PREFACE

Fundamental changes are taking place in India particularly during last 10

years. The thrust of the changes have been to make the economy “outward

looking “.this has meant a near complete departure from the policies which

the Govt has been pursuing since independence .Infact the wings of changes

were being observed right through the eighties but liberalization and

outward looking park of this period, which mainly encouraged imports for

domestic consumption was rather ill conceived. It did however; one the

outcome of the policies was that there opened up the debate and in a way

prepared the Govt industry and trade unions for the urgency of undertaking

reforms.

This policy, however, did not address itself to the problems of industry

and industrial relations. Despite this, the contents of the policy became

controversial. In 1991, the economy situation particularly in the adverse

balance of payments reached a level of cries proportions and the then Govt

had to pledge goal to meet its immediate import requirements. Subsequently,

new economic policies (NEP) were formulated. Some of the imp ones were

the devaluation of rupee, intro of new industrial policy, trade and fiscal

reforms leading to casing of import & export restriction &full convertibility

of rupee. These policies have affected the fundamentals of the growth

strategy & the imp attached to the factors of production i.e. capital & labour

which in turn has changed the entire fabric of labour relations in industry.

We have just entered into the new millennium, which is likely to bring its

own share of new opportunity, new circumstances &

4

Page 5: Hindusthan Zinc Ltd Work Life Balance

new challenges, although there are multitude of changes, some of the imp

ones that the are prepared to face are –Build-up of resource, environment,

research development,, quality assurance, rapidly changing business world,

product development, human resource management & public relations.

Keeping all the points in mind the HINDUSTAN ZINC LIMITED is

taking steps by adopting the work life balance survey to overcome the

shortages and dissatisfaction level of the employees to achieve the goals of

the company for becoming a successful industry. I have tried my level best

to study the work level of the employees in HZL.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

HINDUSTAN ZINC LIMITED was established from

the erstwhile metal Corporation of India (MIC) on 10th January 1966

as public sector undertaking. In April 2002, the government of India

disinvested its majority stake in HZL, and it became a part of fast

growing Sterlite group. The existing plant at Chanderiya was

established in year 1989.

This plant obtains raw materials from mines at Zawar

mines, Rampura Agucha mines and Dariba mines. Hindustan zinc ltd.

Operates smelters based on pyrometallurgical and hydrometallurgical

(Chanderiya lead zinc smelter, Debari and Vizag zinc smelters)

process routes. Now HZL is associated with brand group Vedanta.

Vedanta is India’s only integrated zinc producer. The zinc business of

Vedanta is managed with in Hindustan zinc limited.

STUDY OF PRESENT PROCEDURE RELATED TO

THE EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION in CLZS and to know how much

they are satisfied with the company is the main objective of this

project. The responses of employees were collected through series of

questionnaires. I have used structured questionnaire for the analysis of

the same.

A systematic approach is essential for any project work.

Each and every step must be planned in such a manner that it leads to

next step. The scope of the study was restricted to the organization.

Page 7: Hindusthan Zinc Ltd Work Life Balance

All the employees were taken for taken into account for the study. A

sampling was done on random basis and sample size was 450

employees. There are some limitations to this process which might be

having some kind of effect over the conclusions derived from the

study.

TIME OFFICE

OFFICE PROCEDURE

Function: 5.1.0 PAY ROLL:-

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

attendance, leave, overtime, basic pay and allowances payable.

5.1.1 ATTENDANCE:

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

reporting for duty punches his card in the punching machine to record

his incoming time. In case of workman out punching is also required

to record the time of leaving the plant. The time so recorded in the

punching machine is captured in the machine in the PC installed in the

Time Office.

After punching the card at the time of reporting for duty, the employ

reports duty in his department. The department sends the attendance

of all the employees reporting in the shift in the prescribed format.

The attendance so received is cross checked with the punching and in

the case of discrepancy the matter is reported for clarification.

The average number of workers daily employed should be calculated

by dividing the aggregate number of attendance on working days (i.e.

man-days worked) by the number of working days in the year. In

37

Page 38: Hindusthan Zinc Ltd Work Life Balance

reckoning attendance, attendance by temporary as well as permanent

employees should be counted and all employees should be included

whether they are employed directly or by contractors. Attendance on

separate shifts (nights and day shifts), should be counted separately.

Days on which the factory was closed for whatever cause and days on

which manufacturing processes were not carried on should be treated

as working days. Partial attendance for less than half a shift or more

such a day should be treated as full attendance.

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

the muster roll.

5.1.2 LEAVE:-

Employees availing leave apply for leave in the prescribed form and the

leave application signed by the sanctioning authority is sent to Time Office.

