PREFACE
This Research is a part of my summer training without my M.B.A is incomplete. Summer
training is an integral part of every M.B.A course. We cant rely merely upon theoretical
knowledge. It is to be complemented by practical know how for it to be fruitful. A
positive and correct result of the classroom learning needs realities of practical situation.
The training enables the management students to themselves see the
working conditions under which they have to work in the future. It gives them real feel of
corporate world, which helps them to better equip themselves with the required skills. I
got the opportunity to do the training at TATA MOTORS and did a study on
EMPLOYEE ABSENTEEISM survey. In particular I was lucky enough to be part of
study and I was assigned to do some research regarding the reasons for absenteeism and
helping in solving the problem of absenteeism and finding out preferences and priorities
of employees to adopt suitable strategies attract them to work more and regularly. It has
been a great learning experience for me.
The study would not have been possible without the unconditional
guidance and support of all at this branch of MUL. I would like to thank all the members
of the company besides all others who have been helpful to me for completing the study.

Tata Motors is the first company from India's engineering sector to be listed in the New York
Stock Exchange (September 2004).
The company has made major mergers and acquisitions in the recent past viz. Ford and Land
Rover (U.K.), Daewoo commercial vehicles company (Korea).
The company's commercial and passenger vehicles are already being marketed in
several countries in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Australia, South East Asia and South Asia.
It has assembly operations in Malaysia, Kenya, Bangladesh, Spain, Ukraine, Russia and Senegal.
WEAKNESSES
There is a need for more service stations for its authorized dealers.
The recent mergers and acquisitions were too expensive.
Maintaining the good quality product at a comparatively low cost is becoming tough for the
company.
OPPORTUNITIES
There has been a continuous increase in the exports of both commercial and passenger vehicles of
Tata Motors.
Government has provided the companies with SEZs and EEZs with flexible policies and alsoproviding concessions for manufacturing plants meant for export.
Though the urban market has been penetrated, the rural market is still open for penetration.
The average annual income of people in India has increased which ensures the demand for both
passenger and commercial vehicles.
THREAT
The biggest threat for the company is the increasing prices of the raw material, most important
among them is steel.
The interest rate on vehicle loans has been increased by the government several times during the
past few years which has lead to fall in the demand.
Since the government has allowed 100% FDI in automobile sector lot of foreign players have
entered into the Indian automobile sector e.g. Hyundai, Toyota.
There is also a rise in the number of domestic competitors in the recent years.
4.1 INDUSTRY PROFILE:
Automobile put the horses on rest and changed the way of living for mankind, is a wheeled passenger
vehicle that carries its own motor. The term 'automobile' is derived from Greek and Latin words. 'Auto' in
Greek means 'self' and 'mobiles' in Latin means 'movable.' The phrase refers the fact that it 'moves by
itself.' Automobile used to be also addressed as 'motorwagen' or 'horseless carriage'.
The first automobile rolled in India in 1897 in Bombay (now Mumbai). Soon the number of cars increased
on the roads and it became the status symbol until MARUTI UDYOG entered the market in 1980s with
cars at economical price and high fuel efficiency. Maruti800 had ousted the outdated model of
HINDUSTAN MOTORS best seller brand Ambassador. Today, the Indian automobile industry has
matured greatly. It has become one of the largest industries in India, witnessing impressive growth during
the last two decades. Worldwide, the industry is getting recognition and vehicles as well as components are

4 In commercial vehicle, Tata Motors dominates the market with more than 60% share. Tata
Motors is also the world's fifth largest medium & heavy commercial vehicle manufacturer.
India has witnessed a sudden and sharp twist to its earlier staggering political and business scenario. With
the influx of F.D.I, the economy has seen the sensex soaring thanks to the young working population from
the various strata of the society, who are sincerely contributing to the G.D.P of the country. The young
population has become extremely mobile in terms of conducting business and serving the society. The sales
of commercial and passenger vehicles has thus witnessed a sudden increased demand which is expected to
grow in leaps and bounds in the following months to come.
The average working population has increased, and with the B.P.O sector tagged to provide employment to
thousands there has also been an increase in the passenger car market.

