HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGEMENT

 INTRODUCTION:
Different terms are used to denote human resource management. They are:
Labour management, labour administration, labour-management relations, employee-
employer relations, industrial relations, personnel administration, personnel management,
human capital management, human asset management, human resource management and the.
Though these terms can be differentiated widely, the basic nature of distinction lies in the
scope or coverage and evolutionary stage. In simple sense, human resource management
means employing people, developing their resources, utilizing, maintaining and
compensating their services in tune with the job and organizational requirements.
Personnel management as defined by institute of all personnel management in the
U.K. and subsequently adopted by Indian institute of personnel management is as follows:
“Personnel management is a responsibility of all those who manage people as
well as being a description of the work of those who are employed as specialists. It is that
part of management which is concerned with people at work their relationships within an
enterprise. It applies not only to industry and commerce but to all fields of employment.”
This definition can be summarized as follows:
I. Personnel management is a responsibility of all line managers in an organization, viz.,
general manager, production manager, marketing manager, finance manager, etc., and
it is a staff function, i.e., it is the function of personnel manager who is appointed as a
specialist. Thus, all managers in the organizations are vitally concerned with
personnel management as they must achieve organizational goals through other
people’s efforts.
II. Personnel management is a part of management. This part is concerned with the
people and their relationship within an organization.
III. This applies to all organizations in the universe, i.e., economic, social, political,
religious, etc.
 RSMT VARANASI

Michael J. Jucius defined personnel management as “ the field of management which has to
do with planning, organizing, directing and controlling the functions of producing,
developing, maintaining and utilizing a lobour force, such that the-
 Objectives for which the company is establishes are attained economically and
effectively
 Objectives of all levels of personnel are served to the highest possible degree
 Objectives of society are duly considered and served.
According to Pulapa Subba Rao, Human Resource Management (HRM) is
managing (planning, organizing and controlling) the functions of employing, developing and
compensating human resources resulting in creating and developing human relations and
utilization of human resources with a view to contribute proportionately (due to them) to the
organizational, individual and social goals.
SUMMARY OF DEFINITIONS
The analysis of definitions on human resource management can be summarized as follows:
 HRM is concerned with employees both as individuals and as a group in attaining
goals. It is also concerned with behavior, emotional and social aspects of personnel.
 It is concerned with the development of human resources, i.e., knowledge, capability,
skill, potentialities and attaining and achieving employee goals, including job
satisfaction.
 HRM covers all levels (low, middle, and top) and categories (unskilled, skilled,
technical, professional, clerical and managerial) of employees. It covers both
organized and unorganized employees.
 It applies to the employees in all types of organizations in the world (industry, trade,
service, commerce, economic, social, religious, political and government
department). Thus, it is common in all types of organizations.
 Human resource management is a continuous and never ending process.
 It aims at attaining the goals of the organization, individual and society in an
integrated approach. Organization goals may include survival, growth and
development in addition to profitability, productivity, innovation, excellence, etc.
Individual employee-goals consists of job satisfaction, job security, high salary,
attractive fringe benefits, challenging work, pride, status, recognition, opportunity for
 RSMT VARANASI

development, etc. Goals of the society include equal employment opportunity,

protecting the disadvantaged sections and physically handicapped, minimization of
inequalities in the distribution of income by minimizing wage differentials the society
in general by organizing developmental activities, etc.
 HRM is a responsibility of all lines managers and a function of staff managers in an
organization.
 It is concerned mostly with managing human resources at work.
 HRM is the central sub-system of an organization and it permeates all types of
functional management, viz., production management, marketing management and
financial management.
 Human resource management aims at securing unreserved co-operation from all
employees in order to attain predetermined goals.
Human resources management (HRM) is an approach to the management of
people, based on four fundamental principles.
 First, human resources are the most important assets an organization has and their
effective management is the key to its success.
 Second, this success is most likely to be achieved if the personnel policies and
procedures of the enterprises are closely linked with, and make a major contribution to,
the achievement of corporate objectives and strategic plans.
 Third, the corporate culture and the values, organizational climate on the achievement
of excellence. This culture must therefore be managed which mean that continuous
effort, starting from the top, will be required to get them accepted and acted upon.
 Finally, HRM is concerned with integration of getting all the members of the
organization involved and working together with a sense of common purpose.
HRM is a strategic approach to the acquisition, motivation, development and
management of the organization’s human resources. It is a specialized field that attempts to
develop programmers, policies and activities to promote the satisfaction of both individual and
organizational needs, goals and objectives. It is devoted to shaping an appropriate corporate
culture, and introducing programmers, which reflect and support the core values of the enterprise
and ensure its success. The techniques for the application of HRM will include many familiar
functions of personnel managers, such as manpower planning, selection. Performance appraisal,
 RSMT VARANASI