Time Office maintains a leave register for Privilege Leave and a leave

register for sick leave, casual leave and optional holidays. It is checked that

the leave applied for is in order as per the rules; there is a leave in balance in

the account of the employee. If so, then the entry is made in the leave

register and the leave is marked in the muster roll in the appropriate column.

38

Page 39: Hindusthan Zinc Ltd Work Life Balance

TYPES OF LEAVES:-

SICK LEAVE

Every workman shall be entitled to 10 days sick leave on full pay in a

year, with a right to accumulate up to 120 days. Entitlement and grant

of sick leave will be regulated.

CASUAL LEAVE

Every workman in regular pay scale will be entitled to 8 days casual

leave in a full calendar year on pro-rate basis.

NATIONAL AND FESTIVAL HOLIDAYS

Eight holidays which include 5 Festival holidays and 3 National

holidays falling on 26 January, 15 August, and 2 October will be

given in a year to each workman. Festival holidays will be declared in

WORK LIFE BALANCE

INTRODUCTION

Work life balance is a person’s control over the condition in their

workplace. It is accomplished when an individual feels dually satisfied about

their personal life & their paid occupation.

It mutually benefits the individual, business and society when a

Person’s personal life is balanced with his or her own job.

“Work to live. Don’t live to work”

It’s important to balance your work and home life. The right to ask for

flexible working aims to help employers and workers agree on work patterns

that suit everyone find out what flexible working is and how to apply for it.

Work-life balance has become one of the top items on the agenda of

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

DEFINITION

Work life –balance is about people having a measure of control over when,

where and how they work. It is achieved when an individual’s right to a

fulfilled life inside and outside paid work is accepted and respected as the

norm, to the mutual benefit of the individual, business and society.

The best way of approaching Quality of life measurement is to measure the

extent to which “people happiness requirement are met.” without which no

member of the human race can be happy.

55

Work life balance in CLZS: ---

According to CLZS the work life balance survey is done once in every year

and they try to know whether their employees are satisfied with company,

56

Page 57: Hindusthan Zinc Ltd Work Life Balance

work, salary, etc. they also try to know the problems of their employees and

try to solve them as soon as possible.

I have visited the Pyro and Ausmelt Plant and have surveyed for HOD’s

(Ausmerlt, civil office, and store dett. lab and pyro office.) etc. The data has

been put together, compiled up, analyzed and I have arrived to a conclusion

which has been discussed below.

In the whole process I have received full support from all teams & co-

operation for obtaining better results. I acquired good knowledge about the

level of satisfaction of employees in company

The feedback received from employees mainly stressed on the point that

they will be further motivated if they are provided with basic amenities &

increased level of quality of work life. They feel that their work life will

further be upgraded if they get proper canteen facilities, drinking facilities,

wash houses etc.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Research methodology is a way to systematically solve the research

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

scientifically.

TYPES OF RESEARCH:-

Descriptive research is also called Statistical Research. The main goal of

this type of research is to describe the data and characteristics about what is

being studied. The idea behind this type of research is to study frequencies,

averages, and other statistical calculations. Although this research is highly

accurate, it does not gather the causes behind a situation.

Exploratory research is a type of research conducted because a problem

has not been clearly defined. Exploratory research helps determine the best

research design, data collection method and selection of subjects. Given its

fundamental nature, exploratory research often concludes that a perceived

problem does not actually exist.

Exploratory research often relies on secondary research such as reviewing

available literature and/or data, or qualitative approaches such as informal

discussions with consumers, employees, management or competitors, and

more formal approaches through in-depth interviews, focus groups,

projective methods, case studies or pilot studies.

60

Page 61: Hindusthan Zinc Ltd Work Life Balance

Observational research techniques solely involve the researcher or

researchers making observations. There are many positive aspects of the

observational research approach. Namely, observations are usually flexible

and do not necessarily need to be structured around a hypothesis (remember

a hypothesis is a statement about what you expect to observe).

A wide ranging set of research techniques aimed at observing consumers

interacting naturally with their surroundings including products and services

in use. A key advantage of observation research is that often the respondant

or consumer is unaware that they are being observed, allowing thir

behaviour to be observed naturally

Types of Observations:

Direct (Reactive) Observation

In direct observations, people know that you are watching them. The only

danger is that they are reacting to you. As stated earlier, there is a concern

that individuals will change their actions rather than showing you what

they're REALLY like. This is not necessarily bad, however.