GROWTH PATTERN COMPARISON FOR 6 YEARS
Liberalization and Globalization has contributed largely to the sudden entry of new players in various
segments of the automobile industry. With the dawn of the new millennium and the introduction of new
vehicles with extended features, better quality product and after sales services in the commercial and
passenger vehicles, the market had seen a tremendous rise in the demand for new vehicles. The above
graphs show a sudden rise in the production of automobiles. It shows a rise of 77% in 5 years from the year
2000 to 2005. Last fiscal saw the production touching 9.74 million units from the automobile sector. The
trend is predicted to prevail in the coming 5 years and the production is expected to grow by another 15 %
in the next few years to come.

The Automobile Industry has not experienced much change in its structure over the last 6 years because the
two-wheelers continue to form the major share of domestic sales in the Indian market whereas the
passenger vehicles lead the export market with a 57.4% share. The growth of the 2 wheeler and the sudden
demand for the 4 wheeler cars, the passenger vehicle market is being probed by the danger of losing its
market share. It is witnessing competition from the 2 wheeler manufacturers who are now providing
vehicles to the customers with minimum down payment options and easy repayment schemes.

Private financers have mushroomed into the cities and are fundamental in the increased sales of the new
vehicles. New customers are constantly being lured by the best quality automobiles from various parts of
the globe and from the local competitors.
The current market share but belongs to the commercial vehicles in which TATA motors holds a major

INTRODUCTION
ABSENTEEISM: - Absenteeism in layman language means taking a holiday
without permission.when any employee does not inform their supervisor or boss for
taking the leave comes under absenteeism.
LEAVE: -Leave is the preplanned holiday where the employee informs their boss
either by phone or writing a letter to their boss in advance.
There is difference between absenteeism and leave and it might be clear from above
definition.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ABSENTEEISM AND LEAVE
ABSENTEEISM LEAVE1. It is not a preplanned holiday.
2. Here the employee does not
inform their supervisor.
3. Here the responsibility of taking a
holiday solely depends upon the
employee.
1. It is a preplanned holiday.
2. Here the employee informs their
supervisor.
3. But in preplanned leave,
supervisor plays a vital role
because ultimately he has to
sanction the leave.
PLANNED HOLIDAY
16

7/30/2019 To Study the Abseentism and Overtime Among the Employee on Tata Motors Workshop Employees and the Determinants Causes
17/68
When an employee asks from the supervisor for taking the leave it comes under planned
holiday. Because it was planed is advance and it depend upon the wish of employer
whether he is in a condition to provide leave to the employee or not. Here both the
employer and employee know the situation and reason for taking a leave. Both are aware
of this planned holiday. Here sanctioning of leave is totally depend upon supervisor
whether he want to give leave or not.
UNPLANNED HOLIDAY
When an employee does not ask from the supervisor for taking a holiday here supervisor
is not at all aware that a particular person is taking a holiday with their permission.
Supervisor does not know the reason why the employee is taking the leave. Here not at
all any method is applied for informing Neither telephone calls nor e- mail nor letter etc
Here topic of my project is employee absenteeism survey so I should have an in
depth knowledge regarding absenteeism. Firstly I should be known to fact of
reasons of absenteeism.
REASONS OF ABSENTEEISM: -
Job Dissatisfaction: - It may be possible that reasons for absenteeism come due to
job dissatisfaction. When a person is not at all satisfied from his job, how can he give his
best to the company and frustration arises during his work and which will lead to frequent
absenteeism.
Work Overload: - Sometimes work overload comes as main reason for absenteeism.
Due to heavy work overload, employees get over burdened with their work and in their
day to day life they need rest in spite of one holiday in a week and this lead to
17
-
7/30/2019 To Study the Abseentism and Overtime Among the Employee on Tata Motors Workshop Employees and the Determinants Causes
18/68
absenteeism. Even if there is not any provision for any holiday in a week it will lead to
more absenteeism.
Overtime: - Overtime if not properly planned will lead to more absenteeism overtime
should be in accordance with the capacities of employees. If the overtime is of long hours
they will feel tired if they do not overtime continuously for two- three days or more
which will lead to absenteeism.
Shift Time: - Shift time should be set by taking into consideration the employees
work. Some persons do not feel comfortable in other shift (which serves as reason for
absenteeism).
Family Reason: - It is an important reason towards absenteeism. Any emergency can
arise in the family whether it can be family sickness or urgent work can occur. Due to this
family reason more frequent absenteeism occurs.
Personal Problem: - personal problem is also important reason of absenteeism.
Personal problem on the part of the employee is an important reason of absenteeism.
Health & Sickness: - Health & sickness is the major problem of absenteeism. Here
always unplanned holiday occurs because sickness never occurs in a preplanned manner.
Work Environment: - If the working environment is not coordinated the employees
are not satisfied, they will be frustrated from the working conditions of the company
which will lead to absenteeism.
18
-

