The year 2004 marked a turning point in the history of global trade in services, with growing
disaggregate any business process, execute the sub-processes in multiple centers around the
world, and reassemble it, in near-real time, at another location. This is driving fundamental
changes in the global IT services landscape; vendors and customers are redefining the levels
of value creation in the industry. In the wake of changing global service landscape, Indian
remarkable growth.
The Indian software and services export is estimated at Rs. 78,230 corer (US$ 17.2 billion) in

Indian ITES-BPO sector industry continues to grow from strength to strength, witnessing
high levels of activity – both onshore as well as offshore. Last year witnessed vendors
moving up the value-chain to offer higher-end research and analytics services to their clients.
Attrition levels also remained high, between 25-40 per cent, as demand for trained talent
outpaced supply.
The Indian IT success story has also highlighted India’s attractiveness as an investment
destination – also beyond the IT sector. Another key impact of the global sourcing model
popularized by the growth of IT-ITES has been the reversal of the brain drain – as people of
Indian origin (who went to pursue careers abroad), as well as young expatriates, are now

To exist as a market leader in a globally competitive marketplace, organizations need to

One of the key elements to HCL's success is its never-ending pursuit of superior quality in all
its endeavors.
HCL Info systems believe in the Total Quality Management philosophy as a means for
continuous improvement, total employee participation in quality improvement and customer
satisfaction. Its concept of quality addresses people, processes and products.
Quality at HCL Info systems Ltd.
The history of structured quality implementation in HCL Info systems began in the late 1980s
with the focus on improving quality of its products by using basis QC tools and Failure
Reporting and Corrective Active Systems (FRACAS). We also employed concurrent
engineering practices including design reviews, and rigorous reliability tests to uncover latent
design defects.
In the early 90s, the focus was not merely on the quality of products but also the process
quality systems. HCL’s manufacturing unit at NOIDA was certified initially to ISO
9002:1994 by BVQI in 1994 and later on to ISO 9001:1994 in 1997. As of now, all HCL’s
manufacturing units are certified by BVQI as per ISO 9001:2000
In early 1995, a major quality initiative was launched across the company based on Philip B.
Crosby's methodology of QIPM (Quality Improvement Process Management). This model
was selected to because it considered the need and commitment by an organization to
improve but more importantly, the individual's need towards better quality in his
personal life. Under HCL’s Quality Education System program, we train HCL’s employees
on the basic concepts and tools of quality. A number of improvement projects have been
undertaken by HCL’s employees, whereby process deficiencies and bottlenecks are
identified, and Corrective Action Projects (CAPs) are undertaken. This reduces defect rates
and improves cycle times in various processes, including personal quality.
HCL’s certifications / awards in 2003 include ISO 9001-2000 by BVQI for HCL’s Info
Structure Services and award of First Prize by ELCINA (Electronic Component Industries
Association) for Quality, 2002-03. The ELCINA award criterion considers two aspects. (1)
Enablers (Leadership & Management commitment, Resource Management, Product
Realization, Measurement Analysis & Improvement) and Results (Product Quality, Customer
/ Stake holder satisfaction, Business results).
In the early 70’s, a group of young, enthusiastic and ambitious technocrats embarked upon a
venture that would make their vision of IT revolution in India a reality. Shiv Nadir and five of
his colleagues got together and in 1975, setup a new company called Micro comp. To start
with they decided to capitalize on their marketing skill Micro comp marketed calculators and
within a few months of starting operations, company was outselling its major competitors.

QUALITY POLICY
The management is fully committed to quality and ensures all resources to accomplish this task.
QUALITY OBJECTIVES
THE COMPANY’S QUALITY OBJECTIVES ARE AS FOLLOWS:
- To focus on its customers and successfully meet their needs and requirements.
- To manufacture effective health care products at competitive prices and to improve the
quality of life of the common masses.
- To ensure safety in all operations by working according to the systems in all areas of
operations.
The first step involves the filling up of Manpower Indent Form. This form is filled up by the
department, which is having the vacancy. The form consists of various questions which are to be
answered like if the current vacancy is a replacement vacancy, its reason is to be specified -the
factors which resulted it like death, retirement etc.
The department is required to give the qualifications that the future candidate should possess.
