Throughout the decade of existence Texeurop (BD) Ltd concentrated on specializing in the production of a single item, the RMG, and created our own niche in the market. It encompasses the successful continuation of the garments industry of Bangladesh in the post-MFA era, when free market will reign and demographic restraints and preferential treatment will become obsolete. Texeurop (BD) Ltd post MFA strategy is based on quality and reliability supported by large production capacities, backward linkage, professional management, refined technology, and market-oriented value-added basics.

Present scenario of job satisfaction of employees in various fields of the country is not upto the standard rating. This study has been conducted to measure the employee satisfaction level in Texeurop (BD) Ltd and to depict the areas where the employees are dissatisfied.

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

Job satisfaction plays a very important role in any department of an organization. It is the very effective drive that force or triggers the employees toward achieving the stated organization’s goals. Human Resource Management Practice (HRMP) is an indispensable and inevitable part of every organization in the dynamic environment of the current world. The report includes as a research problem the ‘Analysis of Job Satisfaction Through Human Resource Management Practices’ of Texeurop (BD) Ltd.

The researcher intended to know what the field forces want from the management. The researcher taken into consideration all the staffs, permanent (skilled, semiskilled and unskilled) and temporary employees and asked for their wants and complains considering conveniences. The researcher interviewed management authority about their feeling regarding the existing performance.

 LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY

The study is not free from some practical limitations. The researcher has to face following limitations during the study and time of working and data collection.

a)      Time is the main limitation for my study. Due to lack of sufficient time, the researcher could not survey all the employees. The researcher gone for random     sampling. Workload of the workers during the interview at work place is also a barrier to get complete information to prepare this report. A researcher error may have also happened during defining the population, sampling and data analysis. That’s why findings may not be fully but partially true.

b)      Some of the data are collected from secondary sources because relevant data sources are hard to find out. There may have response error. Respondent may unwilling to response or may be biased.

c)      There may have interview error. The researcher may have questioning error or recording error due to lack of proper communication. So the filtering of accurate information will be complex.

d)     Performance can be evaluated on many factors but due to lack of time the researcher concentrated mainly on employee satisfaction.

METHODOLOGY

Focus Group for Research:

Staffs, Skilled, Semi skilled, Unskilled, Production personnel are the key force of Texeurop (BD) Ltd and they are the focus group for the research. Office personnel and all who are associated with Texeurop (BD) Ltd were also brought into consideration.

Source of Data:

The study considered two types of data, they are:

1. Primary data
2. Secondary data

 Primary Sources:

i.  Direct interview & Conversation

ii. Expert opinion

iii. Observation

iv. Informal conversation with the staffs of the organization

Secondary Sources:

i. Relevant papers and publication and annual report

ii. Manuals of different departments

iii. Office memo

iv. Various books, periodical seminar papers, training papers, manuals, modules, etc. related to the topic

Sampling Plan:

Study Population:

All the work forces of Texeurop (BD) Ltd were the targeted population of this study. The Foremen, charge men, skilled, semi skilled, unskilled, permanent employees, temporary employees, production personnel, office personnel even management will be benefited from the study result. The current work forces (including Foremen, Charge men, skilled, semi skilled, unskilled, employees) of Texeurop (BD) Ltd are 1600.

Sampling Methods:

To analyze the management system the sampling units were selected through convenience sampling. Due to their internal commitment all the employee of the shops and departments could not be found at a time so interview was taken at their convenience time. The reason behind choosing Convenience sampling is many but here most importantly, the procedure is time saving, inexpensive and easy to communicate.

Sample size:

For determining sample size following formula will be used.

n= (N.z.p.q) / (N.d+z.p.q)       ————-(2.1)

where,

n =desired sample size,

N=population size,

z=standard normal deviation

p=the proportion in the target population estimated to have particular characteristics

q=1-p

d=degree of accuracy

Sample size of Managerial level:

Total number of managerial persons are existing of 50.  Confidence level is 90%, so the value of z=1.65 and degree of accuracy, d=10%=.10,  the value of p is taken as 0.5.  At this level of probability the number of sample size is highest.

