5. INTRODUCTION
SRF Ltd., earlier called the Sriram Fibers, has evolved into a modern industrial major. Its roots go back
to over a century, with the establishment of the parent company, DCM (Delhi Cloth Mills) in 1889. Since

industry. It is the market leader in its core businesses, namely industrial synthetics and Fluorochemicals.

Pharma chemical business.
SRF today operates from nine plant locations in India and abroad and has attained market leadership
position in many of the products it manufactures. SRF’s relentless focus on TQM techniques has resulted

PEOPLE DEVELOPMENT
SRF’s people development system follows a scientific process on three fronts:
Need Identification
Design and Delivery
Effectiveness Measurement
“Realising that need identification is not an isolated sub-set of the performance management system for
an organisation; we derive focused needs from a variety of sources that enable SRF to arrive at the real
developmental needs. These are addressed through customised design, delivery of training programs and
other developmental initiatives. The development loop is closed through a scientific system of measuring
training effectiveness that feeds in to the next design cycle.
At SRF, we believe that leadership is a quality that can be developed. We follow a strength-based
methodology of identifying and developing leaders within the organisation. Emphasis is paid on
developing leaders adept at the SRF Management Way, and appropriate opportunities are provided to
7
8. them to utilise their leadership skills. We are in the process of instituting a Leadership Cadre where we
will create a pipeline of individuals to man our key leadership positions.
Being a market leader in technology, we understand that technical and domain capabilities need to go
hand-in-hand with managerial skills. Our technical training initiatives are designed to enhance the
technical skills of our employees, thus allowing us to retain a dominant position in the highly
competitive marketplace.
Our developmental activities don't stop at the managerial levels, but percolate down to our 'Non
Management Staff'. We have implemented a one year long Management Education Program for our
employees for their overall development.
In all, our People Development methodology is a combination of developmental assignments, instructor
led training, coaching, on the job modules, development centres and participation in special project
teams to enable employees to continuously learn and develop.”
WORK CULTURE
“The HR function at SRF envisions creating and nurturing an organisation where economic prosperity
and growth, organizational effectiveness and human well-being go hand-in-hand.
It is our constant endeavor to create an environment where people feel comfortable in expressing their
feelings, opinions, views and suggestions without any fear of reprisal.
SRF provides an open environment to all employees with respect to freedom, empowerment and
expression. Our credo of approachability and transparency finds shape in many ways, including an 'open
house' where employees can raise their concerns with the management directly.
Every idea is valued, and implementation of new initiatives is strongly encouraged by the organization.
Following the philosophy of Kaizen, we believe that every incremental step towards improvement
propels the organization towards operational excellence. At the same time, understanding the fact that
breakthrough initiatives often enable organizations to leapfrog to the next level, SRF encourages and
rewards bigger improvements through other mechanisms.”
SA 8000
8
9. SRF is an SA8000 certified manufacturing unit.
SA8000 is a global social accountability standard for decent working conditions, developed and overseen
by Social Accountability International (SAI). Detailed guidance for implementing or auditing to SA8000
are available from its website. SAI offers training in SA8000 and other workplace standards to managers,
workers and auditors. It contracts with a global accreditation agency, Social Accountability Accreditation
Services (SAAS) that licenses and oversees auditing organizations to award certification to employers
that comply with SA8000.
In May 2009 it was verified by SAAS Accreditation that over 1.3 million workers are employed in
SA8000 Certified Facilities around the world.
Basis
SA8000 is an auditable certification standard based on the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights,
Convention on the Rights of the Child and various International Labour Organization (ILO) conventions.
SA8000 covers the following areas of accountability:
• Child Labour: No workers under the age of 15; minimum lowered to 14 for countries operating
under the ILO Convention 138 developing-country exception; remediation of any child found to
be working.
• Forced Labour: No forced labor, including prison or debt bondage labor; no lodging of deposits
or identity papers by employers or outside recruiters.
• Health and Safety: Provide a safe and healthy work environment; take steps to prevent injuries;
regular health and safety worker training; system to detect threats to health and safety; access to
bathrooms and potable water.