salary administration, training and management development system, involvement commitment

and productivity.
HRM essentially and incorporate those expectations which are not being fulfilled
through the traditional personnel management. It integrates in a meaningful way the various sub
systems like performance appraisal, organization development, rewards, employee welfare and
quality of work life, industrial relations, human resources information and so on.
HRM is a production model approach to personnel management. The HRM model is
characterized as being employee oriented with an emphasis on the maximization of individual
skills and motivation through consultation with the work force so as to produce high levels of
commitment to company strategic goals. It is resource that has to be used to its fullest capacity. It
is an asset that has to be invested in. Human resource available to management in an
organization is Only one part of resources, which must be co-ordinate; it is through the combined
efforts’ of the people that material efforts, organization cannot accomplish their objectives.
 SCOPE OF HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGEMENT:
People in any organization manifest themselves, not only through individual sections but
also through group interactions. When individuals come to work place, they come with not only
technical skills, knowledge, etc., but also with their personal feelings, perception, desires,
motives, attitude, values, etc. Therefore, employee management in an organization does not
mean management of only technical skills but also with their personal feelings, perception,
desires, motives, attitude, values, etc. therefore, employee management in an organization does
not mean management of only technical skills but also other factors of the human resources (soft
skills and behaviours).
The scope of human resources management is vast. All major activities in the working
life of the employee from the time of his entry into the organization until he leaves and retires
come under the purview of human resources management.
The most important activity under taken are:
 Planning, job design, job analysis, procurement, recruitment, selection, induction,
placement, training and development.
 Compensation, reward, benefits, retrial benefits, medical and health care.
 RSMT VARANASI

 Motivation – Motivation aids, bonus, incentives, profit sharing non-monetary benefits are
esteem satisfaction, career development, growth, decision making, delegation of authority
and power, promotion etc.
 employee Relations-Grievance handling participation, collective bargaining and other
aspects of co-ordination relations conductive to mutual understanding and trust.
 NEED FOR HUMAN RESOURCESMANAGEMENT
Human Resources is demand necessary for all the organization for one or the other reason:
 To carry on its work, each organization needs personnel with the requisite qualification,
skills, knowledge, work experience and aptitudes for work they are provided through
effective man power planning.
 Since a large number of personnel have to be replaced to have grown old, or who retire,
die or become incapable because of physical or mental ailments, there is a constant need
for replacing such personnel otherwise, the work would suffer.
 Human Resources planning is essential because of frequent labor turnover which is
avoidable and even beneficial because it arises from factor which socially and
economically sound such as voluntary quits, discharges, marriages, promotion etc.,
 In order to meet the needs of expansion programmes which become necessary because of
increase in the demand for goods and service by a growing population a rising, standard
of living which calls for larger quantities of the some goods and services as also for new
goods.
 The nature of the present work in relation to its changing needs also necessitates the
recruitment of new labor.
 Man power planning is also needed in order to identify areas of surplus personnel and
areas in which there is a shortage of human resources.
 The objective of Human Resources Management is to maintain and improve the
organization ability to achieve its goals by developing strategies that will result in
optimum contribution of human resource.
 RSMT VARANASI

conduct research so on and so forth. However, the fundamental objective of any organizations is
growth and profits.

Institutions procure and manage various including human to attain the specified
objectives. Thus, human resources are managed to divert and utilize their resources towards and

and dignity of individual employees and having due concern for the socio-economic problems of
the community and the country.

