1. Introduction

In the age of Globalization, where the survival is a question mark

for the industries growth and development of the organization, depends

only on the employee relations with management. A company with strong

employee relations gets the benefit, because their employees are highly

motivated to expand their best efforts. In exchange, the employees expect

to be treated fairly and recognized for the achievements.. To develop and

sustain relation, employers must keep employees informed of company

policies and strategies. That way, employee can learn new behaviors or

skills as needed and understand the workings of the firm more fully. In

addition employers must have policies that allow employees to discuss

problems with or communicate important information to company

representatives that can fully respond effectively.

HR specialists play a crucial role in employee relations. If they

develop communication policies and procedures that apply appropriate

communication tool in a timely manner, employees can access more

abundant, higher quality information and can work in partnership to

ensure that the communication policies and procedures bolster employee

relations.

Good employee relations involve providing fair and consistent

treatment to all employees, so that they will be committed to the

organization. Companies with good employee relations are likely to have

an HR strategy that place a high value on employees as a stakeholder in

the business. Employees who are treated as stakeholders have certain

rights within the organization and can expect to be treated with dignity

and respect.

To enhance this idea one such measure that management can take

to enhance the employee relation is through the various welfare measures.

The welfare facilities are designed to take care of the well being of the

employees, but they do not usually result in any monetary benefit. It is

desirable to recollect the services of a typical worker in this context.

Again the employee welfare is that the facilities help to motivate and

retain employees. Most welfare facilities are hygiene factors, which,

according to Herzberg, create dissatisfaction if not provided. Remove

dissatisfaction, place the employee in a favorable position or mood,

provide satisfiers, then motivation will take place. Welfare facilities,

besides removing dissatisfaction, help develop loyalty in workers towards

the organization.

2. DESCRIPTION OF THE FIELD & METHODOLOGY:

2.1 Introduction:

The status of methodology in any research work is of cardinal

significance. Methodology is the systematic and sequential operation of

steerage of scientific social survey and research. A proper planning and

methodology helps the researcher in drawing valid and logical inferences.

It would be tough to understand the principle and the contents of research

without an appreciation of the method we designate as scientific.

“Research Design” stands as an adjustment set by various pragmatic

consideration that are needed for a social research, it is not an exclusive

proposition to be strictly followed, but some what a beacon light for the

researcher to proceed in correct line of march. Thus, social research has

been defined as, “a critical and exhaustive investigation having as its aim

the revision of accepted conclusion in the life of newly discovered facts”.

Methodology involves the formulation of the problem and way to

arrive at the conclusion. The research is designed in such a way that the

conclusion and analysis of data will enable the researcher to arrive at a

conclusion. It would be difficult to comprehend the nature and content of

a research without an appreciation of the method. As Karl Pearson says,

“The scientific method is one and the same in all branches of science and

that method is the method of all logically trained minds. The unity of all

science consists along in its methods”.

2.7 Methodology, Research Design :

Methodology refers to the methods allowed to arrive at a

Conclusion.

A study or research design is a plan comprising of the researcher’s

decisions about the procedures, sampling, collection and analysis of data

for a given study, which aims to fulfill the purpose without wasteful

expenditure of time, energy and money. It is economical in the long run

because, it forestalls the possibility of a fruitless inquiry. It differs

according to the research purpose and its categorized under four groups,

viz. (1) Exploratory, (2) Description, (3) Diagnosis, and (4)

Experimentation.

In the present study, exploratory cum descriptive study design has

been followed.

2.8 Sampling:

Sampling is the smaller representation of the larger whole. It is the

representation of the universe in miniature. Sampling method is

economical in terms of time, money and energy. Detail study is possible

due to contact with every sample units and it has a scientific base. There

are only two requirements of the sampling procedure: It must be

38

Page 39: MBA Thesis - Copy NEW

representative and adequate, there are different methods of sampling such

as random sampling, stratified sampling, purposive sampling etc.

In the present study 50 workers were selected at random from the

universe. The researcher personally met the respondent by asking them

various questions regarding their own life, relationship with the

management and their involvement in trade unions.

2.9 Tools & Data Collection:

Having drawn adequate samples from the universe the next step of

research was collection of data regarding the various aspects of the study.

There are several tools of data collection like Observation, Case study,

Interview schedule, Questionnaire etc.