• Freedom of Association and Right to Collective Bargaining: Respect the right to form and join
trade unions and bargain collectively; where law prohibits these freedoms, facilitate parallel
means of association and bargaining.
• Discrimination: No discrimination based on race, caste, origin, religion, disability, gender, sexual
orientation, union or political affiliation, or age; no sexual harassment.
• Discipline: No corporal punishment, mental or physical coercion or verbal abuse
• Working Hours: Comply with the applicable law but, in any event, no more than 48 hours per
week with at least one day off for every seven day period; voluntary overtime paid at a premium
9
10. rate and not to exceed 12 hours per week on a regular basis; overtime may be mandatory if part of
a collective bargaining agreement.
• Compensation: Wages paid for a standard work week must meet the legal and industry standards
and be sufficient to meet the basic need of workers and their families; no disciplinary deductions.
Management systems for Human Resources: Facilities seeking to gain and
maintain certification must go beyond simple compliance to integrate the
standard into their management systems and practices. Certification
A facility wishing to seek certification to SA8000 must apply to a SAAS-accredited auditing firm, or
certification body. Assessment of compliance to the SA8000 Standard and the issuance of accredited
SA8000 certifications are available only through SAAS-accredited, independent organizations.
There are four basic types of out of pocket costs associated with certification:
• The cost associated with taking corrective and preventive action in order to qualify for
compliance. After this, an organization would seek verification of its compliance.
• The cost of preparing for the audit.
• The cost of an independent audit by a SAAS-accredited CB.
• The cost associated with taking corrective actions to resolve problems (if nonconformance have
been identified).
SAAS Accreditation maintains a public list of SA8000 certified facilities and statistics.
As of September 30, 2010:
• Certified Facilities: 2,330
• Countries Represented: 62
• Industries Represented: 66
• Number of Employees: 1,365,236
The industrial sectors with the most certifications include apparel and textiles; building materials;
agriculture; construction; chemicals; cosmetics; cleaning services and transportation. The countries with
the most certification to SA8000 include Brazil, India, China and Italy.

11. Significance
Dominic A. Tarantino, Chairman of Price Waterhouse World Firm described SA8000 in 1998 as "the
first ever universal standard for ethical sourcing... It provides a common framework for ethical sourcing
for companies of any size and any type, anywhere in the world. SA8000 sets out provisions for issues
such as trade union rights, the use of child labor, working hours, health and safety at work, and fair pay."
However, it does not address broader issues of ecology or bribery or other issues which may require
more consumer or executive restraint. Tarantino further argued the need for moral leadership:
"Pricing, products and services are no longer the sole arbiters of commercial success... it is business that
must take the lead in taming the global frontier. Business must take the lead in establishing rule of law in
emerging markets. Business must take the lead in stopping bribery. Business must take the lead in
bringing order to cyberspace. Business must take the lead in ensuring that technology does not split the
world into haves and have nots.”

24. RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION PROCESS
According to Edwin B. Flippo, “Recruitment is the process of searching the candidates
for employment and stimulating them to apply for jobs in the organization”.
Recruitment is the activity that links the employers and the job seekers.
Recruitment is a linking activity- bringing together jobs to fill and those seeking jobs.
A good recruitment program should attract the qualified & not unqualified.
Recruitment is a costly affair. There are legal implications of incompetent selection –
negligent hiring. “Organizations must consider recruitment as a strategic war to attract
talent, and must develop and implement aggressive talent acquisition strategies in
order to dominate the labor market within a given industry. With the impending
retirement of the baby-boomer generation and the lack of availability of high quality
senior-level talent, many companies consider talent acquisition to be the most
important business challenge facing them today”.
Recruitment of candidates is the function preceding the selection, which helps create a
pool of prospective employees for the organization so that the management can select
the right candidate for the right job from this pool. The main objective of the
recruitment process is to expedite the selection process.
Recruitment is a continuous process whereby the firm attempts to develop a pool of
qualified applicants for the future human resources needs even though specific
vacancies do not exist. Usually, the recruitment process starts when a manger initiates
an employee requisition for a specific vacancy or an anticipated vacancy.
