Introduction to Human Resource Management


The HRM meaning today is much more unified and tactically involved. The importance of recruiting,
rewarding, training, developing, selecting, motivating and compensating the personnel is recognized and
experienced by managers in every unit and efficient area of an institute. HRM and every other function
must work together to accomplish the level of organizational usefulness required to complete locally and
internationally.

Objectives of Human Resource Management


HRM makes to organizational effectiveness include the following:
• Helping the organization reach its goal.
• Staffing the skills and capacity of the staff effectively.
• Providing the organization with well skilled and well-motivated workforces.
• Improving to the completest the employee’s job fulfilment and self-actualization.
• Communicating HRM policies and procedures to all employees.
• Helping to manage ethical policies and social responsibility.
• Handling change to the manual advantage of individuals, groups, the enterprises and the public.

8 Golden Ideologies of Human Resources


Principle #1: Staffing to retirement.

HR is tied in with handling workers from enlistment to leaving. It incorporates labor arranging, choice,
preparing and improvement, position, wage and compensation organization, advancement, exchange,
partition, execution check, complaint taking care of, wellbeing organization, work assessment and legality
rating, and post-employment review. Decisively, it manages arranging, sorting out, staffing, coordinating,
and regulatory of individuals.

Principle #2: Individuals (men) behind the machine count.

Beforehand, it was the mechanism behind the man that tallied. Today, persons are the honest capacity to
drive relations forward. Machines just aid individuals.

Principle #3: Hire for boldness, recruit for skills.

Attitude is the key to worker engagement and success. From this time forward, HR pioneer’s need
accentuate demeanor as opposed to understanding. It is smarter to enlist another activity searcher with
high disposition and no experience than one with a spoiled frame of mind and long stretches of learning.
On the off chance that workers have a decent mentality, they will have the capacity retain the learning,
abilities and aptitudes that are basic to play out their errands adequately in the workplace.

Principle #4: Gain attitude but admiration intelligence.

“© Daffodil International University”


Page |9

The facts demonstrate that together demeanor and knowledge remain basic to enhance the confident main
concern. On the off chance that HR pioneers discover it stands difficult to grow both, they must to pick
disposition over vision as it achieves hierarchical purposes and targets.

Principle #5: Hire slow, fire fast.

HR developers must be moderate in enlisting the accurate ability for their associations. They should
exploration for the correct outlook, range of abilities, and instrument set in employment searchers amid
enrollment. On the off chance that they locate that rotten ones entered their wreck, they should be
disqualified rapidly to cover further damage to their associations.

Principle #6: Shelter complexity, wed simplicity.

Individuals currently want to effort in level associations as opposed to tall ones. Tall associations
frequently have chains of importance with a bureaucratic attitude that doesn't work in the present setting.
Gen Yers are upbeat to work with accomplices instead of through managers. Along these lines, shed
intricacy and marry straightforwardness to accomplish authoritative greatness and adequacy.

Principle #7: HR leaders are king and queen creators.

By and by, there is an impression all-inclusive that HR pioneers are the best and ruler producers. They
can't move toward becoming lords and rulers. They are seen as individuals who progress toward
becoming stepping stools for others to move to higher positions. It is because of the jobs and obligations
they attempt. HR pioneers are experts of their exchanges, not jacks of different exchanges.

Principle #8: To assist is to lead and live.

Mahatma Gandhi once commented, "The most ideal approach to end up is to lose yourself in the
administration of others." HR pioneers must serve individuals with delight with no weight. They should
progress toward becoming torchbearers of human capital then learning. They should learn, unlearn, and
relearn toward remain important.

Position and Structure of Human Resource Management


Human asset division duties can be divided into three zones: individual, hierarchical, and vocation.
Singular management involves serving workers recognize their abilities and failings; right their
inadequacies; and make their best promise to the responsibility. These obligations are brought out through
an assortment of exercises, for example, execution audits, making, and testing.

Lately, be that as it may, eyewitnesses have referred to a chosen incline toward crucial reassessments of
HR structures and positions. "A course of changing business conditions, changing authoritative structures,
and changing administration has been constraining human asset divisions to adjust their points of view on
their job and capacity medium-term," composed John Johnston in Business Quarterly. "Beforehand,
organizations organized themselves on an incorporated and compartmentalized premise; head office,
advertising, producing, shipping, and so on. They currently try to decentralize and to coordinate their
activities, creating cross-utilitarian teams'¦.