In the next step, this form is given to the Human Resource (HR) department; this department sees
if the position can be filled through internal sources. The internal sources can be transfers,
promotion etc. In the case of internal sources, the recommendations of the employees are not
taken into consideration. If the HR department does not find suitable candidate within the
organization then this department has to give reasons for it. The form then goes to the Corporate
HR for its approval.
When the suitable candidate is not available within the organization, the organization then moves
to the outside world for filling up the vacancies.
If the number of employees required is large then the company has in its consideration three ways-
The Data bank of the organization.
Advertisements.
Contacting large consultants.
Advertisements are the second big source to attract the candidates. These are having much larger
scope and reach to a number of people. The qualifications required by the organization and the
criteria could be described in detail.
Large number of consultants also constitutes a big source. Many people register themselves with
these consultants and they act as a bridge between the organization and the candidates. The
consultants provide the company required details about all criteria. These consultants are fixed for
the organization, which are chosen on the basis of their performance. In case of overseas
recruitment it is checked whether their Indian counterparts can perform the job efficiently or not.
If need arises then they are also taken through consultants.
But if the number of vacancies is very small then the organization takes the help of the local
consultants.
The candidates are then required to fill up the Application Form. This form requires the candidate
to fill the details regarding the previous employment, if any and his personal data.
After the application form has been duly filled and submitted, the selection process starts wherein
the candidate has to pass through various stages and interview. The interview panel consists of the
persons from Corporate (HR), and other persons including the executives from the department for
which the vacancy is to be filled.
The selected candidates are then short-listed. The short listed candidates are then given priority
numbers; this is due to the reason that sometimes the candidate who is having first priority is
unable to join the organization due to some reasons then in that case the candidate next in the
priority list is given preference. The candidate has to undergo medical examination and his
credentials are verified.
After qualifying these stages, the candidate is then absorbed in the organization and explained
his/her duties. This phase marks the end of the selection procedure.
HCL India Ltd. also performs Campus interviews as and when the need arises. The esteemed
organization also provides apprentice training-wherein the organization trains the people in the
working of the organization and gives then stipend. If these trainees are found useful to the
organization then they are absorbed in the organization else they are given certificate so that they
can show this as an experience and get a job elsewhere.

When we talk of human resource management, we have in our mind a variety of things.
These include:
Training
These aspects of human resource management and development are essential for every sector
but in the case of tourism, they have a special significance. This is because tourism is a
service industry and here the customer is not only buying a service or a product but he is also
experiencing and consuming the quality of service which is reflected in the performance of
the person involved in the production and delivery of the service. Since what is marketed here
is a relationship between the customer and the producer of services, the importance of human
resources becomes vital for the success of the business. Generally, in such service operations
the emphasis has been on courtesy and efficiency and it is assumed that the service in tourism
is all smiles and effective communication. However, with the changing nature of tourism and
growing special station only smiles, communications skills and courtesy will not serve the
purpose. For example, a guide may be very good in communication but unless he or she is
equipped with knowledge and information related to the monument or the city, he or she will
not be able to perform quality service. Similarly, a driver may be very good at driving but
unless he knows the roads and addresses of the city, only his driving capabilities will be of no
help in providing quality service. And we must remember here that tourists, whether foreign
or domestic, are increasingly becoming more demanding as regards quality of service.
Jan Carlson has defined MOT “as an intention between a customer and an
Organization, which leads to a judgment by the customer about the quality Of service
received by her or him” Researchers conducted by various Scholars in this area show that
they have achieved this, status, through Effective human resource management in their
organizations. According to Gail Cook Johnson these companies have applied the principal of
Empowerment to all employees. This empowerment is manifested in the
Way those companies:
Are highly focused and consistent in everything they do and say in relation to employees,
Stress the importance of team work at each level of the organization and
These companies give less emphasis on hierarchy and formal relationship rather; they adopt
flat organizational structure in terms of span of control. Johnson further states that these
service leaders can be recognized for:
A dedication to teamwork
1) Customer care ‘starts at the top’ was meaning that commitment to the principle of
customer care must emanate from senior management levels within an organization.
Successful management’ is not only about the right management style but also an
attitude, ethos or culture of the organization which overrides the management
techniques used, such that in the absence of other instructions these values will dictate
how an employee will behave.
