His vision of enterprise in the 1920 was certainly not a dream

AN INTRODUCTION TO THAPAR GROUP

Where growth is not only an obsession

A visionary who wanted to lay the foundation of an enterprise that would help India through her

formative years, founded the Thapar Group in the early 1920s. As pioneers they are the fourth

largest industrial conglomerate in the country, with over 54 different companies and 80

manufacturing plants. Assets have accumulated over Rs. 24,000 million with an annual turnover of

about $ 2 billion. The group grows annually at the rate of over 19%. The group has diversified

industrial interests that include Paper, Chemicals, Textiles, Man made Fibers, Glass, Electronics,

Heavy Engineering, Diesel Engines, Power Equipment, Motor and Pump sets, Gensets, Transmission

and Distribution Equipments etc. Beyond this, the Thapar Group manufactures equipment for

industries related to Aviation, Mining, Marine, Metallurgy, Oil exploration, Shipping, and

Mechanical handling. Industrial products like Electronic Process Instrumentation Boilers and

Furnaces, Steam and Energy Control Equipment are also the part of Thapar Groups activities.

Software growth is another area that Thapar Group has explored.

Flagship that represents the Thapar Group:

Ballarpur Industries Ltd.

JCT Ltd.

Compton Greaves Ltd.

Greaves Cotton and Company Ltd.

The companies have gone beyond their initial industrial interest and pioneered a wide range of

products and services through their subsidiaries. The Thapar Groups spectacular growth in a span of

over 80 years is a result of two factors:

8/3/2019 JAGRITI3

8/86

A clear philosophy that governs the mission of business across all levels of hierarchy and the

openness of mind to share global technologies with those who are willing and brave.

The Thapar Groups manufacturing values ensure associations only with the worlds best and

most capable corporations. The collaboration list constitutes giants like Du-Pont, Zimmer, AG

Hitachi Ltd., OKI Electricals, Westinghouse, David Brown Ruston & Hornsby Hawker

Siddsley, Siemens AG and Bush Electronics.

The group owes its success to a well known attitude of doing business globally and nationally, an

attitude that involves lighting changes, both in terms of technology, infrastructure, and ability to

adopt the changing scenario at home and abroad, and a warm management philosophy that always

puts people first.

AN OVER VIEW OF JCT LIMITED: PHAGWARA

In the field of cotton and blended fabrics, JCT has always been a trendsetter. It is one of the leading

manufacturers and exporters of cotton textiles in the country.JCT limited Phagwara; a composite unit having spinning, weaving, and processing facilities is a blue

chip company of the Thapar Group and was incorporated on 28th October, 1946 under the name of

M/S Jagatjit Cotton textiles Mills. The establishment of JCT limited was the result of the decision

taken by the government of India under the post war development plan. It was decided to locate the

mill in the north India and after much discussion; Kapurthala was selected as a site for textile venture.

It was M/S Karamchand Bros. Ltd. Who entered into a final contract with the government of India to

set a mill at Phagwara (Punjab). The disadvantage of unfavorable weather was offset by other factors

such as cheap labour, availability of raw material, and governments aid. Thus, the company came

into existence in 1946.

In the initial years, the business was on a small scale and the company was manufacturing only cotton

fabrics. That is why it is called Jagatjit Cotton Textiles Ltd. Afterwards the company also started

manufacturing cotton yarn, and nylon T filament yarn. JCT has made a big dent in synthetic markets

by producing plain and fancy suiting; both piece dyed and fibre dyed and dyed yarn shirting in

innumerable designs and weaves to cater the different segments of the market.

The policy of management to reinvest its profits year after year led the mill to grow rapidly into one

of the leading textiles mill in the country. In 1995, Rs. 300 crores was invested for the modernization

of the Phagwara unit. This unit is now one of the most modern units with the state of art technology.

The management for over three decades has implemented the concept of participative management.

The workers/ employees and their representatives are fully involved in the management and running

the affairs of the company. This policy of management has generated tremendous goodwill for the

company amongst its employees and the result is that the company has a committed workforce of

about 5000 workers and 530 employees and the most cordial employee- employer relationship.

market. There has been a constant growth in the man-made fibre with a wide variety of nylon and

polyester filament yarn.

PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL: THEORETICAL

FRAMEWORK

Performance appraisal or merit rating is one of the oldest and most

universal practices of management. It refers to all the formal procedures used in

working organizations to evaluate the personalities and contributions and potential

of group members. Modern management makes somewhat less used to be on the

evaluation of merits of an individual his worth as a person. The approach

resulted in a appraisal system in which the employees merit like initiative,

dependability, personality, etc. were compared with others and ranked or rated.