24
25. Purpose & Importance Of Recruitment:
• Attract and encourage more and more candidates to apply in the organization.
• Create a talent pool of candidates to enable the selection of best candidates for
the organization.
• Determine present and future requirements of the organization in conjunction
with its personnel planning and job analysis activities.
• Recruitment is the process which links the employers with the employees.
• Increase the pool of job candidates at minimum cost.
• Help increase the success rate of selection process by decreasing number of
visibly under qualified or overqualified job applicants.
• Help reduce the probability that job applicants once recruited and selected will
leave the organization only after a short period of time.
• Meet the organizations legal and social obligations regarding the composition of
its workforce.
• Begin identifying and preparing potential job applicants who will be appropriate
candidates.
• Increase organization and individual effectiveness of various recruiting
techniques and sources for all types of job applicants.
• So, those people who are involved in the process have a high level of
responsibilities.
25
26. Management’s Role in Recruitment
Recruitment planning is anticipating and using all available flexibilities and strategies
to maintain the workforce. Human Resources Responsibilities along with the civilian
Recruitment Team can help through this process by further explaining strategies and
helping to find easier ways to accomplish them.
Responsibilities include:
• Determining a vacancy exists.
• Choosing the right strategies to fill the position.
• Defining and capturing the need (understanding the position, its functions, duties,
responsibilities, and skill requirements.)
• Initiating the final action.
Recruitment needs are of three types
• PLANNED
i.e. the needs arising from changes in organization and retirement policy.
• ANTICIPATED
Anticipated needs are those movements in personnel, which an organization can
predict by studying trends in internal and external environment.
• UNEXPECTED
Resignation, deaths, accidents, illness give rise to unexpected needs.
26
27. The Recruitment Process

5 Consult the recruitment policy 12 Provide feedback to applicants

6 Choose the recruitment source(s) 13 Proceed to selection
7 Decide on a recruitment method 14 Evaluate the recruitment effort
SOURCES OF RECRUITMENT
Every organization has the option of choosing the candidates for its recruitment
processes from two kinds of sources: internal and external sources. The sources within
the organization itself (like transfer of employees from one department to other,
promotions) to fill a position are known as the internal sources of recruitment.
Recruitment candidates from all the other sources (like outsourcing agencies etc.) are
known as the external sources of recruitment.
27
28. SOURCES OF RECRUITMENT
Internal Sources Of Recruitment
1. TRANSFERS
The employees are transferred from one department to another according to their
efficiency and experience.
2. PROMOTIONS
The employees are promoted from one department to another with more benefits
and greater responsibility based on efficiency and experience.
3. Others are Upgrading and Demotion of present employees according to their
performance.
4. Retired and Retrenched employees may also be recruited once again in case of
shortage of qualified personnel or increase in load of work. Recruitment such
people save time and costs of the organizations as the people are already aware
of the organizational culture and the policies and procedures.
28
29. 5. The dependents and relatives of Deceased employees and Disabled employees
are also done by many companies so that the members of the family do not
become dependent on the mercy of others.
The advantages of internal recruitment are that:
1. Considerable savings can be made. Individuals with inside knowledge of how a
business operates will need shorter periods of training and time for 'fitting in'.
2. The organization is unlikely to be greatly 'disrupted' by someone who is used to
working with others in the organization.
3. Internal promotion acts as an incentive to all staff to work harder within the
organization.
4. From the firm's point of view, the strengths and weaknesses of an insider will
have been assessed. There is always a risk attached to employing an outsider
who may only be a success 'on paper'.
The disadvantages of recruiting from within are that:
1. You will have to replace the person who has been promoted
2. An insider may be less likely to make the essential criticisms required to get the
company working more effectively
3. Promotion of one person in a company may upset someone else.
External Sources Of Recruitment
External recruitment makes it possible to draw upon a wider range of talent, and
provides the opportunity to bring new experience and ideas in to the business.
Disadvantages are that it is more costly and the company may end up with someone
who proves to be less effective in practice than they did on paper and in the interview
situation.
