6. Executive Summary
In today's rapidly changing business environment, organizations have to respond quickly to
requirements for people. Hence, it is important to have a well-defined recruitment policy in
place, which can be executed effectively to get the best fits for the vacant positions.
Selecting the wrong candidate or rejecting the right candidate could turn out to be costly
mistakes for the organization. Selection is one area where the interference of external factors is
minimal. Hence the HR department can use its discretion in framing its selection policy and
using various selection tools for the best results. The basic functions of Human Resource
Management: planning and forecasting human resource requirements, recruitment and selection,
training & development, appraisal, evaluation, handle employee grievance’s and employee
motivation.

Introduction:
Overview of Human ResourceManagement:
The term "human resource management" has been commonly used for about the last ten to
fifteen years. Prior to that, the field was generally known as "personnel administration." The
name change is not merely cosmetics.
Personnel administration, which emerged as a clearly defined field by the 1920s (at least in the
US), was largely concerned the technical aspects of hiring, evaluating, training, and
compensating employees and was very much of "staff" function in most organizations. The field
did not normally focus on the relationship of disparate employment practices on overall
organizational performance or on the systematic relationships among such practices. The field
also lacked a unifying paradigm.
HRM developed in response to the substantial increase in competitive pressures American
business organizations began experiencing by the late 1970s as a result of such factors as
globalization, deregulation, and rapid technological change. These pressures gave rise to an
enhanced concern on the part of firms to engage in strategic planning--a process of anticipating
future changes in the environment conditions (the nature as well as level of the market) and
aligning the various components of the organization in such a way as to promote organizational
effectiveness.
Human resource management (HRM), also called personnel management, consists of all the
activities undertaken by an enterprise to ensure the effective utilization of employees toward the
attainment of individual, group, and organizational goals. An organization's HRM function
focuses on the people side of management. It consists of practices that help the organization to
deal effectively with its people during the various phases of the employment cycle, including
pre-hire, staffing, and post-hire. The pre-hire phase involves planning practices. The organization
must decide what types of job openings will exist in the upcoming period and determine the
necessary qualifications for performing these jobs. During the hire phase, the organization selects
its employees. Selection practices include recruiting applicants, assessing their qualifications,
and ultimately selecting those who are deemed to be the most qualified.
9. In the post-hire phase, the organization develops HRM practices for effectively managing people
once they have "come through the door." These practices are designed to maximize the
performance and satisfaction levels of employees by providing them with the necessary
knowledge and skills to perform their jobs and by creating conditions that will energize, direct,
and facilitate employees' efforts toward meeting the organization's objectives.
The Historical Background of Human Resource
Management:
Human resource management has changed in name various times throughout history. The name
change was mainly due to the change in social and economic activities throughout history.
Industrial Welfare: (For provide the rights to workers)
Industrial welfare was the first form of human resource management (HRM). In 1833 the
factories act stated that there should be male factory inspectors. In 1878 legislation was
passed to regulate the hours of work for children and women by having a 60 hour week.
During this time trade unions started to be formed. In 1868 the 1st trade union conference
was held. This was the start of collective bargaining. In 1913 the number of industrial
welfare workers had grown so a conference organized by Seebohm Rowntree was held.
The welfare workers association was formed later changed to Chartered Institute of
Personnel and Development.
Recruitment and Selection: (Merit base hiring)
It all started when Mary Wood was asked to start engaging girls during the 1st world war.
In the 1st world war personnel development increased due to government initiatives to
encourage the best use of people. In 1916 it became compulsory to have a welfare worker
in explosive factories and was encouraged in munitions factories. A lot of work was done
in this field by the army forces. The armed forces focused on how to test abilities and IQ
along with other research in human factors at work. In 1921 the national institute of
psychologists established and published results of studies on selection tests, interviewing
techniques and training methods.
Acquisition of other Personnel Activities: (Introduce other HR
functions)
During the 2nd world war the focus was on recruitment and selection and later on
training; improving morale and motivation; discipline; health and safety; joint
consultation and wage policies. This meant that a personnel department had to be
established with trained staff.
10. Industrial Relations: (Negotiation b/w employers & employees)
Consultation between management and the workforce spread during the war. This meant
that personnel departments became responsible for its organization and administration.
Health and safety and the need for specialists became the focus. The need for specialists
to deal with industrial relations was recognized so that the personnel manager became as
spokesman for the organization when discussions where held with trade unions/shop
stewards. In the 1970's industrial relations was very important. The heated climate during
this period reinforced the importance of a specialist role in industrial relations
negotiation. The personnel manager had the authority to negotiate deals about pay and
other collective issues.
Legislation
In the 1970's employment legislation increased and the personnel function took the role
of the specialist advisor ensuring that managers do not violate the law and that cases did
not end up in industrial tribunals.
Flexibility and Diversity: (Introduced flexible work arrangements)
In the 1990's a major trend emerged where employers were seeking increasing flexible
arrangements in the hours worked by employees due to an increase in number of part-
time and temporary contracts and the invention of distance working. The workforce and
patterns of work are becoming diverse in which traditional recruitment practices are
useless. In the year 2000, growth in the use of internet meant a move to a 24/7 society.
This created new jobs in e-commerce while jobs were lost in traditional areas like shops.
This meant an increased potential for employees to work from home. Organizations need
to think strategically about the issues these developments raise. HRM manager’s role will
change as changes occur.
Information Technology
Some systems where IT helps HRM are: Systems for e-recruitment; On-line short-listing
of applicants; developing training strategies on-line; Psychometric training; Payroll
systems; Employment data; Recruitment administration; References; Pre-employment
checks. IT helps HR managers offload routine tasks which will give them more time in
solving complex tasks. IT also ensures that a greater amount of information is available
to make decisions.
Stages in the Developmentof HRM
Human resource management in Australia and the Asia Pacific region has progressed along
similar lines to its United States and United Kingdom counterparts, but with differences in the
stages of development, and in the relative influence of social, economic, political and industrial
relations factors.
11. The two main features of the US development of HRM are its initial emphasis on largely
administrative activities, directed by senior management, and then the move to a more confident,
business-oriented and professional approach in the 1980s and 1990s. Similar processes occurred
in the United Kingdom, with more early emphasis on the ‘welfare’ roles of personnel
practitioners because of the excesses of early capitalist industry, a strong humanitarian
movement and developing trade unionism. In Asian countries, there has been a blend of
administrative, paternalistic, cooperative, and business-focused HRM that varies between
countries depending on their cultures, stages of development, extent of government intervention
in the economy and industrial relations systems.
In Australia, HRM has developed through the following general stages.
Stage one (1900–1940s): administration stage
Stage two (1940s–mid-1970s): welfare and administration stage
Stage three (mid-1970s–late 1990s): human resource management and strategic
human resource management (SHRM) stage
Stage four (Beyond 2000): SHRM into the future

