    Executive Summary

    Union Bank of India has become increasingly aware of the interest-surrounding employee

    engagement from both an academic and a business related point of view. As a consequence of

    | P a g e 5

    6/78

    this shift and its likely impact upon our clients, I undertook a piece of research to investigate

    this phenomenon, and identify practical steps that organisations can take to raise their employee

    engagement levels.

    Employee engagement is associated with many desirable outcomes, such as job satisfaction,

    intention to stay and job performance. Companies with a greater number of engaged employees

    typically have lower operating costs, higher customer satisfaction and higher profits. There is a

    tangible monetary benefit to companies investing time and resources in fostering higher

    engagement within their employees.

    The task of precisely defining employee engagement is still ongoing, but it is most often

    defined in terms of behaviour exhibited in the workplace. Engaged employees are prepared to

    go the extra miles in pursuit of workplace excellence. They are ambassadors for their

    organisations, who will speak highly of the company and its people, even when they are not in awork setting.

    An engaged employee is identifiable by workplace behaviour such as losing track of time as

    they are so absorbed in the task at hand. This is distinct from excessive overtime in order to

    give the impression of hard work. Both look the same, but one is productive for the employer-

    employee relationship and one is not.

    The research concluded that the job itself is a problem for union bank of India. Among other

    important findings are transparency of HR must be increased. Ideal psychometric profile for

    Union Bank employees and their motivational sources are also developed.

    1.1. Emerging trends in Indian Banking scenario:

    | P a g e 13

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    14/78

    India embarked upon economic reforms in 1991 after the Balance of Payments (BoP) crisis

    and some of the biggest impact of economic reforms was seen in banking sector which after

    several decades of Government ownership was thrown open to private enterprises and even

    foreign investments.

    In the earlier regulated environment , the role of Bank officials was largely restricted to

    complying with the rules or norms. However, economic reforms in general and banking sector

    reforms in particular have changed the scenario dramatically. With the field thrown open to new

    private sector and foreign banks, banks started feeling the impact of competition. Interest rates

    are deregulated; prudential norms are introduced and gradually sharpened; banks are now

    moving from capital adequacy to capital efficiency; risk management; management and

    mitigation concepts etc. are being refined to a great extent.

    Technology struck roots and is branching out into all areas of banking; customers are happily

    switching over to banks as there are ever so ready and eager takers with new competitive

    products to lure both retail and corporate customers with offers of service at the door step.Whether it is launching of new lines of business or opening or closing of branches or HR

    matters or mergers and acquisitions of other banks, todays Indian Banks have greater freedom.

    During the past two decades Banking in India has undergone a vast change.

    Customer satisfaction and customer loyalty play a key role in ensuring the business success

    today with market and competition becoming truly global in ever-changing business

    environment.

    The emerging banking scenario is highly competitive and organizations with competent

    people definitely surge ahead. The way people function in different roles has great implications

    on development of the organization.

    The Global Banking Industry needs to focus on:

    | P a g e 14

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    15/78

    Consolidation.

    Implementation of Basel II norms.

    Risk Management.

    Credit quality and Management of distressed assets.

    Corporate Governance.

    Technology.

    Funding the economic growth with inclusion.

    Creating Global Brands.

    Anti Money Laundering and KYC Norms.

    In short, learn the targeted strategies for

    Revenue Growth.

    Risk Management. Funding the Growth.

    Relationship Management.

    Gear up to the future challenges.

    Emerging Business Opportunity.

    Regulatory Compliance.

    Efficiency Enhancement.

    Now it is high time to think seriously of how to face the changing trends and maintain

    consistency. Can the bank face and accept it?

    1.2 Analysis of Union Bank of Indias position in context to emerging trends in banking

    scenario:

    Union Bank of India has shown improvement in many areas and is able to match to the

    emerging trends .As there is no end to perfection, Union Bank of India still has to improve in

    many areas to fulfil its vision, i.e. to become the Bank of first choice in our chosen areas by

    building beneficial and lasting relationships with customers through a process of continuous

    improvement. The bank have not been able to position in a large scale Union Bank of India

    Brand image in the minds of people. Competencies among the staff are below compared to

    other top banks. Leadership quality, taking initiatives, group interaction, job knowledge,

    sharing of knowledge, skills, taking responsibility, motivation, commitment, team building etc.

    are exhibited only by a few and not by majority. In many cases there is a wide gap between

    customers expectation level and actual level of satisfaction received by the customer. If these

    are all the hurdles then definitely there can be some strategies for overcoming these hurdles.