A STUDY OF RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION

 RSMT VARANASI

RECRUITMENT:
Recruitment is distinct from employment and selection:
Once the required number and kind of human resources are determined, the
management has to find the places where required human resources or will be available and also
find the means of attracting them towards the organization before selecting suitable candidates
for jobs. All this process is generally known as recruitment. Some people use the term
‘recruitment’ for employment. These two not one and the same. Recruitment is only one of the

steps in the entire employment process. Some others use the term recruitment for selection.
These two terms are not one and the same either. Technically speaking the function of
recruitment precedes the selection function and it includes only finding, developing the sources
of prospective employees and attracting them to apply for job in an organization, whereas the
selection is the process of finding out the most suitable candidate to the job out of the candidates
(i.e., recruited). Formal definition of recruitment would give a clear cut idea about the function
of recruitment.
DEFINITIONS:
Recruitment is defined as, “a process to discover the sources of manpower to meet
the recruitments of the staffing schedule and to employ effective measures for attracting that
manpower in adequate numbers to facilitate effective selection of an efficient workforce.” Edwin
B. Flippo defined recruitment as “the process of searching for prospective employees and
stimulating them to apply for jobs in the organization.” Those definitions can be analysed by
discussing the processes of recruitment through systems approach.
OBJECTIVES OF RECRUITMENT
The objectives of recruitment are:
i. To attract people with multi-dimensional skills and experiences that suit the present and
future organizational strategies.
ii. To induct outsiders with a new perspective to lead the company.
iii. To infuse fresh blood at all levels of the organization .
iv. To develop an organizational culture that attracts competent people to the company.
v. To search or head hunt/head pouch people whose skills fit the company’s values.
vi. To devise methodologies for assessing psychological traits.
 RSMT VARANASI

vii. To seek out non-conventional development grounds of talent.

viii. To search for talent globally and not just within the company.
ix. To design entry pay that competes on quality but not on quantum.
x. To anticipate and find people for position that do not exit yet.

PROCESS OF RECRUITMENT
Process of recruitment consists of three sub-system in recruitment viz., sources of recruitment,
techniques of recruitment to attract the candidates and stimulating the candidates and stimulating
the candidates to apply. Below chart presents the recruitment process:

b. Developing suitable techniques to attract the desirable candidates and employing the
techniques to attract candidates.
 RSMT VARANASI

c. Stimulation as many candidates as possible and asking them to apply for jobs irrespective
of number of candidates required. Management has to attract more candidates in order to
increase selection ratio (i.e., number of applications per one job vacancy) in order to
select the most suitable candidates out of the total candidates available and due to lower
yield ratio. Recruitment is positive as it aims at increasing the number of applicants and
selection is somewhat negative as it selects the suitable candidates in which process the
unsuitable candidates are automatically eliminated. Though, the function of recruitment
seems to be easy, a number of factors make performance of recruitment a complex one.
EVALUTION OF RECRUITMENT PROCESS
The recruitment process has the objective of searching for and obtaining applications from job-
seekers in sufficient numbers and quality. Keeping this objective in mind, the evaluation might
include.
1. Return rate of applications sent out.
2. Number of suitable candidates for selection.
3. Retention and performance of the candidates selected.
4. Cost of the recruitment process.
5. Time lapsed data.
6. Comments on image projected.
EVALUTION OF RECRUITMENT METHODS
The evaluation of recruitment methods might include:
1. Number of initial enquiries received which result in completed application forms.
2. Numbers of candidates at various stages of the recruitment and selection process,
especially those shortlisted.
3. Number of candidates recruited.
4. Number of candidates retained in the organization after six months.

