Soda ash (chemical name sodium carbonate) is the basic input for glass, delegates (especially popular/low priced detergents), silicates (silica based chemicals, stylists, gets, certain other cleaning, water purification and pigments) and certain other chemicals. In India the major demand comes from the glass industry soda ash id of light and dense verity. The light verity (lsa) finds application in detergents, whereas the dense verity (dsa) is used in glass manufacturing. Globally natural soda ash is mined in USA and Kenya while synthetic plants are located in Europe, china, and India. In India the production capacities are concentrated in saurashtra region of Gujarat, due to easy availability of key raw materials (sell and chemicals grade limestone) and proximity to major markets.
Soda ash consumption in India is almost 40% of demand (entirely in the from of L.S.A.) glass accounts for 23% (entirely in the form of D.S.A.) chemicals 17% silicate 10% and through trade 10%.

NTRODUCTION
The most valuable assets of any organization are human being at work. Human Resource Management (HRM) is a management function concerned with hiring, motivating, and maintaining people in an organization. HRM focuses on people in organizations.
Personnel Management has limited scope and inverted orientation. The main function of the personnel department is to maintain the human resource of persons at work. The main aim of the personnel department is to keep smooth relationship between the employers and employees in the organization.
HRM is a broad concept. Personnel Management (PM) and Human Resource Development (HRD) are a part of HRM. Essentially, HRD is a function more concerned with training and development, career planning and development, and organizational development.
HRM has four objectives, namely (i) Societal, (ii) Organizational, (iii) Functional, and (iv) Personal.
An organization must have set policies, definite procedures and well defined principles relating to its personnel. These contribute to the effectiveness, continuity and stability of the organization. GHCL Ltd. has very smooth and effective relationship with their employees. The environment of the firm is very friendly.
Page 47
Scope of HRM without a doubt is vast. All the activities of employee, from the time of his entry into an organization until he leaves, come under the horizon of HRM.
The divisions included in HRM are Recruitment, Payroll, Performance Management, Training and Development, Retention, Industrial Relation, etc. Out of all these divisions, one such important division is training and development. TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT is a subsystem of an organization. It ensures that randomness is reduced and learning or behavioral change takes place in structured format.
Hence I have taken this topic for my project. My project deals with training and development of the employees at GHCL limited.
Following are the areas of Training & Development I tried to cover-up in my work. 1) Studying training activities 2) Analyzing training programme 3) Evaluating the training. The study shows the scope in the field of T & D ranges rights from recruiting an employee at any level and how to treat them throughout their working year till the time he discharged or retired from the organization.
Page 48
RECRUITMENT
Recruitment involves attracting and obtaining as many applications as possible from eligible job seekers. Recruitment need arises when replacement / vacancy needs to be filled up or when the new requirement arises. The requirement is put up through a Manpower Requisition Form, which is filled up by the respective Department Head, approved by Sr. ED (O), and sent to Head Office- Corporate HR.... The methods adopted in GHCL Limited for recruitment are as below: Advertisement in news papers Placement Consultants Campus recruitment
Advertisement in newspaper For advertisement, not all regions are selected. Only those regions are selected from which the selection of the candidate has to be made. The medium of newspaper is selected based on the required candidates profiles. Placement Consultants The profiles of the required position are sought from the placement consultancy services and scrutinized by the respective department heads and HR finalized the candidates to be called for interview.
. Campus recruitment (only for trainees)
Company goes to the selected colleges and from there the students are selected after taking their interview.
Page 49
SELECTION
Selection is the process of differentiating between applicants in order to identify and hire those with a greater likelihood of success in a job.
Two alternative methods of selection are participative selection and employee leasing. In participative selection, subordinates participate in selection of their co-employees. Employee leasing represents the leasing of employees by a client Company from a third party.
At Plant level (in GHCL), the selection process is carried out after getting the list of candidates from the consultants. The short listing of candidates is carried out and they are called for the interview. Here the interview is carried out in three steps:
That is, first, the candidate has to pass the technical exam, and then accordingly the HR department will select a candidate who is much suitable for the vacancy and at last, the Plant Head finalizes the candidate.
After the finalization of the candidate from all the three rounds, the salary part is negotiated and finalized by HR department.
Page 50
Orientation is a systematic and planned introduction of employees to their jobs, their co-workers and the organization. It is also called induction. Organizations are known to spend a few weeks or even months on orientation programs. The idea is to make the employees feel comfortable and settle in the new environment.
Induction helps in overcoming the problems like comfort in new working culture, new environment, etc. Once an employee is selected and placed on an appropriate job, the process of familiarizing him with the job and the organization begins. This is called induction.
In GHCL Ltd., once an employee is selected, he is placed on a suitable job. Putting the right employee at the right place is very important. This increases the performance & productivity of the concerned employee and gives the employee immense job satisfaction, which also reduced the employee turnover. After allocating the selected candidates with proper jobs, it is necessary to make him / her familiar with the job, the Company and the other employees.
In GHCL Limited, the new incumbent undergoes orientation program for one to two weeks and then is placed to his job to start his / her work with enthusiasm to achieve organizational as well as personal goals.
Page 51
PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL
Performance Appraisal is the systematic evaluation of the individual with respect to his or her performance on the job and his or her potential for development. It is an objective assessment of an individuals performance against well-defined benchmarks. Performance appraisal offers gives advantage to the Management for improving performance of the employee, helping him to take responsibility, minimizing job dissatisfaction / employee turnover and ensuring consistency.
Performance appraisal is mainly used for three purposes: 1. For giving reward such as salary, increments, promotion. 2. To identify weakness of the employees and to spot the areas where he / she needs to be developed. 3. For training need identification of the employee