Here the interview schedule has been used as the main tool for data

collection, and side by side observation in a non-participant way.

Interview is the development of precision focus reliability is

another common social act conversation. The objections of interview may

be exchange of ideas and experiences, eliciting information pertaining to

a wide range of data in which the interviewer may wish to rehearse his

past, define his present and canvas his future possibilities. It is a mutual

view of each other. According to P.V. Young, “Interview may be

regarded as a systematic method by which a person enters more or less

imaginatively, into the life of a comparative stranger. In interviewing the

interviewee, we make use of the interview schedule. Interview schedule

39

Page 40: MBA Thesis - Copy NEW

consists of a number of questions which the interviewer himself has to

ask and fill up after getting information from the respondents.

While applying interview schedule, the researches made use of the

observation technique in a non-participant form. Although, the external or

non-participant observer is not welcomed to the group, but, he can

maintain a distance without involving into the group situation. It gives the

way for a more systematic study. So while interviewing the respondents

the researcher observed the behaviour, facial expression, without

participating in group situation.

The Interview Schedule deals with the socio-economic background

or the bio-data of the respondents, the service history of the respondents

and finally the opinion / views regarding training they are receiving from

the organization.

A heap of collected data serves no purpose for any study as it does

not give any specific information or knowledge. So in order to derive

proper information, the collected data must be interpreted and analysed

which in turn involves a number of tasks like classification and

tabulation.

In classification, the collected data were arranged in different

groups on the basis of their similarities. In the present study, the data

collected have been classified on the basis of their different education

level, caste, type of family income etc.

40

Page 41: MBA Thesis - Copy NEW

The next step is tabulation. For this purpose the researcher has

placed some data in different tables to find out the number of frequency

and percentage of each group.

Information collected from both the sources i.e. primary and

secondary.

i) Primary:

Some data collected by observing employees and asking questions

are called primary data. For collection of primary data, questionnaires

were prepared depending on category of personnel involved. It is a form

containing some questions which are to be filled by respondent.

ii) Secondary

Secondary data are collected both from published and non-

published sources, Published sources include magazines, bulletins,

memoranda, pamphlets etc… Non-published sources include official

files, record, log books etc. Booklets quarterly reports, annual reports,

journals, records of the Company are also used. Text books, published

and non-published project reports are also referred for proper

understanding of study.

2.10 Difficulties encountered:

The experience during the field work has left an indelible

impression and was both a bitter and sweet one. The respondents were

41

Page 42: MBA Thesis - Copy NEW

personally contacted and duly told what it was all about. Some of the

respondents were very co-operative and even agreed for formal

interviews, whereas some respondents failed to understand the essence of

data collection and refused to give time for the interview as they were

busy with their work.

2.11 Conclusion:

“Training & Development” find its vital role in recent decade. And

every industry for its survival must have to embrace “Training &

Development” and try to absord its good results in day-to-day working

and use its side effects in a constructive purpose. Hence, one month

period was very short to study. “Training & Development” and its

effectiveness in a quality concerned industry. Period was very short again

to watch the same group of workers before training and after it.

The present study undertaken by the researcher suffers from some

limitations. The sample drawn was on random basis and can not be

generalized. The data collected only from 50 respondents do not differ

any valid ground for drawing generalization.

3. SOCIO-ECONOMIC BACK-GROUND OF THE

RESPONDENTS:

3.1 Introduction:

The caste, religion, occupation and life experiences of an

individual are crucial in determining how one will think and act in

different situations. Individuals are substantially affected, by nature and

mechanism of socialization, family background and socio-economic

attitude set up which in turn affect their attitudes, ways of training and

philosophy of life.

In other words the implicit assumption is that the beliefs,

role, perception and behaviour learned as a result of social antecedent and

the social environment in which one is brought up are more influential in

determining the extent of role commitment and role performance. The

chapter seeks to identify the socio-economic profile of the 50 respondents

of Mahanadi Coalfields Limited, Burla of Sambalpur District of Orissa

43

Page 44: MBA Thesis - Copy NEW

State in terms of their Age, sex, occupation, income, educational

qualification.

All the data relating to the socio-economic background of

the respondents have been represented in the tabular form.

3.2 Age & Sex:

Age reveals the experience on as gained about life. An individual’s

working capability and strength is known from his age. It is a temporary

concept as we all know. “Time and tide waits for none”, similarly with

the passage of time an individual age also grows and a time comes when

the individual decays.