    LITERATURE REVIEW

    1.4 Employee Engagement and Satisfaction

    Engagement at work was conceptualized by Kahn, (1990) as the harnessing of

    Organizational members selves to their work roles. In engagement, people employ and

    Express themselves physically, cognitively, and emotionally during role performances. The

    second related construct to engagement in organizational behaviour is the notion of flow

    advanced by Csikszentmihalyi (1975, 1990). Csikzentmihalyi (1975) defines flow as the

    holistic sensation that, people feel when they act with total involvement. Flow is the state

    in which there is little distinction between the self and environment. When individuals are in

    Flow State little conscious control is necessary for their actions.

    Employee engagement is the thus the level of commitment and involvement an employee has

    towards their organization and its values. An engaged employee is aware of business context,

    and works with colleagues to improve performance within the job for the benefit of the

    organization. The organization must work to develop and nurture engagement, which

    requires a two-way relationship between employer and employee. Thus Employee

    engagement is a barometer that determines the association of a person with the organization.

    Engagement is most closely associated with the existing construction of job involvement Job

    involvement is defined as the degree to which the job situation is central to the person and

    his or her identity (Lawler & Hall, 1970). Kanungo (1982) maintained that job involvement

    is a Cognitive or belief state of Psychological identification. Job involvement is thought to

    depend on both need saliency and the potential of a job to satisfy these needs. Thus job

    involvement results form a cognitive judgment about the needs satisfying abilities of the job.

    Jobs in this view are tied to ones self image. Engagement differs from job in as it is

    concerned more with how the individual employees his/her self during the performance of

    his / her job. Furthermore engagement entails the active use of emotions. Finally engagement

    | P a g e 19

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    20/78

    may be thought of as an antecedent to job involvement in that individual who experience

    deep engagement in their roles should come to identify with their jobs.

    When Kahn talked about employee engagement he has given important to all three aspects

    physically, cognitively and emotionally. Whereas in job satisfaction importance has been

    more given to cognitive side.

    HR practitioners believe that the engagement challenge has a lot to do with how employee

    feels about the about work experience and how he or she is treated in the organization. It has

    a lot to do with emotions, which are fundamentally related to drive bottom line success in a

    company. There will always be people who never give their best efforts no matter how hard

    HR and line managers try to engage them. But for the most part employees want to commit

    to companies because doing so satisfies a powerful and a basic need in connect with and

    contribute to something significant.

    | P a g e 20

    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.

    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 every opportunity. Every day,

    actively disengaged workers undermine what their engaged co-workers accomplish. As

    workers increasingly rely on each other to generate products and services, the problems and

    tensions that are fostered by actively disengaged workers can cause great damage to an

    organization's functioning .

    Factors Leading to Employee Engagement-

    Studies have shown that there are some critical factors which lead to Employee engagement.

    Some of them identified are

    Career Development- Opportunities for Personal Development

    Organizations with high levels of engagement provide employees with opportunities to

    develop their abilities, learn new skills, acquire new knowledge and realise their potential.

    When companies plan for the career paths of their employees and invest in them in this way

    their people invest in them.

    Career Development Effective Management of Talent

    | P a g e 22

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    23/78

    Career development influences engagement for employees and retaining the most talented

    employees and providing opportunities for personal development.

    Leadership- Clarity of Company Values Employees needs to feel that the core values for

    which their companies stand are unambiguous and clear.

    Leadership Respectful Treatment of Employees

    Successful organizations show respect for each employees qualities and contribution

    regardless of their job level.

    Leadership Companys Standards of Ethical Behaviour

    A companys ethical stand also lead to engagement of an individual

    Empowerment

    Employees want to be involved in decisions that affect their work. The leaders of high

    engagement workplaces create a trustful and challenging environment, in which employees

    are encouraged to dissent from the prevailing orthodoxy and to input and innovate to move

    the organization forward.

