Badarpur Thermal Power Station has an installed capacity of 705 MW. The First unit was

commissioned in July 1973. The coal for the plant is derived from the Jharia Coal Fields. This was

constructed under ownership of Delhi Vidyut Board. Later it was transferred to NTPC. Currently,

the Badarpur power station has five coal fired units three units of 95 MW each and two of 210

MW each totaling 705 MW. The three 95-MW sets are over 35 years old and date back to the

early '70s. The Badarpur power station has been a very unique project. Till 2006, the plant was

owned by the central government but run by NTPC. Prior to take-over by NTPC, the plantrepeatedly recorded very low plant load factor (in the region of 35 per cent). However, once NTPC

took over the project, the PLF jumped to over 80 per cent because of plant rehabilitation

programmes.

Project Work:

Grievance Handling At BTPS


7/8

Introduction:

There is hardly a company where the employees do not have grievances of one kind or the other.

These grievances may be real or imaginary, valid or invalid, genuine or false. A grievance produces unhappiness, discontent, indifference, low morale, frustration etc. Ultimately, it affects

the employees concentration, efficiency and productivity. Prompt and effective handling of

grievances is also the key to industrial peace.

Grievance is rust on human relations. The cost of a grievance can be high, resulting in poor work,

time wastage, damage to costly machines due to neglect, employee resentment, poor customer

service, resistance to change, union-management conflict and so on. The organisations that do not

provide such complaint processing mechanisms for their employees may suffer from consequenceswhich could enfeeble the organizational process.

So, grievances must be settled as near as possible to the point of origin and on merit only. Hasty

actions, without properly ascertaining facts only help to aggravate the situation. Hence it is better

to have a systematic grievance redressal procedure which should:

BE SIMPLE FAIR AND EASY TO UNDERSTAND

E NCOURAGE EMPLOYEES TO PUT FORTH THEIR GRIEVANCES

FUNCTION PROMPTLY AND EXPEDITIOUSLY

GAIN EMPLOYEE CONFIDENCE , AND

PROMOTE HEALTHY RELATIONS BETWEEN EMPLOYEES AND THE COMPANY .

In short, a sound grievance procedure can really strengthen the bonds between the management

and the workers can serve as an alarm-bell if theres any problem of serious nature and can prevent individual grievance from becoming an industrial dispute. It can also lead to better

harmonious relations between the management and the workers, can prevent the union from

exploiting and misguiding the workers, and can bring the conflicts into the open and resolve

them.

Purpose of the study:

Effective grievance administration helps the management to shift from purely preventive and

maintenance needs to the developmental needs of employees such as improving communication,

job-redesigning, integration with the corporate goals etc.

Workers learn about industrial democracy from the grievance process as they participate in shop

decisions that affect their work-life.

For any large organization, which is ever-growing in size and the accompanying complexities and

problems, the need for effective and efficient grievance machinery cannot be under estimated.

Scope of the study:

The study would be carried out at the NTPC, Badarpur in New Delhi among its employeesconsisting of both executives and non-executive employees. The main aim of the study is to

ascertain the effectiveness of the organizations grievance handling procedure. It also aims at

finding out if the employees are well acquainted and satisfied with the procedure.

Research Methodology:

The study would be conducted through sampling of a small group of employees .The sample size

would be 30-35.

Method of Data Collection:

The data would be collected through a structured questionnaire.