So, q=.1-.05=.05

There for,

              (50 * 1.65 *.5 *.5)

n =                                                  = 29

                  (50 * .10 +1.65*.5*.5)

 Sample size of others:

Except 50 of managerial persons.  I determined others 1,550 persons within homogeneous group.

So, sample size of this homogeneous group determined at,

            (1,550 * 1.65 *.5 *.5)

n =

               (1,550 * .10 +1.65*.5*.5)

         = 65

 So, with in 65, it has been determined others as following way:

 Methods of Collecting Data:

The report is a descriptive event. Therefore, there is no option to use statistical tools, paradigm and formula. For this reason the data collection method are used by the following way.

Questionnaire:

A pre-designed questionnaire was used to collect the information from the respondents, i.e. the workers of the company.

Face to face interview:

Probably the best technique for collecting data is the completion of a questionnaire during a face-to-face interview.

Country Competitive Advantage

General System of Preference (GSP):

Sweaters manufactured in Bangladesh are considered as originating from Bangladesh for GSP purposes irrespective of the country of origin of the yarn. A major incentive for importers is therefore feasible through duty free access to the European Union (EU).

Bangladesh enjoys a favored status in textile trade with EU and its apparel exports are quota-free to Europe. This compares favorably to other major supplier countries like India, China and ASEAN member states.

Canada has also granted duty and quota free access to Bangladeshi apparel, including RMGs, to its market.

FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS

HR PLANNING & FORECASTING

In Texeurop (BD) Ltd employment or personnel, planning is done in two basic levels.

First, the top management of the group selects the top managerial positions like the positions of Chief Operating Officer, Factory manager or Plant Manager of a new factory. Most of the cases these positions are offered to foreign nationals from Sri Lanka or India. After having the employment, the person takes responsibility to plan and forecast the personnel need for his factory and forward it to the HR department for recruitment and selection.

Second, HRD then examines the supply of inside candidates and the supply of outside candidates before starting the recruitment and selection process.

 RECRUITMENT & SELECTION, APPOINTMENT & CONFIRMATION

Texeurop (BD) Ltd entertains a discrimination free hiring policy. All recruitment policies within the organization are in line with the labour laws of Bangladesh and company procedure. The following are some basic guidelines followed for recruitment:

–               Education to match the specific job that a candidate is being hired for.

–               Behavioral attributes required for the execution of the job tasks.

–               Age limit to be followed as per the labour law in Bangladesh.

–               Experience and skills, if any, required for the specific job.

–               Health and fitness to be considered as per the lob requirements.

–               Candidates with any record of convicted felony/crime will not be considered for hire.

Requisition for personnel:

The relevant department head completing a Personnel Requisition Form and submitting it to HR initiate the Executive selection procedure. There are two types of Personnel Requisition Forms:

–               “Requisition for Manpower replacement” (form no. F002, attached to the appendix) is used when the recruitment is for filling an existing vacancy as per the approved Organization Chart.

–               “Requisition for Additional Manpower” (form no. F001, attached to the appendix) is needed when the department is requesting for Executive that is in addition to the currently approved strength shown on the approved Organization Chart. This form is used for all additional Executive, even if the new position has received prior budgetary approval.

The form for replacement or additional Executive is initiated by the Head of the Department, and is to be endorsed by the Managing Director and approved by the  Chairman of the Industry.

While requisitioning for additional manpower, the department head must provide a document containing job description for the new post and also provide justification for the requisition.

Assignment or Opening of a Requisition Number:

A Requisition Number is used for tracking hiring activities, to facilitate job posting and Resume/CV screening using software devices, and to collect statistical data over a long period.

Once HRD receives an approved Requisition Form from the department, they assign the Requisition Number as per guidelines. The Requisition Number is written on the top and the bottom part of the Requisition Form. Then HR tears off the bottom part of the form and sends it to the requisitioning department as their copy.