19/68
Now after finding out the reasons for absenteeism we will proceed towards the
factors influencing the absenteeism.
FACTORS INFLUENCING ABSENTEEISM
Salary: - The old saying is quite right you get what you pay for salary is not at all
a motivator, but even then it should paid fairly otherwise it will lead to dissatisfaction
among employees, frustrated employees not give their best to the company. So salary is a
major factor influencing the absenteeism.
Working Conditions: - The environment in which people work has a tremendous
effect on their level of pride for themselves and for the work they are doing. You should
do everything that will ultimately lead to betterment of working environment and better
the environment, better will be general working condition. Overall employee will be
satisfied and will take less leave.
Work Itself: - The work itself is a major determinant for absenteeism. How an
employee is recognizing his work and what outcome he is giving to the company. If an
employee is enjoying his work, then reason for absenteeism will ultimately finished.
Achievements: - Set clear, achievable goals and standards for each position and make
sure employees know what those goal and standards are individual should also receive
regular, timely feedback on how they are doing and should feel they are being adequately
19
-
7/30/2019 To Study the Abseentism and Overtime Among the Employee on Tata Motors Workshop Employees and the Determinants Causes
20/68
challenged in their job and all these achievements lower down the absenteeism.
Achievement is a major factor influencing absenteeism.
Recognition: - Recognition is one of the important factor influencing absenteeism
Individual at all levels of organization want to be recognized for their achievement on the
job. Their successes do not have to be monumental before they deserve recognition, but
your praise should be sincere.
Responsibility: - Employee will feel motivated if equal job responsibility is assigned
to employees. They will feel motivated if they have ownership of their work. This
requires giving employee enough freedom and power to carry out their task so that they
feel they own the results.
All these were the major factor influencing absenteeism which determines
how frequently a person is absent or present.
SELECTING THE METHODOLOGY FOR EMPLOYEE
ABSENTEEISM SURVEY.
There are two primary methodologies for conducting employee absenteeism survey.
20
-
7/30/2019 To Study the Abseentism and Overtime Among the Employee on Tata Motors Workshop Employees and the Determinants Causes
21/68
Internet
Paper and pencil
Choice of methodology should be based on what is best for
respondents best in terms of convenience, ease of use and trust in the method. There
is a little difference in price between either method until the sample size number in
thousand, in which case internet is more cost effective if all employees or
substantially all employees have access to the internet form work, internet is our
recommended methodology. It generally a result is a higher response rate and is faster
than paper and pencil. It is also a but more control in terms of how the questions are
presented and gives the ability to require that certain questions must be answered. We
have a secure serves, so there is no issue with regards to confidentiality of sending
results an internet is done them.
If only a small% age of employees have internet access from work, we
recommend using the traditional paper and pencil methodology even if cost savings
could be realized by forcing employees to a central location to complete the survey it
is better to use paper and pencil in this circumstances to avoid user errors caused by a
lack of familiarity with the internet medium on the part of some users.
In some cases, it is appropriate to use maximum methodologies. This is a
preferred approach when there are large contingents of employees with internet
access and large contingents without the mixed method generally will yield a higher
response rate than with the paper and pencil.
OBTAINING A HIGH RESPONSE RATE IN YOUREMPLOYEE ABSENTEEISM SURVAY
Here are the steps to take to obtain a high response rate,
21
-
7/30/2019 To Study the Abseentism and Overtime Among the Employee on Tata Motors Workshop Employees and the Determinants Causes
22/68
Market the employee absenteeism survey to the employees and managers
before the survey begins.
Make it clear that the survey can be completed on company time, and make
sure all supervisors support this. (we have seen complaints in employee
comments when this is promised but one or more supervisors do not support
it)
Make sure employees understand their responses will be confidential. Support
your statements to the best extant possible, e.g., Your questionnaires will be
received directly by the research firm doing the tabulations. Nobody in our
organization will see your ratings and comments.
Let employees know how many people have responded at various point in
time.
Establish an overall response rate goal and give all employees something
extra if the goal is reached.
Send reminder messages.
When the results come in, let the employees know what they were. This will
help the next surveys response rate.
Act on the results. This also will help the nest surveys response rate.
INVITING THE EMPLOYEES TO PARTICIPATE IN THEABSENTEEISM SURVEY
The invitation to employees to participate in the survey can be done via either
email or memorandum.
22
-
7/30/2019 To Study the Abseentism and Overtime Among the Employee on Tata Motors Workshop Employees and the Determinants Causes
23/68
In both cases, certain key information must be communicated.