This was; however, open to question because the connection between performance

and possession of traits was doubtful. Trait evaluations provide little tangible to

discuss, little on which participants could agree as fact and, therefore, little mutual

understanding of what would be given to measuring the results of the employees

performance. The trend nowadays is in the direction of attempting to measure

what the man does (performance appraisal) rather than what he is (merit rating)

to measure what is input.

8/3/2019 JAGRITI3

38/86

PURPOSE OF APPRAISAL

Appraisal of employee serves several useful purposes.

It can serve as a basis for job change or promotion. By establishing whether

the worker can contribute still more in a different or a higher job it helps in

his suitable promotion and placements.

By identifying the strengths and weakness of an employee it serves as a

guide for formulating a suitable training and development programme to

improve his quality of performance in his present work.

It serves as a feedback to the employee. By letting the employee know how

well he is doing or where he stands with his superior it tells him what he

can do to improve his present performance and go up in the management

hierarchy. The appraisal thus facilitates multiplication of managerial

resources.

It serves as an important incentive to all the employees who are by the

existence of an appraisal system assured of the managements continued

interest in them and of their continuous possibilities to develop. Theemployees realize that not only are they being continuously observed but

they have not been forgotten

The existence of a regular appraisal system tends to make the supervisors

and executives more observant of their subordinates because they will be

expected periodically to fill out rating forms and would be called upon to

justify their estimates. This knowledge results in improved supervision.

Performance appraisal serves as means for evaluating the effectiveness of

devices used for the selection and classification of workers. Alternatively,

knowledge of the characteristics of superior and junior worker can be

helpful in selection and placement of workers and in making future

projections.

8/3/2019 JAGRITI3

39/86

Permanent performance appraisal records of employees help management

to give up sole reliance upon personal knowledge of supervisors who may

be shifted.

FACTORS AFFECTING PERFORMANCE

APPRAISAL

According to Prof. S.K. Chakraborty performance appraisal should be

done with caution. It is always advisable to make a preliminary survey of the

following constraints within which the employees of an organization are working.

Environment constraints: There are several environmental

constraints, which may be outside the control of a worker, and to ignore

this fact in judging his performance would be unjust. For example, the

quality of raw material in an organization may deteriorate over a period or

the machinery may break down unexpectedly. As a result both productivity

and quality may suffer. But if selection of materials and maintenance of

machinery are done at higher levels in the organizations the performance

appraisal of the workers should not be affected.

Organizational leadership: The style of the top leadership of an

organization should also be looked into. It is the nature of leadership at the

top which determines to a large extent the loyalty and commitment if

employees to the goal of an organization. Effective top leadership orients

and motivates the entire organization for better performance. Employees at

the entry level become highly performance conscious. Everybody likes

performance appraisal under such conditions. But in opposite conditions it

is considered an imposition or structure.

8/3/2019 JAGRITI3

40/86

Interdependence of sub-system : Since every organization is a big system

composed of a number of interdependent sub-systems, has got to be

interpreted n the context of all other sub-system to which it is related. For

example, the sub-standard output of the production department may be dueto the poor quality of purchases made by the purchasing Department or the

trouble may be at some higher level where planning for the production and

purchase department has been done. It is precisely because of this

interdependence of sub-system that suggestion is often made to start

performance appraisal from the apex. This leads to more systematic and

logical cause and effect tracing of Performance at all levels within the

organization.

Organization structure : Initiative, drive and innovation thrive best in a

flexible structure. These qualities do not receive encouragement in a rigid

structure. This is because in this type of structure the authority to approve

innovation is often placed several levels above the people who innovative.

This makes the proposal pass from person to person and robs the

information reaching the ultimate decision makers of much of its logic and

understanding. What is needed is a direct relationship between the doer

and the approver. In rigid structures ponderous planning and controls make

people give up innovating and becomes resigned and bitter. Rather than

beg for the acceptance of their innovative dead wood at work.

FREQUENCY OF APPRAISALS

Appraisal can be either summative or formative. In a summative

appraisal system an individuals performance is evaluated at the end of a specific

8/3/2019 JAGRITI3

41/86

period of time by summing his total achievement of stated goals, objectives,

strategies, etc. Formative appraisal system, on the other hand, sees appraisal as an

ongoing, almost daily process in which individuals receive a constant feedback on

their performance to be inputted to their continued development. Under thissystem, managers assume that the situation of constant change necessitates a

continuous process of appraisal rather than a time specific process. Formative

appraisal processes generally characterize those organizations whose environment

is one of constant flux.