2) ‘Customer care involves everyone’ within the organization. It is not just about front-
line staff. The contrary view ‘only services to reinforce the electricians’ or
administrators, opinion that the standard of service they give in support of the front-
line staff is not important. How can cleaners do the right job unless they fully
appreciate their customer’ needs and the importance of their role? High standards of
customer care cannot be achieved by ignoring seasonal, part time or voluntary staff
that represents the face of the business to many customers.
3) ‘Care for your staff and they will care for your customers. Too often organizations
look first to the customer, whereas the emphasis should be placed on the staff.
Improving the experience of the staff encourages a better service and a better
experience for customers. More customers are obtained thereby improving the climate
in which management and staff work. Investment and greater professionalism follow
success and the cycle of achievement is reinforced.’
4) ‘It’s a continuous’, meaning that ‘customer care is not a quick fix Research but it long
term plan’.
According to V S Mahesh “The nature, determinates and problem areas of service quality
within tourism points clearly to the central role of personnel, at all levels, in attaining levels,
of excellence in this respect. Development the service culture, within a company, and within
tourism industry, cans he seen as crucial to the success of tourism.” Hence, the activities of
an HRD manager in tourism can be categorized as:
Aspect like forecasting, recruiting and induction in the human resource area are taken care of
through human resource planning. The identification of specific developmental needs for the
manpower aimed at developing and exploiting the competencies of the human resources are
taken care of through human resource development.
In this Section, we will deal with certain aspects which are relevant for managers or
entrepreneurs at an organization’s level in the area of human resource planning. Human
resource planning can be termed as a process for preparing a plan for the future personnel
needs
of an organization. It takes into account the internal activities of the organization and the
external environmental factors. In a service industry like tourism, such planning also aims at
improving the quality of manpower resources. Human resource planning involves:
Planning for future needs taking into account how many people with what skills and at
what levels the organization will need, and
Planning for the development of the employees by adopting in-house training and
continuing education methods to upgrade the knowledge and skills of the employees.
RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION PROCEDURES IN HR
Recruitment and selection procedure is a vital factor of an organization. If it is not done
properly the production procedure will be hampered. Hence productivity will fall down. So
the organization will be in trouble and it will affect the employer- employee relationship. So
recruitment and selection procedure should be done in proper and correct manner. The new
candidates should replace the vacant post so that the production of the company does not
hamper. By this the productivity will increase and the organization will gain profit. So the
employer will be happy and will not hesitate to distribute bonus and increments to the
workers. The workers will also be more motivated to work. Hence there will be harmonious
relationship in the organization. It will also stabilize the organization in the long run.
organization.
nature of recruitment varies with the size, nature and environment of the
organization.
SOURCES OF RECRUITMENT:
Internal Sources:
Include-
The retired and retrenched employees who want to return to the company.
Press advertisements.
Campus Interviews.
Placement Agencies.
Recommendations.
Recruitment at factory gate.
Employment Exchanges.
SELECTION
Selection is the process of choosing the best candidate out of the all the applicants. In
this process, relevant information about the applicants is collected through a series of
steps so as to evaluate their suitability for the job to be filled.
It is the process of matching the qualifications with those required for the job so that
the candidate can be entrusted with the task that matches with his credibility. It is a
process of weeding out unsuitable candidates and finally identifying the most suitable
candidates. Selection is a negative process because in this process the management
tries to minimize the number of people at each step so that the final decision can be
in the light of all the factors and at the end of it best candidate is selected. Selected
candidate the has to pass through the following stages-
Preliminary Interview.
Application Form.
Selection Test.
Selection Interview.
Physical Examination.
Reference Check.
Final Approval.
Employment.
Preliminary Interview is the initial screening done to weed out the undesirable
candidates. This is mainly a sorting process in which the prospective candidates are
given the necessary information about the nature of the job and the organization.
Necessary information about the candidate is also taken. If the candidate is found
suitable then he is selected for further screening else he is dropped. This stage saves
the time and effort of both the company and the candidate. It avoids unnecessary
waiting for the candidate and waste of money for further processing of an unsuitable
candidate.
Application Form is a traditional and widely used device for collecting
information from candidates. This form asks the candidates to fill up the
necessary information regarding their basic information like name, address,
references, date of birth, marital status, educational qualifications, experience,
salary structure in previous organization and other such information. This form is
of great help because the scrutiny of this form helps to weed out candidate who
are lacking in education, experience or any other criterion provided by the
organization. It also helps in formulation of questions, which will be asked in the
interview. These forms can also be stored for future references thus maintaining a
databank of the applicants.