What is happening? E.g., we are conducting an employee satisfaction
survey.
Why it is happening. E.g., as our changes and faces new challenges, it
becomes increasingly important to gauge the level of absenteeism of our
employees.
The survey is anonymous and confidential; assure employee that their
responses will be held in the strictest confidence. If using an outside supplier,
mention that only the supplier will see the completed responses.
How the results will be used. Anything you can share with the employees in
this regard will make it more likely that people will respond.
How long the survey will take to complete. Most survey of this type, if
properly designed, will take only 15 or 20 minutes to complete. If this is case
with your survey, be sure to mention it.
Give a deadline.
Thank the employee for their time.
If the invitation is email for an internet survey, the email should contain the URL.
Care must be taken to ensure that the URL is hot link (employees should simplybe able to click on the link to go to the survey) and that the link actually lead
people to the correct URL. The message should appear with in text of the email
itself, rather than in an attachment
If the invitation is a memorandum inviting people to participate in a paper and
pencil survey, the questionnaire and a return envelope should accompany it. The
memorandum should tell people how to return their completed questionnaires.
Optional information to consider including in the invitation:
Tell people the survey can be completed on company line.
If there is some sort of group incentive for a high response rate, mention
what it is.
23
-
7/30/2019 To Study the Abseentism and Overtime Among the Employee on Tata Motors Workshop Employees and the Determinants Causes
24/68
If it is internet survey and your research supplier is using a secure server,
mention this.
To maximize response rate, the invitation should come from within the organization
itself, and should be signed by a senior manager (the CEO if possible). For a paper and
pencil survey, the questionnaire packet should be delivered to people at their places of
work instead of mailing it to their homes.
ACTING ON THE RESULTS OF AN EMPLOYEE
Absenteeism Survey
Your company has committed the resources to survey its employees, employees were
enthusiastic about participating in these surveys so it a necessity to distribute the results
of the survey.
24
-
7/30/2019 To Study the Abseentism and Overtime Among the Employee on Tata Motors Workshop Employees and the Determinants Causes
25/68
Distribution of the Survey Results
From the beginning, senior executive must determine how to distribute the survey results
and by whom this distribution is done. For this, once the survey results are distributed, an
action plan must be created to decide which areas are most important to employees and
how best to important those areas.
Communicate Survey Results and Action Plan to your Employees
One of the biggest mistake organization can make in the survey process is to fail to
communicate to every one the finding of the survey and plans created to improve weak
areas. While we do not suggest distribution of complete survey report to everyone, we do
recommend an open and honest discourse of both organizational strength and areas for
improvement at department level if possible.
SHARING THE FINDINGS OF AN EMPLOYEE
ABSENTEEISM SURVEY
It is critical to share results in a timely manner for at least two reasons:
1. Everyone must know where the organization as a whole and their individual areas
stand if you are going to fully leverage and efforts of the employee base.
2. Employee need to know that the time they spent in completing the survey was
worthwhile.
25
-
7/30/2019 To Study the Abseentism and Overtime Among the Employee on Tata Motors Workshop Employees and the Determinants Causes
26/68
Each organization has its own information-sharing culture in place. While in some cases,
particularly if the survey showed communication to be the problem, the process will need
some adjustment, we recognize that each organization will have an approach to
information dissemination that it typically leverages. As such, modifications to our
recommended approach may be order to account for an organizations information-
sharing culture.
The basic principles of sharing employee absenteeism survey results
Be honest. An organization must be willing to share both its strengths and its areas in
need of improvement. Employees will see through attempts to hide or spin information.
Be Timely. The sooner you release results, the sooner the organization can begin to move
toward positive change.
Share Appropriate Information At Each Level. Senior management will need
encapsulated results and access to detailed results for the organization as a whole and
differences between divisions/departments. Division managers will need to how their
division compares to the organization as a whole and how departments in the division
compare to each other. Department managers will need to know how their results
compare to the organization as a whole and to the division to which they belong.
Do Not Embarrass People In Front Of Their Peers. Teamwork and morale can be
harmed if, for example, a division manager shows all department scores to the
department managers in a group setting. Rather than pointing out low-scoring department
to all department managers, let all department managers know how that fared compared
to other departments via one-on-one meetings.
Discuss What Happens Next. After the results have bee presented, let the audience
know what steps will be taken to improve those items in need of improvement.

