industry.
1. SELF CONTROL:
If you are naturally friendly and outgoing you are more likely to be successful
working in a hotel. Being able to deal with all kinds of guests and visitors combined
with a keenness to serve them with a genuine smile is an asset.
While working in the hotel, you should be prepared to do any kind of job if the
circumstances demand it. Dignity of labour is one of the first lessons youll have to
learn. It is possible; you'll discover along how much more satisfying it is to work
with one's own hands
You need good mental and physical stamina to survive the long and odd working
hours. Moreover, you may have to spend most of your working day on your feet,
especially on busy days. You are required to be in good health all the time.
You are more likely to be confident if you are well groomed, neat, polite and have an
easy way with people. An impressive and pleasing appearance is always a plus point
in public relations.

6. READY SMILE AND CHEERFULNESS:
A smile Its a universal welcome which has no language, it tells others that there is
a caring, sharing person in you and as hospitality personnel you are never fully
dressed without a smile.
8. TEAM SPIRIT:
In hospitality industry you are always working as part of a team, which needs your
help, co-operation and willingness to listen to others. You must be flexible and
accommodating and enjoy working as part of a team.
9. SELF DISCIPLINE:
Just about every item in a hotel can be useful; there can be lot of temptation to carry
out small things for personal use. You must be able to resist such temptation, and be
honest and sincere at your job.
Working in hotels is always demanding and only those works hard and sincere can
hope to rise in their career. An employee, who works willingly is always noticed by
the management and is likely to go places.
Self motivation is a very important attribute which can take you to greater heights
of success in life. In fact, it is this quality which will help you to enjoy even the
most menial job. Most people who succeed in life are highly motivated. They work
with great enthusiasm, take initiative and do not mind learning even from their
subordinates

holding high positions in life. You will discover that if you remain poised, composed
and at ease in the company of such people you'll do your job better. Being self-
confident will enable you to deal with people of all kinds.

A hotel job involves working with people all the time. Therefore, it will be a great
asset for you and the hotel, if you are an impressive talker and can interact with
people smoothly and gracefully. Good command over one or more languages will be
an added advantage.
15. METICULOUSNESS:
You must have an eye for detail and ensure that everything is in order up to the last
detail. The job will demand that you be aware, observant, alert and alive to all that
happens around you.
These are the two qualities to cope and deal effectively with new situations and
difficulties that may arise. You must be able to think and react quickly without
breaking down under pressure or running to your seniors for help and guidance all
the time.
Working in a hotel requires a creative and imaginative mind. There will be occasions
when you will need to use your artistic sense, like- for table layout, flower
arrangements, room decor, etc.

Ultimately, the role of the training coordinator is to oversee all professional development at
our company.
31
Tasks Performed by Training Coordinators
People who work as training coordinators typically work in corporate human resources or
training departments, or for companies that provide corporate training and services. Depending
on the size of the organization and how much the company emphasizes employee development
activities, the training coordinator may be part of a team or may be the only person who handles
training duties for the company.
Needs Assessment
Training coordinators may conduct a needs assessment that determines what types of training
should be provided to employees. This includes identifying gaps between the skills of individual
employees and what they need to be able to do. It may also include analyzing the skills that the
workforce as a whole needs to allow the organization to move forward toward accomplishing its
strategic goals and objectives.
Teaching
Training coordinators typically teach a variety of classes. Depending on the company, they may
teach employee orientation sessions, computer classes, management training sessions, and more.
They also often provide train-the-trainer sessions for internal subject matter experts in order to
help them develop the instructional skills necessary to share what they know with others in the
company.
Outsourcing
Companies often have training needs that are best met by bringing in an external training
company, using online or video training solutions, or sending employees to off-site training
classes. In these cases, the training coordinator may be responsible for finding the best options,
choosing a provider, and scheduling sessions.
32
Scheduling
Training coordinators are responsible for developing a calendar that details what type of training
opportunities are being offered. This includes a combination of internal training classes and
opportunities to attend classes that are delivered by external training companies. Coordinators
provide information regarding what classes are being offered, what participants can expect to
learn, what prerequisites are necessary, and where classes will be held.