FACTORS AFFECTING RECRUITMENT

Both internal and external factors affect recruitment. The external factors include supply
of and demand for human resources, employment opportunities and unemployment rate, lobour
 RSMT VARANASI

market conditions, political, legal requirement and government policies, social factors,
information system, etc.
The internal factors include the company’s pay package including salary, fringe
benefits and incentives, quality of worklife, organizational culture, career planning and growth
opportunities, size of the company, company’s product/services, geographical spread of the
company’s operations viz., local, national or global, company’s growth rate of trade unions and
cost of recruitment.
COMPLEXITY OF THE FUNCTON OF RECRUITMENT
Performing the function of recruitment, i.e., increasing the selection ratio is not as
easy as it seems to be. This is because of the hurdles created by the internal factors and external
factors which influence on organization. The first activity of recruitment, i.e., searching for
prospective employees is affected by many factors like:
 Organizational policy regarding filling up of certain percentage of vacancies by
internal candidates;
 Local candidates (sons of soil);
 Influence of trade union;
 Government regulations regarding reservations of certain number of vacancies to
candidates based on community/region/caste/sex; and
 Influence of recommendations, nepotism, etc.
As such, the management is not free to find out or develop the source of
desirable candidates and alternatively it has to divert its energies for the sources within the limits
of those factors though it cannot find suitable candidates for the jobs. The other activity of
recruitment is consequently affected by the internal factors such as:
 Working conditions;
 Promotional opportunities;
 Salary levels, type and extent of benefits;
 Other personnel policies and practices;
 Image of the organization;
 Ability and skill of the management to stimulate the candidates.
It is also affected by external factors like:
 RSMT VARANASI

a. Personnel policies and practices of various organizations regarding working conditions,

salary, benefits, promotional opportunities, employee relations, etc.,
b. Career opportunities in other organizations; and
c. Government regulations. However, the degree of complexity of recruitment function can
be minimized by formulating sound policies.
SOURCES OF RECRUITMENT:-
The sources of recruitment can broadly be divided into tow categories, namely,
INTERNAL SOURCES:-
Promotion:- promotion of an employee always results in increase in responsibilities,
authority, salary and status of an employee concerned. It is generally a reward for outstanding
performance or because the organization desires to utilize an individual’s skills and abilities in a
better way.

Transfer :-Transfer of an employee from one position to another does not always result in any
change in the nature of his duties, responsibilities, authority, salary or status. However, it may
significantly affect the efficiency and morale of the employee, depending on the type of
environment where he has been transferred.
Employee referrals:- Employees working in an organization may also be the source of
recruitment. People who are known to and recommended by employees may be safely selected
for the job in the organization. An advantage of persons selected through this source is that they
will be loyal and dedicated to the organization. For any lapse or indiscipline on their part the
employees who recommended their names can be held responsible. But it may lead to favoritism,
nepotism and in breeding.
Job posting:- vacancies can be made open for all employees or selected section or department
of an enterprise by placing a notice on notice board giving information about the post vacant. All
those employees who feel themselves suitable and capable of meeting the post requirements can
apply for it.
 RSMT VARANASI

EXTERNAL SOURCES:-
An organization may tap any number of external sources to fill in its vacancies of personnel.
Important among these sources are as follows:
Advertising :- It is the widest spread source of external recruitment. It may be done by the
organization itself or through some agency. Newspaper, trade journals, radio, televisions etc are
good media to advertise for recruitment of skilled and professional workers. The media and the
contents of the advertisement should be selected keeping in view the persons to be reached and
the cost.While the details of vacancy for blue collared jobs (requiring manual skills) may be
listed on the notice board outside the factory gate or advertised in local newspapers and for
managerial and administrative personnel are advertised in national newspapers and periodicals.
Personnel consultants:- consulting firms act as middlemen between applicants and the
enterprise. They are specialized agencies which, after receiving requisitions from the client
companies, advertise the job description in leading national newspapers and periodicals without
disclosing the names of client companies. Applications received from the candidates are
duplicated and passed on to employees. Sometimes, such firms themselves screen, interview, and
select the candidates and, for a specialized period, also stand surely as regards their suitability for
the positions concerned.
Jobbers and Contractors:- It is quite common to engage jobbers and contractors to supply
workers for vacancies which are of a casual nature, or which may be filled at the factory gate
itself. In fact where the workers have to be hired at a short notice and without going through the
usual selection procedure, jobbers and contractors maintain close links with small towns and
villages which offer a
Ready and plentiful supply of unskilled workers. They also, sometimes at their own expense,
bring workers to the place of work.
Employment Exchanges:- They are set up by the Government to bring together people who
are in search of employment and the employers who are in the look-out for workers. They
register the names of the persons who require help in finding job. The employers intimate to
them the vacancies occurring in their organization. Employment exchanges are of great help in
recruiting persons for technical and clerical jobs.
 RSMT VARANASI