Human asset the executives is concerned about the development of the two people and the association in
which they work. HRM, by then, is secured not simply in tying down and developing the capacities of

Problems Associated with Organizational Staffing


Organizational staffing is the process of hiring people based on the specific responsibilities they will have
in the organization. The staffing priorities are based on the results the organization wants to achieve.
Staffing in this way is advantageous in some instances but there are also some drawbacks to the
organizational staffing process.

1. Improper clarification of company vision: Organizational staffing is based on the concept that
the company will select and train new employees to perform specific functions within the
business.
2. Imperfect staff: Organizational staffing sometimes selects some people who aren’t perfect for
the company. In this case the original goals and vision of the company may not be achieved
because the employees have the lacking in the practical talents, abilities and philosophies.
3. Lack of exactness: It is based on the idea that the company should hire employees who fit the
vision of the company. However, it is notoriously difficult to define in concrete terms exactly
what a “good fit” is.

Training & Development

P a g e | 24

Training and Development - A Key HR Function


Training and development is one of the key HR functions. Warily choosing staffs don’t guarantee they
will make adequately. Indeed, even high potential representatives can’t play out their works in the event
that they don’t perceive what to do. The human asset division commonly plans the organization’s
situating and preparing programs.

By and large, the expressions “preparing” and “improvement” are utilized as if they are synonymous.
There are contrasts in the unique circumstances and strategies of worker preparing and advancement.
Preparing is the demonstration of expanding the learning and aptitudes of a worker for carrying out a
responsibility. It impacts explicit aptitudes for explicit purposes. It is primarily work situated. Conversely,
advance incorporates the methods by which chiefs and authorities acquire not just aptitudes and capacity
in their present employments yet in addition capacities for future administrative posts.

Systems Assessment of Training - Steps in a Training Program


The achievement of a preparation program is assessed as far as the outcome or the expansion in the
exertion capacity, aptitude or competency in the student. For any preparation program to be effective it is
exceptionally fundamental to pursue a specific procedure.

The elementary procedure as illustrated in the figure below contains of four stages which are
assessment, development, delivery and evaluation.

Figure: Training & Development model

• Firstly, needs analysis step – identification of precise data and skill the job requirements and
compare these with the possible trainee’s knowledge and skills.
• Then, instructional design stage – frame selection, quantifiable knowledge and routine training
objectives, analysis possible training program content and estimation of budget for the training
program.
• The third step is to implement the program, by training the targeted staff group using approaches
such as on-the-job or online training.

“© Daffodil International University”


P a g e | 25

• Finally, in a valuation step – measure the program’s success or failures.

Training, Learning and Motivation


Learners are always more motivated to learn something that has meaning for them. Therefore:

1. At the start of training, provide a bird’s eye view of material that a person going to present.
2. Use a variety of familiar examples.
3. Organize the information, so that can present logically and in meaningful units.
4. Use terms and concepts that are already familiar to trainees.
5. Maximize the similarity between the training situation and the work situation.
6. Provide adequate practice.
7. Label or identify each feature of the machine and or step in the process.
8. Direct the trainee’s attention to important aspects.
9. Trainees learn best when the trainers immediately reinforce correct responses, perhaps with a
quick “well done”
10. The schedule is important. The learning curves goes down late in the day, so that full day training
is not an effective as the half day or three-fourths of the day.

Training Needs Analysis

Analyzing current employees training needs is more complex since the added task of deciding whether
training is the solution.

As referenced before, the requirements investigation/evaluation is completed at three dimensions -


authoritative, Individual and Job. We presently take up every single one of them in detail.

Task Analysis

Task analysis is a detailed study of the job to determine what specific skills – like java or interviewing the
job requires. Job descriptions and job specifications are important here. These list the job’s specific duties
and skills which are basic reference points in determining the training required.

Competency Models

Many employers develop competency models for jobs. The competency models consolidate, usually in
one diagram, a precise overview of the competencies someone would need to do a job well.

Performance Analysis

Performance evaluation is the procedure of confirming that there is a performance shortage and defining
whether the employer should rectify such deficiencies through training or some additional means. There
are numerous ways to recognize how a current staff is doing. These include reviewing:

• Job evaluations.

“© Daffodil International University”


P a g e | 26

• Job-related performance information.

• Observations by supervisors or other experts.

• Interviews with the employees or his or her manager.

• Assessments of things like work knowledge, skills and appearance.

• Attitude reviews.

• Individual employee’s regular diaries.

• Assessment center marks.

Training plans improvement worker satisfaction and advance employee retention

Figure: Training need analysis

Designing the Training Program

Armed with the outcomes of the needs assessment, the employer or manager can design the training
program. Requests for training often start with line managers presenting problems or concerns, such as
“we are getting too many complaints from call center callers”. Training, development or instructional
objective then specify in measurable terms what the trainee should be able to accomplish after
successfully completing the training program.