alternative work scheduling, dependent-care assistance, telecommuting,
and other programs designed to accommodate employee needs; identifies
and screen child- or elder-care providers; administers employer's private
dependent-care facility; promotes work and family programs to
employees.

with relocated employees' families, helping them adjust to their new
environment.
Managed-Care

embracing managed-care systems, which require employees to assume
some of the costs. Employers hire managed-care managers to negotiate the
best options for employees.
Managing Diversity
Develop policies and practices to recruit, promote, and appropriately treat
workers of various ages, races, sexes, and physical abilities.
HR Roles and Responsibilitiesin Changing
Environment
The HR Roles and Responsibilities needs to react to this basic request by the organization to
keep the level of the satisfaction. Nowadays, the HRM has to deliver even more.
The HR Roles and Responsibilities have to take the high-level recognition of the organization
and they need to be adjusted to make a full fit.
The HR Roles have to be adjusted to:
o Keep HRM Function focused on tracking and implementing new trends in the
industry.
o Keep HRM Function focused on helping the line management to implement
improvements.
o Keep HRM Function focused on operational excellence.
o Keep HRM Function responsible for developing the Human Capital potential in
the organization.
17. The HR Responsibilities have to be adjusted to:
o Demonstrate the Line Management the will to keep the responsibility for the
Human Capital costs