Educational institutions:- Schools, colleges and universities also offer opportunities to

employers to recruit students freshly passing out of these institutions. Many of them run
employment bureaus to assist employers in their recruitment effort. However, they can only
provide young and inexperienced workers, for which reason they rank much lower in the
employer’s list of sources of recruitment.
Field trips:- The enterprise may send out teams of experts to different towns and cities (even
villages) where the kinds of personnel needed by it may be found. But in this case, it becomes
necessity to give wide publicity to the dates, venue and time when such teams would interview
candidates at different places.
Unsolicited applicants:- These are persons who either gather at the factory gate to serve as
casual workers or reach the employers by letter, telephone, or in person, with request for
appointment against a real presumed vacancy.
MODERN SOURCES AND TECHNIQUES OF RECRUITMENT
A number of modern recruitment sources and techniques are being used by the corporate sector
in addition to traditional sources and techniques. These sources and techniques include walk in
and consult in, head-hunting, body-shopping, business alliances, and tele-recruitment.
i. Walk-In: The busy organizations and the rapid changing companies do not find time to
perform various functions of recruitment. Therefore, they advise the potential candidates
to attend for an interview directly and without a prior application on a specified date,
time and at specified place. The suitable candidates from among the interviews will be
selected for appointment after screening the candidates through tests and interviews.
ii. Consult-In: The busy and dynamic companies encourage the potential job seekers to
approach them personally and consult them regarding the jobs. The companies select the
suitable candidates from among such candidates through the selection process.
iii. Head-Hunting: The companies request the professional organizational to search for the
best candidates particularly for the senior executive positions. The professional
organizations search for the most suitable candidates and advise the company regarding
the filling up of the positions. Head-hunters are also called search consultants.
iv. Body Shopping: professional organizations and the hi-tech training institutes develop a
pool of human resources for the possible employment. The prospective employers
 RSMT VARANASI

contract these organizations to recruit the candidates. Otherwise, the organizations

themselves approach the prospective employees to place their human resources. These
professional and training institutions are called body shoppers and these activities are
known as body shopping. The body shopping is used mostly for computer professionals.
v. Business Alliances: business alliances like acquisitions, mergers, and take-overs help in
getting human resources. In addition, the companies do also have alliance in sharing their
human resources on ad-hoc basis.
It does mean that, the company with surplus human resources offers the
services of their employees to other needy organizations.
vi. E-Recruitment: The technological revolution in telecommunication helped the
organizations to used internet as a source of recruitment. Organizations advertise the job
vacancies through the world wide web (www) internet. The job seekers send their
applications through e-mail or internet. Alternatively, job seekers place their CVs in the
world wide web/internet, which can be drawn by the prospective employers depending
upon their requirements.
SELECTION:
Selection is defined as the mutual process whereby the organization decides whether or
not to make a job offer and the candidate decides whether or not to accept it.
After identifying the sources of manpower searching for prospective employees and
stimulating them to apply for jobs in an organization, the management has to perform the
function of selecting the right employees at right time. The obvious guiding policy in selection
in the intention to choose the best-qualified and suitable candidates for each unfilled spot and to
avoid commitments to those who will not work well.
NATURE OF SELECTION
Selection is the process of picking individuals (out of the pool of job applicants) with requisite
qualifications and competence to fill jobs in the organizations.
Although, some selection method can be used within an organizations for promotion
or transfer, this chapter focuses on selecting applicants from outside the organization.
 RSMT VARANASI