Marketing
When training programs are scheduled, training coordinators are responsible for marketing the
available opportunities to employees. This may include posting a schedule on the company's
intranet, creating and posting flyers in common areas and appropriate departments,
communicating with managers about the benefits of sending workers to classes, and using other
promotional strategies.
Assessment
Companies that devote resources to employee development activities expect to see a return on
their investment. Training coordinators are responsible for assessing and reporting training
effectiveness to upper management. This includes determining the impact of training on
employee skills as well as assessing how it affects key performance indicators and the bottom
line itself.
Budget Management
Companies that have a formal training program typically establish a budget that must be
followed. The person who is in charge of training is responsible for making sure that training
expenditures do not exceed the budgeted amount.
Facility Management
If the company has classrooms dedicated to training activities, the training coordinator is
responsible for keeping track of when the spaces are in use and ensuring that no double-booking
problems occur.
Equipment Management
The training coordinator is usually responsible for managing any equipment that the company
uses for training purposes. This may include computer equipment, LCD projectors, simulation
models, and other equipment necessary to deliver the types of training that the company provides
to its employees.
33
Necessary Skills
Because there are so many different types of responsibilities associated with training coordinator
positions, individuals who work in these types of jobs need to have a broad skill base to draw
from. In addition to having teaching skills, training coordinators must be able to handle a wide
variety of administrative duties and project management tasks. This type of job requires strong
interpersonal communication abilities, the ability to multitask, and outstanding organizational
skills.
Credential Requirements
While there isn't a specific licensure requirement to work as a training coordinator in most
industries, many companies strongly prefer to hire people who have degrees in related fields as
well as experience teaching adult learners. Appropriate educational backgrounds may include
fields of study like instructional design and development, business, communication, human
resource management, and similar disciplines. In some cases, employers prefer to hire training
coordinators who have specific experience in the industry.
34
Responsibilities

36
The objectives of training and development are not limited to just increasing productivity and
efficiency, but the busy market and ceaselessly active competition of today, demands much more
than that from organizations. Its all thanks to the conditions that a company faces and the race of
growth that has made the addition of new skills and improvement of the existing skill-set,
which is an extremely important aspect of a business.
Below are the 7 main objectives of training and development that must be in your mind as
business, especially HR student.
Increased Productivity
Quality Improvement
Learning time Reduction
Safety First
Labour Turnover Reduction
Keeping yourself Updated with Technology
Effective Management
Increased Productivity
For any company, keeping the productivity at its peak is as important as getting in new
customers for business. Since even a slightest of the disturbance can take the business to the
brink of huge losses. Moreover, to tackle with the immensely growing competition in the target
market, it is important for one to increase the productivity of its workers while reducing the cost
of production of the products. So, thats where the training comes as a savior of the company,
jumps in the scenario and takes it out of the dangers bravely.
Training takes the current capabilities of the workers of a brand, polishes it and makes them
learn and devise new and effective methods of doing the same thing, in a repeated manner. In
other words, the training, if done in a proper way, can give your business a whole new look with
a much powerful base as experienced workers at its core.
37
Quality Improvement
Improving the quality of the product is obviously one of the main objectives of training and
development since its not like those times when customers werent such quality conscious.
Todays customer knows whats better for him and whats not. Simply said, those old methods of
some sweet talk and business wont work for much long, because once they know the reality
behind the curtains through the services and products quality, they will leave the company as it is
without giving it, even, a second thought.
Just think of it as if you and your competitor are competing for the same service with some
difference in quality but at the same price, it is obvious that they will choose the one who is
better at handling the task without any quality degradation. Even if your price is a little higher,
then it is most likely the case that most of the customers will come to you.
Learning time Reduction
Keeping an eye on the learning capabilities of employees, and providing them the help which
they need, can be highly beneficial in longer runs. This capability of theirs is what that
determines how quickly an employee grabs the newly discovered fact and so, shape the future
products on this discovery. The weaker the capability, the harder it is to learn. But this scenario
can also be supported by the usage of proper learning material and experienced instructors who
prefer real-life experience than cramming. So, reducing the learning time is also one of the main
objectives of training and development.
