvement.
5) Reliance Infrastructure in lacking quite behind its competitors in providing non
monetary rewards and recognition programs.
6) Reliance Infrastructure provides a handsome compensation to its employees still the
attrition is higher than other players which indicate loop holes in their engagement
and retention policies.
These findings indicate a vast scope of improvement in the employee engagement programs
and practices. And according to me some of the practices and programs which should be
included in the company’s policy are:
1) The areas of immediate concerns are to be taken care first.
2) There should be annual feedback system from the employees
3) Make the employee feel that the organisation is concerned for employees’ health and
well-being.
4) Keeping employees informed about what is going on in the organisation is critical.
5) Build a climate of trust.
6) Hire the right employee at the first place.
7) Make Sure Each Employee Has A Career Path.
8) By All Means, Have Fun.
9) Help supervisors build their engagement and retention skills.
10) Every work whether small or big should be given to the employees in a way that it
appears to be challenging.
11) Once in a month there should be an informal discussion should be conducted between
HR professional and other employees.
12) Once a month (may be Saturdays) organize a small gathering just to appreciate and
praise the performers.
13) Low performers have to be identified.
14) Perception of the managers has to be more close to reality.

INTRODUCTION
In today’s scenario of immense competition the organization has to do something extra in
order to survive and succeed. And for this extra they should hire and retain the employees
who are willing to add value to their organization and care for their organization. But if you
wish to have such employees some inputs has to be needed from your side also. The quality
of people and their engagement will be critical factors in corporate vitality and survival.
Today those companies are successful which are able to extract maximum from their
employees at the same compensation as the competitors by keeping in mind the 3 R’s i.e.
Respect, Recognition & Rewards.
The employer should determine the precise methods to implement these 3 Rs, but in general,
respect should be the largest component of your efforts. Without it, recognition and rewards
seem hollow and have little effect—or they have negative effects.
This is where Employee engagement comes into the picture. It is found that the outcome of
engagement directly affects the following:
Retention
Absenteeism
Productivity
A more pleasant work environment (for both employees and employer)
Effective service delivery or profitability
Respect
Recognition
Rewards
Customer engagement, and
Safety orientation.
An organization’s productivity is measured not in terms of employee satisfaction but by
employee engagement. Employees are said to be engaged when they show a positive attitude
toward the organization and express a commitment to remain with the organization.
WHY DO WE EMPHASIZE SO MUCH ON ENGAGEMENT?
The organizations emphasize on engagement because of the following reasons:
To reduce recruitment and training costs. It has been found that recruiting and training
new leaders (supervisors and managers) will cost a company approximately 90-150%
of the employee’s annual salary and this doesn’t even include the cost of
lost knowledge.
It has also been estimated that it costs an organization approximately one-third of a
new hire’s annual salary to replace a non-exempt employee
A major driver and contributor for increasing employee retention and reducing
attrition.
In many organizations, losing employees has a domino effect. When
one employee leaves, others often wonder about opportunities
elsewhere. Those other opportunities start to look better as
employees pick up the slack for those who have moved on.
Finding employees is even more difficult in high-demand markets,
such as in power sector. Furthermore, finding employees is not the
only thing. Other employers and recruiters know where to find good
people and are aggressively recruiting them—even if they’re
already working for your company.
High turnover often leaves customers and employees in the lurch;
departing employees take a great deal of knowledge with them. This
lack of continuity makes it hard to meet your organization’s goals
and serve customers well.
Recruiting employees consumes a great deal of time and effort,
much of it futile. You’re not the only one out there vying for
qualified employees, and job searchers make decisions based on
more than the sum of salary and benefits.
Bringing employees up to speed takes even more time. And when
you’re short-staffed, you often need to put in extra time to get the
work done.
When we hire a candidate there are some expectations from the employer and some
expectations from the employee these set of expectations constitutes the psychological
contract between the employer and employee.
Psychological contract is the overall set of expectations held by an individual with respect to
what he or she will contribute to the organization and what the organization will provide in
return.
This contract has to be maintained and if the contract is breached it will result in attrition of
some of the key and critical talent.
Employee engagement has become a critical factor in delivering exceptional service
experiences. A recent study by Standard Life shows that the employees the felt part of the
business and understood its goals were willing and able to contribute their best to achieving
those goals. The company’s internal communications plan and branding is a huge step toward
employee engagement.