METHODS OF PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL

Out of the various method of appraisal, the major ones are being enumerated

below-

1. Ranking methods: The oldest and simplest method of performance appraisal is

to compare one man to another and place him in a simple rank order. In this way

the individuals are ordered from the best to the worst in a group. This method is

both simple and natural but its disadvantages are:

It is highly subjective.

People are compared as a whole and there is no comparison of various

components that sum up to make the persons performance.

The magnitude of differences in ability between ranks is not equal at

different positions.

A variation in this method is the PAIRED COMPARISON RATINGsystem

wherein the appraiser compares each man in his group with every other man with

the final ranking of each being determined by the number of times he was judged

better than others.

8/3/2019 JAGRITI3

42/86

2. Rating Scale Method: Ranking method becomes unsuitable when the no to be

appraised is large and where it is desired to gain information about the absolute

difference between ranking individuals. In such cases rating methods are used.Rating scale provides a scale of measuring the absolute difference

between individual in respect of crucial job related factors such as quantity and

quality of work, cooperation, initiative, dependability, leadership, safety,

attendance etc. the rating scales that are used mat be DISCRETE where the

characteristics are divided into definite categories with discrete intervals, or

CONTINUOUSwherein the characteristics are rated along a continuum without

intervals between them.

There are four kinds of standards used in both kinds of rating scales. These are:

NUMERICAL STANDARDS: a series of letters or number are provided to

indicate variations in the level of desirability of characteristic being rated .For

example, a 1 to 10 scale or a five point rating from A to E.

DESCRIPTIVE OBJECTIVE STANDARDS: a series of descriptive adjectives

like excellent, good, poor, etc are used to indicate the level of desirability of

characteristic being rated.

The drawback in both these methods is that the alphabets, numbers or

adjectives do not convey the same meaning to all appraisers.

MAN-TO-MAN SCALE: These standards are very concrete because these are

persons of varying ability who have been selected and ranked in the ability under

consideration. Thus, a scale of men is created for each trait.

The objections to this scale are-

It is very difficult to construct

8/3/2019 JAGRITI3

43/86

Changes in standards occur when the models leave the

organization.

Intervals between men are often not of equal magnitude.

BEHAVIOUR SAMPLE STANDARDS: A series of actual description of

behaviour is employed which is supposed to indicate varying amounts of the

characteristics being rated. The use of actual descriptions of behaviour reduces

some of the differences in interpretation by the appraisers. The most popular

behavior sample standard is the BEHAVIORALLY ANCHORED RATING

SCALES (BARS).

3. Check List Method: This is a list consisting of a number of statements about

the workers and his behavior. Each statement on the list is assigned a value

depending upon its importance. In apprising a person the appraiser is asked to

place a plus sign, minus sign or question mark against each. The workers final

rating is taken as the average of the scale values of all statements checked with

plus sign. The objections to this system are:

It is difficult to construct a checklist

A separate check list for each job is required.

Since ratings given to statements are hidden from the appraiser, he

may resent the system.

4. Forced Choice Method: A forced choice method form consists of a number of

statements which describe an individual being rated and the appraisers is

compelled to check a most and a least relevant in each group of statements. This

method has built in safeguard against partiality. The appraiser does not know

which of the statement in a given group is critical or relevant for effective job

performance. The objection to this method is:

8/3/2019 JAGRITI3

44/86

It is expensive to install because the statements in a forced distribution

choice form have to be custom tailored to the company.

Ratters may resent the method as rating given to statements is hidden from

the appraiser.

5. Critical Incident Technique: The critical requirements for each job are

identified, listed and assigned values by experts. The appraisers then records on

the job behavior and tallies it with the critical incidents. The objections to this

method are:

Critical incidents are difficult to identify.

It is not desirable to confront an employee with a mistake he committed

four to six months ago.

The scope of halo or horn effect is increased in appraisal.

6. Essay Method: The appraiser is required to give in writing an informed and

honest account of the candidates strengths, weakness, potentials, and so on. The

drawbacks are the variability of the account in length and content which makes

comparison difficult.