The following rule is used to generate a Requisition Number:

2008Texeurop (BD) Ltd SLProd.= 05Executive=18105100008

Therefore, this Requisition Number is 8105100008

Closing of Requisition:

Once the hiring is complete for Executive Staff and the HRD receives the Employee Joining Report (form F016, attached to the appendix), the requisition posted for that job position will be closed in the HR Requisition Tracking System.

In case, any department decides not to hire any individual against an open Requisition, the department head would notify the HRD in writing through e-mail to close the Requisition and HR will take necessary steps to close the open Requisition.

A Requisition cannot stay open for more than 2 months. This means the HRD must take quick actions to complete all necessary steps for the recruitment. After 2 months if the department would still like to hire an individual, then a new Requisition will be assigned or the same requisition will be reopened. An old requisition that had been closed can only be reopened for a similar job position; if the new job requirements are different, then a new requisition must be opened.

Advertisement for Vacancies:

Upon receipt of an approved personnel requisition form, if the vacancy cannot be filled from within company and no such match is found in the HR CV/Resume Bank, HR drafts an advertisement for the executives in consultation with the Departmental Head who requested for the manpower. After getting approval from the  Chairman, HRD places the advertisement in selected newspapers.

 Application in response to advertisement:

Applications from prospective candidates are received by HRD, placed in a file and sent to the concerned Department Head for scrutiny. Candidates who appear to fulfill the job requirements are short-listed and the Department Head requests HR to call them for selection test and/or interview.

Upon completion of the above basic screening process, successful candidates are sent to the requisitioning department for an interview.

Written test for candidates:

HRD may choose to take a written test for the candidates applying for the position as part of the initial screening process.  The HRD prepares the questionnaires afresh for each of these tests and administers the tests. Upon completion of the tests, all test papers of the candidates are forwarded to the Departmental Head for evaluation.

 Interview of candidates:

The HRD based on the job requirements screens the Resumes/CVs in order to find close matches and compiles a short list of candidates to be called for an interview. The HRD is responsible for contacting the candidates, arranging for interviews, and coordinating with the requisitioning Department Head. The following are some specific policies for forming an Interview Board.

The check-up is done either by the company doctor, if available, or by the company’s recommended doctor. Prior to medical examination by the doctor, the new appointees are required to complete a medical questionnaire.

 Joining Report

New employees are required to submit their Joining Report to the concerned Departmental Head on the first day of reporting to the job. The form “Employee Joining Report” is then signed by the employee and the employee’s immediate supervisor, and through the Department Head, is sent to the HRD.

Upon receiving the Joining Report of an Executive, HRD sends out a circular of the organization abut the new joining. In addition, HRD assigns an Employee Code, collects a photograph from the new employee, and issue an Employee Identification Card within one/two weeks of joining.

Intimation to Finance Department:

The HRD on 1^st day of every month will inform Head of Accounts & Finance Department the joining dates of all the new employees of that month, their gross salaries along with income tax deduction information with confidential mark after completion of above-mentioned procedure. The Accounts & Finance Department is responsible for setting up the new employees’ record on the payroll system.

 Employee orientation:

An employee’s orientation to his department or business group is an excellent way to help employees make a complete transition to the company.

Texeurop (BD) Ltd follows various induction methods and schedules based on the nature of the employment and department’s business functions.

Orientation programs are more than just an opportunity to tell the employee what is expected. It is a great way to show where person fits into the group as a whole.  The various components of Texeurop (BD) Ltd orientation program ensure that the transition into the company and into the specific department happens smoothly without having a great deal of pain associated with the change process.