o Demonstrate the will to drive the main HR Processes to keep the organization in
the excellent health.
o Keeps HRM Function supporting the Business Strategy to reach the business
initiatives?
o keep HRM responsible for the tasks resulting from the Business Strategy
Role of Human Resource Management in the Organization HRM owns a significant role in
promising employee satisfaction, and resulting in improved performance and productivity of
employees. When any company envisions the business the top wish is to have a competent work
force pool, and placing the right person on the right job.
Afterwards, the talented set of employees uses other tangible and intangible resources and works
on taking decision when, where and from whom the resources should be obtained. The
knowledge and art of a manager makes him a man that holds the whole business and
organization.
HRM is crucial for companies to gain competitive advantage. Following are the three challenges
related to competitiveness: 1. Challenge of sustainability: There are various forms of firms or
organizations across the globe which operate at different levels and seem to be implementing
strategies which could not only improve.
According to Therith (2009), mentioned below is the new role of the HRM in the institute:
(i). Change through Leader In order to achieve already defined goals and gaining competitive
edge over competitors, leaders need to play a huge role.
They are required to support, facilitate and drive the changes to bring innovations, enhance
productivity and improve work quality
(ii). Human Resources Strategist Achievement of strategic objectives and goals of organization
is possible by associating and integrating the HR activities with the strategies. Human resource
strategists look ahead and plan HR development activities which enable and ensure good
performance resulting in goals achievement.
(iii). Business Strategist Under this role, an integration and participation in corporate strategy
formulation process is done to cope up with the challenges organization is facing and to give the
long lasting competitive edge. Organizational success is the result of well managed process of
strategy formulation. This success is multi-faceted encompassing satisfied customers, provision
of quality products, and customer services.
(iv). Alignment of Human Resources Function The integration of HRM in company’s strategic
process is mandatory for success of company. Input from HR managers is necessary while make
corporate strategies. The input should be about both organization and people related issues.
Programs ensuring presences of specific skills, behaviors and attitudes are developed in this
regard.
18. (v). Partner to General Manager For survival and success, and for organization to walk on the
road of success, HR owns a very important role in one way or the other. HR has a close relation
with line manager while making strategic plans, implementing the plans, and work designs. Line
managers help HRM to manage and control employees’ present performance, increments,
promotions and a need of more training, etc.
Hierarchyof HR department:
A HR department or a Human Resource department is one of the most important
departments of any organization like Garments and is vital to the functioning of the
system. HR executives who are employed in an HR department make several types of
resources available to the company and help in recruitment of new employees.
They make sure that only efficient employees are hired by the company and the hired
officials bring about maximum productivity. In large companies, there are large HR
departments consisting of several job positions. The following is a detailed account of the
hierarchy within a HR management branch of a company.
Senior Level Human ResourceManagementJobs
o The senior level HR jobs management are the top level jobs in this segment of
any business and these management executives take part in the decision making
process. They set guidelines on the basis of which the entire HR department
works and generally have several years of experience. The following is the
hierarchy of this section.
Human resource Director
Chief human resource officer
Human resource branch manager
General human resource manager
Human resource generalist
Assistant human resource manager
Deputy director payroll and legal
Middle Level Human ResourceManagementJobs
o Instructions of senior level officials and implement the decisions made by
them. They are the ones who decide salaries, manage payrolls, and make
decisions regarding growth and increments. Within this level of HRM jobs, there
are several managers handling various different works. This level of HRM
workers are those executives who are responsible for carrying out the aspects. The
hierarchy is given as follows:
19. Senior Human resource executive
Assistant director
Personal manager
Personal training manager
Personal manager of international relations
Personal manager of benefit and welfare
Human resource administrator
Executive human resource
Associate executive human resource
Assistant human resource administrator
Staff manager
Salary and wage manager
Industrial safety analyst
Human resource safety manager
Development and training manager
Human resource welfare administrator
OperationalLevel Human Resource ManagementJobs