LIMITATIONS OF APPRAISAL METHODS

1. Emphasis on human performance without regard for human values.

George S Odiornel denounces all appraisal methods for their single inherent

weakness that they lay emphasis on alikeness and conformity for human

performance ignoring measurement of human values. All appraisal methods,

according to him, are like quality control system which force subordinates to

conform to certain standards of physical performance without caring for human

values which for less tangible are essential ingredients in the whole process .

8/3/2019 JAGRITI3

45/86

The result is that this appraisal methods rank both the benevolent and

despotic managers equal if they are found equal in their physical achievements-no

matter if their value systems are widely different .Rudolph Roses, who had

personally supervised the execution of tow million political prisoners in Germany,would thus we measured by many appraisal methods as excellent a managerial

skills of organizing, planning and control.

2. Halo effect: It is the tendency of the superior to allow his good impressions of

one or two important work characteristics of an individual to carry over the total

evaluation. In such a case the superior rates all the characteristics of a person much

higher then they should be. For example, if the superior is a person who is very

fond of punctuality, a punctual worker may get a high rating on practically every

factor though many factors have little to do with punctuality.

Following are some other examples of this effect:

(1) The man who has done good work in the distant past is assumed to be good in

the recent past also.

(2) Those who agree with us nod their heads when we talk and as skilled flatterersget better ratings then performance justifies.

(3) The man who did an outstanding job last week or yesterday can offset

mediocre performance over the rest of the year by this single act.

(4)The man who pesters the boss but gets the work done may be rated lower then

the silent, solitary dud.

3. Hypercritical or Horns effect: It is the tendency of a superior to rate

people lower then their performances justify. Following are some examples of

this effect:

8/3/2019 JAGRITI3

46/86

The superior is a perfectionist. Because his exception level is very high, he

is more often disappointed and rates his people lower then should.

The maverick or the non-conformist gets a low rating simply because he isdifferent.

The man who has recently failed may wipe out the effect of years of good

work on his appraisal and be rated low on his recent behaviour.

The man who is too meek, too passive or who lacks some traits we attach to

good men may suffer in his rating.

The man who does not do the job as well as we remember we did when we

held that job may suffer more than those who do work unfamiliar to us.

4. Central tendency and leniency: The superior is frequency guilty of averaging

too many work characteristics in the middle grades. It may result from the fact that

he does not know rates well enough to express a discriminatory opinion. He may

result from the fact that he does not expose his lack of more information. The

related limitation are sometimes overcome by following a forced distribution

system, in which certain percentages are established foe each grade and the rater is

asked to keep in view these percentages while rating appraises under him. This

system has the advantage of forcing a distribution of the juniors in different

grades. This system has the advantage of forcing a distribution of the juniors in

different grades, so that the rater cannot relax and judge them all as average,

juniors or below average.

5. Reluctance to Play God: Some managers are willing to play god by

judging others. Accepting responsibility, for being a judge, for the future of

8/3/2019 JAGRITI3

47/86

another person serves anxiety in some people. The tendency to complete the

appraisal form at the last moment when they are due and to treat the entire process

casually may well be necessary to relive the anxiety of the evaluator in the feeling

that the superior is arbitrary in his judgment. This is a very frustrating experiencefor an honest and impartial superior.

6. Defensiveness of employees The appraisal process frequently creates

defensiveness among employee. Since the supervisors appraisal influences the

employees most vital job concerns-promotions transfer and dismissal- the

employees defensiveness during an appraisal interview often makes the procedure

unproductive for both the supervisor and their juniors.

ESSENTIALS OF A GOOD APPRAISAL SYSTEM

Following are the essentials of a good appraisal system:

It must be easily understandable: If the system is too complex or too time

consuming, it may be anchored to the ground by its own dead weight of

complicated form which nobody but the experts understand.

It must have the support of all line people who administer: If the line

people think it is too theoretical, too ambitious, too unrealistic, or that it has

been foisted on them by ivory-tower staff consultants who have no

comprehension of the demand on the time of the line operators, they will

resent it. Similar, if they feel that their role is not very important they will

not take the system seriously. At present, in many Indian organizations

appraisal is done at 3 levels- reporting officers, reviewing officers, and

higher authority. Since each levels can countermand the previous one, the

reporting officer as the immediate supervisor feels that he has little role to

play.

8/3/2019 JAGRITI3

48/86

The system should be sufficiently grounded in the requirements of the

organization: It should reflect the value system of the organization. In fact,functioning as a definition of performance, it should tell the employees

what set of activities or what qualities are considered desirable by the

organization. As such it should have linkage with the job description.

