ABSTRACT

The need for the said project arose from the fact that there are various features in the present salary structure of the non management staff at Heinz India Pvt. Ltd. Aligarh that led to employee and employer dissatisfaction alike. These points of concern led to my carrying out this project work. In this project I started with the analysis of the present level of employee satisfaction and the various related components thereof. Then under the able guidance of Mr.Manoj Tiwari, after a lot of brains storming various curacities were arrived at, employees satisfaction level was thoroughly analyzed and their feasibility judged at each level. After that, the work was done to improve the conditions. Increments in various organizational related issues were added to provide them maximum satisfaction. The increments were included in various financial and non-financial issues.

We also look the survey of employee satisfaction taken at Etah tea plant related to their Basic, HR, Pay and Recognition, Leadership etc. The study was done in the form of Questionnaire Survey.

The aim of the survey done at Heinz was to know the actual level of satisfaction in terms of their various needs.Then, the finding of the survey was documented by the means of Graphical representation.

These proposals were presented before the management at the Aligarh Plant for their kind perusal and they were satisfied with the result as well as planning to add those proposals in their Long Term Settlement.

COMPANY PROFILE

INTERNATIONAL

HEINZ international company is one of the American paradigms. It began

shortly after the civil war was in a family garden near Pittsburgh

Pennsylvania. In the year 1869, its founder HENRY JOHN HEINZ was a

pioneer in food processing and product marketing. He was a remarkable

man, an energetic entrepreneurial boy from a pastor and a village near

Pittsburgh, who was not only a business genius, but also a man of high

moral, principles and personal rectitude, set a new standard for an entire

world.

H.J HEINZ Company is well known player in FMGC category. It stands

second in the world among food product companies next to nestle. It has

been certified by ISO-9000. HEINZ is the company known as ‘good place to

8

work’ since 1869 and is still known by this name Heinz follow ‘good food

manufacturing practices’.

1994 was a significant year in the life of the H.J.HEINZ Company. It marks

the 125th anniversary of the company. It also mark HEINZ in mid 1990’s

vigorous and ‘full of beans’ both executing today’s strategies and forgoing

those that will become the foundation of Heinz in the 21st century the Heinz

of tomorrow .

The H.J.HEINZ Company is constantly looking backward into the future

and forward into past. By US standard, the Heinz company. At 125 is also

one of the dwindling numbers of surviving companies. Fewer and fewer

since take over day of the 1980’s to still bear the name of its founder. But by

any standard, it is a remark. Arable distinguished and successful company

genuinely beloved by the citizens of its hometown, as well as by the loyal

employees and customers around the global, its brand name has increased

in stature and value over years, as has its reputation for world class

employees.

9

HENRY JOHN was different ‘he treated its factory as his mother’s spotless

kitchen given importance to hygiene and cleanliness. ‘he insisted one the

best ingredients and clear jars to display the purity of Heinz product. He

also treated his employees as through they were members of his family.

Of course, like any family, Heinz has had its ups and downs. At successful

and lies-successful and lies-successful ventures, inspired ideas lucky

accidents missed opportunity, fiascoes and funny stories.

Heinz corporate office of HEINZ INDIA PVT LTD is situated at Mumbai.

Succeeding generations sustained the company and maintained its public

following throughout a period enormous social, political and economic

upheaval, the constancy of Heinz proved a great comfort in time of

depression and world war. A global economy is emerging, uneven but

inexorable. In the course of the 125 years, Heinz has grown from an

American dream to global brand. That achievement is treatment to the

universal appeal of the Heinz ideal pure food and healthful, affordable

nutrition. It is also a tribute to the tenacity, inventiveness world. As a new

generation of customers enters a widening world market place the appeal of

Heinz ideal remains unceasingly durable and filled with promise.

10

In September 1993, at the annual meeting O’RELLY amplified the strategies

and shared the good news to shareholders. A new Heinz had emerged,

poised for substantial growth in 1990’s beyond.

HISTORY CHANGING NAME FROM GLAXO TO HEINZ

The GLAXO INDIA LTD was incorporated in India on November, 1924 as

an agency house for distributing. The well known baby food ‘GLACTO’ of a

British co. it was recognized internationally 5 one of the leading

manufacturers of the research based pharmaceuticals and food products.

In the early 1990’s Glaxo was going in losses in the manufacturing of food

products all over the world. Glaxo asked to close all its food products over

the entire globe. However, Aligarh plant was running in profits so it did not

want to close the unit and hence asked the Galax headquarter at Britain to

permit her to continue the production. The headquarter agreed on a

condition to continue the food product after changing the name so Glaxo

India Ltd was remaining as Glaxo Laboratories India Ltd [GLINDIA].