Safety First
Safety of anyone, either he is a worker, an officer or even a customer, is not something that can
be taken lightly, especially in cases, where one knows that even a minute mistake can even lead
to life threats. Therefore, providing the knowledge, for using the equipment in a proper way and
creating the life-friendly product, also belongs to one of the major objectives of training and
development. The higher, the employees are better at handling equipment, the better it is both for
the company and for the workers.
On the contrary, training ensures that the company doesnt need to turn over its workforce again
and again because it prepares the employees to face any situation which proves helpful in
bringing in the feeling of workers. Therefore, the workforce feels safe and secure at a particular
job.

Keeping oneself Updated with Technology
Computers and mobile phones are the miracles of the past but the world of today is far more
advanced than that. Its time for latest technologies capable of connecting the world in just a
blink of an eye. Now, earthlings are trying to reach far off planets to get information about the
life force present there. Newer technologies are rolling in and we could continue to list it down
but we havent got time for that.
Training and education to the employees keep them updated with the latest of the additions to the
technologies, methods, techniques and processes. Since it also opens a new gateway for them to
look for a way which is greater in productivity and efficiency but decreases the need of manual
work immensely.
For example, spraying of pesticides and herbicides to keep the crop healthy and safe from
invaders with the help of a hand pump is a lot more tiresome work than it would be with the help
of a semi-automated machinery. But how can workers know that such a type of machinery is
available in a market, which cuts the time needed in the matter of hours instead of days, without
any update on whats going on around the globe?
Effective Management
One of the primary objectives of training and development process is to give rise to a new and
improved management which is capable of handling the planning and control without any
serious problem. With the knowledge and experience gathered through training, acting as the
guiding light for this newly shaped management, it lets them handle the tough decisions and
confusing realities thus opening the way for bigger and better opportunities for business for the
cause of the brand.

INTRODUCTION
Human Resource Management (HRM) is the function within an organization that focuses
on recruitment of, management of, and providing direction for the people who work in the
organization. HRM can also be performed by line managers.
HRM is the organizational function that deals with issues related to people such as
compensation, hiring, performance management, organization development, safety, wellness,
benefits, employee motivation, communication, administration, and training.
HRM is also a strategic and comprehensive approach to managing people and the
workplace culture and environment. Effective HRM enables employees to contribute effectively
and productively to the overall company direction and the accomplishment of the organization's
goals and objectives.
HRM is moving away from traditional personnel, administration, and transactional roles,
which are increasingly outsourced. HRM is now expected to add value to the strategic utilization
of employees and that employee programs impact the business in measurable ways. The new role
of HRM involves strategic direction and HRM metrics and measurements to demonstrate value.
Staffing is the core component of HRM. Staffing is about setting guidelines and
procedures to guide recruiting and placement. The presence of these staffing procedures will aid
in the effective advertising and reaching out to potential employees. On top of this, the person
interviewing and selecting new staff should be able to identify candidates who are suitable for
the various roles. The interview should be structured to ensure the success of the interview
process as well as the candidate selection.
Apart from hiring new employees, staffing also involves the management of existing
employees. It touches on issues like disciplinary matters, monitoring of leave, absences and
health and safety. Letting employees go is also covered under staffing. Therefore, an
organization needs a robust system needs to make sure that all these elements are covered.
Another key element of HRM is retention. The training of employees to enable them to
improve their career paths is very important. In some situations where an employee is
undergoing through a difficult time in his or her life, an effective Human Resource Department
(HRD) should offer suggestions for support and counseling where appropriate.
42
Remuneration packages and perks that are associated with the package an employee has been
offered also fall under the remit of the HRD. Good HRM policies ensure that there are structures
in place which show the pay levels for the different positions in an organization. It is important
for the staff to know the career and pay that is available to them. This is important for both
during the time of employment as well as for their career progresses over time.
Another key component of HRM is performance management. The reason for this is that
many employers use it to assess career progression and to determine pay increases. When a good
performance management policy is in place, effective targets can be set and monitored regularly.
These records are crucial when staffing levels need to be reduced or disciplinary proceedings are
instituted.
The ultimate focus of HRM is the people within an organization. Regular planning,
monitoring and evaluation are important for the success of HRM. Successful implementation
ensures that all employees know their role, career path and also feel part of an organization
which is able to manage and reconcile their expectations as well as those of the organization and
its objectives.