An orientation class is facilitated by the personnel from the HRD. The new employee orientation class covers the following:

–               Texeurop (BD) Ltd Philosophy

–               Texeurop (BD) Ltd Vision

–               Brief overview of the five organizations under Texeurop (BD) Ltd, covering products, markets, and competitors

–               Key notes from the HR Management Guide

The department head of the new employee specifies the date/s the individual would receive overview of each department /section and the responsibility of the person who would provide the overview to the new employee. The following guideline is followed in the new employee orientation program:

–               Department/s of the production units

–               Laboratory, QC, and inspection

–               Production Planning

–               Customer Compliant Handling

–               Marketing- customer handling, selling

–               Commercial Department

–               Procurement

–               Warehouse

–               Accounts & Finance Department

–               Factory Information System

–               Systems/Training/IT/Personnel & Admin

Confirmation of new employee:

New employees are confirmed in their appointment after successful completion of the probationary period stipulated in the Appointment Letter. The normal length of probationary period is as follows:

– For grade S1 and above        : 3 (three) months

– For grade M1 to M6                         : 6 (six) months

 Performance management during probation period:

Probationary period is the most critical and important time for an employee. It is also a time that, if managed properly by an a\organization, the potential of an individual is consciously realized and in most cases learning is accelerated to make the individual successful his/her job, ensuring a good return on investment for the company.

Texeurop (BD) Ltd follows the Employee Orientation program as a rule of thumb for the development of an employee. However, since the need varies widely depending on the department functions, it may not be adequate for continuously improving employee performance.

The immediate supervisor and the Department Head must have a set plan for all new employees to facilitate a successful completion of probationary period. There should be adequate documentation of coaching (also proof for efforts towards execution of development plan for the Executives) by the immediate supervisor for all unsuccessful probationary employees.  These guidelines are incorporated to ensure that the initial investment on new employees by Texeurop (BD) Ltd is not wasted and immediate supervisors put adequate efforts to have a win-win outcome.

 Reference from previous employer:

As soon as possible after the appointment of the new employee and, in any case well before the end of the probationary period, HRD obtains references from the employee’s previous employers on the “Reference Verification Form”. The replies received are kept in the personal file of the employee.

In case of unfavorable replies received, the statements made by the employers are investigated and, if they are found to be true, a decision is taken in consultation with the

Department Head and, if necessary, with senior management whether the services of the employee in question are to be terminated or not before the end of the probationary period.

Probationary review and issuance of confirmation letter:

Before the end of the probationary period, HRD sends to the new employee’s Department Head the form “Probationary Evaluation Report”, after completing the top section. This form is then completed and signed by the employee’s immediate supervisor and the Department Head, and sent back to HRD at least 1 week before the end of the probationary period.

Based on the recommendations contained in the evaluation report, the HRD will take approval from the Vice Chairman and will take any of the following actions:

–               Confirm the employee in his / her job by providing service Confirmation Letter.

–               Extend the probationary period by providing Probation Extension letter.

–               Terminate the services of the employee by providing Termination letter.

Normally the salary of the employee is not revised at the time of confirmation. However, if the employee’s joining date is between July 1^st and December 31^st, one normal increment is given to the employee in consultation with the Department Head. This is done to avoid the situation whereby the employee has to wait more than 15 months before he gets his first increment. Exceptional increments, i.e., other than one normal increment, maybe given at this stage to deserving cases only, with the approval of concerned department head.

Such exceptional increments can also be given in cases where the employee was initially recruited at a salary lower than the one he would be normally entitled to.

 Maximum working hours

Due to the need of the organization, it may require an Executive to work more than their normal hours of duty. However, longer hours may not mean higher productivity based on many researches done on this subject.

After complying all the management staff’s attendance, HRD forward the same to the Payroll Section of the Accounts & Finance department on the second day of every month.

Overtime procedure

Eligibility of overtime/holiday allowance

Texeurop (BD) Ltd does not encourage overtime since it takes personal time away from an employee. So, Texeurop (BD) Ltd  advises to all departments to ensure that an effective manpower plan is available and in operation in order to facilitate business smoothly. But sometimes, in order to achieve departmental targets, due to urgent situations, overtime may required to meet the business needs. Only workers and supervisory staffs are eligible for receiving the overtime allowance. There is no provision for overtime for the Executive Staff.

Approvals and reporting

Overtime work is normally authorized in writing prior to the event, but in cases of emergency and in cases where an employee is required to work overtime in place of somebody who is absent unexpectedly, the Department Head may give verbal approval, acting immediately to initiate the documents of authorization.

