IT INDUSTRY IN INDIA
India’s Information Technology industry growth is unparalleled in the history.
No other industry in India has grown at such fast and scorching pace as the IT
industry. India’s IT industry started blooming in the 1990s and was estimated at
150 million (or 0.15 billion) US Dollars in 1990-91. By 2006-2007, the
industry has grown to 50,000 million (or 50 billion) US dollars; that is a 330
fold increase in just 15 years! By year 2008, the industry was estimated to
increase to 87 billion US dollars. The annual growth rate of the industry in
India is estimated at 30%.
India made a widely welcomed strategic shift in its national policy in the early
nineties and removed many restrictions to liberalize the Indian economy. This
has given an unimaginable impetus for growth of all industrial sectors, and IT
was in the forefront to take advantage of the liberalization policies. The relaxed
policies made it easier for inflow of foreign capital into this industry.
There are many other contributing factors for the growth of IT in India. India
was not a choice destination for setting up units until the 1990s because of
multitude of reasons. However, things have changed substantially since then.
Encouragement for growth of IT industry also saw hitherto unknown new
entrepreneurs setting up new companies. The first and perhaps the most
prominent shining example of the new breed of entrepreneurs is the Infosys
Technologies, which was set up by a handful of technocrats with borrowed
capital!
India’s own domestic IT is also seeing major growth. IT is an essential part of
any Indian company, big or small, for their day to day activities and the
dependence on IT for growth is only going to increase. Thus there is huge
scope for IT growth in the Indian domestic market. IT sector in India currently
provides employment to over 2.2 million people and the opportunities will
increase in the years to come. Not surprisingly, unemployment is not a major
issue any more for political parties in India to garner votes!
Growth of IT sector has helped many Indian cities to grow. This has brought
pressures for infrastructure development and many Indian cities are currently
witnessing heavy investments in infrastructure projects. Bangalore, Hyderabad
and Chennai in the south have seen unimaginable growth of IT sector which
contributed favorably to the growth of the city limits. The IT sector has also
been, perhaps, the reason for the new found affluence of the city dwellers
because of the well paid work force in the IT sector. Demands for housing are
contributing to the growth of the real estate sector. Transportation demands are
giving impetus to the automobile sector growth. Transportation demands are
also bringing pressures for development of infrastructure, which is attracting
major investments enabling the construction sector to grow. Whatever way one
3
look at the IT sector, it is only contributing to the fast paced growth of India and
its economy. It is being predicted that India is going to be a major developed
power possibly in the next 20 years time and the growth of information
technology sector could very well be one of the major contributing factors for
getting India into that enviable position
Job Analysis is a primary tool to collect job-related data. The process results in
collecting and recording two data sets including job description and job
specification. Any job vacancy cannot be filled until and unless HR manager
has these two sets of data. It is necessary to define them accurately in order to
fit the right person at the right place and at the right time. This helps both
employer and employee understand what exactly needs to be delivered and how.
Both job description and job specification are essential parts of job analysis
information. Writing them clearly and accurately helps organization and
workers cope with many challenges while onboard.
Job description includes basic job-related data that is useful to advertise a
specific job and attract a poolof talent. It includes information such as job title,
job location, reporting to and of employees, job summary, nature and objectives
of a job, tasks and duties to be performed, working conditions, machines, tools
and equipments to be used by a prospective worker and hazards involved in it.
Employee engagement is the connection people feel to their work that results in
higher levels of performance, commitment and loyalty. Given these positive
results, there is a lot of interest in current levels of employee engagement, and
ways in which engagement can be increased.

CONCEPTUAL STUDY
JOB DESCRIPTION
What Is A Job Description?
 A formal statement of duties, qualifications, and responsibilities
associated with a job.
 A communication tool that tells employees where their jobs leave
off and another’s begins
 A document that tells employees where their position fits within
the department and within the organization
What Are The Major Components Of A Job Description?
 Job Heading
 Job Summary
 Essential Duties, Tasks and Responsibilities
 Qualifications (Education, Knowledge, Skills, Abilities, Special
Skills, Licensures and Certifications)
 Working Conditions & Physical Requirements
Job Description of the Employee in DATAMATICS:
o Job description is sent by the recruiters to a prospective employee.
o It takes place before one comes into an organisation, like negotiating for
salaries, positions, etc.
o Once you enter into an organisation it is the KRA’s and KPI’s that are
more important.
o In JD the “format” is given by HR and the “content” is given by the
manager.

