Case Study of HRM
The company has one registered trade union and the relationship between the union and
the management is very cordial. The company has not lost a single man day due to strike.
The company is not a pay master in that industry. The compensation policy of that
company, when compared to other similar companies, is very less still the employees don’t have
many grievances due to the other benefits provided by the company. But the company is
facing countable number of problems in supplying the materials in recent past days. Problems
like quality issues, mismatch in packing materials (placing material A in box of material B)
incorrect labeling of material, not dispatching the material on time etc…
The management views the case as there are loop holes in the system of various departments and
hand over the responsibility to HR department to solve the issue. When the HR manager goes
through the issues he realized that the issues are not relating to system but it relates to
the employees. When investigated he come to know that the reason behind the casual approach
by employees in work is
> The company hired new employees for higher level post without considering the
potential internal candidates.
> The newly hired employees are placed with higher packages than that of existing employees in
the same cadre.