There are a number of stages, which can be used to define and set out the nature of
particular jobs for recruitment purposes:
29
30. Job analysis is the process of examining jobs in order to identify the key requirements
of each job. A number of important questions need to be explored: the title of the job
to whom the employee is responsible for whom the employee is responsible a simple
description of the role and duties of the employee within the organization.
Job analysis is used in order to:
1. Choose employees either from the ranks of your existing staff or from the
recruitment of new staff.
2. Set out the training requirements of a particular job.
3. Provide information which will help in decision making about the type of
equipment and materials to be employed with the job.
4. Identify and profile the experiences of employees in their work tasks
(information which can be used as evidence for staff development and
promotion).
5. Identify areas of risk and danger at work.
6. Help in setting rates of pay for job tasks.
Job analysis can be carried out by direct observation of employees at work, by
finding out information from interviewing job holders, or by referring to
documents such as training manuals. Information can be leaned directly from the
person carrying out a task and/or from their supervisory staff. Some large
organizations specifically employ 'job analysts'. In most companies, however,
job analysis is expected to be part of the general skills of a training or personnel
officer.
Job description
A job description will set out how a particular employee will fit into the organization.
It will therefore need to set out:
• the title of the job
30
31. • to whom the employee is responsible
• for whom the employee is responsible
• a simple description of the role and duties of the employee within the
organization.
A job description could be used as a job indicator for applicants for a job.
Alternatively, it could be used as a guideline for an employee and/or his or her line
manager as to his or her role and responsibility within the organization.
Job specification
A job specification goes beyond a mere description - in addition, it highlights the
mental and physical attributes required of the job holder. For example, a job
specification for a trainee manager's post in a retail store included the following:
'Managers at all levels would be expected to show responsibility. The company is
looking for people who are tough and talented. They should have a flair for business,
know how to sell, and to work in a team.
Job analysis, description, and specification can provide useful information to a
business in addition to serving as recruitment instruments. For example, staff appraisal
is a means of monitoring staff performance and is a feature of promotion in modern
companies. In some companies, for example, employees and their immediate line
managers discuss personal goals and targets for the coming time period (e.g. the next
six months). The appraisal will then involve a review of performance during the
previous six months, and setting new targets. Job details can serve as a useful basis for
establishing dialogue and targets. Job descriptions can be used as reference points for
arbitrating in disputes as to 'who does what' in a business. Selection involves
procedures to identify the most appropriate candidates to fill posts. An effective
selection procedure will therefore take into consideration the following:
keeping the costs of selection down making sure that the skills and qualities being
sought have been identified, developing a process for identifying them in candidates
31
32. making sure that the candidates selected, will want the job, and will stay with the
company.
Keeping the costs of selection down will involve such factors as holding the interviews
in a location, which is accessible to the interviewing panel, and to those being
interviewed. The interviewing panel must have available to them all the necessary
documentations, such as application forms available to study before the interviews take
place. A short list must be made up of suitable candidates, so that the interviews do not
have to take place a second time, with new job advertisements being placed.
The skills required should have been identified through the process of job analysis,
description and specification. It is important then to identify ways of testing whether
candidates meet these requirements. Testing this out may involve: interviewing
candidates asking them to get involved in simulated work scenarios asking them to
provide samples of previous work getting them to fill in personality and intelligence
tests giving them real work simulations to test their abilities.
The external sources Of Recruitment are:
1. PRESS ADVERTISEMENTS
Advertisements of the vacancy in newspapers and journals are a widely used source
of recruitment. The main advantage of this method is that it has a wide reach.
2. EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTES
Various management institutes, engineering colleges, medical Colleges etc. are a
good source of recruiting well qualified executives, engineers, medical staff etc.
They provide facilities for campus interviews and placements. This source is known
as Campus Recruitment.
3. PLACEMENT AGENCIES
Several private consultancy firms perform recruitment functions on behalf of client
companies by charging a fee. These agencies are particularly suitable for
32
33. recruitment of executives and specialists. It is also known as RPO (Recruitment
Process Outsourcing)
4. EMPLOYMENT EXCHANGES
Government establishes public employment exchanges throughout the country.