IMPORTANCE
Training and development is a routine based, non-stop practice, which a growing business organization must conduct to achieve production target, good cultural change, enhance the productivity of the employees. From organizational point of view training is a very important aspect which assures the quality, quantity, and effectiveness etc of the product, out put of employees. Development of the employee comes handy with training activities, making them much more capable in performing various activities as a professionals and arriving accuracy by using advance technical/mechanical tools and equipments.
As a management trainee I myself come through various aspects like performance appraisal, payroll management, labors related laws and issues etc during my training and development project. Evaluating the productivity of the employees can very well recognize how to distribute your workforce. This information gathered after conducting training programme which is immensely helpful for the human resources manager and the whole department.
Training helps measure the performance of the employees by evaluating the training given and comparing the individual and group's latest output with the output given before training programme.

On-the-job training:
president gets some on-the-job training, when he joins a firm. Under this method, an employee is placed in a new job and is told how it may be performed. It is primarily concerned with developing is an employee skills and habits consistent with the existing practices of an organization, and with orienting him to his immediate problems.
2.
Vestibule training
method attempts to duplicate on-the-job situation in a company classroom. It is a classroom training which is often imparted with the help of equipment and machines which are identical with those in use in the place of work. This methods enables the trainee to concentrate on learning the new skill rather than on performing an actual job. Theoretical training is given in the classroom while the practical work is conducted on the production line. It is a very efficient technique of training semi skilled personnel e.g. clerk, machine operation, testers, typists etc. Training is in the form of lectures, conferences, case studies, role-playing and discussion.

the trainer describes and displays. When he teaches an employee how to do something by actually performing activities himself and by going through a stepby-explanation of why and what he is doing. Demonstrations are effective techniques in teaching as it is easier to show a person how to do a job then to tell him or ask him to gather instruction from the reading material. Demonstrations are often used in combination with lectures, pictures, text materials, discussions etc.
4.
Simulation:
encountered on a job. Trainees interest and employees motivation are high in simulation exercises because he actions of a trainee closely duplicate the real job conditions. This method is essential in cases in which actual on-the-job practice might result in a serious injury, a costly errors. This technique is a very expensive one.

Training needs assessment diagnoses present problems and future challenges to be met through training and development. Organization spends vast sum of money on training and development. Before using such huge resources, organizations will assess the training needs of their employees. Organizations that implement training programs without conducting needs assessment may be making errors. By doing the Training need assessment the Management can get the feedback of the employee in respect to job satisfaction, training expectation, opinion on the benefits / infrastructure provided by the Company, etc. On the basis of such analysis the training can be calendared in group wise across the Company.
In GHCL Limited, training needs are identified by HR department through different methods. After assessment of training needs of the employees the requisite training are arranged at different levels either in-house or through external faculties.
After imparting trainings to the employees, the feedback is obtained and its effectiveness is evaluated. In GHCL, safety training is must for every employee and is compulsory given to new recruiters.
Page 68
Training refers to the process of imparting specific skills. Development refers to the learning opportunities design to help employees grow. In simple terms, training and development refer to the imparting of specific skills, abilities and knowledge to an employee. Training in GHCL Ltd. is given in two types:
1. Behavioral 2. Technical
1. Behavioral Training
Earlier the training need identification was a part of the performance appraisal system, form that was filled up by the HOD / Immediate Supervisor in the executive group. Presently training need forms are given to the executives. Then it is analyzed that how many people are interested for training and which training they require. After that, faculty is arranged from outside / in- house for the scheduled training program. The external training is provided mainly away from the work place so that the participants can have the training without any disturbance.
Page 69
2. Technical Training
For technical training, faculty comes from manufacturing Company itself, as they are well known with the parts of the machine & its perfect functioning, which are supplied to GHCL Company. Also on job, training is given to the technical employees.
Respective participants who get the feedback on the faculty, topic of the training, presentation, etc, fill the feed back form. After three months of the training feedback is received from the employee who has participated in the training program or else from the immediate superior / HOD. For supervisor, supervisory development
training is given. On an average two training is being provided to every employee per year.
These both kinds of training are provide to improve such aspects. Attitude Team building Motivation Technical skill Interpersonal skill Self development Personal hygiene
Sometimes faculties from outside are called upon for conducting programs inside the plant.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
When the candidates are recruited from outside or selected, promoted from inside, it is expected that they must perform their jobs with maximum efficiency and competence. Therefore after selecting the candidates, the next logical step is to train them for better performance. Era of vocational training started during industrial revolution, which took place in Britain in 18th century. The apprentices working n different factories use to get vocational training in the form of direct instructions in the operation of machines. Thereafter especially when use of computers, automatic machines increased and because of rapidly changing techniques the need of training is recognized as one of the most important organizational activities.
Page 74
Training is required to be given to employees to keep them updated effective and efficient. At present, it is observed that all organizations, of whatever types they may be, need to have well trained experienced and skilled people to perform various activities. If current job occupants meet this requirement, in that case, training is not important but if it is not the case, it is very essential to raise the skill levels, increase the versatility and adaptability of the job occupants by giving them necessary and appropriate training.