    Image

    How much employees are prepared to endorse the products and services which their

    company provides its customers depends largely on their perceptions of the quality of those

    goods and services. High levels of employee engagement are inextricably linked with high

    levels of customer engagement.

    Other factors

    | P a g e 23

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    24/78

    Equal Opportunities and Fair Treatment

    The employee engagement levels would be high if their bosses (superiors) provide equal

    opportunities for growth and advancement to all the employees

    Performance appraisal

    Fair evaluation of an employees performance is an important criterion for determining the

    level of employee engagement. The company which follows an appropriate performance

    appraisal technique (which is transparent and not biased) will have high levels of employee

    engagement.

    Pay and Benefits

    The company should have a proper pay system so that the employees are motivated to work

    in the organization. In order to boost his engagement levels the employees should also be

    provided with certain benefits and compensations.

    Health and Safety

    Research indicates that the engagement levels are low if the employee does not feel secure

    while working. Therefore every organization should adopt appropriate methods and systems

    for the health and safety of their employees.

    | P a g e 24

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    25/78

    Job Satisfaction

    Only a satisfied employee can become an engaged employee. Therefore it is very essential

    for an organization to see to it that the job given to the employee matches his career goals

    which will make him enjoy his work and he would ultimately be satisfied with his job.

    Communication

    The company should follow the open door policy. There should be both upward and

    downward communication with the use of appropriate communication channels in the

    organization. If the employee is given a say in the decision making and has the right to be

    heard by his boss than the engagement levels are likely to be high.

    | P a g e 25

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    26/78

    Family Friendliness

    A persons family life influences his work life. When an employee realizes that the

    organization is considering his familys benefits also, he will have an emotional attachment

    with the organization which leads to engagement.

    Co-operation

    If the entire organization works together by helping each other i.e. all the employees as well

    as the supervisors co-ordinate well than the employees will be engaged.

    Engagement rules

    Engagement cannot be a corporate initiative. Employee engagement happens only When

    you remove barriers to work, and those barriers are unique to every work group. We often

    think that incredibly important corporate initiatives will transform our organizations into

    places where everyone will come to work and want to be more engaged . Corporate

    initiatives cant make the magic. Thats why all those other HR fads did not work in the

    past. Thats why employees wait for the latest fads to be over. Corporate initiatives live out

    their life and then go away. The people who deliver the corporate initiatives have to make

    engagement happen, and those people must be your managers. We are good at providing

    managers with engagement scores, but we are not quite so good at giving them things that

    they can use to change engagement. In order for engagement to be something other than a

    fad, we need to be specific in helping managers , and our solutions have to be customized to

    help each individual manager.

    Impact of Employee Engagement on Employees

    How to measure Employee Engagement?

    Step I: Listen

    The employer must listen to his employees and remember that this is a continuous process.

    The information employees supply will provide direction. This is the only way to identify

    their specific concerns. When leaders listen, employees respond by becoming more engaged.

    This results in increased productivity and employee retention. Engaged employees are much

    more likely to be satisfied in their positions, remain with the company, be promoted, and

    strive for higher levels of performance.

    Step II: Measure current level of employee engagement

    Employee engagement needs to be measured at regular intervals in order to track its

    contribution to the success of the organisation. But measuring the engagement (feedback

    through surveys) without planning how to handle the result can lead employees to disengage.It is therefore not enough to feel the pulsethe action plan is just as essential.