Difference Between Training and Development


Representative fixing, and advancement is a vital part of human asset volume and the managers. Both the
movements go for enhancing the execution and profitability of the representatives. Preparing is a program
composed by the association to create information and abilities in the representatives according to the
necessity of the activity. On the other hand, Development is a sorted-out action in which the labor of the
association learns and develop; it is a self-appraisal act.

Characteristics of a Good Training Program


Many establishments, even though they have some great training employees and apply a large amount on
training programs, do not get good results. To safeguard that the training programs are effective, and the
organizations get good results from them, the following principles may be observed:

“© Daffodil International University”


P a g e | 28

• Determination of training needs: The management should agree the training requirements of
employees and then select a process of training that is most operative.
• Relevance to job requirements: Training programs must be correlated to the necessities of the
job for which they are planned.
• Allowance for individual differences: There are variation in capability, learning capacity and
curiosity of trainers so the organization should deliberate these factors while designing the
training package.
• Training program should be result oriented: Organization should sidestep “training for the
sake of training” and show better interest in the welfares of training scheme.
• Suitable incentives: There should be encouragements to the trainers to make them take training
plan seriously.
• Management support: Top management should take interest in and care the training programs.
Assistants cannot be projected to take the training program seriously if the supervisors themselves
are not serious near them.

their understanding of the business and to test their abilities. The trainee may be a recent college

graduate and spend several months in each department, learning the departments business by
doing it.
2. Coaching/ Understudy Approach: Here the trainee works directly with a senior manager or
with the person he or she is to replace; the latter is responsible for the trainee’s coaching.
3. Action Learning: Action learning programs give managers and others released time to work
analyzing and solving problems in departments other than their owns.

Training Effects to Measure


• Reaction: Evaluate trainees reactions to the programs. They like the program or not?
• Learning: Test the trainees to determine whether they learned the principles, skills and facts they
were supposed to learn.
• Behaviors: Ask whether the trainees on-the-job behavior changed because of the training
program. For example, are employees in the store’s complaint department more courteous toward
disgruntled customers?
• Results: Probably most important, ask “what results did we achieve, in terms of the training
objectives previously set?”

and gainfulness. The organizations preparing strategy refers to all employees and means to assurance that

representatives’ examination.

Advantages of Performance Appraisal


It is said that performance appraisal is an investment for the company which can be justified by following
advantages:

1. Promotion: Execution Appraisal makes the boss chalk out the progression programs for gainful
specialists. In such way, inefficient workers can be removed or minimized if.
2. Compensation: Execution Appraisal helps in chalking out pay packs for laborers. Authenticity
rating is possible through execution examination. Execution appraisal tries to offer worth to an
execution. Compensation groups which consolidates remunerate, high pay rates, extra
assessment. The criteria should be legitimize rather than position.
3. Employees Development: The proficient strategy for execution examination makes the
supervisors layout planning methodologies and designers. It analyzes characteristics and
deficiencies of laborers with the objective that new occupations can be proposed for capable
delegates. It is like manner helps in encompassing future enhancement programs.
4. Selection Validation: Execution Appraisal makes the executives understand the legitimacy and
significance of the choice methodology. The regulators come to know the legitimacy and in this
manner the qualities and shortcomings of choice system. Future changes in choice frameworks
can be made in such way.
5. Communication: For an association, viable correspondence among workers and businesses is
essential. Through execution evaluation, correspondence can be looked for in the accompanying
ways:
a. Through execution examination, the businesses can comprehend and acknowledge
abilities of subordinates.
b. The subordinates can likewise comprehend and make a trust and trust in bosses.
c. It likewise helps in keeping up welcoming and friendly work the executive’s relationship.

great degree well moves a man for better occupation and urges him to upgrade his execution later.

Potential Appraisal Problems


There are several problems related to performance appraisal like unclear standards, halo effect, central
tendency, leniency or strictness and bias.

1) Unclear Standards: This graphic rating scale seems objective. However, it would probably
result in unfair appraisals, because the traits and degrees of merit are ambiguous. For example,
different supervisors might define “good” performance, “fair” performance and so on differently.
The same is true of traits such as “quality of work” or “creativity.”