o Entry level HRM jobs are those jobs which are given to new and fresh HR
employees. They handle the most basic Human resource management job duties
and work as per the instructions of their seniors. Operational level HRM
executives, when promoted move onto the mid-level segment jobs. The following
are some of the major job positions in this entry level segment of HRM.
Employment manager
Recruiter
Human resource manager
Department manager
Human resource assistant
Human resource analyst
Human resource associate
Human resource trainee
20.
21. E-HRM:
E-HRM is the use of web-based technologies to provide HRM services within employing
organizations. It embraces e-recruitment and e-learning, the first fields of human resource
management to make extensive use of web-based technology. From this base e-HRM has
expanded to embrace the delivery of virtually all HR policies.
Within a system of e-HRM, it is possible for line managers to use desktop computers
to arrange and conduct appraisals, plan training and development, evaluate labor
costs, and examine indicators for turnover and absenteeism. Employees can also use a
system of e-HRM to plan their personal development, apply for promotion and new
jobs, and access a range of information on HR policy. Systems of e-HRM are
increasingly supported by dedicated software produced by private suppliers.
E-HRM
It is the (planning, implementation and) application of information technology for
both networking and supporting at least two individual or collective actors in their
shared performing of HR activities.
E-HRM is in essence the devolution of HR functions to management and employees.
They access these functions typically via intranet or other web-technology channels.
The empowerment of managers and employees to perform certain chosen HR
functions relieves the HR department of these tasks, allowing HR staff to focus less
on the operational and more on the strategic elements of HR, and allowing
organizations to lower HR department staffing levels as the administrative burden is
lightened.
Overviewof Textile Industry:
‘The textile industry is primarily concerned with the production of yarn, and cloth and the
subsequent design or manufacture of clothing and their distribution. The raw material may be
natural, or synthetic.’
Textiles are the most important manufacturing sector of Pakistan and have the largest production
chain, with inherent potential for value addition at each stage of processing from;
cotton to ginning,
spinning,
fabric,
processing,
made-ups and garments
22. The sector contributes nearly one-fourth of industrial value-added, provides employment to
about 40% of industrial labor force, and consumes more than 40% of banking credit to
manufacturing sector and accounts for 8% of GDP.
Barring seasonal and cyclical fluctuations, textile products have maintained an average share of
about 60% in national exports. However, despite being the 4th largest producer and 3rd largest
consumer of cotton globally, Pakistan’s comparative advantage is largely pre-empted by low
value added exports as reflected in country’s 12th rank in world textiles exports.
Reason for the best in the market is our labor. On the other hand there is a horrible fact that they
don’t have sufficient salaries and rewards that’s why top quality performers (employees) of
Pakistan market have been moved to other countries especially to the Bangladesh market. So
here comes the role of human resource practices. Implementation of human resource practices
can only be applicable to the organization that is learning and knowledge organization. Keeping
in view the competitiveness of the textile market one must have such practices so that the
employees could be retained and satisfied.
There is not a significant work in this industry in context of human resource management and
reason is that top management never realizes the needs and demands of their employees. There
are few textile mills that are practicing the human resource management in its full strength and
they are getting maximum benefits from it and it is fact that they are the leaders. So to develop a
better understanding a research is carried to know the benefits to practice the human resource
and evaluating the losses if don’t.
Introduction of HRM in TextileIndustry:
• The advent of technological advancement in industrial set-ups has altered the working
conditions and requirements on the part of employees and employers. Also the changes in
government policies have also been taken place since the last decade.
• Different work patterns like night shift, part time work, overtime, etc. is being
experienced. The situation is same in textile sector also.
• The advent of HR practices in textile sector was rather slow in comparison to other
industrial sectors. But due to globalization there is increase in competition as a result
development of human resource has become essential.
• However organized HR practices are being adopted mostly by the mill sector. In last
decade we have seen not so good performance by textile sector, this was because of lack
of HRD department in many mills. But the scenario has changed as HRD departments
have taken up their role in textile sectors.
23. • Various training programmers pertaining to training of workforce, textile related topics
have helped in enhancing the overall performance of the textile companies.