Unobtrusive Observation:

Unobtrusive measures involves any method for studying behavior where

individuals do NOT know they are being observed (don't you hate to think

that this could have happened to you!). Here, there is not the concern that the

observer may change the subject's behavior. When conducting unobtrusive

61

Page 62: Hindusthan Zinc Ltd Work Life Balance

observations, issues of validity need to be considered. Numerous

observations of a representative sample need to take place in order to

generalize the findings. This is especially difficult when looking at a

particular group. Many groups posses unique characteristics which make

them interesting studies. Hence, often such findings are not strong in

external validity. Also, replication is difficult when using non-conventional

measures (non-conventional meaning unobtrusive observation).

Observations of a very specific behaviors are difficult to replicate in studies

especially if the researcher is a group participant (we'll talk more about this

later). The main problem with unobtrusive measures, however, is ethical.

Issues involving informed consent and invasion of privacy are paramount

here. An institutional review board may frown upon your study if it is not

really necessary for you not to inform your subjects.

RESEARCH DESIGN: ---

A research design is the arrangement of conditions for collection and

analysis of data in a manner that aims to combine relevance to research

purpose with economy in procedure .In fact research design is the

conceptual structure with in research constitutes the blue print for the

collection, measurement and analysis of data.

The research design which I used was though convince basis. It

was non-probability technique.

62

Page 63: Hindusthan Zinc Ltd Work Life Balance

DATA SOURCES:

The source from where data can be acquired is known as data source. Other

researchers did data collection with a review of previous research .In this

there are basically two method of collection of data.

Primary data collection.

Secondary data collection.

Primary data:-

The primary data are theses which are co elected a fresh and for

the first time and thus happen to be in original in character.

In this research project primary data is the response from

employees of HZL.

Secondary data: ---

Published data are the secondary data. I took some information

by the book published in HZL

Data instrument: ---

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

definite order on a form or set of form”

63

Page 64: Hindusthan Zinc Ltd Work Life Balance

I have a structured questionnaire for analysis. Structured questionnaire is

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

questions.

TYPE OF OUESTIONS: ----

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

limited number of alternative responses from which he is to select the one

that most closely matches his opinion.

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

respondent to answer it in his own words & which does not bind the

respondent to select an answer amongst a set of alternatives.

Sample procedure:-

Random sampling is the sampling procedure in which the researcher’s

randomly selected there sample.

Sample size here I look the sample on random basis and the sample size

was taken of450 employees.

64

Page 65: Hindusthan Zinc Ltd Work Life Balance

INTERPRETATION OF DATA

The total numbers of samples taken were 72 and the sample consists of all

employees & employees’ wife. The above 72 samples were divided into

2below mentioned categories:-

1. Employees. (Of service in HZL)

2. Employees’ wife.

23 questions have been analyzed and the detail analysis of each question is

given below.

Copy of the questionnaire is attached in

Annexure A: Employees

Annexure B: Spouses

Tools used to analyze the collected data:-

The analysis was both theoretical and statiscal, graphical representations

were also considered.

The graphical presentation is used with “pie chart” to analyze the data.

Following steps are used in survey:-

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

framed on the basis of the conditions, basic requirements and rules of

the company etc.

65

Page 66: Hindusthan Zinc Ltd Work Life Balance

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

and Functional Head and interviewed them.

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

5. Then we analyzed and interpreted the data and prepared the chart

format for the found result.

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

actions to be taken.

In this way we completed the whole survey and came to know the

level of balance between work and life at work place as well as in

their family.

66

Conclusion

The over all outcome that can be drawn from the employees interview is that

generally they employee are not able to establish a proper setup between

their work & family life. For instance 98% employees firmly believe that

they are running lack of time to be able to enjoy all the recreational facilities

available in the colony but there are some employees who are able to deal

properly with the time management & are spending almost 3-4 hours with

their children on a routine basis all we need to do is improve the efficiency

of the individuals during the working hour so that one shall not have to stay

back.

One more point observed that today’s world is more on a track of

materialistic gain, for instance a higher side of ladies gives more value to the

material objects rather to the life of peace, enjoyment, leisure. Although the

wives believe that their husband’s are not able to contribute much of their

time towards the family’s demands but they are managing with it.

91

Page 92: Hindusthan Zinc Ltd Work Life Balance

The final conclusion had drawn from the graphs shows that the HZL

employees are more or less able to establish a balance between their work

and the family during the course of their work in this organization.

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

appraisal time or they have a feeling that their achievements are not given a

proper count and attention.

LIMITATION RECOMMANDATION / SUGGESTION

Some executives also have a feeling that they are overloaded with their

routine jobs which is not allowing them to establish proper Work-Life

Balance.