Selection Tests are being increasingly used in employee selection. Tests are
sample of some aspect of an individual's attitudes, behavior and performance. It
also provides a systematic basis for comparing two or more persons. The tests
help to reduce bias in selection by serving as a supplementary screening device.
These are also helpful in better matching of candidate and the job. These reveal
the qualifications, which remain covered in application form and interview.
Selection Interview involves the interaction of the employer and the employee.
Selection involves a personal, observational and face-to-face appraisal of
candidates for employment. It is an essential element of the selection procedure.
The information obtained through application form and test can be crosschecked
in the interview.
The applicants who have crossed the above stages have to go through Physical
Examination either by the company's physician or the medical officer approved
for the purpose. The main aim is to ensure that the candidate is physically fit to
perform the job. Those who are found physically unfit are rejected.
The next stage marks of checking the references. The applicant is asked to
mention in his application form the names and addresses of two or three person
who know him well. The organization contacts them by mail or telephone. They
are requested to provide their frank opinion about the candidate without incurring
a liability. The opinion of the references can be useful in judging the future
behavior and performance of a candidate.
The executives of the concerned departments then finally approve the candidates
short-listed by the human resource department. Employment is offered in the
form of an appointment letter mentioning the post, the rank, the salary grade, the
date by which the candidate should join and other terms and conditions in brief.
Appointment is generally made on probation of one or two years. After
satisfactory performance during this period the candidate is finally confirmed in
the job on permanent basis or regularized.

SUGGESTIONS & RECOMMENDATION
The research in HCL has helped me in broadening my view. It has helped me to know that
HR is the heart of every organization. It made me aware about how policies play an important
role in the smooth functioning of any organization. But I have found that there is something
that lacks in the company and which is possible to overcome.
HCL is engaged in making maximum sales, providing satisfaction to its customers, as well as
maintaining good relations with the corporate world. But it has not thought about marinating
a health relation with its employees. This is the reason that there was an increase in the labor
turnover. Also, it has never given consideration to find the reason lying behind the same.
Employee retention is crucial to the long-term success of your business and therefore the
ability to retain employees is a primary measure of the health of your organization. Of
significant concern is the fact that unplanned employee turnover directly impacts the bottom
line of a business.
The company can undertake the following steps to maintain long and existing relationship
with its employees as well as a steady increase in sales:-
CONCLUSION
CONCLUSION
REQUIREMENT:-
‘Necessity is the mother of Invention’ this is true everywhere. In the study first of all I
tried to find out the cause of the process of Recruitment and selection.
I got the answer from HCL that here in HCL major cause for the process is its Expansion
program as HCL is growing vastly. Few other reasons are Replacement vacancy Retirement
hardly takes place here.
SOURCES:-
An organization’s excellence depends upon its employee’s performance, which has not
only to be maintained on a consistent level, but also must be improved constantly. All this
can be achieved if suitable employees are selected, through proper Recruitment and
Selection procedure .They also provide college campus recruitment.
METHODS:-
For the recruitment and selection various test include for e.g. aptitude test, personality test
and group discussion. As we all know that, in today’s highly competitive age the biggest
problem is of retention of its highly skilled employees in the organization. Recruitment
plays a vital role in this regard. But it should be seen that no system is without any flaws.
Every system has its strong and weak points and is open for change at any time.
IMPROVEMENT:-
HCL a well-developed Selection System for its employee’s development. Thus, the
company provides scope for employees on future growth, career planning, training and
development.
CHAPTER -11
LIMITATIONS
LIMITATIONS
The scope of the study in terms of coverage is limited to the Delhi operations of the HCL
Within the organization the study is limited to the top-level management of the Personnel
Department of the organization (out of which samples of the respondents are also
members of the Recruitment & Selection committee). This is for the purpose of
administering the questionnaire.
In line with the purpose of conducting employee interviews, the study would be confined
to personnel holding typical designations within the organization at different levels of
management.
Although the limitations that I faced in the organizations is the absence of Trade Unions
co-operation, otherwise which could have help me in understanding the industrial
relations in a comprehensive manner.
Secondly, the limitation that I have is the scope of collection of sample size which was
confined to only one department, which would have other wise made my study and
observations in an effective manner.