The system should be both valid and reliable: The validity of rating

is the degree to which they are truly indicative of the intrinsic merit of the

employees. The reliability of rating is the consistency with which the

ratings are made, either by different raters, or by one rater at different time.

Both validity and reliability result from objectivity and bunch all their

employees in one or two top ranks without taking into account their merit.

This produces outstanding performers but not outstanding performance and

raises doubts about the validity of the system.

The system should have built-in incentive: That is, a reward should

follow satisfactory performance. Many authors, however, advocate against

a direct linkage between appraisal and rewards. In their opinion, such a

connection throttles downward communication of performance appraisal

because superiors do not like being questioned by disgruntled subordinates

in the event of an adverse appraisal.

LIMITATIONS OF THE PROJECT

While conducting the survey, many deterrent have been faced which acted as a

limitation rather. Had these interventions not been there, the project would have

been a much bigger success than it has actually been. Here are some of the main

limitations: -

1. Being a private concern, the employees were hesitant to provide

information

8/3/2019 JAGRITI3

78/86

2. Lack of time on part of the officials of JCT LTD also restricts the

scope of research.

3. Chance of biased responses especially on the part of workers could

not be eliminated though necessary steps were taken for the same.

4. Unable to go through maximum number of employees.

5. Less duration of study.

6. Unable to get detailed information.

7. Some respondents were not co-operative

8. Some Employees were not aware about proper system of appraisal.

SUGGESTIONS

Based on the study conducted, and the observations made, the following

suggestions and recommendations are made which in my humble belief will be of

help in improving and bettering the performance appraisal system in the

organization.

1) A post appraisal interview of appraisers feedback to the appraise about

how the entire performance appraisal discussion will go a long way in

building better trust and confidence of the employees in the performance

appraisal system.

8/3/2019 JAGRITI3

79/86

2) Problem-solving Interview or Counseling should be made an integral part

of the performance appraisal procedure to deal with those employees who

have disagreements with or grievances over their appraisal. In such an

interview the appraiser also takes over the role of a counselor to try to finda solution to any problem which the junior may have regarding appraisal as

soon as it crops up

3) Training for appraisers:

Appraising an employee is a job, which carries great responsibility and is of

utmost importance of duties. Every superior is responsible for feedback and

appraisal and for recommendations and approval for promotions.

Hence, in more ways than one, the career graph of any employee is

dependent upon the attitude of the appraiser and the extent of his objectivity.

Therefore, to educate the appraisers about performance appraisal, it is

recommended that two-day workshop be held for them just before the

performance appraisal is due.

Not only will this workshop enhance and polish the appraisal and review skills of

appraisers, it will also educate them about the common errors that appraisers who

view their responsibility to appraise as an unnecessary additional to their

supervisory/managerial duties. A detailed two-day schedule for this suggested

training workshop for appraisers has been worked out.

4) BETTER APPROACH TO POTENTIAL APPRAISAL Performance

appraisal system has always a dual objective, visa, and employee evaluation

and employee development. Under HRD, the appraisal system lays greater

emphasis on the development of employees rather than on their evaluation.

This objective is better fulfilled by the potential appraisal system, which

tells about an employees capability to successfully assume a new role in

future following his promotion. Though it is different from performance

appraisal, which tells about an employees present performance in his

8/3/2019 JAGRITI3

80/86

existing job, it should be fully ingrained in the performance appraisal

system to be optimally effective.

5) After proper feedback and results of performance appraisal HR department

should go for necessary actions like increment, promotion and training etc.6) Performance management system also be improved by adopting a KRA

technique which is very successful method for appraisal

7) Before joining their jobs each trainee should be given proper induction so

that they could understand their job responsibilities.

8) Appraisal should be done half yearly for effective results.

9) Career development of employees should be given due consideration.

10) The information and the procedure of appraisal system should be

disseminated to each employee.

CONCLUSION

The management of JCT Limited is professional and tactfully managing its sales

force and the performance management system that are provided at JCT

PHAGWARA are appreciable and helpful in development of an employee. In spite

of all these successfulness of system still it require some improvement in system.

The methods of appraisal need to be revised and proper information about

performance appraisal system should be disseminated to each employee. The

congenial atmosphere should be provided to work force for effective results.

Company should also focus to the carrier development of employees. I am sure

that a company can touch more dimensions if it makes some more improvement.