This change in name caused a negative effect on sales of pharmaceutical

product so GLINDIA further enquired the Headquarter again to allow using

the old name Glaxo India Ltd. The permission was granted. But due to

11

competition in food product market Glaxo India ltd thought that as the

headquarter is not facilitating R and D program regarding food products so

it would become difficult in the near future to survive in the growing stiff

competition. Therefore Glaxo India Ltd though that they should sell them

Aligarh plant at the time when it is making profits so that good value could

be earned from it.

Ultimately in1994 Glaxo India ltd took a decision to sell its food products

manufacturing unit in Aligarh. Heinz India private ltd took over from Glaxo

India ltd. In October 1984, as Glaxo had decided to concentrate only on

pharmaceuticals.

Heinz India private ltd by 1999 has become ‘Deemed Public co.’ as it has

crossed the average annual turnover of Rs. 10 crores for three consecutive

years. A limit set by company’s act, 1956 which permits a co. to omit writing

the word ‘private’ in its name. So Heinz India private ltd was renamed as

Heinz India ltd, and again renames the co. Heinz India ltd.

THE NEW HEINZ

12

In February 1992, a world wide growth forum attended by the company’s

top 35 managers, O’RELLY and his senior advisor presented the two and his

senior advisor presented the improvement in the market share and profit and

implement radical change. A revolutionary idea emerged to replace the

company decentralized purchasing system with a centralized negotiable

strategy. The leveraging the company’s global strength made an eminent

financial sense it would save the company’s million over the next decade.

Procurement of keys material was centralized. In the area of marketing,

Heinz began to challenge to conventional wisdom about media spending.

Taking a more fixable and timely approach to trade, consumer and point of

purchase promotion as well as media buys, affiliated aimed to move their

marketing dollar towards consumer promotion self-pricing. Heinz already

enjoying $2 billion business in the European community targeted further

growth.

During 1992 and 1993, O’RELLY and senior management hammered out

new reasonable and demanding goals for each affiliate and successful led

the company out the complacency and mentality that inevitably accompanies

two decades of unparallel financial growth and profitability.

13

In October 1992, with an eye of dynamic Asia pacific Market Heinz made its

largest offshore, acquisition. Purchasing Wattles Limited a min Heinz in

New Zealand for $300 million. An excellent complement to existing Heinz

operation in Australia, Japan and China, significantly strengthened its

presence in this fast growing region of world.

Employee satisfaction

Employee satisfaction is the terminology used to describe whether employees are happy and contented and fulfilling their desires and needs at work. Many measures purport that employee satisfaction is a factor in employee motivation, employee goal achievement, and positive employee morale in the workplace.

Employee satisfaction, while generally a positive in your organization, can also be a downer if mediocre employees stay because they are satisfied with your work environment.

Employee satisfaction is the individual employee’s general attitude towards the job. It is also an employee’s cognitive and affective evaluation of his or her job

.

1.Overall Individual satisfaction: Employees be should satisfied with the organization as a great place to work.

2. Work Environment: Employees have to feel satisfied with the environment within which they work for it would result in high productivity.

3.Communication Methods :When administrative policies and all important announcements are communicated to the employees ,it boosts their morale. The methods chosen for communication also play an integral role. some of the methods that could be used are intranet ,monthly newsletters ,weekly meetings etc...

4. Compensation and benefits: This is the most important variable for employee satisfaction .Employees should be provided with competitive salary packages and they should be satisfied with it when comparing their pay packets with those of the outsiders who are working in the same industry

47

Need of employee satisfaction

The study of "Employee satisfaction" helps the company to maintain a standards & increase productivity by motivating the employees. this study tells us how much the employees are capable & their interest at wok place? what are the things still to be satisfy to the employees. although "human resource" are the most important resources for any organization, so to study on employees satisfaction helps to know the working conditions & what are the things that affects them not to work properly. always majority of done by the machines/equipments but without any manual moments nothing can be done. so to study on employee satisfaction is necessary.

48

Objective of the study

To imply theoretical knowledge in to practical knowledge. To know the working environment of the company. To analyze the satisfaction level of the employees. To know the area of dissatisfaction. To arrive at the conclusions and find the effective ways by which

problem can be solved and satisfaction level can be improved. To find out the impact of the various financial and non- financial

incentives on the satisfaction levels of the employees.

49

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODOLOGY:-

RESEARCH DESIGN:-

Research design is the systematic procedure of all the activities used to collect data, analyze it, and find the interpretation and reaching at conclusions. Research design should be effective and match with the environment in which it has been taken. It should also be economical. The research design taken in this project is a combination of both explorative and conclusive research design as explorative research design helps in finding out the real problems while conclusive research design helps in finding out the solutions of the problem.