    Step III- Identify the problem areas

    Identify the problem areas to see which are the exact areas, which lead to disengaged

    Employees

    Step IV: Taking action to improve employee engagement by acting upon the

    problem areas

    Nothing is more discouraging to employees than to be asked for their feedback and see no

    movement toward resolution of their issues. Even the smallest actions taken to address

    concerns will let the staff know how their input is valued. Feeling valued will boost morale,

    motivate and encourage future input. Taking action starts with listening to employee

    feedback and a definitive action plan will need to be put in place finally

    Importance of Engagement

    Engagement is important for managers to cultivate given that disengagement or alienation is

    central to the problem of workers lack of commitment and motivation. Meaningless work is

    often associated with apathy and detachment from ones works .In such conditions,

    individuals are thought to be estranged from their selves. Other Research using a different

    resource of engagement (involvement and enthusiasm) has linked it to such variables as

    employee turnover, customer satisfaction loyalty, safety and to a lesser degree,

    productivity and profitability criteria .An organizations capacity to manage employee

    engagement is closely related to its ability to achieve high performance levels and superior

    business results. Some of the advantages of Engaged employees are

    Engaged employees will stay with the company, be an advocate of the

    company

    and its products and services, and contribute to bottom line business success.

    They will normally perform better and are more motivated.

    There is a significant link between employee engagement and profitability.

    They form an emotional connection with the company. This impacts their

    attitude towards the companys clients, and thereby improves customer

    satisfaction and service levels

    It builds passion, commitment and alignment with the organizations

    strategies

    and goals

    A highly engaged employee will consistently deliver beyond expectations. In the workplaceresearch on employee engagement (Harter, Schmidt & Hayes, 2002) have repeatedly asked

    employees whether they have the opportunity to do what they do best everyday. While one

    in five employees strongly agree with this statement. Those work units scoring higher on

    this perception have substantially higher performance.

    Thus employee engagement is critical to any organization that seeks to retain valued

    employees. The Watson Wyatt consulting companies has proved that there is an intrinsic

    link between employee engagement, customer loyalty, and profitability. As organizations

    globalize and become more dependent on technology in a virtual working environment, there

    is a greater need to connect and engage with employees to provide them with an

    organizational identity.

    33/78

    2.1 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

    Research methodology is design to solve the problem. In research methodology, we not only talk of

    the research method but also consider the logic behind the method. The purpose of the methodology

    is to describe the research procedure. It includes the overall design, the sampling procedure, me

    -thods of data collection, and methods of analysis and interpretation procedure.

    Thus the present study has been conducting in following order:

    Defining research topic

    Developing information source

    Collecting data

    Analysis of data

    Presenting the findings

    2.2 RESEARCH DESIGN

    Acc. to PAULEN V YOUNG Research design is a logical and systematic planning & deriving a

    piece of research. The design results from translating general specific model into various research

    procedures.

    A research design is the arrangement of conduction for the collection & analysis of the data

    in the manner that aims to combine relevance to the research with economy in procedure. The

    | P a g e 33

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    34/78

    research design is a conceptual with in which the research is conducted. It constitutes the method

    for collection, measurement and analysis of data.

    The research design for this research was exploratory. It seeks to discover new

    relations.

    2.3 RESEARCH OBJECTIVE

    The purpose of research is to discover answers to the question through the applications of scientific

    procedures. The main aim of research is to find out the truth which is hidden and which has not

    been discovered as yet.

    The research objective for this research was to develop the strategy for employee engagement and

    employee satisfaction in Union bank of India.

    2.4 RESEARCH INSTRUMENTS

    After the determination of research objective and the information needed the next step is to decide

    about the research conducted or data collection method.

    DATA COLLECTION: various methods of data collection are being use for the study these are-

    Primary data collection

    Secondary data collection

    In primary data collection, you collect the data yourself using methods such as interviews and

    questionnaires. The key point here is that the data you collect is unique to you and your research

    and, until you publish, no one else has access to it. There are many methods of collecting primary

    data and the main methods include:

    | P a g e 34

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    35/78

    Questionnaires

    Interviews

    Focus group interviews

    Observation

    Case-studies

    Diaries

    Critical incidents

    Portfolios.

    Questionnaires

    Questionnaires are a popular means of collecting data, but are difficult to design and often require

    many rewrites before an acceptable questionnaire is produced

    Interviews

    Interviewing is a technique that is primarily used to gain an understanding of the underlying reasons

    and motivations for peoples attitudes, preferences or behavior. Interviews can be undertaken on a

    personal one-to-one basis or in a group. They can be conducted at work, at home, in the street or in

    a shopping centre, or some other agreed location

    Case-studies

    The term case study usually refers to a fairly intensive examination of a single unit such as a person,

    a small group of people, or a single company. Case studies involve measuring what is there and how

    it got there. In this sense, it is historical. It can enable the researcher to explore, unravel and

    understand problems, issues and relationships. It cannot, however, allow the researcher to

    generalize, that is, to argue that from one case-study the results, findings or theory developed apply

    to other similar case-studies.