The following table reveals the age composition of 50

respondents.

within 10-15 and 5 (10%) lie above 15 years group. Hence majority of

respondents belong to the 10-15 years group.

3.5 Education:

47

Page 48: MBA Thesis - Copy NEW

Education is the important means of socialization and one of the

basic activities in all human societies. Anderson is of the view that

“education is the social process by which an individual learns the things

necessary to fit him to the life of his society”. It is the process whereby

the social heritage of a group is passed on from one generation to another

and whereby the child learns the rules of social behaviour. It is an attempt

to shape the development of the coming generation in accordance with

the social ideals of life.

Hence, it is necessary to know the educational background of the

respondents. It is depicted in the following table.

TABLE – 3.5

were under matric, 10 (20%) were educated upto Matric, 3 (6%) were

intermediate, 20 (40%) were graduate and 15 (30%) were above

Graduation. Hence, majority of respondents were educated.

3.6 Conclusion:

As the study has been conducted in the semi-urban area of Burla of

Sambalpur district in Orissa, the place of resident of all the respondents is

semi-urban. The respondent’s age group is ranging from 25 to 50 years. It

is a male dominated industry. The education level of the respondents is

very good. Majority of them, that is, nearly 40% were graduate.

The socio-economic background of the respondents reveals that,

majority of the respondents are males, well educated and have got

experience in their service field. .

4. HISTORY OF FAMILY SERVICE:

4.1 Introduction:

Family plays the first and most important role in formulating the

career of an individual. It mostly depends on the background of the

family, which affects the behaviour of the human beings. It is seen that a

good and peaceful family always provides a better platform for the

members to perform well in every sphere of his life. Similarly,

family having bad reputation accordingly reflects otherwise.

4.2 Fa Fa :

The record of service of the parents of the respondents is also

notable in order to reach into a state of mind about their position and

psychological attachment to the organization. The table shows the history

of service of the parents group in the organization.

The above table shows that, out of 50(100%) respondents, father of

25 (50%) were in service, whereas mother of 10 (20%) were in service

and both father and mother of 10 (20%) were in service.

4.4 Father:

Father is the pivotal member of a family. He is in charge of the

livelihood of the family. All the major decision of the family is taken by

him. His position determines the status of the family. The ideology of a

father is injected to the next generation. It is found that if the father of a

respondent was an employee of the organization, his economical

condition is better than others and the respondents has got proper

education and are well established in the society.

4.5 Conclusion:

The History of family service provides a clear picture about the

position of the individual at present. The father and mother of whose

51

Page 52: MBA Thesis - Copy NEW

respondents are in service, his economical condition is much better, but

sometimes they have been neglected in their building a good career, due

to absence of both father and mother in the home. Where the father is the

only service holder and mother is a house-wife, it is found that such

family are very peaceful as well as very successful.

*******

5. HISTORY OF SERVICE OF THE RESPONDENTS:

5.1 Introduction:

History is the past record. The history of Service record confirms

the background of the person. The more the service period, the more the

experience gained in the respective field. About experience, one can say

it is gradually achieved through the passage of time. Hence, History of

service is essentially required to be noted, to reach at a more concrete

conclusion.

5.2 History of Service:

In the present study, it was found that the some respondents before

joining MCL, were engaged in different organizations. And in

comparison, their experience in dealing and discharging official work is

better than those who were initially in MCL.

52

Page 53: MBA Thesis - Copy NEW

Hence, it is necessary to know the History of Service of the

respondents. It is depicted in the following table.

TABLE – 5.1

History of Service of the 50 respondents

Organisation No. %

MCL 25 50%

Public Sector 3 6%

Govt. Sector 7 14%

Private Sector 15 30%

TOTAL 50 100%

The above table shows that, out of 50(100%) respondents, 25

(50%) were in MCL from the beginning, whereas 3 (6%) from Public

Sector, 7 (14%) from Govt. Sector and rest 15 (30%) from Private Sector.

Hence, 50% were from outside organization, before joining MCL.

5.4 Reasons and Change:

When asked about the reasons for changing / switching over to

MCL from other organizations, majority of respondents answered in

53

Page 54: MBA Thesis - Copy NEW

terms of better salary and facilities in MCL in comparison to other Govt.

and Private sector. It is also noted that the respondents who were in

private sector, got the service in MCL on rehabilitation scheme. Hence,

they chose to join MCL and left the private organization obviously.