Men
The man is ultimate resources of the organization because they think, speck, so that utilization of
this resource is very critical. Every success of origination is depending on efficient and effective
man power. HR starts when a man enters in the organization and its end, when he leaves the
organization .HR deals with the human dimension.
Success or failure of an organization depends on the effective coordination of the resources such
as money, material, machinery and men. Among these, the role and operation of men is the most
complex. All the activities of an organization are initiated and completed by the persons who
make up the organization. Therefore, people are the most significant resources of any
organization. HRM is known by different names – Personal management, personal
administration, man power management.

26. Human ResourceDevelopment:
Textile industry gives employment to millions of people. In order to recruit skilled workforce in
textile sector, proper training programs would thus facilitate in supply of well qualified
workforce. Thus the role of HRD has gained momentum in terms of employing manpower that
satisfies the professional requirements of this sector and that is well skilled. Thus much
collaboration among many multinational companies and educational institutions has been
observed.
The HRD department of any company is responsible recruiting skilled labors and executives,
allocation and planning of work, monitoring of workforce and performance appraisal. It is also
responsible to timely up gradation of skills of the workforce by organizing educative
professional workshops or seminars. If HRD activities are carried out in proper professional

increased stability of the company, flexible enough to cope up with futuristic developments and
most important maximizes production.
Human Resources Strategies for the TextileIndustry:
Recruitment:
o Textile industries promote the work of fashion designing, product pattern and
styles, so your human resources strategy should focus on recruiting suitable
skilled manpower for the production function as well as sales and marketing
departments. Personnel in these areas are crucial to the productivity, performance
and bottom line of your company. If you operate globally, recruit talented local
candidates whose overall compensation will likely be several times lower than
deployed personnel with similar skill levels from the home office.
Orientation:
o Intensive orientation to the employee is one of the major functions of human
resource management. The program should help the employee to know his
assigned duties and his exact job description, job role, and the relationship of
position to other positions in the organization. It gives clarification to the
employee to take an active role in the organization.
27. Maintaining goodworking conditions:
o It is the responsibility of the human resource management to provide good
working conditions to the employee so that they may like the workplace and the
work environment. It is the fundamental duty of the HR department to motivate
the employees.
o The study has been found that employees don’t contribute to the goals of the
organization as much as they can. This is because of the lack of motivation.
Human resource management should come up with a system to provide financial
and non-financial benefits to the employee from the various departments.
Employee welfare is another concept which should be managed by HR team.
Employee welfare promotes job satisfaction.
Training:
o Human resources personnel have to develop programs to train employees to adapt
to new technology that improves production operations in a changing garment
market. Typically, such training courses help employees enhance their career
growth and update new products for competitiveness. You also will need soft
skills training courses on sales and marketing as a strategic management endeavor
for increased sales volumes. Human resources should have a qualification system
for existing and new employees to determine their respective training needs. For
best results, align the training programs in home and overseas subsidiaries with
your firm’s strategic goals and objectives.
CompensationPolicy:
o Your human resources strategy should establish a salary and compensation policy
to encourage your existing workforce to stay and attract qualified candidates to
your firm. Perform periodic reviews of salary levels to ensure workers are
remunerated competitively.
28. o Incorporate an incentive system based on employees’ performance, such as
instant bonuses for the sales team once they get contracts or year-end bonuses for
reaching performance targets. Determine compensation for overseas subsidiaries
based on company regulations and the dynamics in the labor market.
Work Environment:
o Human resources should ensure a favorable working environment. Implement
safety and security measures, such as having fire alarms, first aid and monitoring
systems in place. Establish a professional working environment. Spell out job
descriptions to avoid confusion. An open door policy can improve communication
and productivity when implemented correctly. Integrate diversity by
accommodating cultural values such as religious holidays or prayer times,
especially for overseas branches. Hold regular team-building events to connect
workers across departments and management, as well as reduce working stress.
Managing Employee relations:
o Employees are the pillars of any organization. Employee relationship is a very
broad concept and it is one of the crucial functions of human resource
management. It also helps to foster good employee relations. They have the
ability to influence behaviors and work outputs. Management should organize
activities which will help to know an employee at the personal and professional
level. Well-planned employee relations will promote a healthy and balanced
relation between the employee and the employer. It is the key for the organization
to be successful.