These exchanges provide job information to job seekers and help employers in
identifying suitable candidates.
5. LABOUR CONTRACTORS
Manual workers can be recruited through contractors who maintain close contacts
with the sources of such workers. This source is used to recruit labor for
construction jobs.
6. UNSOLICITED APPLICANTS
Many job seekers visit the office of well-known companies on their own. Such
callers are considered nuisance to the daily work routine of the enterprise. But can
help in creating the talent pool or the database of the probable candidates for the
organization.
7. EMPLOYEE REFERRALS / RECOMMENDATIONS
Many organizations have structured system where the current employees of the
organization can refer their friends and relatives for some position in their
organization. Also, the office bearers of trade unions are often aware of the
suitability of candidates. Management can inquire these leaders for suitable jobs. In
some organizations these are formal agreements to give priority in recruitment to
the candidates recommended by the trade union.
8. RECRUITMENT AT FACTORY GATE
Unskilled workers may be recruited at the factory gate these may be employed
whenever a permanent worker is absent. More efficient among these may be
recruited to fill permanent vacancies.
33
34. Apart from these there are some other sources which are nowadays commonly used by
the organizations. These sources are
• Headhunting
• Third party recruitment
• Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)
• E-Recruitment
HEADHUNTING is a frequently used name when referring to third party recruiters, but
there are significant differences. In general, a company would employ a head-hunter
when the normal recruitment efforts have failed to provide a viable candidate for the
job. Head-hunters are generally more aggressive than in-house recruiters and will use,
advanced sales techniques such as initially posing as clients to generate names of
employees and their positions and personally visiting candidate offices. They can also
purchase expensive lists of names and job titles. They will prepare a candidate for the
interview, negotiate salary, and conduct closure to the search. In general, in house
recruiters will do their best to attract candidates for specific jobs while head-hunters
will actively seek them out, utilizing large databases, internet strategies, purchasing
company directories or lists of candidates, networking, and often cold calling. Many
companies go to great efforts to make it difficult for head-hunters to locate their
employees.
THIRD PARTY RECRUITMENT firms are usually distinguished by the method in
which they bill a company. Outside recruitment agencies charge a placement fee when
the candidate they recruited has accepted a job with the company that has agreed to pay
the fee. Fees of these agencies generally range from a straight contingency fee to a
fully retained service which is similar to placing an attorney on retainer. All
recruitment agencies are defined by the placement of a candidate to a particular job
within a company.
RECRUITMENT PROCESS OUTSOURCING (RPO ) is a form of business process
outsourcing (BPO) where an employer outsources or transfers all or part of its
34
35. recruitment activities to an external service provider. RPO may involve the outsourcing
of all or just part of recruitment functions and process. The external service provider
may serve as a virtual recruiting department by providing a complete package of skills,
tools, technologies and activities. The RPO service provider is "the" source for in-
scope recruitment activity.
On the other hand, occasional recruitment support, for example temporary, contingency
and executive search services are more analogous to out-tasking, co-sourcing or just
sourcing. In this example the service provider is "a" source for certain types of
recruitment activity differentiating. The biggest distinction between RPO and other
types of staffing is Process. In RPO the service provider assumes ownership of the
process, while in other types of staffing the service provider is part of a process
controlled by the organization buying their services.
e-RECRUITMENT covers a range of Web-based application tools used for the
provisioning (typically) of human resources. These applications assist in the
recruitment of suitable candidates for vacant positions. Some applications do this by
semi-automating the entire recruitment and hiring process. E-recruitment applications
(or software packages that are web-enabled) typically enable recruitment teams to
create job postings, manage job application responses, schedule interviews and manage
other recruitment tasks. This dramatically reduces the labor and money spent improves
the quality and quantity of the applicant pool.
Recruitment Policy Of a Company
In today’s rapidly changing business environment, a well defined recruitment policy is
necessary for organizations to respond to its human resource requirements in time.