The management personnel, under whose guidance the employee/s will be performing the extra work, complete an “Overtime Request Form” to initiate the overtime request. The form is then forwarded to the HRD for the approval and, where necessary, for the approval of the factory in-charge. In cases where the decision of overtime is made at night and if the dept. head and/or the factory in-charge is not present at the time, approval may be taken on the following workday.

The Department Head must ensure that all overtime requests and approvals are subject to meeting the maximum allowable working hours as per labor laws.

At the end of each week, the Department Head will complete an Overtime Reporting form if there was any overtime work done in the department, and submit to Personnel & Admin department. This form with OT information must reach the admin department by Monday each week or, for the last week of the month, within two days after the end of the month. If prior authorization was not taken for any reported overtime on this form, then the Overtime Reporting form must be signed by the Factory In-Charge (Operation In-Charge) or by the Department Head where it is for the non-production worker.

Overtime rates

The company pays overtime to the personnel of above grade levels at the rate of “Double the Basic Salary” using the following calculation procedure:

Overtime rate              = (Basic x 2) / 208

Total Overtime            = Overtime Rate x OT Hours

 TERMINATION OF SERVICES

Resignation

An employee who wants to resign from the company’s service is required to give 30 days notice as stipulated in his/her appointment letter failing that, to surrender pay in lieu of the notice period.

The employee submits his/her letter of resignation  to the HRD through Department Head, who calls the employee for a discussion and, particularly, if the employee in question is a good performer, tries to determine if the cause of the resignation is a genuine problem which can be resolved. If, after this interview, the employee still wants to resign, the Department Head accept the resignation and forward it to the HRD along with details of the discussion, comments mentioned in “Employee Separation Interview Form”

All possible efforts are made to see that genuine problems of employees with good performance are resolved and that they do not resign from the company’s service because of those problems. However, if the employee is still adamant upon resigning even after the second meeting, HRD issues a letter to the effect that his resignation has been accepted. After acceptance of resignation, HRD circulates a “Final Settlement Form” to all relevant departments and obtain necessary clearance for settlement of dues, if any, with the out going employee. The HRD completes all relevant formalities and completes the termination.

Once a resignation is submitted, the concerned department head takes extra caution to approving leaves during the notice period. Sick Leave, during the notice period, can only be given with proper medical certificates. Casual leave can only be given during this period only if the reason is valid and approved with prior notice. Casual leave can be granted for a maximum of 3 days during the notice period. Earned may not be granted since the provision of notice period is specially designed for recruiting a replacement and it is highly desired that the individual who is leaving would train the newly hired person for the position. If Earned Leave is granted, then training a new person may not happen. So, as a guideline, approving Earned leave for an employee who is leaving, is totally discouraged.

If and when any type of leave is granted to an individual, to be eligible for that approved leave, s/he must work the last day of the notice period. Failure to work on the last day of the notice period, the employee will not receive any leave benefit, even if the leave was previously approved.

 Dismissal

No notice or salary in lieu thereof is required in cases where an employee is dismissed because of misconduct. Before any action is taken on acts of misconducts, the employee concerned is informed in writing as to the charges against him/her and given an opportunity to explain and clarify his/her position. The employee’s departmental head is also consulted in this regard.

Instead of directly issuing a dismissal letter, based on the employee’s reply, the management may also take one of the following actions:

–               Issue a warning letter.

–               Issue a charge sheet.

–               Issue a show cause notice.

All the above letters and the final termination letter are issued by the HRD.

Depending upon the decision of the management, dismissal from the company’s may be with or without the payment of full termination benefits. In the later case, the employee is paid the following:

–               Employee’s contribution to the Provided Fund

–               Such unpaid salary as is due to him/her

–               Encashment of unused Annual Leave balance if any

Termination

The employer may terminate the service of any permanent employee without giving any reasons if the employer does the followings:

–               Give 30 days notice or pay the equivalent gross average salary

–               Pay any other benefits that the employee has become entitled to due to the length of the employment