Lack of initiatives
HR CHALLENGES:
Human Resource
o The textile sector employs 45% of overall labor force, with 38% of the
manufacturing Workers employed under textile sector.
o Pakistan has the advantage of cheaper labor as compared to its competitors, but
unfortunately the labor productivity is very low.
o There are hardly any training programs to develop the skills of labor hence; the
craftsmen entirely depend upon their inherited skills with no advancement and
movement towards technical knowledge.
New TechnologicalChangesin the Textile Industry
o The challenges of the work environment of this current scenario have created new
knowledge, ability, and talent requirements for human resource. For example,
ongoing developments in new technology are redesigning the process of
production, and the talent requirements of job.
o Most employees are use a new technology like computer, the Internet or some
other machinery in textile industry it’s a form of new technology at working area,
in the upcoming, days the fast speed of technological development is seen and it
increases the demand for high skilled and well-qualified human resource. This
involve that workers, particularly older workers who may not have been ready to
changes with new technology, for this purpose need to engage in training
activities to remain capable in the work force.
Lack of Training:
o The textile industry has a higher ratio (73%) of male workers and only (27%) of
female workers. A higher proportion of textiles workers have no degree,
certificate, diploma (29%).respondent of the textile industry survey and the
interviews were asked about how they provided training to their Human Resource.
30. o Formal training was given by 68% of textile industry and informal training by
32%.

development for human resource. It is also possible that the absence of human
resources plan for the skills development. In the textile industry survey, 16% of
respondents felt that to training for existing workers. 52% are stated a lack of
training to their textile industry. It’s a need to providing training. Internal training
was used to develop skills in the use of machinery and equipment in the working
area.
o Limited availability of trained technical staff to maintain and run machinery at
full efficiency is a constraint upon the development of Pakistan’s textile industry.
o This shortfall is partly due to a lack of technical education facilities.
o Some of the developments in the textile industry include: Advances in ring
spinning, computerized dyeing and finishing, computer-aided designing,
manufacturing and developing retailing links hence, all these demand new and
greater skills and Pakistan lacks it.

o Although Pakistan has the ideal climatic conditions for the growth of cotton
providing a factor advantage to the textile industry, but it is also quite vulnerable
to pesticides that can lower the yield per hector.
o The textile sector is largely dependent on the supply of raw material of the
agricultural sector and hence whatever happens to the agricultural sector like
floods will adversely affect the textile industry rendering it even more vulnerable
to environmental conditions.
32. Textile Industry Pros and Cons:
ADVANTAGE DISADVANTAGE
Pakistan has the advantage of cheap labor as
compared to its competitors, but unfortunately
the labor productivity is very low.
There are hardly any training programs to
develop on the skills of these labors and the
craftsmen depend upon their inherited skills
with no advancement.
SWOTAnalysisof Textile Industry:
STRENGHTS:
• Self-reliance
• Manufacturing flexibility
• Abundance of raw material production
• Design expertise
• Availability of cheap labor
• Growing economy and domestic market
• Progressive reforms
WEAKNESSES
Research & Development (R&D)
o Developed countries are using the technology of biotechnology and genetic
engineering to increase the quality and quantity of their cotton production. In
Pakistan, there is very some research done on small scale by private companies.
Practically no efforts are being made by the APTMA (All Pakistan Textile Mills
Association) in the R&D of the textile industry to enhance the quality of its
products.
Highly fragmented sector.
High dependence on cotton.
Lower productivity.
Declining mill segment
Technological obsolescence
Non‐participants in trade agreements
Poor Quality Standards.
o Pakistan’s textile industry should focus on latest material handling techniques and
should train workers. The inability to timely modernize the equipment, machinery
and labor has led to the decline of Pakistani textile competitiveness.
33. THREATS
New Competitors
o Pakistan is facing new competitors in textile sector such as Bangladesh, Vietnam and
Turkey. Though we cannot avoid competition but we can always stay ahead of them
by reforming our strategies and educating our entrepreneurs so as to move one step
forward in every aspect.
Phasing Out Of Quota System
o As the quota system is ruled out by WTO, there is a threat by the Chinese and Indian
manufacturers to gain most of the market share. We have high costs, low labor
productivity and inefficient production processes.
Fashion Life Cycle
o Fashion changes day by day these days. Media has so much penetrated in our daily
lives that we easily adapt ourselves as it wants us to. This has resulted in shortening
the fashion lifecycle thus increasing the fashion risk. Now the buyer does not want to
wait long for his consignment because he is insecure that by the time it will reach to
him he will lost its demand due to change in fashion. Therefore, they prefer to buy
from neighboring countries even at higher cost to get their products instantly rather
than to wait weeks or months for their consignments to reach them.
Stiff competition from developing countries; especially China and
India.
Pricing pressure.
Locational disadvantage.
International labor and environmental laws.
ENVIROMENTAL ISSUES:
o Textile industry is associated with some environmental issues some of them are:
Large volumes of water.
Usage of complex chemicals.
Discharge of untreated effluent
Water Pollution.
Air Pollution
Labors concern.
HR OPPORTUNITIES:
o Many textile sectors provide an opportunity for quality improvement such as: plan,
new technology, education and training. Understanding of these areas may help much
in quality improvement. Increase demand and consistent growth rate indicates that
human resource has great opportunities to utilize its’ capacity for foreign markets.
Increasing health consciousness of human resource goes to use natural textile
products from artificial one. So, tendency might increase the global market.
34. For textile HR can do:
Identification of people requirement i.e. why & how much to be required ,because in
textile every process requires different numbers of peoples for say spinning section
requires much more as compare to garment.
After this, HRM find out where they are available, i.e. internal or external for say
education institutes or competitors or etc.
Next is training, textile training is very much important, because entire thing is
depend on this. If training is wrong or doesn’t give result then origination loses the
time, money and effort. In textile we should concentrate on training .In this, there are
4 types of training i.e., internship, remedial, refresher, promotion training.
HRM provide these by two methods i.e. on the job and off the job. Training should
match with organizational goal, job profile, job description, characteristics of trainee.
After this HRM should evaluate the training program by taking interview report
submission or by field observation
Next is performance appraisal
Compensation and rewards have to be individually charted depending on the intellect
brought in by the employee along with the time frame for its delivery. The company
should have reward programs on a group basis for knowledge workers. The
Performance Appraisal system must have built in rewards for system creators
Responsibilityof HR Departmentin Textile Industry:
It is necessary to have job analysis information as it helped to short list the candidate list
and to conduct interview.
It is observed that if the description and person specification is not available then it is
responsibility of the relevant department to prepare that document with the help of HR
department, staffing activities cannot be commenced without any reference to document.
Line managers are involved in final selection of the candidate and HR planning at the
department level, while HR staff is more interested and involved in matters like policy
making, recruiting candidates and their early screening processes.
Involvement of HR department in hiring process helps to enhance knowledge of the
workforce and required skills.
It is also helpful for the identification of upgrading skill requirement of the employees.
By such involvement, good communication seems to have synergy effect and helps to
unify the workforce.
As a result of this communication, negotiations happen in more positive atmosphere
which has an ultimate effect on the quality within the workforce.