5.5Conclusion :

We can derive from the aforesaid facts that better emoluments and

facilities can attract people from other sectors. Moreover, in this process,

an organization is benefited in getting more experienced people. In the

present organization, more persons from private sectors have joined not

from Govt. Sectors.

6. ENTRY IN MCL:

6.1 Introduction:

MCL is a Coal Producing Company. The target of Coal production

has now surpassed 110 MT, which is a huge task. The primary steps for

producing coal is acquisition of Land, where coal can be excavated. The

land may be both forest land as well as cultivable and residential land of

the land owners. To acquire forest land, the company has to approach the

Govt. for mining purpose on the same and is dealt accordingly as per the

Forest Land Act. However, for acquisition of private land, there is lot of

difficulties faced by the company. Before acquiring the private land,

proper rehabilitation of the inhabitants and nearby villagers are required

to be done. As per the rule, the company has to provide service to the

family members of the land owners accordingly to their size of land.

Hence, people get appointment through rehabilitation scheme. In order to

get technical staff to run the company, MCL through open advertisement,

also appoints various staff in various discipline/cadre.

54

Page 55: MBA Thesis - Copy NEW

6.2 Type of Entry:

As discussed, there are two types of entry in MCL i.e. direct entry

through open recruitment and Rehabilitation entry through land

acquisition policy. There is also another entry on medical ground/death

case, whereby due medical unsuitability or death of the employees, their

children get employment, as per terms of the company.

The above table shows that, out of 50(100%) respondents, 10

(20%) got the job in MCL by direct recruitment, whereas 30 (60%)

through rehabilitation scheme on losing their land and rest 10 (20%) on

medical ground/death case of their father. Hence, majority of 60%

entered MCL through Rehabilitation scheme.

6.4 Years & Change of Service in MCL :

The years of service refers the length of service the respondents

have already put in the organization. This shows the experience in their

55

Page 56: MBA Thesis - Copy NEW

respective service career. The following table reveals the years of service

of the 50 respondents.

within 10-15 and 5 (10%) lie above 15 years group. Hence majority of

respondents belong to the 10-15 years group.

6.5 Conclusion:

MCL is a coal producing industry. Land acquisition is always a

major problem in the coal industry. Proper rehabilitation and resettlement

of the people is a challenge for the company. In the rehabilitation scheme,

the land owners are offered job in the industry in lieu of their lands in

addition to cash compensation. Hence, the majority of employees of MCL

have got service through rehabilitation scheme.

field they are deficient.

Invite recommendations from the employees themselves relating to

their respective areas of concern.

The management should ensure that the planning of providing

important training not only be put on paper but also should be practiced

so that the employees be trained and motivated to the new works.

Employees also on the other hand try to cooperate with the

management in times of delay in ensuring any kind of training facilities

so that smooth and effective relations are developed between them.

For better result of T&D programme the management should

80

Page 81: MBA Thesis - Copy NEW

9. CONCLUSION

The training and development facility provided by MCL can be truly

measured by the level of knowledge and skill being experienced by their

employees. Survey analysis and data interpretation have proved to be a

yardstick in the process of measurement and the degree of development.

The entire project has showed that the employees of this organization

are quite satisfied by the training facility being extended to them.

Training and Development courses are beneficiary to the employees of

the MCL.

The employees of the MCL are very much satisfied by the given

training facilities. The workers, supervisors, clerks and officers are

getting the initial, promotional and refresher trainings from time to time

according to the situations and needs, which improve the performance of

81

Page 82: MBA Thesis - Copy NEW

the employees, to help them how to cope up with the changing strategies,

providing them knowledge about the modern machines. The training is

helping them in getting the respective knowledge needed for the

respective work necessary ability needed for that work and last but not

the least the skill needed to perform the work and complete it

successfully. However a greater degree of effort is needed on the part of

the management to provide technical & educational benefits to the

employees such as providing more and improved knowledge about the

upcoming machines launched in the market for their benefit so that when

they will be said to use it, they wouldn’t face any difficulty and assessing

them with the required knowledge needed for the respective post.

Therefore to conclude it can be said that the MCL needs to extend

its training and development courses facilities to a great extent so that it

can ensure greater training facility and development of the employees to

reap greater rewards and profits.