Employee engagement is a challenging topic nowadays because it is a key driver of
organizational productivity. Nowadays employee engagement is directly related to the ROI.
An employee engagement study by ISR has found:
A gap of almost 52 percent in the one-year performance improvement in operating
income between companies with highly engaged employees versus companies whose
employees have low engagement scores.
High engagement companies improved 19.2 percent while low engagement
companies declined 32.7 percent in operating income over the study period.
Employee engagement is one of the major drivers and contributor for increasing employee
retention rate and decreasing the attrition rate.
Hence it is important for a company to take care of its employee engagement programs and
policies. Here comes the need for doing research on employee engagement.
In Reliance Energy Ltd. which is now Reliance Infrastructure Ltd. various programs and
policies are renewed and upgraded for increasing retention and decreasing attrition rate.
Therefore to help the organization in lowering down its attrition rate Employee engagement
can be proved to be an effective tool. Further not only being effective but the tool should be
cost effective also.The diagnostic tool to be used for the concerned purpose in the present
research is as follows:
RELIANCE INFRASTRUCTRE LTD.AT
A GLANCE
Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani(ADA) Group includes Reliance Infocomm Ltd, Reliance
Capital Ltd., Reliance Energy Ltd. which is now known as Reliance Infrastructure Ltd.The
Chairman of Reliance ADA is MR.ANIL AMBANI. Reliance believes "Growth is Life" - for
Reliance and for all Reliance people. Aspiring to achieve growth rates well above our
industry’s average, they clearly have a need to hire, develop and motivate the best people in
the world to help them drive that growth. Reliance offer world of opportunities to employees
by giving them more freedom and responsibility to chart their own course within the
company. The company offer comprehensive world-class training and development
resources. Networking, coaching and mentoring provide additional opportunities forpeople to
grow personally and professionally throughout their careers.

Group. The organization deals in Generation, Transmission and Distribution of Electricity. It
has also emerged as one of the leading player in EPC (Engineering, Procurement &
Construction) division. The corporate office is in Mumbai. In Noida there are three offices

suggestions are given at the end it can be classified under conclusive research. For achieving
the research objectives firstly went to six companies in the same industry and interviewed the
Manager HR of each company and find the engagement practices in their companies. This
helped me to find out the prevalent practices in the power sector. Then the second part of the
research is to conduct a survey in Reliance Infrastructure Ltd. for knowing the engagement
level in Reliance Infrastructure Ltd. department wise which will be helpful in finding out the
problem more precisely. The questionnaire used consists of 22 questions which measures
various parameters of engagement. Questionnaire comprises of 12 questions from Gallup,

Engagement at Reliance Infrastructure Ltd.
(A survey )
When asked whether the employees have received recognition or praise for doing good work
the employees replied as follows:
Interpretation
78.08% employees in the organization do not feel recognized for their achievements. This is
quite a big percentage which has to be handled as soon as possible and most probable reason
for this which I found in my survey can be lesser formal rewards and appreciation for the
work the employees did.
When asked the question whether the employees have a good environment at their workplace,
they replied as follows:

Interpretation
45.2% employees responded “NO” to this question which is less than half but still enough to
alarm the organization to make some changes in their present thinking. The reason which can
be related to this area can be the resistance to change of the older employees in comparison to
the dynamic culture the youth wants
When asked the question whether the employees had opportunities at work to learn and grow,
they replied as follows:
Interpretation
52.1% of the employees thinks that their company does not provide enough opportunities for
them to learn and grow which is a very discouraging statistic because the company provide
ample opportunities for their company’s learning and growth and still employees feel that
their company is not concerned for their growth. This may be due to the unawareness of the
employees about their company’s policies.
When asked the employees whether they are aware of what is expected of them at work, they
replied as follows:

Interpretation
70.55% of employees responding “NO” indicate that employees are not communicated
properly about what is expected from him by the job and the organization. This could be a
major factor affecting the organization’s productivity and profitability. One of the major
reasons for such response according to my research can be communication gap which has to
be narrowed.