JOB ENGAGEMENT:
Employee engagement is a workplace approach designed to ensure that
employees are committed to their organisation’s goals and values, motivated to
contribute to organisational success, and are able at the same time to enhance
their own sense of well-being.
There are differences between attitude, behaviour and outcomes in terms of
engagement. An employee might feel pride and loyalty (attitude); be a great
advocate of their company to clients, or go the extra mile to finish a piece of
work (behaviour). Outcomes may include lower accident rates, higher
productivity, fewer conflicts, more innovation, lower numbers leaving and
reduced sickness rates. But we believe all three – attitudes, behaviours and
outcomes – are part of the engagement story. There is a virtuous circle when the
pre-conditions of engagement are met when these three aspects of engagement
trigger and reinforce one another.
Engaged organisations have strong and authentic values, with clear evidence of
trust and fairness based on mutual respect, where two way promises and
commitments – between employers and staff – are understood, and are fulfilled.
Although improved performance and productivity is at the heart of engagement,
it cannot be achieved by a mechanistic approach which tries to extract
discretionary effort by manipulating employees’ commitment and emotions.
Employees see through such attempts very quickly; they lead instead to
cynicism and disillusionment. By contrast, engaged employees freely and
willingly give discretionary effort, not as an ‘add on’, but as an integral part of
their daily activity at work.
But is employee engagement something new, or simply old wine (long-standing
management approaches) in new (fashionable management-speak) bottles? Is it
just the latest management fad? We believe that while it does have clear
overlaps with analytical antecedents such as commitment, ‘organisational
citizenship behaviour’, job involvement and job satisfaction, there are also
crucial differences.
In particular, engagement is two way: organisations must work to engage the
employee, who in turn has a choice about the level of engagement to offer the
employer. Each reinforces the other.
An engaged employee experiences a blend of job satisfaction, organisational
commitment, job involvement and feelings of empowerment. It is a concept that
is greater than the sum of its parts.
Despite there being some debate about the precise meaning of employee
engagement there are three things we know about it: it is measurable; it can be
correlated with performance; and it varies from poor to great. Most importantly
10
employers can do a great deal to impact on people’s level of engagement. That
is what makes it so important, as a tool for business success.
JOB ENGAGEMENT in Datamatics:
o In Datamatics, 15 odd initiatives take place under employee engagement
from entry to exit of an employee in the organisation. When a company
engages an employee it ends up spending some amount of money, on a
monthly basis for celebrations,training,etc. This leads to happiness of the
employees so that they work better.
o Celebrations relieve stress of the daily routine work. Typically people
stay in an organisation for few numbers of months, as they want to work
on their resume.
o It is the HR’s job to make the employees happy and contended.
1. PAREECHAY session: This is a 1 hr orientation session, wherein
companies’ policies, working of swipe, seating position, general
briefing are done of the policies.
2. SARTHI: They have an “Office Buddy System” where an existing
employee will be your buddy in the organisation. This buddy will help
you in solving minor issues as where you would be having lunch,
project specific work, etc. During the feedback too questions about the
“Sarthi” are asked as to whether your sarthi was helpful or not, etc.
3. PULSE: They have this local intranet system called “PULSE”, where
they login and take data, it here that they upload if anyone wants to do
OT (overtime) or want to take a leave. It is during the “Pareechay”
that the new employees are educated about this intranet system.
4. VIEWERS AND RECOGNITION PROGRAM: This program
takes place during the “Euphoria”, where the “Employee of the
month” is elected. And various appreciations and discussions are
made during this monthly meet.
• TGIF
It is called as THANK GOD IT’S FRIDAY. Every Friday they decide
dress code and according to that they wear casuals. E.g. when we visited
Datamatics, it was Friday. All employees were in casuals and in dress
code. It was ZATANG DAY. All were in bight coloured clothes.
Sometimes they play games on Fridays to divert their mind from work
stress and they feel fresh from this.
 Euphoria
It is a monthly meet of all employees. They celebrate birthdays of all
employees on that particular day which comes in that month. They bring
cake, gift and decorate office for celebration from HR budget. As written
earlier “employee of the month” award is given on that day. If someone
11
got married then they give gift to them. If someone become parent then
they gift to them also.
 Josh Culture Club
All employees together celebrate festivals under Josh culture club. They
organize fashion show for employees. Those who are interested in
photography, they collect photos from them and from that selected photos
are published on their annual calendar. If possible they put photo on that
person’s month of birth. It is not only for selected employees. All from
top management to entrants can give photos and all are taken into
consideration.