Therefore, it is important to have a clear and concise recruitment policy in place,
which can be executed effectively to recruit the best talent pool for the selection of the
right candidate at the right place quickly. Creating a suitable recruitment policy is the
first step in the efficient hiring process. A clear and concise recruitment policy helps
ensure a sound recruitment process.
35
36. It specifies the objectives of recruitment and provides a framework for implementation
of recruitment programme. It may involve organizational system to be developed for
implementing recruitment programmes and procedures by filling up vacancies with best
qualified people.
Components of The Recruitment Policy
• The general recruitment policies and terms of the organization
• Recruitment services of consultants
• Recruitment of temporary employees
• Unique recruitment situations
• The selection process
• The job descriptions
• The terms and conditions of the employment
A recruitment policy of an organization should be such that:
• It should focus on recruiting the best potential people.
• To ensure that every applicant and employee is treated equally with dignity and
respect.
• Unbiased policy.
• To aid and encourage employees in realizing their full potential.
• Transparent, task oriented and merit based selection.
• Weightage during selection given to factors that suit organization needs.
• Optimization of manpower at the time of selection process.
• Defining the competent authority to approve each selection.
• Abides by relevant public policy and legislation on hiring and employment
relationship.
• Integrates employee needs with the organizational needs.
Factors Affecting Recruitment Policy
36
37. • Organizational objectives
• Personnel policies of the organization and its competitors.
• Government policies on reservations.
• Preferred sources of recruitment.
• Need of the organization.
• Recruitment costs and financial implications.
Selection Process
Selection is the system of functions and devices adopted in a given company to
ascertain whether the candidates’ specifications are matched with the job specifications
and requirements or not. The obvious guiding policy in selection is the intention to
choose the individual candidate who can most successfully perform the job from the
pool of qualified candidates.
Selection of personnel to man the organization is a crucial, complex and continuing
function. The ability of an organization to attain its goals effectively and to develop in
a dynamic environment largely depends upon the effectiveness of its selection
programme. If right personnel are selected, the remaining functions of personnel
management become easier, the employee contribution and commitment will be at
optimum level and employee-employee relations will be congenial. If the right person
is selected, he is a valuable asset to the organization and if faulty selection is made,
the employee will become a liability to the organization.
Selection Procedure
• JOB ANALYSIS: Job analysis forms the basis for selecting the right candidate.
It includes a detailed study of the positions for which recruitments are to be
made, in the form of Job Description and Job Specification
• HUMAN RESOURCE PLAN : Under this plan estimates are laid for the future
requirement of employees. This forms the basis for the future recruitment
function.
37
38. • RECRUITMENT : It refers to the process of searching for prospective employees
and stimulating them to apply for jobs in an organization.
• DEVELOPMENT OF BASIS FOR SELECTION : This involves the selection of
appropriate candidates from the applicants’ pool by adopting suitable techniques
for screening.
• APPLICATION FORM : This is also known as application blank. This technique
is utilized for securing information from the prospective candidates.
• WRITTEN EXAMINATION : Application form is followed by written
examination for the short listed candidates for assessing the candidate’s ability,
aptitude, reasoning and knowledge in various disciplines.
• PRELIMINARY INTERVIEW : Preliminary interview is to solicit necessary
information from the prospective applicants and to assess the applicant’s
suitability to the job.
• TEST : Test is essentially an objective and standardized measure of sample of
behavior from which inferences about future behavior and performance of the

o Aptitude Test : This test measure whether an individual has the capacity or
latent ability to learn a given job if adequate training. Aptitude test can be
further subdivided in to
Intelligence test

38
39. o Multi-Dimensional Testing : Organizations develop such tests in order to find
out whether the candidates possess a variety of skills or not, candidate’s
ability to integrate the multi-skills and potentiality to apply them based on
situational and functional requirement .
• INTERVIEW: In this step, the interviewer matches the information obtained
about the candidate through various means to the job requirements and to the
information obtained through his own observation during the interview. Tests
can be of following types:-
o Background information interview
o Job and probing interview
o Stress interview
o Group discussion interview

references in their application forms. This is done in order to verify the
information provided by the candidate.