Interpretation
If 67.8% of the employees think that they get no help or a very little help from their company
to balance their work and personal lives then the company look into their employee benefit
schemes and modify them keeping in mind both the expectations of the employee and the
company.

55.5% employees agree or strongly agree to willingly do extra then the assigned job. But the
problem is those 26% who doesn’t know whether they will or not. The company should

system. 25.3% believes that they are not fairly treated in appraisals and around 20% can’t
form an opinion about the transparency of appraisal system. No organization can satisfy their
employees on appraisals matter 100% but efforts could be done to convince them.
Parameters which need immediate
attention:
Interpretation
These three parameters i.e. Recognition, Role Clarity and Work life balance shows that
somewhere the policies are lacking in making the employees feel that they are taken care of.
Through my research shows that mainly no proper communication between the superior and
subordinate is the reason. Employees don’t feel comfortable going to their superiors instead
of the fact that the superiors are willing to help.
Parameters which needs attention:
Interpretation
These three parameters i.e. support from immediate management, Training development &
carrier opportunities are to be attended where the company can concentrate on analyzing the
need for training , improving and making the culture more dynamic to capture the new and
young talent.
Positive points of employee engagement
practices in REL.
Reliance provides all its employees equal opportunities. The employees receive co operation
from their peers which could be the reason for a good satisfaction statistic but it could be
improved further.
INTERPRETATION
These four parameters data shows that the employees are happy with of the appraisal system
of their organization, they found it easy to approach and access top management, the
decisions are generally taken by the right person responsible for the outcome of that job and
they will love to put their extra efforts for the success of their organization.
Engagement level in Reliance Infrastructure Ltd.
Engaged -“Engaged" employees are builders. They want to know the desired expectations for their role so they can meet and exceed them. They're naturally curious about their company and their place in it. They perform at consistently high levels. They want to use their talents and strengths at work every day. They work with passion and they drive innovation and move their organization forward. After research it has been found that there are 49.2% engaged employees in Reliance Infrastructure Ltd.
Not Engaged - Not-engaged employees tend to concentrate on tasks rather than the goals and outcomes they are expected to accomplish. They want to be told what to do just so they can do it and say they have finished. They focus on accomplishing tasks vs. achieving an outcome. Employees who are not-engaged tend to feel their contributions are being overlooked, and their potential is not being tapped. They often feel this way because they don't have productive relationships with their managers or with their co-workers.In Reliance Infrastructure Ltd there are 32.3% non engaged employees.
Actively Disengaged- The "actively disengaged" employees are the "cave dwellers."They're "Consistently against Virtually Everything." They're not just unhappy at work;they're busy acting out their unhappiness .They sow seeds of negativity at everyopportunity. Every day, actively disengaged workers undermine what their engagedcoworkers accomplish. As workers increasingly rely on each other to generate productsand services, the problems and tensions that are fostered by actively disengaged workerscan cause great damage to an organization's functioning .In Reliance there are 28.5% actively disengaged employees.
These statistics shows the need for further research.
Pareto 80 – 20 Analysis:
Pareto principle states that mostly 20% of the causes for 80% of the problem which indicates
that if we take care of these 20% causes then the results will be more prominent. The value of
the Pareto Principle for a manager is that it reminds you to focus on the 20 percent that