 Customer Satisfaction Survey
Here, they take feedback from their clients on employee’s performance.
Ratings are between 1 to 6 points. 1 is lowest and 6 are highest. If any
employee gets 5 or 6 points i.e. highest from client then that employees
get certificate from client which is called as “Client Appreciation
Certificate”. That employee gets chance of coffee with LOB head which
is called as “Coffee with LOB head” where they can talk with LOB head
on his/ her experience and problems. If any employees share any
problems with head quick actions are taken by head on that problem.
FEEDBACK AFTER JOB ENGAGEMENT PROCESS:
ONLINE FEEDBACK
In online feedback process new employees get one link when they log in to
their organisation email id. When they click on that link, on which they can
give there feedback without exposing their identity. That will be hidden
from future conflicts.
FEEDBACK MECHANISM
In this there are three steps of giving feedback mainly:
 30
 60
 90
30 – After completing of 30 days in organisation the employee get small
session on how the organisation is? They introduce the employee to the admin
of IT department. Also the employee will introduce with SARTHI system
which is the existing employee will be his guider or friend in organisation for
few days. This SARTHI helps him to show the organisation infrastructure and
all surroundings. He can also get chance to interact with the new existing
employees.
12
60 – In this process, after completion of 60 days the employee gets one email
regarding “congratulations! For completing your 60 days in organisation.”
Also they get their own email id which is used in organisation for work
purpose. The employee can directly contact to his HR head by sending mails.
Also the general interactions with all heads in organisation.
90 - Completing 90 days in organisation there is “PROPER FEEDBACK
FORM-MY EXPERIENCE “ which he has to fill up in proper format. Where
he can write his overall experience about the organisation, about his SARTHI,
asked general question like did your SARTHI helpful or not , how are the
organisation environment good or bad , 2 things which u like to change about
the organisation, 2 things which you don’t like about the organisation.
The employee gets to interact with HRD head, gets the knowledge
about the project he has to done in the organisation. Also he has to make a
presentation on his experiences and about his project and send it to his head
department.
13
PROBLEMS
Problem occurs in Datamatics are as follows:
1. Genration Gap
2. Participation
3. Retention
Above mentioned are three major problems occurred at Datamatics. Mainly
there was Generation Gap which leads to retention and participation problem.
Generation Gap
In E-Bay majority are degree pass out students. So their ideas and the way were
different from the higher level management which were too senior to them. The
Generation X use to think that it’s just waste of time where Generation Y use to
have fun to boost their moral and motivate themselves.
Participation
Not all the celebration gets same responses. Number of participation is similar
as compare to each other. It differs from person to person and their interests and
also because of generation gap.
Retention
As the idea differs because of generation gap, it was observed by the seniors
that there is too much fun on the floor and less work. They scraped TGIF last
few months because of which the observed too much retention problem started.
14
SOLUTION
Depending on the crowd the program should be designed.
For younger generation that is the millennial can have programs which can keep
their motivation level maintained as well as their work graph.
TGIF is one among the program which we discussed in the interview; they
again started the same program to maintain the retention problem.
They took care of employees by also taking EXIT INTERVIEWS by asking
them about their Role, Reason to leave the job, Two things which the employee
likes, Two things which the employee dislikes, training was enough, SARTHI
was helpful or not and so on.
From these question or exit interviews they use to understand the main
psychological reason behind leaving the job.
If the employee is an asset to the company then they try to convince them and
try to hold them for with some benefits or adjustments.
Where at times the reasons to leave are genuine like health issues, shifting
abroad, further studies, getting married etc.
If certificate program is given to an employee the look after that they should not
leave the job as the company has certified the employeefor companies benefit
and not to leave after learning process. So to look this matter the company signs
a bond with employee for 1 year.
15
CONCLUTION
The day which we went was Friday and it was fun on the floor. All were
dressed in Jazzy cloths as it was Jhatak Day.
We also observed a cubical where a table was decorated with spackles wishing
Happy Birthday; it was their way to make the employee feel within family. At
the entrance they have also put up wishes from the staff for the employees on
his/her special day, to make it more special.
They also have a monthly calendar with the photograph clicked by the
employees to make them feel as a part of family. Even the intern and the retired
employee got a equal chance to take part in this photography competition.
They also have Training calendar segregated into different branches and their
specialization into.
