It is necessary to respect and evaluate Human Resource Management activities for building an efficient, motivated and satisfied employee base. It is human resource department, which can uplift a company’s image, profitability and market share if it wants.  No organization can prosper without a loyal, self-motivated and committed workforce. The purpose of this project is to get a practical exposure of training and development procedure, so that as a future manager we can carry out our day-to-day management responsibilities properly. By doing this project we are now able to compare what we have learned all through our course with the realistic corporate world. Project work has a significant magnitude in training and development (T&D). By doing this project we learn how to develop group cohesive for meeting the common purpose of the project. HRM requires thought and planning, where the effort is invisible and the results often taken for granted. T&D relies on a combination of tools and techniques, which enable an individual or team to plan training, schedule, co-ordinate, monitor, evaluate training and implement according to carefully planned and specified goals of training. Businesses are beginning to understand the value of good project management – as long as it represents good value for money and doesn’t absorb huge amounts of time for the organization.

Technology and motivated employees training Policy, instructions, and human resource are keys to development. To strive provide the best knowledge to governments, intuitions and enterprises, respectively, in developing countries.

Their mission is to provide service to the consumer with the help of a skilled and devoted work force whose resource full talents; innovating actions and competitive edge make their position unique and giving quality service to all individuals and instructions that they care. Customers are the most important factor to them and as they care for them most since they consider them as a part of its family.

While writing this business paper we faced a lot of limitations, problems and barriers. The first barrier was time to collect all the data on human resources activities of NEKO CONSUMER PRODUCT LTD. None of the employee would like to disclose any crucial information as they thought it would make their life worse if their supervisor know about it. The third problem that we faced was we had no such experience on doing a business paper on such an issue like human resource management. So naturally our research is not up to the standard, as we wanted it to be.

We have used both primary and secondary data in our report.

  • We took an interview of the HR Manager of NEKO consumer goods (head office, UTTARA) from this interview we could collect useful and course-oriented T&D information’s.
  • We collected some secondary data from books, internet.s NEKO consumer product website.

NEKO consumer product ltd started its operation Bangladesh In 2001 operation as an individual company. Within a very short span of time NEKO consumer product ltd has already drawn the attention of the consumers by providing quality products and preferred services. Out dedication to quality, uniform products, customer service and competitive prices have given us unique position in the market.

New products are continuously being developed and evaluated for our growing market. NEKO consumer product ltd the raw materials are preserved in a well-organized storage facility with ensures proper ventilation. NEKO consumer product ltd. is in the process of achieving ISO-9001:2000 and HACCP certification to follow strict quality policies as per CODEX.

Functions of Different Departments

NEKO consumer product ltd has the different types of different those are doing the technical capabilities in processing, post-harvest handling, maintaining of each department.

Since the HRM Dept. of an organization does the planning for the organization, jobs and people, the decisions taken by all other departments (such as Finance, Sales and Marketing etc.) are closely related to this department.

One of the primary jobs of HRM is the formulation of a recruitment and selection policy commensurate with the organizational policy and mission of the organization. A well designed recruitment and selection procedure ensures the selection and recruitment of qualified candidates for job vacancies within the organization. This process differs from organization to organization.

However, induction of new employee to an organization is a vital issue for all the organizations.

Under qualified recruited employees may jeopardize the objectives of the organization. If everything regarding induction of new employee is clearly spelt out in the recruitment and selection policy then the chance of recruiting under qualified employee is less.

Another major area of HRM is the training and development of the employees which is closely related to the recruitment and selection procedure.  The recruitment and selection procedure is a matter of huge investment since it involves the training and development programs designed for a particular position.  In fact training can sharpen the know how of an employee. These activities help employees learn how to perform their jobs, improve their performance and prepare themselves for more senior positions. Need for training may start with the new recruitment of the employee and continue till the retirement of the employee. Continuous training and development of the employee can help organization to achieve its goals.