Functions of Human Resource Management
The major functional areas in human resource management are:
1. Planning,
2. Staffing,
3. Employee development, and
4. Employee maintenance.
These four areas and their related functions share the common objective of an adequate number
of competent employees with the skills, abilities, knowledge, and experience needed for further
organisational goals. Although each human resource function can be assigned to one of the four
areas of personnel responsibility, some functions serve a variety of purposes. For
example, performance appraisal measures serve to stimulate and guide employee development as
well as salary administration purposes. The compensation function facilitates retention of
employees and also serves to attract potential employees to the organisation.
Human Resource Planning: In the human resource planning function, the number and type of
employees needed to accomplish organisational
goals are determined. Research is an important part of this function because planning requires
the collection and analysis of information in order to forecast human resources supplies and to
predict future human resources needs. The basic human resource planning strategy is staffing and
employe edevelopment.
44
Job Analysis: Job analysis is the process of describing the nature of a job and specifying the
human requirements, such as skills, and experience needed to perform it. The end product of the
job analysis process is the job description. A job description spells out work duties and activities
of employees. Job descriptions are a vital source of information to employees, managers, and
personnel people because job content has a great influence on personnel programmes and
practices.
Staffing: Staffing emphasises the recruitment and selection of the human resources for an
organisation. Human resources planning and recruiting precede the actual selection of people for
positions in an organisation. Recruiting is the personnel function that attracts qualified applicants
to fill job vacancies. In the selection function, the most qualified applicants are selected for
hiring from among those attracted to the organisation by the recruiting function. On selection,
human resource functionaries are involved in developing and administering methods that enable
managers to decide which applicants to select and which to reject for the given jobs.
Orientation: Orientation is the first step toward helping a new employee adjust himself to the
new job and the employer. It is a method to acquaint new employees with particular aspects of
their new job, including pay and benefit programmes, working hours, and company rules and
expectations.
Training and Development: The training and development function gives employees the skills
and knowledge to perform their jobs effectively. In addition to providing training for new or
inexperienced employees, organisations often provide training programmes for experienced
employees whose jobs are undergoing change. Large organisations often have development
programmes which prepare employees for higher level responsibilities within the organisation.
Training and development programmes provide useful means of assuring that employees are
capable of performing their jobs at acceptable levels.
45
Career Planning: Career planning has developed partly as a result of the desire of many
employees to grow in their jobs and to advance in their career. Career planning activities include
assessing an individual employees potential for growth and advancement in the organisation.
Compensation: Human resource personnel provide a rational method for determining how much
employees should be paid for performing certain jobs. Pay is obviously related to the
maintenance of human resources. Since compensation is a major cost to many organisations, it is
a major consideration in human resource planning. Compensation affects staffing in that people
are generally attracted to organisations offering a higher level of pay in exchange for the work
performed. It is related to employee development in that it provides an important incentive
in motivating employees to higher levels of job performance and to higher paying jobs in the
organisation.
Benefits: Benefits are another form of compensation to employees other than direct pay for work
performed. As such, the human resource function of administering employee benefits shares
many characteristics of the compensation function. Benefits include both the legally required
items and those offered at employers discretion. The cost of benefits has risen to such a point
that they have become a major consideration in human resources planning. However, benefits are
primarily related to the maintenance area, since they provide for many basic employee needs.
Labour Relations: The term labour relations refers to interaction with employees who are
represented by a trade union. Unions are organisation of employees who join together to obtain
more voice in decisions affecting wages, benefits, working conditions, and other aspects of
employment. With regard to labour relations, the personnel responsibility primarily involves
negotiating with the unions regarding wages, service conditions, and resolving
disputes and grievances.
Record-keeping: The oldest and most basic personnel function is employee record-keeping.
This function involves recording, maintaining, and retrieving employee related information for a
variety of purposes. Records which must be maintained include application forms, health and
medical records, employment history (jobs held promotions, transfers, lay-offs), seniority lists,
earnings and hours of work, absences, turnover, tardiness, and other employee data. Complete
and up-to-date employee records are essential for most personnel functions. More than ever
employees today have a great interest in their personnel records.