“© Daffodil International University”


P a g e | 35

The best way to fix this problem is to include descriptive phrases that define or illustrate each trait. This
specially results in more consistent and more easily explained appraisals.
2) Halo Effect: Experts define halo effect as “the influence of a rater’s general impression on
ratings of specific ratee qualities.” For example, supervisors often rate unfriendly employees
lower on all traits, rather than just on “gets along well with others.” Being aware of this problem
is a step toward avoiding it. Supervisory training can also alleviate the problem, as can using
BARS (on which, recall, the performance dimensions are usually quite independent of each
other).
3) Central Tendency: Some supervisors stick to the middle when filling in rating scales. For
example, if the rating scale ranges from 1 to 7, they tend to avoid the highs (6 and 7) and lows (1
and 2) and rate most of their people between 3 and 5. Central tendency means rating all
employees average. Ranking employees instead of using graphic rating scales can reduce this
problem since ranking means they can’t rate them all average.
4) Leniency or Strictness: Other supervisors tend to rate all their subordinates consistently high or
low, just as some instructions are notoriously high or low graders. This strictness/ leniency
problem is especially severe with graphic rating scales. On the other hand, ranking forces
supervisors to distinguish between high and low performance.
5) Recency Effects: The recency effect means letting what the employee has done recently blind to
what his or her performance has been over the year. The main solution is to accumulate critical
incidents all year long.
6) Bias: The number of things that can lead to bias during appraisals is limitless. One study focused
on the rater’s personality. Good relationship tends to create good experiences, bad relationships
had ones.
Unfortunately, the appraises personal characteristics (such as age, race and sex), also affect their ratings.

Techniques/ Methods of Performance Appraisals


1) Rating Scales: Rating scales includes of several balances talking to work related implementation
foundations, for example, reliability, course of action, yield, contribution, mindset and so forth.
Each scale ranges from astounding to deprived persons. The collective numerical scores are
processed, and past ends are strong-mindset..

2) Checklist: Below this method, schedule of articulations of attributes of worker as Yes or No based
investigations is organized. Here the rater just does the revealing or inspection, and HR division
does the real assessment. Focal points – economy, ease of company, forced preparing required,
institutionalization. Inconveniences – Raters inclinations, utilization of inappropriate considers by
HR, does not permit rater to give comparative appraisals.

3) Forced Choice Technique: The planning of articulations planned in the squares of minimum two
are given and the rater shows which clarification is valid or invalid. The rater is bound to settle on
a conclusion. HR division does sincere appraisal. Preferences – Absence of individual dispositions
due to inhibited decision. Detriments – Reports might be imperfectly surrounded.

4) Forced Distribution Technique: Here representatives are grouped about a high point on a rating
scale. Rater is constrained to convey the workers on all focuses on the scale. It is accepted that the
execution is fit in with typical dissemination. Focal points – Eliminates Disadvantages –
Assumption of ordinary dissemination, impossible, blunders of focal inclination.

5) Critical Occurrences Process: The policy is adjusted about certain basic performs of
representative that has a significant effect in the execution. Managers as and when they happen

“© Daffodil International University”


P a g e | 36

record such episodes. Focal points – Evaluations depend on genuine occupation practices,
appraisals are upheld by portrayals, criticism is simple, diminishes recency predispositions, odds
of subordinate enhancement are high. Disservices – Negative occurrences can be organized,
overlooking episodes, excessively close supervision; input might be excessively and may seem, by
all accounts, to be discipline.

6) Psychologically Anchored Score Scales: Descriptions of powerful and insufficient practices


decide the focuses. They are said to be typically secured. The rater should state, which conduct
portrays the worker execution. Favorable circumstances – conquers rating blunders. Impediments
– Suffers from contortions inalienable in most appraising strategies.

7) Field Examination Process: This is an examination done by somebody external representatives'


very own specialization as a rule from business or HR office

8) Performance Tests & Remarks: This depends on the trial of information or aptitudes. The tests
might be composed or a genuine introduction of abilities. Tests must be solid and approved to be
valuable. Preferred standpoint – Tests might be able to gauge potential more than genuine
execution. Hindrances – Tests may endure if expenses of test improvement or organization are
high.

9) Private Records: For the most part used by government offices, anyway its application in
industry isn't discounted. Here the report is given as Annual Confidentiality Report (ACR) and
may record appraisals as for following things; participation, self-articulation, collaboration,
administration, activity, specialized capacity, thinking capacity, inventiveness and cleverness and
so forth. The outline is remarkably unseen and classified. Input to the evaluates is given just in the
affair of an antagonistic section. Hindrance is that it is exceedingly emotional, and appraisals can
be controlled claiming the valuations are connected to HR actions like improvements and so forth.