matters. Of the things you do during your day, only 20 percent really matter. Those 20
percent produce 80 percent of your results. Identify and focus on those things.
In this research for the 80% problem in engagement is due to 3 major parameters. Those are
Role Clarity, Recognition and Work life balance. If we focus on these 3 factors we could get
good result in much lesser time. Therefore I would be further analyzing these parameters in
detail.
Engagement Parameters in Reliance Department Wise Analysis:
ROLE CLARITY
SupportFunctions
Various Projects
Engineering
INTERPRETATION
It is seen that the role clarity problem is quite evenly distributed amongst the support
functions, projects and engineering. This means that the role clarity is a problem throughout
the organization and has to be dealt immediately with due care. The data shows that in the
support functions Transmission, EHS (Environment, Health & Safety) and Accounts &
Finance are the areas which are worst affected with this issue. The problem could be due to
the some sort of mismanagement in the organization or due to some communication problem
between the management and the employees. Among the projects Hisar , Sasan and Rosa are
the projects where the roles assigned to the employees has to be communicated to them
properly. Engineering is also equally suffering from the problem.
RECOGNITION
Support Functions
Various Projects
Engineering
INTERPRETATION
Recognition is another parameter which needs to be checked. The data shows that employees
of the support functions were facing more recognition challenges than the other two. The
thing to notice here is that instead of the fact that Reliance provide excellent performance
linked incentives still the employees doesn’t feel recognized for their achievements which
indicates that only monetary incentives are not sufficient for the employees they need some
appreciation. This can be improved by giving them some small awards for their efforts which
make them feel that their efforts are noticed and appreciated by their company. Research
could be done in the engineering departments where the recognition problem seems to be
comparatively better. This research will help find out what make the engineering departments
employees feel recognized which could be applied to the other departments.
WORK LIFE BALANCE
Support Functions
Various Projects
Engineering
INTERPRETATION
Every organization should take care that their employees should be able to balance their work
and life this will not only help their employees but the organization itself also. But Reliance
Infrastructure is somewhere lacking in providing help, support and services to their
employees for balancing their work and life. Worst case scenario seems to be in Accounts&
Finance, Admin, DAEC, Hydro, Sasan, Yamunanagar and contract& commercial.
For improving this the needs of the employees has to be identified with similar importance as
done for the needs of the customers.
Difference in the perception of the manager and employee on engagement parameters
responsible for majority of problem:
When questions on same parameters were asked to both the employer and the employee it is
seen that there is a prominent difference in the perception of the two. This difference in
perception is shown in form of some graphs as follows:
Work Life Balance
When asked whether the company provide services to the employees to balance their work
and family lives the employer and employees replies can be plotted as follows:
Recognition
When asked whether the supervisors take care of their subordinates as a person the employer
and employees replies can be plotted as follows:
Role Clarity
When asked whether the employees know what they have to do the employer and employees replies can be plotted as follows?
INTERPRETATION
The difference in the perception of the managers and the employees can be regarded as the major contributor in discouraging the employees and further disengaging them. This could be a major force compelling the engagement levels to be at lower levels. To help the organization in employee engagement these perception differences has to be overcome. For this the most effective tool is the proper communication between the supervisor and the subordinates.