46
1. A store of up-to-date and accurate information about the companys employees.
2. A guide to the action to be taken regarding an employee, particularly by comparing him
with other employees.
3. A guide when recruiting a new employee, e.g. by showing the rates of pay received by
comparable employees.
4. A historical record of previous action taken regarding employees.
5. The raw material for statistics which check and guide personnel policies.
6. The means to comply with certain statutory requirements.
Personnel Research: All personnel people engage in some form of research activities. In a good
research approach, the object is to get facts and information about personnel specifics in order to
develop and maintain a programme that works. It is impossible to run a personnel programme
without some pre-planning and post-reviewing. For that matter, any survey is, in a sense,
research. There is a wide scope for research in the areas of recruitment, employee turnover,
terminations, training, and so on. Through a well-designed attitude survey, employee opinions
can be gathered on wages, promotions, welfare services, working conditions, job security,
leadership, industrial relations, and the like. Inspite of its importance, however, in most
companies, research is the most neglected area because personnel people are too busy putting out
fires. Research is not done to put out fires but to prevent them.
Research is not the sole responsibility of any one particular group or department in an
organisation. The initial responsibility is that of the human resource department, which however
should be assisted by line supervisors and executives at all levels of management. The assistance
that can be rendered by trade unions and other organisations should not be ignored, but should be
properly made use of.
Apart from the above, the HR function involves managing change, technology, innovation, and
diversity. It is no longer confined to the culture or ethos of any single organisation; its keynote is
a cross-fertilisation of ideas from different organisations. Periodic social audits of HR functions
are considered essential.
HR professionals have an all-encompassing role. They are required to have a thorough
knowledge of the organisation and its intricacies and complexities. The ultimate goal of every
HR person should be to develop a linkage between the employee and the organisation because
the employees commitment to the organisation is crucial. The first and foremost role of HR
functionary is to impart continuous education to employees about the changes and challenges
facing the country in general, and their organisation in particular. The employees should know
about their balance sheet, sales progress, diversification plans, restructuring plans, sharp price
movements, turnover and all such details. The HR professionals should impart education to all
employees through small booklets, video films, and lectures
47
48
Objectives
The primary objective of HRM is to ensure the availability of right people for right jobs so as the
organisational goals are achieved effectively.
This primary objective can further be divided into the following sub-objectives:
1. To help the organisation to attain its goals effectively and efficiently by providing competent
and motivated employees.
4. To develop and maintain the quality of work life (QWL) which makes employment in the
organisation a desirable personal and social situation.
5. To help maintain ethical policies and behaviour inside and outside the organisation.
49
Scope
The scope of HRM is, indeed, very vast and wide. It includes all activities starting from
manpower planning till employee leaves the organisation. Accordingly, the scope of HRM
consists of acquisition, development, maintenance/retention, and control of human resources in
the organization. The same forms the subject matter of HRM. As the subsequent pages unfold,
all these are discussed, in detail, in seriatim.
2. Welfare Aspect:
It deals with working conditions, and amenities such as canteen, creches, rest and lunch rooms,
housing, transport, medical assistance, education, health and safety, recreation facilities, etc.
50
Training and development
Human resource management regards Training and Development as a function concerned with
organizational activity aimed at bettering the job performance of individuals and groups
in organizational settings. Training and development can be described as "an educational process
which involves the sharpening of skills, concepts, changing of attitude and gaining more
knowledge to enhance the performance of employees". The field has gone by several names,
including "Human Resource Development", "Human Capital Development" and "Learning and
Development".
Training and Development Encompasses three main activities: Training, Education, and
Development.
Training:
This activity is both focused upon, and evaluated against, the job that an individual currently
holds.
Education:
This activity focuses upon the jobs that an individual may potentially hold in the future, and
is evaluated against those jobs.
Development:
This activity focuses upon the activities that the organization employing the individual, or
that the individual is part of, may partake in the future, and is almost impossible to evaluate.
51
Benefits of Training & Development
Training is crucial for organizational development and its success which is indeed fruitful to both
employers and employees of an organization. Here are some important benefits of training and
development
Increased productivity
Less supervision
Job satisfaction
Skills Development
52
Objectives Of Training and Development
Below are the 7 main objectives of training and development that must be in your mind as
business, especially HR student.