10) Essay Technique: In this policy the rater histories the worker depiction in detail inside a few
general classes like, by and large imprint of execution, promotability of representative, existing
capacities and capabilities of performing occupations, qualities and shortcomings and preparing
needs of the representative

11) Cost Accounting Technique: Here execution is evaluated from the fiscal revenues compliments
his or her association. Cost to keep representative, and advantage the organization infers is
discovered. Consequently, it is increasingly reliant upon expense and advantage investigation.

12) Comparative Assessment Technique (Ranking & Paired Assessments): These are
accumulation of various techniques that contrast execution and that of other colleagues. The
standard systems utilized might rank strategies and matched correlation strategy.

13) Ranking Systems: Predominant positions his laborer dependent on rightfulness, from best to most
exceedingly terrible. Anyway, how best and why best isn't clarified in this technique.

14) Management by Objectives: It means management by objectives and the performance is rated
against the achievement of objectives stated by the management. MBO procedure drives as under.

“© Daffodil International University”


P a g e | 37

15) Psychological Appraisals: These assessments are progressively synchronized to review worker's
possible for future execution instead of the prior one. It is done as inside and out meetings, mental
tests, and exchange with directors and survey of diverse assessments.

16) Assessment Centers: This system was first created in USA and UK in 1943. An appraisal
emphasis is a crucial area where supervisors may meet up to have their investment in occupation
connected doings assessed via prepared spectators.

17) 360-Degree Feedback: Employers generally use the feedback for development rather than for pay
increases. Most 360-degree feedback systems contain several common features. Appropriate
parties- peers, supervisors, subordinates and customers for instance- complete surveys on an
individual.

Promotion
A promotion occurs when an employee is moved from a job to another position that is higher in pay,
responsibility and/or organizational level. Generally, it is given as a recognition of a person’s past
performance and future promise. However, with downsizing and the resulting flatter organization, there
are fewer levels to which one can be promoted, prompting some to argue that supervisor have to be more
open minded about job hunting by subordinates. Promotions usually are based on merit and/ or seniority.

At Control Union, advancements imply the administration's pledge to perceive and remunerate superb
execution. It inspires representatives strive for headway openings inside the Company. It additionally
adds to worker fulfillment and maintenance. Worker advancement is made by inspecting all components
important to decide the best capabilities and capacities to fill the position.

of superior performance in the current job.

Senior in this case means the employee who has the longest length of service with CU. The
advantage of this approach is that it is objective. All one must do is compare the seniority records
of the candidates to determine who should be promoted.

Rewards that Drive Employee Motivation

execution reward every year in affirmation of their individual commitment, diligent work and devotion.

worker commitment that has surpassed desires. It could possibly be joined by fiscal esteem. At CU,
workers are particularly compensated by the administration to spur and motivate – to walk the additional
mile.

Findings, Recommendations & Conclusions

“© Daffodil International University”


P a g e | 50

Findings

• As per my observation, Control Union Bangladesh does not have organized HR practices. Also,
do not have any skilled HR personnel who can do properly HR activities.
• HR person doesn’t have full authority and control for recruitment and selection.
• HR don’t have any specific and structured recruitment system as sometimes they cannot predict
the requirements of man power.
• They set a target and goal about training and development of an employee, but HR does not
monitor it.
• The company does not have proper appraisal system in place. HR should take initiative to
implement this in organization. Otherwise employee will get demotivated and it will increase
turnover of the company.
• Highlighting the company benefits; - Control Union Bangladesh is giving less benefits to its
employees in comparison with other overseas offices in terms of holidays, weekly holidays,
facilities etc.
• Control Union Bangladesh has a good compensation management system as per law of
Bangladesh. But they intend to reduce existing facility.

Recommendation

• As Control Union Bangladesh don’t have a designated HR person, so a skilled and experienced
HR person is highly recommended.
• If an assigned person is there, then he can control full recruitment and selection procedure with
the involvement of top management.
• HR needs to establish a specific and structured recruitment system as sometimes they cannot
predict the requirements of man power.
• HR should have a summary of training plan of each employee to monitor it round the year.
• To reduce employee turnover there should be active performance appraisal system as well as
rewarding for their work.
• Some benefits can be same as like as their global offices.
• Rather to reduce the existing facility, they should figure out the root cause of employee turnover
though which is not very big percentage.

Conclusions
Employees always play a very vital role to run an organization because they help an organization to
achieve its target and goal. Control Union is one of the leading company in certification business and they
have most latest the HR practice across the world. Control Union Bangladesh is also working to adopt
most prominent HR functions and practices. They always emphasize to recruit fresher so that they can get
opportunity to develop their career. They also give priority to train the people from external and internal
source so that employees can be ready for their challenges. HR plays the media for this program happen
in the organization.