Thus when we talk of research methodology we not only talk of research methods but
also consider the logic behind the methods we use in the context of our research study
and explain why we are using a particular methods or techniques and why we are not
using others. So that research results are capable of being evaluated either by research
himself or by others.
The method of the research used here is descriptive
Descriptive research includes surveys and fact finding enquiries of different kinds.
It is used to portray accurately the characteristics of a particular individual, situation
or a group.
This research include survey and fact finding enquiries of different kind. Basic
purpose of this type of research is that it describes the state of affairs in current
scenario. It is being generally used in social science and business research. This
study is also termed as ex post facto Main characteristic of method are that
research has no control over the variables he can only report what happening.
Here in descriptive research we have prepared questionnaire and done surveys of
different individuals
COLLECTION OF DATA
In dealing with any real life problem, it is often found that data at hand are inadequate
and hence, it becomes necessary to collect data that are appropriate.
The task of data collection begins after a research problem has been defined and research
design has been formulated.

There are several ways of collecting the appropriate data which differ considerably in the
context of monetary cost, time and other resources, so it becomes necessary to collect
data in a manner which is appropriate.
While deciding about the method of data collection to be used for the study, the
researcher should keep in mind two types of data viz.
Primary
Secondary
Primary data are those which are collected afresh and for the first time and thus happen to
be original in character.
The secondary data are those which have already been collected by someone else which
have already been passed through statistical process.
FORMAL INFORMATION SOURCES
These are the source of information which are authentic and reliable, obtained though
proper channel in the organization by adhering to a systematic and structured procedure.
For example Through company manuals, journal, brochures and other published
material like balanced sheet, annuals report etc.
Questionnaire
Personal interview and mails.

Through the company person.
INFORMAL INFORMATION SOURCES
These are the sources of information which are obtained through our interpersonal
relationship with the employees of company.

Annual report of company like annuals sales report, annual H.R.
report etc.
Here in my research I have used both the primary as well as secondary data for research
topic.
Primary data that I have used is the structured questionnaire.
I have designed a structured questionnaire as they are simple to administer and relatively
inexpensive to analyze Provision of alternative replies, helps to understand the meaning
of questions clearly. There were dichotomous as well as multiple choice questions. The
data was collected by conducting personal interview of respondents with the help of
questionnaire.
Along with the primary data obtained through use of questionnaire. I have used
secondary data from various sources like financial websites, business magazines,
newspapers, journals etc
ANALYSIS OF DATA
The data after collection has to be processed and analyzed in accordance with the outline
laid down for the purpose at the time of developing the research plan.
Here the data I have collected through survey it needs editing, coding, classifying and
tabulation.
There are many steps involved in processing and analyses of data. These are as follows:

IN CASE OF ASSOCIATES:
Main reason for absenteeism is health & sickness and family problems. Out of total
percentage of absenteeism, percentage due to health & sickness is quite high. Temporary
associates take less holiday because they want to become permanent.
IN CASE OF STAFF:
Main reasons for absenteeism are work overload and conflicting demand. Hereabsenteeism is mainly occurring due to not completing their work on target time and they
used to do that work by taking holidays.

LIMITATIONS OF STUDY
As nothing is perfect except the efforts. This study too has its limitations that limit the
applicability and validity of study. The limitations that limit the effectiveness of research
are like.
Time- Foremost of all the constraints was the limited time. The time to do the
research was limited so present study is the results of whatever efforts I could put
in within time limit.
Limited validity- The business environment factor and variables underlying the
study belongs to a very dynamic category. As the only thing that is constant
exchange so the study can be obsolete as soon as a major change in environment
taken place.
Sample Size- As the survey was taken from the sample of whole population, it
can not give exact results like censes survey.
Lack of knowledge on the part of employees.