When NEKO consumer product ltd to make a training planning they think that it’s essentially deal is with conventional work skills training and development policy. Employee performance, performance improvement, company training evaluation, training design, is the part of training planning.

When they planning training think about:

  • objectives – keep them in mind all the time
  • how many people you are training
  • the methods and format you will use
  • when and how long the training lasts
  • where it happens
  • how you will measure its effectiveness
  • how you will measure the trainees’ reaction to it

When they give skills training to someone use this simple five-step approach:

  1.  prepare the trainee – take care to relax them as lots of people find learning new things stressful
  2. explain the job/task, skill, project, etc – discuss the method and why; explain standards and why; explain necessary tools, equipment or systems
  3. provide a demonstration – step-by-step – the more complex, the more steps – people cannot absorb a whole complicated task all in one go – break it down – always show the correct way – accentuate the positive – seek feedback and check understanding
  4. have the trainee practice the job – we all learn best by actually doing it – (‘I hear and I forget, I see and I remember, I do and I understand’ – Confucius)
  5. monitor progress – give positive feedback – encourage, coach and adapt according to the pace of development

 Training and development can be achieved through very many different methods – use as many as you need to and which suit the individuals and the group. Refer to the ideas – different people are suited to different forms of training and learning. When NEKO consumer product ltd to make a training planning they maintain a training design process. Which follow are strictly when they start a training program.

Developing people and capabilities

 This organization faces the challenge of developing greater confidence, initiative, solutions-finding, and problem-solving capabilities among their people. Organizations need staff at all levels to be more self-sufficient, resourceful, creative and autonomous. This behavior enables staff can operate at higher strategic level, which makes their organizations more productive and competitive. People’s efforts produce bigger results. neko consumer achieve their strive

 Designing self-study training and learning program

The same basic principles apply to designing self-study programs as to any other sort of The internet enables self-study learning and development programs to be more useful, empowering and cost-effective than ever before. The only limits are those you imagine. Be creative and innovative. Look on the web for ideas and self-study and self-development resources, methods, groups, and technologies.

 Mentoring linked to projects and objectives activities

 Linking mentoring with objectives and project tasks or activities is a highly productive and effective modern method of training and developing people in organizations, especially for staff in teams and departments, of square consumer product ltd. The approach builds on management by objectives (MBO’s) principles, but is more participative, voluntary and inclusive. By comparison, MBO’s are a ‘one-way street’; isolated and individually separate, prescribed along a single-channel towards a task focus. Well-facilitated ‘activity focused mentoring’ is consensual, team-orientated, with a personal development and team building focus, across multiple organizational interfaces, particularly to and between management/subordinate/peer levels.

Mentor time away from normal activities

NEKO consumer product ltd give  minimum of an hour a month one-to-one or nothing can usefully be achieved, up to at most a couple of hours a week one-to-one, which would be intensive almost to the point of overloading the mentored. That said, there may be occasions when the one-to-one would necessarily involve a whole day out for the mentor, for instance client or supplier visits. Say on average a day a month including the associated administration work, particularly where the mentoring is required to be formalized and recorded.

Mentoring cost analysis and justification

Mentoring can be provided in various ways and program takes a variety of shapes. Mentoring can be external, where the mentoring is essentially provided by external people, or an internal activity, using mentors within the organization. Due to the relative newness of mentoring as a formal organized process, and because mentoring program is so varied, statistics as to general costs and returns across industry are not easy to find. Here however are general cost indicators for a program essentially delivered by internally appointed mentors.

The main elements of a mentoring program that carry quantifiable cost would be:

  • Training of mentor(s)

Comfortably achievable good natural mentors need little training; other people who are not ready or able to help others can be beyond any amount of training.