Recruitment and selection are the two crucial steps in the HR process and are often
used interchangeably. There is, however, a fine distinction between the two steps. While
recruitment refers to the process of identifying and encouraging prospective employees to apply
for jobs selection is concerned with picking the right candidates from a pool of applicants,
recruitment is said to be positive in its approach as it seeks to attract as many candidates as
possible. Selection on the other hand, is negative in its application in as much as it seeks to
eliminate as many unqualified applicants as possible in order to identify the right candidates. As
stated in the recruitment topic above the term recruitment is widely used to refer to the whole
process of employee hiring.
SELECTION AS A SOURCE OF COMPETATIVE ADVANTAGE
The role of selection in an organization’s is crucial for at least, two reasons.
First, work performance depends on individuals. The best way to improve performance is to hire
people who have the competence and the willingness to work. Arguing form the employee’s
viewpoint, poor are inappropriate choice can be demoralization to the individual concerned (who
finds himself or herself in the wrong job) and de-motivating to the rest of the work force
effective selections, therefore, assumes greater relevance.
Second, cost incurred in recruiting and hiring personnel speaks volume about
the role of selection. Here is one instance to prove how expensive recruitment has become pepsi
had gone on a crash recruitment drive. Six people from the company look over the entire oberoi
business center in Mumbai; 3000 applications in response to an advertisement issued earlier were
scanned; applicants were asked to respond by fax within 100 hrs; finally, the short listed persons
were flown and interviewed. Quite an expensive affair by any standard! In the US, it is much
more expensive. The cost of searching for and training a top level executive may run into $
250,000.
As was pointed out in the above recruitment topic consultants charge fees ranging
from 20 to 50 percent of the first year’s salary of an employee’s selected. Assuming a manager is
assured of a compensation of Rs. 2,00,000 in the retainers fee works out to be 40,000 to
1,00,000.
 RSMT VARANASI

ORGANIZATION FOR SELECTION

Until recently, the basic hiring process was performed in a rather unplanned manner in many
firms. In some companies, each department screened and hired its own employees. Yees. Many
managers insisted upon selecting their own people because they were sure on one else choose
employees for them as efficiently as they themselves could. Not anymore. Selection is now
centralized and is handled by the human resource department. The arrangement is preferable
because of the following advantage:
1. It is easier for the applicant because they can send their applications to a single
centralized department/agency.
2. It facilities contact with applicants because issues pertaining to employment can be
cleared through one central location.
3. It helps operating managers to concentrate on their operating responsibilities. This is
especially helpful during peak hiring periods.
4. It can provide for better selection because hiring is done by specialist trained in staffing
techniques.
5. The applicants is better assured of consideration for a greater variety of jobs.
6. Hiring costs may be cut because duplication of effort is minimized.
7. With increased government regulations on the selection process, it is important that
people who know about these rules handle a major part of the selection process.
Ideally, a selection process involves mutual decision making. The company decides whether or
not to make a job offer and how attractive the offer should be. The candidate decides whether or
not the firm and the job offer fit his or her needs and goals. In reality, the selection process is
highly one- sided. When the job market is extremely tight, several candidates will be applying
for a position, and the firm will use a series of screening devices to hire the candidate it feels is
most suitable. When there is a shortage of qualified workers, or when the candidate is a highly
qualified executive or professional who is being sought after by several companies, the firm
will have to sweeten its offer and come to a quicker decision.

TITLE OF THE PROJECT

“A Study on Recruitment and Selection process in BHEL.

INTRODUCTION

Recruitment and selection are two crucial steps in the human resources planning and are often
used interchangeably. There is however, a fine distinction between the two steps. While
recruitment refers to the process of identifying and encouraging prospective employees to apply
for the jobs, selection is concerned with picking the right candidates from a pool of applicants.
Recruitment is set to be positive in its approach as it seeks to attract as many candidates as
possible. Selection, on the other hand, is negative in its application in as much as it seeks to
eliminate as many unqualified applicants as possible in order to identify the right candidates for
the right jobs.
Therefore, the aim of every human resource manager is to fulfill the needs of an organization
with producing highly motivated employees.

Recruitment and Selection refers to the process of finding possible candidates for a job or
function, usually undertaken by recruiters. It also may be undertaken by an employment agency
or a member of staff at the business or organization looking for recruits. Advertizing is
commonly part of the recruiting process, and can occur through several means: through online,
newspapers, using newspaper dedicated to job advertisement through professional publication,
using advertisements placed in windows, through a job center, through campus graduate
recruitment programmes, etc.