Hence, we conclude saying that Job description is an instrument to select
employees and Job engagement is a process to engage employees for success.
So, at Datamatics the Job description is given by Human Resource
Representative where the content is looked after by the Human Resource
Manager.
Job engagement is where all the hierarchy is involved at one or the other
moment whichever is possible at their best.
In the end, we would say that it’s the Human Resources job to make the
employees feel contented and also make them feel that they are working in the
best organisation.

  • 1. 1 HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT LIVE PROJECT ON JOB DESCRIPTION AND JOB ENGAGEMENT OF EMPLOYEES IN IT INDUSTRY Datamatics Global Services Limited SUBMITTED TO PROF.TRUPTI GUPTE SUBMITTED BY NISHIGANDHA BATWAL 04 SHRUTIKA BHALEKAR 06 PRIYANKA KADAM 18 SNEHAL KADAM 19 AKSHATA SAKPAL 39 PTVA’S INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT MMS FIRST YEAR, SEM-II DIV-A
  • 2. 2 IT INDUSTRY IN INDIA India’s Information Technology industry growth is unparalleled in the history. No other industry in India has grown at such fast and scorching pace as the IT industry. India’s IT industry started blooming in the 1990s and was estimated at 150 million (or 0.15 billion) US Dollars in 1990-91. By 2006-2007, the industry has grown to 50,000 million (or 50 billion) US dollars; that is a 330 fold increase in just 15 years! By year 2008, the industry was estimated to increase to 87 billion US dollars. The annual growth rate of the industry in India is estimated at 30%. India made a widely welcomed strategic shift in its national policy in the early nineties and removed many restrictions to liberalize the Indian economy. This has given an unimaginable impetus for growth of all industrial sectors, and IT was in the forefront to take advantage of the liberalization policies. The relaxed policies made it easier for inflow of foreign capital into this industry. There are many other contributing factors for the growth of IT in India. India was not a choice destination for setting up units until the 1990s because of multitude of reasons. However, things have changed substantially since then. Encouragement for growth of IT industry also saw hitherto unknown new entrepreneurs setting up new companies. The first and perhaps the most prominent shining example of the new breed of entrepreneurs is the Infosys Technologies, which was set up by a handful of technocrats with borrowed capital! India’s own domestic IT is also seeing major growth. IT is an essential part of any Indian company, big or small, for their day to day activities and the dependence on IT for growth is only going to increase. Thus there is huge scope for IT growth in the Indian domestic market. IT sector in India currently provides employment to over 2.2 million people and the opportunities will increase in the years to come. Not surprisingly, unemployment is not a major issue any more for political parties in India to garner votes! Growth of IT sector has helped many Indian cities to grow. This has brought pressures for infrastructure development and many Indian cities are currently witnessing heavy investments in infrastructure projects. Bangalore, Hyderabad and Chennai in the south have seen unimaginable growth of IT sector which contributed favorably to the growth of the city limits. The IT sector has also been, perhaps, the reason for the new found affluence of the city dwellers because of the well paid work force in the IT sector. Demands for housing are contributing to the growth of the real estate sector. Transportation demands are giving impetus to the automobile sector growth. Transportation demands are also bringing pressures for development of infrastructure, which is attracting major investments enabling the construction sector to grow. Whatever way one
  • 3. 3 look at the IT sector, it is only contributing to the fast paced growth of India and its economy. It is being predicted that India is going to be a major developed power possibly in the next 20 years time and the growth of information technology sector could very well be one of the major contributing factors for getting India into that enviable position Job Analysis is a primary tool to collect job-related data. The process results in collecting and recording two data sets including job description and job specification. Any job vacancy cannot be filled until and unless HR manager has these two sets of data. It is necessary to define them accurately in order to fit the right person at the right place and at the right time. This helps both employer and employee understand what exactly needs to be delivered and how. Both job description and job specification are essential parts of job analysis information. Writing them clearly and accurately helps organization and workers cope with many challenges while onboard. Job description includes basic job-related data that is useful to advertise a specific job and attract a poolof talent. It includes information such as job title, job location, reporting to and of employees, job summary, nature and objectives of a job, tasks and duties to be performed, working conditions, machines, tools and equipments to be used by a prospective worker and hazards involved in it. Employee engagement is the connection people feel to their work that results in higher levels of performance, commitment and loyalty. Given these positive results, there is a lot of interest in current levels of employee engagement, and ways in which engagement can be increased.