Increased Productivity
Quality Improvement
Learning time Reduction
Safety First
Labour Turnover Reduction
Keeping yourself Updated with Technology
Effective Management
Increased Productivity
For any company, keeping the productivity at its peak is as important as getting in new
customers for business. Since even a slightest of the disturbance can take the business to the
brink of huge losses. Moreover, to tackle with the immensely growing competition in the target
market, it is important for one to increase the productivity of its workers while reducing the cost
of production of the products. So, thats where the training comes as a savior of the company,
jumps in the scenario and takes it out of the dangers bravely.
Training takes the current capabilities of the workers of a brand, polishes it and makes them
learn and devise new and effective methods of doing the same thing, in a repeated manner. In
other words, the training, if done in a proper way, can give your business a whole new look with
a much powerful base as experienced workers at its core
Quality Improvement
Improving the quality of the product is obviously one of the main objectives of training and
development since its not like those times when customers werent such quality conscious.
Todays customer knows whats better for him and whats not. Simply said, those old methods of
some sweet talk and business wont work for much long, because once they know the reality
behind the curtains through the services and products quality, they will leave the company as it is
without giving it, even, a second thought.
Just think of it as if you and your competitor are competing for the same service with some
difference in quality but at the same price, it is obvious that they will choose the one who is
better at handling the task without any quality degradation. Even if your price is a little higher,
then it is most likely the case that most of the customers will come to you.
Learning time Reduction
53
Keeping an eye on the learning capabilities of employees, and providing them the help which
they need, can be highly beneficial in longer runs. This capability of theirs is what that
determines how quickly an employee grabs the newly discovered fact and so, shape the future
products on this discovery. The weaker the capability, the harder it is to learn. But this scenario
can also be supported by the usage of proper learning material and experienced instructors who
prefer real-life experience than cramming. So, reducing the learning time is also one of the main
objectives of training and development.
Safety First
Safety of anyone, either he is a worker, an officer or even a customer, is not something that can
be taken lightly, especially in cases, where one knows that even a minute mistake can even lead
to life threats. Therefore, providing the knowledge, for using the equipment in a proper way and
creating the life-friendly product, also belongs to one of the major objectives of training and
development. The higher, the employees are better at handling equipment, the better it is both for
the company and for the workers.
On the contrary, training ensures that the company doesnt need to turn over its workforce again
and again because it prepares the employees to face any situation which proves helpful in
bringing in the feeling of workers. Therefore, the workforce feels safe and secure at a particular
job.
54
Keeping oneself Updated with Technology
Computers and mobile phones are the miracles of the past but the world of today is far more
advanced than that. Its time for latest technologies capable of connecting the world in just a
blink of an eye. Now, earthlings are trying to reach far off planets to get information about the
life force present there. Newer technologies are rolling in and we could continue to list it down
but we havent got time for that.
Training and education to the employees keep them updated with the latest of the additions to the
technologies, methods, techniques and processes. Since it also opens a new gateway for them to
look for a way which is greater in productivity and efficiency but decreases the need of manual
work immensely.
For example, spraying of pesticides and herbicides to keep the crop healthy and safe from
invaders with the help of a hand pump is a lot more tiresome work than it would be with the help
of a semi-automated machinery. But how can workers know that such a type of machinery is
available in a market, which cuts the time needed in the matter of hours instead of days, without
any update on whats going on around the globe?

guiding light for this newly shaped management, it lets them handle the tough decisions and
confusing realities thus opening the way for bigger and better opportunities for business for the
cause of the brand.
55
Scope of Training and Development
The scope of training depends upon the categories of employees to be trained. As we all know
that training is a continuous process and not only needed for the newly selected personnel but
also for the existing personnel at all levels of the organization
Prof. Yoder listed the following five groups of employees who need continuous
training:
1. Rank And File: i.e., employees who have no administrative or supervising work.
2. Supervisory Employees: i.e., the first line foreman, supervisor and their immediate
supervisors.
3. Staff: i.e. specialised personnel such as technical and professional persons attached to the line
organisation as advisors.
4. Middle Management: i.e., all the managerial personnel holding positions between line
and control.