RESEARCH STUDY
RESEARCH DESIGN
A research design is a type of blueprint prepared on various types of blueprints available for the collection, measurement and analysis of data. A research design calls for developing the most efficient plan of gathering the needed information. The design of a research study is based on the purpose of the study. A research design is the specification of methods and procedures for acquiring the information needed. It is the overall pattern or framework of the project that stipulates what information is to be collected from which source and by what procedures.
Page 78
SAMPLING
An integral component of a research design is the sampling plan. Specifically, it addresses three questions whom to survey (The Sample Unit) How many to Survey (The Sample Size) & How to select them (The Sampling Procedure) Making a census study of the whole universe will be impossible on the account of limitations of time. Hence sampling becomes inevitable. A sample is only a portion of the total employee strength. According to Yule, a famous statistician, the object of sampling is to get maximum information about the parent population with minimum effort.
Page 79
METHODS OF SAMPLING
PROBABILITY SAMPLING
Is also known as random sampling or chance sampling .Under this sampling design every individual in the organization has an equal chance, or probability, of being chosen as a sample. This implies that the section of sample items is independent of he persons making the study that is, the sampling operation is controlled objectively so that the items will be chosen strictly at random.
Page 80
Collection of data is the first step in statistics. The data collection process follows the formulation for research design including the sample plan. The data can be secondary or primary.
through personal interviews. I have collected primary data by the means of a Questionnaire. The Questionnaire was formulated keeping in mind the objectives of the research study.
SECONDARY DATA means data that is already available i.e., they refer to
data, which has already been collected and analyzed by someone else. When a secondary data is used, the researcher has to look into various sources from where he can obtain data. This includes information from various books, periodicals, magazines etc.

Training is so crucial that there is no need to mention its significance to the organization and as well as to the individual employees. Training begins right from the
Page 85
recruitment of an employee and follows thought the life span of the job of each employee of that organization.
Training has bundles of numbers of actions to be performed in daily routine work and hence lot of quality, efficiency depends upon the performance level of the employee.
Organization are very keen as far as training of employees are concerned and are always ready to spend what it takes to train and develop the employees in best concerned with the favor of the organization.
Here we come to know the willingness of the organization regarding the employees and the cost they are bearing for that purpose. A good management always tries to cut down the unnecessary and unwanted expenditure of money. Hence if this area of management is taken care of and a very well planned and a highly systematic initiative can result in heavy saving, in other words earning a healthy profit.

INTERPRETATION: Most of the employees in the surveyed group are those with good years of experience and are having a long term association with this Organization. The Organization has also completed approx 26 years since its inception. The recruitment procedure is a moderate affair for some department due to employee separation and at times it becomes difficult to get skilled employees due to competitive market where good skilled personnel are in high demand, which makes the candidates choosy while going for a change.

SUGGESTION

SUGGESTION
The company should give the compensation as per to the skills, so that the employees could do the efficient work. Organizations must enhance work force motivation to improve productivity. Workers must be encouraged and motivated to develop a customer satisfaction mind set. Organizations need to empower their workers by allowing them greater authority and Control and to design jobs that are more stimulating. This will enhance the personal productivity. Interdependency of different departments should be well studied, co-ordinate for effective output. Training schedule is worked out well here with proper planning schedule. Recruitment proper planned, structured according to openings in plant, new vacancies. The employee goals are well studied and structured. The Key Related Areas are properly designed & clearly mentioned to employees. The trainings should be planned with the involvement of the employees as well (not only the team leaders) so that there are no low yield trainings being held. This would cut down the costs of training further.