  • 9. 9 JOB ENGAGEMENT: Employee engagement is a workplace approach designed to ensure that employees are committed to their organisation’s goals and values, motivated to contribute to organisational success, and are able at the same time to enhance their own sense of well-being. There are differences between attitude, behaviour and outcomes in terms of engagement. An employee might feel pride and loyalty (attitude); be a great advocate of their company to clients, or go the extra mile to finish a piece of work (behaviour). Outcomes may include lower accident rates, higher productivity, fewer conflicts, more innovation, lower numbers leaving and reduced sickness rates. But we believe all three – attitudes, behaviours and outcomes – are part of the engagement story. There is a virtuous circle when the pre-conditions of engagement are met when these three aspects of engagement trigger and reinforce one another. Engaged organisations have strong and authentic values, with clear evidence of trust and fairness based on mutual respect, where two way promises and commitments – between employers and staff – are understood, and are fulfilled. Although improved performance and productivity is at the heart of engagement, it cannot be achieved by a mechanistic approach which tries to extract discretionary effort by manipulating employees’ commitment and emotions. Employees see through such attempts very quickly; they lead instead to cynicism and disillusionment. By contrast, engaged employees freely and willingly give discretionary effort, not as an ‘add on’, but as an integral part of their daily activity at work. But is employee engagement something new, or simply old wine (long-standing management approaches) in new (fashionable management-speak) bottles? Is it just the latest management fad? We believe that while it does have clear overlaps with analytical antecedents such as commitment, ‘organisational citizenship behaviour’, job involvement and job satisfaction, there are also crucial differences. In particular, engagement is two way: organisations must work to engage the employee, who in turn has a choice about the level of engagement to offer the employer. Each reinforces the other. An engaged employee experiences a blend of job satisfaction, organisational commitment, job involvement and feelings of empowerment. It is a concept that is greater than the sum of its parts. Despite there being some debate about the precise meaning of employee engagement there are three things we know about it: it is measurable; it can be correlated with performance; and it varies from poor to great. Most importantly
  • 10. 10 employers can do a great deal to impact on people’s level of engagement. That is what makes it so important, as a tool for business success. JOB ENGAGEMENT in Datamatics: o In Datamatics, 15 odd initiatives take place under employee engagement from entry to exit of an employee in the organisation. When a company engages an employee it ends up spending some amount of money, on a monthly basis for celebrations,training,etc. This leads to happiness of the employees so that they work better. o Celebrations relieve stress of the daily routine work. Typically people stay in an organisation for few numbers of months, as they want to work on their resume. o It is the HR’s job to make the employees happy and contended. 1. PAREECHAY session: This is a 1 hr orientation session, wherein companies’ policies, working of swipe, seating position, general briefing are done of the policies. 2. SARTHI: They have an “Office Buddy System” where an existing employee will be your buddy in the organisation. This buddy will help you in solving minor issues as where you would be having lunch, project specific work, etc. During the feedback too questions about the “Sarthi” are asked as to whether your sarthi was helpful or not, etc. 3. PULSE: They have this local intranet system called “PULSE”, where they login and take data, it here that they upload if anyone wants to do OT (overtime) or want to take a leave. It is during the “Pareechay” that the new employees are educated about this intranet system. 4. VIEWERS AND RECOGNITION PROGRAM: This program takes place during the “Euphoria”, where the “Employee of the month” is elected. And various appreciations and discussions are made during this monthly meet. • TGIF It is called as THANK GOD IT’S FRIDAY. Every Friday they decide dress code and according to that they wear casuals. E.g. when we visited Datamatics, it was Friday. All employees were in casuals and in dress code. It was ZATANG DAY. All were in bight coloured clothes. Sometimes they play games on Fridays to divert their mind from work stress and they feel fresh from this.  Euphoria It is a monthly meet of all employees. They celebrate birthdays of all employees on that particular day which comes in that month. They bring cake, gift and decorate office for celebration from HR budget. As written earlier “employee of the month” award is given on that day. If someone
  • 11. 11 got married then they give gift to them. If someone become parent then they gift to them also.  Josh Culture Club All employees together celebrate festivals under Josh culture club. They organize fashion show for employees. Those who are interested in photography, they collect photos from them and from that selected photos are published on their annual calendar. If possible they put photo on that person’s month of birth. It is not only for selected employees. All from top management to entrants can give photos and all are taken into consideration.  Customer Satisfaction Survey Here, they take feedback from their clients on employee’s performance. Ratings are between 1 to 6 points. 1 is lowest and 6 are highest. If any employee gets 5 or 6 points i.e. highest from client then that employees get certificate from client which is called as “Client Appreciation Certificate”. That employee gets chance of coffee with LOB head which is called as “Coffee with LOB head” where they can talk with LOB head on his/ her experience and problems. If any employees share any problems with head quick actions are taken by head on that problem. FEEDBACK AFTER JOB ENGAGEMENT PROCESS: ONLINE FEEDBACK In online feedback process new employees get one link when they log in to their organisation email id. When they click on that link, on which they can give there feedback without exposing their identity. That will be hidden from future conflicts. FEEDBACK MECHANISM In this there are three steps of giving feedback mainly:  30  60  90 30 – After completing of 30 days in organisation the employee get small session on how the organisation is? They introduce the employee to the admin of IT department. Also the employee will introduce with SARTHI system which is the existing employee will be his guider or friend in organisation for few days. This SARTHI helps him to show the organisation infrastructure and all surroundings. He can also get chance to interact with the new existing employees.