with swinging moods and negative attitudes.
• Even without consciously meaning to, managers stop believing in these employees and
thus begin a cycle that revolves around distrust, low performance and failure.
• You may end up losing such employees and star performers.
Why it is important to build Self Esteem in Employees?
• Employees with high self-esteem are more productive, committed and are simply more
motivated.
• They have more productive relationships with other coworkers and are able to accept
criticism gracefully.
• Professional self-esteem can be defined as the belief of each employee in their
competence and that they have all the necessary skills to perform their job.

enhances their personal skills. Human Resource programs and functions i.e. recruitment &
selection, training & development, compensation & rewards, performance appraisal & feedbacks
etc. improve the quality of work-life by creating an employee supportive workplace. Textile
Industry is a very big business industry in Pakistan. Pakistan is considering the world
contributing country in the Ready Made Garments (RMG). Knit is also major raw materials of
textile industry. World’s most of the brands are making their dress from Pakistan. So it’s very
competitive market. In that market if anyone wants to success they need skilled worker. If the
organizations provide necessary training to their employees they can increase their productivity.
This study was a learning experience for us and we came to know the HR department in the
textile industry shows positive in response but still more focus on HR functions, strategies and
practices is needed in the textile industry so that the employees are motivated time by time and
they should know their strength & weakness so that they can work on it & improve their
knowledge & skills for the betterment of their organization.
In the last but not the least we conclude that all the HR functions of textile company should

Information Systems software.
Approaches used to train employees should be selected after careful consideration of the
trainees and organization needs.
To motivate and encourage the employee’s adequate allowance should be provided to
them during the working period.
The Textile companies should increase their training budget, because without a big
budget the companies would not be able to introduce modern technology in their training
system.
