resources play a pivotal role in an organization The growth of any organization has a direct correlation with its human resources These resources are highly perishable and critical in nature So they have to be monitored on an ongoing basis There are various factors which contribute to the growth of Human Resources Department They are: • Selection, recruitment and placement • Training and development • Performance appraisal and counselling • Reward – punishment (motivation) • Career planning • Management succession plan • Quality of work life • Organizational development All these factors are quite essential, and specific exercises have to be undertaken to harness the effectiveness of human resources These exercises have to be planned, be specific, and done on a continuous basis In spite of the equal importance to all these factors, training and development may be considered as the foundation on which the entire human resource development edifice is built up 1.2 Need for training in organizations Earlier it was a matter of conventional management thought that training is needed only for the employees in supervisory positions and is irrelevant to other subordinate employees Now there is a marked change regarding the training scenario It is now accepted categorically that training is very much needed for all employees irrespective of cadre, rank, salary and designation Download free eBooks at bookboon.com Training and Development Need for training in organization An organization without adequate exposure to training will have innumerable problems, conflicts and clashes which may not be visible or understood at surface level Moreover, there are tremendous all round changes in the working atmosphere due to development of science and technology In almost all organizations the working methods and procedures, processing and storage of data, management information systems, marketing, methods of transportation, wages etc are being changed continuously It is imperative on the part of the employees to have the necessary skills, knowledge and attitude orientation in order to adapt to the changing environment and for better performance

the quality, whatever the exercises, like advertising, campaigning, canvassing etc., the existence of the organization may prove to be useless Quality is a relative and a moving concept Improving quality continuously is also necessary to compete with similar products of other organizations In order to enable this, Research and Development maneuvers should be launched Training should be given to all employees in the areas like creativity, innovation, quality circles and others 1.2.3 Industrial climate A congenial and conducive working environment has its own influence on the productivity of the employees thus leading to healthy quality of work life The following factors are extremely important for the growth of the organization: • Physical atmosphere: It includes ventilation, light, adequate space, canteen facilities etc • Behavioural climate: It includes interpersonal relations, industrial relations, and ways and means for motivation Troublesome industrial climate leads to absenteeism, labour turnover, disputes, conflicts and other negative factors which affect the growth of the organization Adequate training in these areas contributes to healthy industrial environment in all the areas and also in achieving the corporate goals 1.2.4 Level of performance The mismatch between the existing and the expected level of performance of employees necessitates the formulation of training programmes both on emergency level as well as on regular basis The training formula can be depicted as: Training need = Expected level of performance - Existing level of performance It has been observed in many organizations that the lack of training is one of the major contributing factors resulting in the shortfall of quantity or quality of products Moreover, there may also be discrepancy between the actual job roles set out by the organization and the job roles perceived by the employees In such situation training plays a major role in setting right this role ambiguity