    Diaries

    | P a g e 35

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    36/78

    A diary is a way of gathering information about the way individuals spends their time on

    professional activities. They are not about records of engagements or personal journals of thought!

    Diaries can record either quantitative or qualitative data, and in management research can provide

    information about work patterns and activities.

    Critical incidents

    The critical incident technique is an attempt to identify the more noteworthy aspects of job

    behavior and is based on the assumption that jobs are composed of critical and non-critical tasks.

    For example, a critical task might be defined as one that makes the difference between success and

    failure in carrying out important parts of the job. The idea is to collect reports about what people do

    is particularly effective in contributing to good performance. The incidents are scaled in order of

    difficulty, frequency and importance to the job as a whole.

    Portfolios

    A measure of a managers ability may be expressed in terms of the number and duration of issues

    or problems being tackled at any one time. The compilation of problem portfolios is recording

    information about how each problem arose, methods used to solve it, difficulties encountered, etc.

    b.) Secondary Data

    All methods of data collection can supply quantitative data (numbers, statistics or financial) or

    qualitative data (usually words or text). Quantitative data may often be presented in tabular or

    graphical form. Secondary data is data that has already been collected by someone else for a

    different purpose to yours. For example, this could mean using:

    Data supplied by an organization

    Company MIS

    Government statistics.

    | P a g e 36

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    37/78

    For the collection of data a structured questionnaire was design as per the objective of research. To

    collect the primary data questionnaire method is adopted because it best suited to the purpose of

    research.

    Questionnaire Mainly Serve Three Functions:

    - Translated the research objective into specific question which respondent could

    answer.

    - Helped in recording the reality and also recorded the attitude and opinion of

    respondent.

    - Large numbers of respondent could be concluded, hence proved to be a time saving

    effort.

    SAMPLING PLAN

    UNIVERSE- The first step in developing a sample design is to clearly define the set of objects,

    technically called the universe. The universe in this research includes the employees of regional

    office of UBI.

    SAMPLING TECHNIQUE- This was used to cover the large range of employees.

    SAMPLING UNIT- A decision has to be taken concerning a sampling unit before selecting sample.

    Sampling unit in this research are-

    Regional Office Employees

    Branch Employees

    | P a g e 37

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    38/78

    SAMPLE SIZE- This refers to the no. of items to be selected from the universe to constitute a

    sample. The size of sample should neither be excessively large, nor too small. It should be optimum.

    The sample size of this research was 198.

    2.5 Limitations Of Study

    The research was conducted within a limited duration. So a detailed and comprehensive

    study could not be made.

    The sample was confined to 198 respondents. So this study cannot be regarded as full

    proof one.

    Some respondents hesitated to give the actual situation; they feared that management

    would take any action against them.

    The findings and conclusions are based on knowledge and experience of the respondents

    sometime may subject to bias.

    positive feedback etc both from their job and from their organization does not play any major

    role in engaging employees in Union Bank of India.

    3. Distributive justice i.e. the reward, recognition, transfer, promotion etc given by the

    organization plays the least significant role as far as attrition is concern.

    4. Job Characteristic plays the most important role as far as Job Engagement and

    organizational Engagement is concern. Job characteristic constitutes of

    A. Autonomy

    B. Task Significance

    C. Feedback

    D. Task Identity

    E. Skill Variety

    5. As far as promotion, transfer, rewards are given employees in Union Bank of India value

    how things are given more than what is given i.e. consistency and transparency in systems,

    policies is more important.

    6. Perceived organizational support plays a major role in organizational commitment in

    union Bank of India.

    | P a g e 55

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    56/78

    7. Organization plays a very significant role as far as providing job autonomy, opportunity to

    use different skills, feedback is concern. In Union Bank of India employees believe

    immediate supervisor does not have much power and freedom to provide them with intended

    job dimensions.