• JOB OFFER : After taking the final decision, the organization has to intimate this
decision to the successful as well as unsuccessful candidates. Those selected are
offered the job and the candidate has to communicate his/her acceptance to the
offer. He/she can also approach the organization for the modification of the job
letter and in case things are not working out the offer is rejected by the
candidate.
39
40. • EMPLOYMENT : The Company may modify the terms and conditions of
employment as requested by the candidate and thereby place them on the job.
RECRUITMENT AND INDUCTION PROCESS
AT SRF PFBI
Recruitment is the process of identifying that the organization needs to employ
someone up to the point at which application forms for the post have arrived at the
organization. Selection then consists of the processes involved in choosing from
applicants a suitable candidate to fill a post. Recruiting individuals to fill particular
posts within a business can be done either internally by recruitment within the firm, or
externally by recruiting people from outside. The recruitment and selection process at
SRF PFBI begins with management determining the exact need of the posts to be filled.
There are a number of posts which have to be filled, for the different businesses. Then,
the management shortlists the resume of the candidate whose attributes match with the
job description and specification required for the job. The organization gets many
resumes of unsolicited applicants on a daily basis which they shortlist according to the
qualification and experience for a particular post. As the candidate visits to submit his
resume he is asked to fill in the first page of Personal Data Format (PDF) as shown in
Appendix 1, which is forwarded in the interview room.
The recruitment process at SRF PFBI starts with the enquiry/ walk-in management of
the candidate when he submits his resume, which consists of registration of the
candidates and eligibility verification of the candidate’s name, phone number, age,
qualification and experience. It also consists of taking two references of peers and
providing job brief and information regarding compensation, career progression and
expectation setting in the company.
40
41. Then, the screened candidates go through testing and evaluation stage . Where
selection tests are a valid method of assessing a candidate (i.e. effectively measures
the job criteria, is relevant, reliable, fair and unbiased – also considering the predictive
capacities of tests), they are an extremely useful tool and are recommended for use.
The candidates undergo a selection test and those who manage to score more than the
cut off make it to the next round. A sample of Aptitude Test is given in Appendix 3.
The Recruiter evaluates the tests and also validates the cut offs for them. The
evaluation sheets are then attached with the PDF sheet and interview assessment sheet
of the respective candidate before going in for the final interview.
As per the plan the final interview of the candidate will be with the management
personnel of the department and business for which the candidate has applied for. The
selected candidates are then made to complete the joining formalities and the rejected
ones are given feedback. A list of selected, shortlisted, on hold and rejected candidates
is also maintained by the organization for future use.

45. INDUCTION PROCESS at SRF_PFBI
An induction programme is the process used within many businesses to welcome new employees to the
company and prepare them for their new role.
Induction training should, according to TPI-theory, include development of theoretical and practical
skills, but also meet interaction needs that exist among the new employees.
Benefits of an induction programme
An induction programme is an important process for bringing staff into an organization. It provides an
introduction to the working environment and the set-up of the employee within the organization. The
process will cover the employer and employee rights and the terms and conditions of employment. As a
priority the induction programme must cover any legal and compliance requirements for working at the
company and pay attention to the health and safety of the new employee.
An induction programme is part of an organisations knowledge management process and is intended to
enable the new starter to become a useful, integrated member of the team, rather than being "thrown in at
the deep end" without understanding how to do their job, or how their role fits in with the rest of the
company.
Good induction programmes can increase productivity and reduce short-term turnover of staff. These
programs can also play a critical role under the socialization to the organization in terms of performance,
attitudes and organizational commitment.