  • 12. 12 60 – In this process, after completion of 60 days the employee gets one email regarding “congratulations! For completing your 60 days in organisation.” Also they get their own email id which is used in organisation for work purpose. The employee can directly contact to his HR head by sending mails. Also the general interactions with all heads in organisation. 90 - Completing 90 days in organisation there is “PROPER FEEDBACK FORM-MY EXPERIENCE “ which he has to fill up in proper format. Where he can write his overall experience about the organisation, about his SARTHI, asked general question like did your SARTHI helpful or not , how are the organisation environment good or bad , 2 things which u like to change about the organisation, 2 things which you don’t like about the organisation. The employee gets to interact with HRD head, gets the knowledge about the project he has to done in the organisation. Also he has to make a presentation on his experiences and about his project and send it to his head department.
  • 13. 13 PROBLEMS Problem occurs in Datamatics are as follows: 1. Genration Gap 2. Participation 3. Retention Above mentioned are three major problems occurred at Datamatics. Mainly there was Generation Gap which leads to retention and participation problem. Generation Gap In E-Bay majority are degree pass out students. So their ideas and the way were different from the higher level management which were too senior to them. The Generation X use to think that it’s just waste of time where Generation Y use to have fun to boost their moral and motivate themselves. Participation Not all the celebration gets same responses. Number of participation is similar as compare to each other. It differs from person to person and their interests and also because of generation gap. Retention As the idea differs because of generation gap, it was observed by the seniors that there is too much fun on the floor and less work. They scraped TGIF last few months because of which the observed too much retention problem started.
  • 14. 14 SOLUTION Depending on the crowd the program should be designed. For younger generation that is the millennial can have programs which can keep their motivation level maintained as well as their work graph. TGIF is one among the program which we discussed in the interview; they again started the same program to maintain the retention problem. They took care of employees by also taking EXIT INTERVIEWS by asking them about their Role, Reason to leave the job, Two things which the employee likes, Two things which the employee dislikes, training was enough, SARTHI was helpful or not and so on. From these question or exit interviews they use to understand the main psychological reason behind leaving the job. If the employee is an asset to the company then they try to convince them and try to hold them for with some benefits or adjustments. Where at times the reasons to leave are genuine like health issues, shifting abroad, further studies, getting married etc. If certificate program is given to an employee the look after that they should not leave the job as the company has certified the employeefor companies benefit and not to leave after learning process. So to look this matter the company signs a bond with employee for 1 year.
  • 15. 15 CONCLUTION The day which we went was Friday and it was fun on the floor. All were dressed in Jazzy cloths as it was Jhatak Day. We also observed a cubical where a table was decorated with spackles wishing Happy Birthday; it was their way to make the employee feel within family. At the entrance they have also put up wishes from the staff for the employees on his/her special day, to make it more special. They also have a monthly calendar with the photograph clicked by the employees to make them feel as a part of family. Even the intern and the retired employee got a equal chance to take part in this photography competition. They also have Training calendar segregated into different branches and their specialization into. Hence, we conclude saying that Job description is an instrument to select employees and Job engagement is a process to engage employees for success. So, at Datamatics the Job description is given by Human Resource Representative where the content is looked after by the Human Resource Manager. Job engagement is where all the hierarchy is involved at one or the other moment whichever is possible at their best.
