A RICH HERITAGE The Precursor STEEL AUTHORITY traces its origin to the formative years of an emerging nation - India. After independence the builders of modern India worked with a vision - to lay the infrastructure for rapid industrialization of the country. The steel sector was to propel the economic growth. Hindustan Steel Private Limited was set up on January19, 1954. Expanding Horizon (1959-1973) Hindustan Steel (HSL) was initially designed to manage only one plant that was coming up at Rourkela. For Bhilai and Durgapur Steel Plants, the preliminary work was done by the Iron and Steel Ministry. From April 1957, the supervision and control of these two steel plants were also transferred to
Hindustan Steel. The registered office was originally in New Delhi. It moved to Calcutta in July 1956, and ultimately to Ranchi in December 1959.
The 1 MT phases of Bhilai and Rourkela Steel Plants were completed by the end of December 1961. The 1 MT phase of Durgapur Steel Plant was completed in January 1962 after commissioning of the Wheel and Axle plant. The crude steel production of HSL went up from .158 MT (1959-60) to 1.6 MT. A new steel company, Bokaro Steel Limited, was incorporated in January 1964 to construct and operate the steel plant at Bokaro. The second phase of Bhilai Steel Plant was completed in September 1967 after commissioning of the Wire Rod Mill. The last unit of the 1.8 MT phase of Rourkela - the Tandem Mill - was commissioned in February 1968, and the 1.6 MT stage of Durgapur Steel Plant was completed in August 1969 after commissioning of the Furnace in SMS. Thus, with the completion of the 2.5 MT stage at Bhilai, 1.8 MT at Rourkela and 1.6 MT at Durgapur, the total crude steel production capacity of HSL was raised to 3.7 MT in 1968-69 and subsequently to 4MT in 1972-73.

The study has been under taken in order to highlight the job satisfaction of the employees, the company can enhance the working condition and the over all function of the organization by eliminating dissatisfaction and providing a good work atmosphere for the employees which will results in increased satisfaction
LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY The study was done only at the Salem steel plant Salem so the findings and interpretations can not be extended to some other organization Some of the respondents were not willing to give the correct and full information. Due to the short duration, I can able to collect the datas from the respondents of 110 which I took as sample size.
2.3 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY To procedures by which researchers go about their work of describing explaining and prediction phenomena are called methodology. Methods comprise the procedures used for generating, collecting and evaluation data. Methods are ways of obtaining information useful for assessing explanations. RESEARCH DESIGN: A research design is the arrangements of condition for collection and analysis of data. This speaks about the decision recording what, where, when, how much by what means concerning on inquiry or a research studies. constitutes the blue print for the collection measurements and analysis of data. The type of research used in this project is descriptive in nature. Descriptive studies aim at portraying accurately the characteristics of a particular group or situation. GEOGRAPHICAL AREA COVERED The survey was conducted in Salem Steel Plant in Salem. METHODS OF DATA COLLECTION: Primary Data Secondary Data In
PRIMARY DATA: The primary data was collected from the respondents through the questionnaire, observation & direct interview. SECONDARY DATA: The secondary data was collected from the
SAMPLE SIZE: The Target population of employees is 1328 of Salem Steel Plant. Among which 110 were taken as a sample size. SAMPLE DESIGN: The sampling technique used in the study was 'Non-probability convenience sampling' method was adopted and used for the study.
TOOLS USED FOR ANALYSIS: SIMPLE PERCENTAGE ANALYSIS The expression of data in terms of percentage is of the simplest statistical services used in the interpretation of business and economic statistic. Percentages are useful chiefly for the purpose of aiding comparison. A percent is the number o\f hundredth parts on numbers is of another. Formula: No. of respondents Percentage = ---------------------------- x 100 Total No. of respondents
CHI-SQUARE TEST The chi square test is used to test whether there is a significant difference between the observed number of responses in each category and the expected number of responses for such category under the assumptions of null hypothesis. It is one of the simplest and most widely used non parametric tests in statistical work. Where, Formula:
(i Ei ) 2 2 = Ei i =1
n
The calculated value is compared with table value given degrees of freedom a specified level of significance. If the observed value is greater than the table value then there exists a significant relationship between the factors and if the observed value is lesser than it is not considered significant.
2.4 REVIEW OF LITERATURE According to the U.S. Department of Education, National Center for, Education Statistics (NCES), (1999), the more job stress, the lower group cohesion, the lower work satisfaction and the higher the anticipated turnover. The higher the work satisfaction, the higher group cohesion and the lower anticipated turnover. The more stable the work schedule, the less work related stress, the lower anticipated turnover, the higher group cohesion, and the higher work satisfaction. Job stress, work satisfaction, group cohesion, and weekend overtime were all predictors of anticipated turnover. These are difference in the factors predicting anticipated turnover for different age groups. Maslach (1996) Job Satisfaction and burnout are important areas of study because of the financial and social effects of job satisfaction and the damaging physical / psychological impacts of burnout. Two hundred family / children and psychiatric workers of seven social service organizations were surveyed. Instruments used were the Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire, the Maslach Burnout Inventory, and the staff Burnout Scale for Health Professionals. NCES (1999) and Thomas (2000) reported an increase from 29 percent in 1986, to 45 percent in 1994. This study addressed the factors that nursing staff perceived as creating job satisfaction in their working environment in addition to addressing the ethical dilemmas that staff experienced within an acute psychiatric care setting. It also addressed how clinical supervision contributed to job satisfaction among staff as well as the differences between staff who attended and staff who did not attend to clinical supervision. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Chubon (1992) the result of this study showed that the factors influencing nurses are related to areas of dissatisfaction, for example, stress and experiences with shortcomings. Factors that contribute to job satisfaction or dissatisfaction were found to be related to the nurses value systems. The ethical dilemmas that
were specifically addressed involved how to care for patients and handle work in relation to patients autonomy, how to approach the patient, how to provide care against the will of the patient, and what action was ethically right for each particular patient. Lefranois (1994) the current nursing shortage and high turnover is of great concern in many countries because of its impact upon the efficiency and effectiveness of any health care delivery system. Recruitment and retention of nurses are persistent problems associated with job satisfaction. This paper analyses the growing literature relating to job satisfaction among nurses and concludes that more research is required to understand the relative importance of the many identified factors to job satisfaction. Wilzinki (1991) the satisfaction refers to an individuals general attitude towards his / her job. A person with a high level of job satisfaction holds positive attitudes about the job, while a person who is dissatisfied with his / her job holds negative attitudes about the job. When people speak of employees attitudes, more often than not they mean job satisfaction.