As in this project we first come out with the areas of dissatisfaction and then find out the reasons behind this.

UNIVERSE:-

THE HEINZ INDIA PVT. LTD. ,MANZOORGADI , ALIGARH; a manufacturing unit of Heinz India engage in the production of Tomato Ketchup, Glucon-D, Complain and Sampriti Ghee, consist of a large no. of skilled, unskilled and semiskilled employees, do production on large scale.

Hypothesis:-

It is generally considered that only financial incentives or rewards have greater impact on the employee satisfaction but in this project I assumed that beside financial incentive , non financial incentives also have greater impact on satisfaction level of the employees. The whole study of this project is based on this assumption.

50

Sources of data collection:-

Data collection is the collection of various facts and figure, opinions to get insight in it and find out the causes and effect of such opinions and to fulfill the objectives of the research.

There are mainly two type of data that I have used-

Primary Data:-

I have prepared a questionnaire on employee satisfaction issues and get it filled randomly by the non -managerial staff.

Secondary Data:-

I have also gone through some websites :-to know the effective questions related with employee satisfaction so that better result can be obtained.

Sampling framework and size:-

Sample Unit:- Heinz India Pvt. Ltd., Aligarh factory

Sample technique:- Simple random sampling

Sample size:- the total non managerial staff consist of 464 employees,…………………………………………….

51

For employee satisfaction survey I prepared a questionnaire with the help of my supervisor. It contains 24 questions and I have divided the questionnaire in to 6 fields to better know the mindset and psychology of the employees.

The 6 fields are:- Pay and recognition Training and development Change and awareness Team work and feedback Response and feedback Communication and behavior

Each question has 3 options ‘a’, ‘b’, and ‘c’ which shows the satisfaction level of the employees. ’a’ represents ‘ fully satisfied employees’, ‘b’ represents ‘satisfied employees’ and ‘c’ represents ‘ non satisfied employees.’

Analysis and interpretation:-

Analysis:-

The survey done to measure the satisfaction level of the total 464 employees in the company shows that

63.7% (295 employees) of the total employees are fully satisfied 23.4% (109 employees) of the total of the employees are satisfied 12.9% (60 employees) of the employees are not satisfied or

unsatisfied.

Interpretation:-

It is interpreted from the above study that beside some of the employees are dissatisfied from their basic salary but they are satisfied with their organizational environment and their working condition. This all is the impact of the various facilities provided by the Heinz.

The various facilities include The bus facility Canteen facility Medical facility Sports facility PDP facility Rest room facility

these all facilities create the maximum satisfaction among employees. So we can say that beside financial incentive, non financial incentive also has the greater impact on employee satisfaction and hence more than 60% employees are satisfied in Heinz.

60

Summary and conclusion:-

Employee satisfaction is the prime requirement of any company. Apart of other assets , employees are also the important assets of any organization. So, for the development of organization and meet its mission and goals , it is very important to find out the employee satisfaction level after a certain interval. The employee satisfaction survey done by me under the supervision of my mentor in HEINZ INDIA PVT. LTD. Provides the satisfaction level of the employees. More than 60% of the total employees are fully satisfied while only 12.9% employees are not satisfied. This is the excellent result of the company because ‘one can not satisfied one completely.’

61

RECOMMENDATIONS:-

No doubt Heinz is a good MNC with large no. of satisfied employees but in my opinion the organization also has some drawbacks and by improving these it can become a top level MNC. The improvements should be made in the following manner:-

Employees are the main productive asset of any organization, so there should be proper employees in any organization.

Practical training should be given to every employee regarding any new machine the plant is going to set up.

The principle of Division of Labor should be applies so that every employees will get his task according to his capacity and capability.

The employees who are not somewhat satisfied with their financial incentives, the company should take step to satisfy them.

The employees should be given the opportunity to actively participate in Decision making this will improve the Participative Management of the company.

CASE STUDY

There was a small organization where all the employees worked together in a team and have created a bond among them. Mr. Tiwari was the HR Manager of that organization. Due to the effect of team work, employees leads the organization at high position and also increased the production of the company, because of this as the time changed the small organization has converted in to a big organization. That organization consists of various departments for different activities and the employees who worked together in the small organization started working in different departments. This leads to separation of employees from each other.

After sometime the production of the company started to decline. The chief executives and Managers at different at different were worried about the declining production of the company. They started to find out the reason behind this. They introduced their first step towards increasement in salary of the employees but they found that there was no much effect of this. Again to improve the position, they make a committee to find out the actual reason. The panel consists of Mr. Tiwari (HR Manager of small organization) who with the help of other members of the committee finds out the reason that the main reason for low production is not the salary but the separation of the employees from each other which cause dissatisfaction among themselves.