  • Mentor time away from normal activities

needs to be a minimum of an hour a month one-to-one or nothing can usefully be achieved, up to at most a couple of hours a week one-to-one, which would be intensive almost to the point of overloading the mentored. That said, there may be occasions when the one-to-one would necessarily involve a whole day out for the mentor, for instance client or supplier visits. Say on average a day a month including the associated administration work, particularly where the mentoring is required to be formalized and recorded.

  • Overseeing the program, evaluating and monitoring activity, progress and outputs

 depends on the size of the program, i.e., number of mentors an number of ‘mentored’ – if the mentoring is limited to just a single one-to-one relationship then it’s largely self-managing – if it’s a program involving several mentors an mentored then estimate an hour per quarter (3 months) per one-to-one mentoring relationship – probably the responsibility of an HR or training manager. If this person with the overview/monitoring responsibility needs external advice you’d need to add on two or three days external training or consultancy costs.

  • Mentored time away from normal activities

Effective mentoring should ideally integrate with the Mentone’s normal activities, and enhance productivity, effectiveness, etc., so this is arguably a credit not a debit.)

Mentoring principles and techniques

Rather than simply give the answers, the mentor’s role should be to help the ‘mentored’ find the answers for him/her. While giving the answers is usually better than giving no help at all, helping the mentored to find the answers for him/her provides far more effective mentoring, because the process enables so much more for the mentored in terms of experience of learning. Give someone the answers and they learn only the answers; instead mentors need to facilitate the experience of discovery and learning. The mentor should therefore focus mentoring effort and expectations (of the person being mentored especially, and the organization) on helping and guiding the mentored to find the answers and develop solutions of his/her own.

Recognize and acknowledge training achievements

As an employer or manager, take the time to recognize and thank employees for successfully (or unsuccessfully) completing training and development courses, projects or challenges. Receiving recognition is a powerful motivator and stimulant towards further training and personal development.

Leadership and management training and development

Here’s a simple process for training and developing management and leadership skills, and any other skills and abilities besides. Obtain commitment from trainees for development process. Commitment is essential for the development.

Training is rarely well followed-through once delegates are back in jobs, despite HR efforts to achieve this via managers. HR has the line authority of resources of NEKO consumer product ltd.actually HR maintain the this things

NEKO consumer product ltd give their employees both internal and external training and for the better performance they sometimes provides to take better training from outside the country from organization own cost. The performance appraisal/review will identify development needs and the Strategic and Area Operating plans will identify the business needs. Based on these needs appropriate training will be agreed, whether through self-study and self-development programmers, on the job coaching or structured courses. Prior to attending a training course, pre course discussion is essential between the participant and his/her manager to clarify why she has been selected to attend a specific training course, and to discuss the course contents and objectives. This may involve completion of pre-course work.

After attending the training course, a post course discussion is required to discuss the trainees’ views on the course and agree a suitable action plan. Continuous review and follow up, as well as future appraisals will help assess each employee’s need on an ongoing basis.

The role of line managers in the training and development

Whilst the thrust of HR Training efforts is on classroom or Group training, the importance of on-the-job learning cannot be overlooked as playing an active role in an individual’s development. It is therefore essential that structured training courses and on-the-job coaching run side by side, as the former provides the knowledge, and guidelines that are further enhanced by the latter.

The role of a manager

The responsibility of training and developing staff working with them is adequately spelt out in each Manager’s own job description. The manager clearly has to have committed involvement in his staff if they are fully benefit from their work environment and the training programmers that they may attend- be the job specific needs or development needs. The degree of interest and support given by the trainee’s superior will have a direct bearing on the trainee’s attitude and commitment to the programmer.

The picture depicted by the scenario of (SCPL) well known private companies tin our country. But it is quite different in the local private organizations where lack of selection and recruitment policy and lack of proper training and development policy are increasing the number of under skilled manpower in these organizations. As a result, desired output of these organizations is not achieved. Although many other things are involved to maximize the goal of the organization, recruiting under qualified people and ignoring the need of training and developing the manpower should be emphasized to maximize the output of the companies.