    8 In union Bank of India employees do not leave their job because of lack of autonomy,

    significance or variety in the job. The most important factor for leaving the job is procedural

    justice i.e. the transparency and consistency in the system.

    9. Also employees in Union Bank Of India feel valuable when their goals, opinion is

    strongly considered and employee well being is taken care of by both organization and

    supervisor. Lack of this kind of care and affection lead to attrition.

    10. Instrumental motivation has no correlation with job or organizational engagement i.e.

    salary, bonuses can never make your employees engaged. But it certainly has high negative

    correlation with job satisfaction and very high positive correlation with intention to quit.

    It also states that for satisfying employees high salary, bonuses, perks are important but those

    readily do not translate to performance.

    11. Employees of Union bank of India are highly satisfied with the current training

    programme, staff welfare schemes, other facilities which are provided by the bank but

    | P a g e 56

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    57/78

    employees feel on the job training would be more suitable for imparting skill and knowledge

    rather than class room training.

    SUGGESTION AND

    CONCULSION

    4.1 SUGGESTIONS:

    Job Redesign in Union Bank of India:

    The most important step needs to be taken is redesigning the present jobs employees are

    Involved in.

    The major steps required for job design is

    1. Providing employees in Union Bank of India with more autonomy to perform a job

    | P a g e 58

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    59/78

    2. Creating Task Significance i.e. designing the job in such a way that it fulfils employees

    ego.

    3. Quick and Accurate Feedback about the task performed.

    4. Providing Task Identity

    5. Skill Variety i.e. designing the job in such a way that employee can use their different

    skills at different time.

    Job redesign can be achieved by:

    1. Job Rotation

    2. Social Activities

    3. Quality of Work Life Programs

    4. Job Enlargement

    5. Job Enrichment

    6. Knowledge of Results

    7. Vision creation

    8. Goal Setting

    9. Empowerment in mission development

    When introducing job redesign-type programs, the following three questions should be

    asked:

    Do employees need jobs that involve responsibility, variety, feedback, challenge,

    | P a g e 59

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    60/78

    Accountability, significance, and opportunities to learn?

    Yes, they need it, according to the survey,

    What techniques can be implemented without changing the job-classification plan?

    What techniques would require changes in the job-classification plan?

    In assessing the organizations readiness for Japanese-style management or quality-of work

    life programs, a company should answer these questions:

    * Do individuals want to work in teams to solve problems or make decisions?

    * Do employees need jobs that involve responsibility, variety, feedback, challenge

    accountability, significance, and opportunities to learn?

    * Do workers need to learn and grow in the organization, to be part of its identity, and to

    assist in its corporate future?

    * What organization-structure adjustments are needed to respond to these design

    suggestions?

    * How should the job-classification plan be altered to respond to these structural changes?

    We have used the following procedure in organizations that have been reluctant to begin

    large-scale job-design programs:

    1. Define the systems goals. Select the organization, system, or subsystem to be studied.

    Define which groups of workers will be involved and how they relate to each other.

    What are the broad objectives of the larger organization - the department, plant, and

    company - of which these jobs are a part?

    | P a g e 60

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    61/78

    How is the organization structured to accomplish these goals?

    What is the current job-classification structure?

    2. Define the relevant tasks and activities.

    What work tasks lead to the accomplishment of the organizations objectives?

    What unique managerial or personal skills are required?

    What unique needs and aspirations do workers in these jobs have? Managers should keep

    in mind the function of the organization and the need to balance social and technical

    requirements.

    2. Interview. In conducting a job analysis, an analyst gets information from the following

    Sources: direct observation or on -the-job experience; interviews with job incumbents and

    their supervisors; meetings with higher-level management and human resources

    representatives; questionnaires or checklists completed by job incumbents, their supervisors,

    and/or others familiar with the job; psychological tests and ratings of requirements; and other

    sources of available information such as training manuals and existing job guides. The

    primary goal is to obtain a rough idea of what the job consists of. We have learned to rely on

    a process of open-ended interviewing to probe about the job and the many underlying human

    elements making it up. Each social system is unique, and much of the information about

    worker preferences can best be derived from such interviews.