What employees want?
More care and concern for employees.
Growth opportunities should be should be clearly informed and must be frequently
given.
Services are not given equally even to employees of same level and grade.
Extracurricular activities should be started which should involve employees family
also.
Some holidays for the GETs and MTs.
Clarity while assigning roles.
Compensation should be reviewed according to the present inflation rates.
Incentives should be rationalized and more consideration for experience should be
avoided.
Higher studies should be encouraged.
Timing of release needs to be rationalized.
Employees’ needs should be given more importance.
Site visit opportunities of the concerned project should be given to employees of that
project in noida offices.
Job rotation opportunities should be provided within the department.
More structured training and workshops for GETs.
ConclusionThe conclusion that can be drawn from the survey and interviews conducted is as follows:
1. The role of senior management is really important in employee engagement programs
as they have to act as the sponsor of the scheme and ensure that the commitment level
remains high throughout the organization towards these schemes.
2. Employees like challenging assignments rather than routine, highly structured jobs as
the element of learning and growth is missing in their work which hampers their
overall output. The response of employees of the Company indicates that they can
certainly improve the engagement level in their organization by adopting a more
challenging and exciting work culture. The feeling of working on a useful and
challenging assignment does help in ensuring proper engagement.
3. Employees like to feel that there is someone to whom they can turn for advice, if they
need it. The workplace environment should have a culture where people are working
more as a team and the role of the supervisor is to act as a helping hand rather than
being a taskmaster.
4. Employee Engagement is all about making employees ‘feel involved and valued’. As
such, if the company does not provide its employee a fair chance to grow and their
suggestions and opinions are not encouraged, then the company is bound to lose its
market share heavily.
5. There is a lot of scope for improvement in the engagement services of Reliance which
could be highly helpful in retaining the best talent.
Suggestions
A well developed Induction/Orientation program for new joinees. In Reliance
Infrastructure Ltd. the Induction program is there but it has to be given more
importance.
Training for soft skills should be provided to all the managers. In comparison to
technical training not many soft skills trainings are provided to the managers
Some cost effective recreational activities should be started.
Families of the employees should be considered a part of the company.
Higher education should be promoted.
Workforce Scheduling should be done with due care.
Every work whether small or big should be given to the employees in a way that it
appears to be challenging.
Once in a month there should be an informal discussion should be conducted between
HR professional and other employees.
Once a month (may be Saturdays) organize a small gathering just to appreciate and
praise the performers.
Low performers have to be identified.
Perception of the employers has to be more close to reality.
Feedback at every step.
The strong correlation between engagement and retention allows to distinguish two trends:
1. That strategies for retention should be segmented based on the level of engagement
for any one individual – namely that retention policies (such as when to make a
counter-offer) should always consider how strongly the individual is contributing to
the organization’s success but also how sustainable is that effort. For instance,
retaining an employee who is leaving because they are dissatisfied with their current
role simply by meeting their salary demands will not result in sustained effort unless
the job conditions are also changed.
2. That stated intent to leave the organization is not a predictor of actual departure.
3. Instead, it is an indicator of how hard a person will be working to help the
organization to reach its objectives and how much effort may be spent on other
activities (such as tracking the “wanted” ads on company time.)
Involve and train Function and Area Leaders in the engagement action planning
process.
Acknowledge impact of workload and provide tools and resources where they are
most needed.
Incorporate Engagement as a business metric for managing the human capital.
ENGAGEMENT MODEL FOR RELIANCE INFRASTRUCTURE LIMITED.
Recruiting
The message the organization conveys while seeking to attract job applicants also can
influence future employees’ engagement and commitment. Your target should be qualified
applicants who are likely to find the work interesting and challenging. Send recruiting
messages that shows attractive job features to enhance person-job fit and also encourage
those who are not suited to the work to self-select out.
Selecting
To enhance engagement through your selection of employees, identify those candidates who
are best-suited to the job and your organization’s culture. Also use candidate assessment
methods that have obvious relevance to the job in question—for example, by asking
interviewees what they know about the role and having them provide work samples.
Selection is the first step to success. If you don't select the right people, you'll never
maximize your level of employee engagement.
Training & Development
Training can help new and current employees acquire the knowledge and skills they need to
perform their jobs. And employees who enhance their skills through training are more likely
to engage fully in their work, because they derive satisfaction from mastering new tasks.
Training also enhances employees’ value to your company as well as their own employability
in the job market. In addition, most companies offer higher wages for skilled workers, to
compensate them for their greater value and to discourage turnover.
Make sure that your managers and employees are trained about the importance of
engagement.
Compensation
Compensation can powerfully influence employee engagement and commitment. Some
compensation components encourage commitment to employers, while others motivate
engagement in the job. It is always to take care of both. The most effective compensation
plans support your organization’s strategic objectives. For example, if your company’s
strategy hinges on innovation, then your compensation system should encourage and reward
risk-taking. A well-designed compensation plan gives your organization a competitive
advantage. It helps you attract the best job candidates, motivate them to perform to their
maximum potential and retain them for the long term.
Performance Management
The right performance management practices also can enhance employee engagement and
commitment. Encourage managers to include employees in the goal-setting process. This
technique helps to ensure that workers understand the goals. An employee’s aspirations and
career goals should receive careful attention during performance appraisal meetings. To
increase engagement provide the employees with challenging goals that align with your
company’s strategic objectives, positive feedback and recognition for accomplishments and
recognition and appreciation for extra voluntary contributions.
