 Performance Appraisal (ACR)

Performance appraisal of the workers of this organization is well organized. Workers are appraised yearly basis. This organization has identified their own way to appraise the performance of the workers. Different departments are involved to appraise them because they have identified some criteria on which they appraise the performance where different criteria are appraised by different departments. And the sum total values identify that how the workers are, which indicate that which workers will get promotion and which workers will get only increment.

Punishment procedures of workers for different causes:

Workers of the organization are punished for different causes. In other word it can be said that when they employ themselves any unlawful work against factory’s regulation, they are punished. How ever the organization punishes the workers for doing of the following works.

1. Irregular attendance: When a worker become irregular in attending to the work, he will be punished for these. In this case when any one remains absent 2 or 3 days frequently, It will be treated as his habitual behavior. For this the person must be punished.

2.    Late attendance: Some workers may have bad habit of attending the work late. For this they will be punished.

3.    Early leave: In worker leaves his work place without the permission of the concern authority, he will be punished for doing that.

4.    And finally: The worker will be punished for any of unlawful works.

The punishment procedure will be as follows:

Punishment for unlawful work: When the workers employ themselves in unlawful work. Some one responsible officer or supervisor will inform it to the management in written form. For this, inquiry will be done. At the inquiry period the concerned workers may be suspended, but it should not exceed more than 60 days. But for exceptional case time may be expanded but salary will be paid. This salary will include half of the basic salary with other benefits in full payment. After inquiry if the worker proves as a guilty person, he will be suspended. If he is not found guilty person, he will not be suspended. If he is not found guilty, his suspension period will be treated as duty period, and will get full wages and salary.

The actions must follow the following procedures:

A written statement must be submitted to the authority, which will be approved by head of the project for legal action. Then a charge sheet should be issued to the accused person and he will be given at least 3 days times for hearing.

He should be in under inquiry by a domestic inquiry committee. The committee will make a report. Then decision is made for the accused person.

Against this decision, the accused person may appeal within 15 days. Finally, the authority will inform the accused person against his appeal what decision has been taken, then the accused person may go for court.

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Findings :

A Govt.College can not advertise for recruit new people. College send list of demand able Human to higher Authority. Higher Authority select HumanCollege only select some 3rd &  4th  class employees appointed Adhoc. Any employee can move one Govt.College to another College any where in Bangladesh. Every same level employee earn same opportunity according to service rules. As service rules all employee go to retirement 57 years. There are some classes employees in a Govt.College.

Recommendations

I have done this work on a Govt. College Human Resource structure. Every Govt. organization operate by Govt. rules & regulation. For this any Govt. organization can not apply any own interest rules. Every rules in good for a proper way. Our country we see some rules can not apply proper way for Govt. organization can not run proper way. There are many reasons for this. Same Grade Govt. College Human Structure is not same. For this many problem has created different College. If Govt. will utilize all rules & regulation proper way most of the critical problem about Human Resources will solve.

Conclusion :

Prepare a Term paper is  a Significant and compulsory task for this training. Every cadre officer should have sufficient knowledge on how to make a research proposal. I am trying to best do this work properly my selected topic is Human Resource practice in Govt. College of Bd.  Bangladesh  Govt. is trying to gear up the education system of Govt.College. But lack of financial facilities and proper Human Resource Practice. It is not possible. Present Govt. emphasize to developed the education system, Govt. has taken different kind of steps to   moderate the education system. To gear up the education without proper utilized of Human Resource. At the end I will say better Human Resource Management for better Education.