    4. Define the unique characteristics or constraints. Each organization has particular

    characteristics or constraints, such as the age of the work-force, the work setting, and the

    job-classification plan. These characteristics should be identified.

    | P a g e 61

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    62/78

    5. Develop a clustering of tasks. How do work tasks and personal skills cluster on the basis

    of similar behaviour or common requirements? Which tasks may be meaningfully grouped

    together and defined as a job?

    6. Develop a list of intervention techniques. In devising such a list, it is helpful to pick the

    techniques that are considered relevant based on the approaches defined in this article.

    7. Relate techniques to requirements and assumptions. Managers can brainstorm to develop a

    list of techniques and principles that may be appropriate for the job clusters.

    8. Define the appropriate level of implementation. Managers should clarify how each

    technique should be implemented in the organization.

    9. Pull it together in a picture. At this stage it is sometimes useful to draw a picture of what

    has been accomplished thus far.

    10. Screen generalities. Screen the list of techniques to eliminate generalities or vague

    statements that do not specify implementation plans.

    11. Develop a process of implementation. The process of implementation is as important as

    the theory of design. It is important to define the forces that may aid implementation and

    those that may hinder it. It is also necessary to screen the list of design techniques for those

    that cannot be implemented without changing the job-classification plan.

    A separate process of implementation is required for job-classification plan changes.

    12. Adapt the job description and process of design. The job description and process should

    be reviewed and altered as the organizations critical requirements change.

    | P a g e 62

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    63/78

    Along with that, Internal Job Posting (IJP) must be introduced so that employees can apply

    for their desired job profile without letting their immediate supervisor know about it. Internal

    Job Posting also must be supported by Internal Recruitment Drive.

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    64/78

    Effectively communicate upper management support

    Upper managers are closely identified with the organization and therefore contribute

    substantially to POS.

    Application: Upper-level Managers should indicate positive valuation of employees and

    concern with their welfare through various public acts

    Supervisor Support

    indicate a strong concern for employees welfare and thus have a considerable positive

    influence on POS.

    and avenues of appeal.

    Maximizing the Benefits of POS

    | P a g e 64

  • 7/30/2019 Ashvin A

    65/78

    POS will most benefit the organization if felt obligation and affective commitment are

    focused on organizational priorities.

    Application: Socialization of newcomers should emphasize the organizations short-term and

    long-term objectives.

    Application: Periodically assess employees knowledge of organizational priorities to be sure

    they are being effectively disseminated.

    Application: Find ways to recognize and reward employee loyalty and dedication. Make

    these rewards meaningful to employees.

    At the time of joining, Individual Development Plan (IDP) must be chucked out to fulfils

    employees individual goal and ambition. Every year organization must take care of updating

    the IDP. At the year end, evaluation of IDP must be conducted and certain weightage in

    performance appraisal must be devoted for IDP fulfilment.

    A buddy program for employees newly transferred and weakly frees health check up facility

    will be appreciated as organizational support.

    personality types beforehand.

    Informal feedback session with the supervisor must be conducted to build the supervisor

    subordinate relationship.

    Anonymous feedback about the supervisor must be conducted twice a year. Gap analysis

    between the expectation of the subordinates and the supervisor actual performance must be

    conducted.

    4.2 Conclusion

    Achieving an engaged workforce may take some time, but managers do have many tools to

    help them get there. Employees are more satisfied when they believe they are responsible for

    identifying and satisfying the needs of the customers, and when they believe the organization

    have the best interests of its customers in mind. Once employee satisfaction is achieved,

    managers will find comfort knowing employee engagement is close at hand. Both

    satisfaction and engagement have direct effects on customer behaviour and, hence, both

    indirectly influence an organizations financial performance. The project identified the key

    drivers of employee satisfaction: intention to quit, job and organizational engagement and

    Organizational commitment.

    Armed with this knowledge, the organization must identify the most relevant and task

    oriented tools to specifically address the problems. Managers can now move one step closer

    to closing the gap between employee engagement and financial success.