A typical induction programme
A typical induction programme will include at least some of the following:
• any legal requirements (for example in the UK, some Health and Safety training is obligatory)
• any regulatory requirements (for example in the UK banking sector certain forms need to be
completed)
• introduction to terms and conditions (for example, holiday entitlement, how to make expense
claims, etc)
• a basic introduction to the company, and how the particular department fits in
• a guided tour of the building
• completion of government requirements (for example in UK submission of a P45 or P60)
• set-up of payroll details
• introductions to key members of staff
• specific job-role training
45
46. Best practice
In order to fully benefit the company and employee, the induction programme should be planned in
advance. A timetable should be prepared, detailing the induction activities for a set period of time
(ideally at least a week) for the new employee, including a named member of staff who will be
responsible for each activity. This plan should be circulated to everyone involved in the induction
process, including the new starter. If possible it should be sent to the new starter in advance, if not co-
created with the new starter
It is also considered best practice to assign a buddy to every new starter. If possible this should be a
person who the new starter will not be working with directly, but who can undertake some of the tasks on
the induction programme, as well as generally make the new employee feel welcome. (For example, by
ensuring they are included in any lunchtime social activities.
46
47. LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
It is always true that there is no end to learning and experimentation, similarly
we can never conclusively say that a study is complete. This study could also have
been more comprehensive but due to paucity of time, the number of vacancy floatations
and inductions were limited to a certain extent. Still the results deduced from the study
are well supported by the data available.
Had time permitted, the study could have also included the analysis of the interview
process and the success of the entire recruitment and selection process by calculating
ratios which were not included.
1. The data gathered over the entire span of this project may not be completely
accurate due to the unpredictability of human nature.
2. A short time-frame of only two months might not be enough to yield the desired
results that were envisioned during the commissioning of this project.
3. The results would had been better reflected if the study would had covered other
locations across the country
4. More representation from several departments at all levels would had given a
good mix to the respondents pool
47
48. RECOMMENDATIONS
Having considered all the responses available and the issues set out above, following
recommendations can be made:
1. Though SRF PFBI follows a strict process for reference check but still at occasions
the existing format proves to be inefficient. The main fault is the type of reference
check used. Resume check is the only method of background check adopted by SRF
PFBI. Verifying the information furnished, with the references provided by the
candidate himself does this. This method is open to ample amount of manipulation.
Candidate may tend to conceal information, which may reflect a negative picture of
his background, and the same could be critical for the organization. For this
purpose SRF PFBI needs to adopt other methods of background check. These could
be of following types:
• Criminal check : Here the candidate is checked for any involvement in unlawful
practices. This involves verifying with the local authorities that he/she is not
involved in any criminal activities. Else the candidate can also be asked to get a
certificate verifying the same.
• Resume check: This is most common method wherein the information furnished
by the candidate in the resume is cross checked with his/her past employer, or
the references provided in the resume.
• Education check : Education check demands the verification of the various
certificates and degrees awarded to the candidate. This pertains to verification of
the educational qualification assured by the candidate.
• Drug screening : This is checked by the medium of a medical examination
• Physical exam : Physical check is performed for the positions for which strength
and stamina is required. This can again be done by medical check
• Psychological testing : A psychological test is a standardized instrument
designed to measure objectively one or more aspects of a total personality by
means of samples of verbal or nonverbal responses. Psychometric assessments
48
49. are used to enhance the quality and quantity of available information and to
promote fairness and equality of opportunity for all.
2. Ensure an up-to-date job description which contains information related to :
• Specific tasks and activities required for a job
• The knowledge, skills and abilities required for effective performance by the job
incumbent
3. Evaluate the recruitment strategy to determine its efficacy. For example:
• Conduct a cost-benefit analysis in terms of the number of applicants referred,
interviewed, selected, and hired
• Compare the effectiveness of applicants hired from various sources.
4. Continuation of the Employee Referral Scheme and to monitor and expand the
scheme dependent on its success. But other sources should also be Incorporated to
bring high quality of talent to the company.
5. More information about job openings should be circulated at web-worlds all over
the country and the candidates could be screened through video conferencing at the
web-worlds itself so that the candidates don’t have to come all the way to another
city for the first round.
6. Other statistics should also be calculated from time to time to check the success of
the recruitment and selection process. They are:
• Selection rate - Percentage hired from a given group of candidates
• Acceptance Rate - Percentage of rejected job offers
• Success Base Rate -Comparing percentage rate of past applicants who were good
employees to that of current employees.
