ABSTRATCT

This study was conducted wit the few objectives in mind which were to study the HR practices in organization , to find out the problems faced by employees of the organization ,to find out the certain factors responsible for high attrition rate in the organization and to suggest some way by which the company can retain its employees. Employee attrition is a serious issue, especially in todays knowledge-driven marketplace where employees are the most important human capital assets; attrition impacts an organizations competitive advantage. Turnover is measured for individual companies and for their industry as a whole. If an employer is said to have a high turnover relati ve to its competitors, it means that employees of that company have a shorter average tenure than those of other companies in the same industry. High turnover can be harmful to a company's productivity if skilled workers are often leaving and the worker population contain a high percentage of novice workers With these objectives a primary research was conducted .For Secondary data ,detailed analysis of the attrition patterns department wise ,grade wise ,time span wise, qualification wise and month wise was done. Based on which the Report has been formed. The Primary data was collected through a few unstructured interviews and questionnaire which were administered to employees of ICM SOLUTIONS. During the research 50 Employees were covered .survey Results revealed tat most important factor behind employee attrition is opportunity for development and growth, Second most important factor is Salary ,Third most important content is job content and fourth most important content is relationship wit the supervisor . At the end I suggest certain activities that ICM can take in order to reduce the attrition rate and retain the employee.

INTRODUCTION

I INTRODUCTION 1.1 ATTRITION DEFINITION A REDUCTION IN THE NUMBER OF EMPLOYEES THROUGH RETIREMENT, RESIGNATION OR DEATH

Figure 1.1

In the best of worlds, employees would love their jobs, like their co workers, work with dedication for their employers, get a good salary for their work, have sample opportunities for growth, and flexible schedules so they could attend to personal or family needs when necessary. And never leave. But then there's the real world. And in the real world, employees do leave, either because they want more money, hate the working conditions, hate their co workers, want a change. The attrition rate plays a significant role in an organization. High attrition rate of employees in an organization is a serious concern because the employees are the human capital. Some of the organizations have started searching the cause due to which the employees are leaving the organization. There are some organizations specially belonging to IT, Telecom, and various other sectors which are facing high attrition rate. Due to high attrition rate, cost of the organization increases due to training, development, socialization and other costs on the employees. Attrition rate is high basically in an organization whose work is mostly dependent on knowledge workers.

Attrition is defined as reduction in the number of employees through retirement, resignation or death. The rate of shrinkage in size or number of employees is known as attrition rate. Attrition of employees in a limited measure is desirable for influx of new ideas in any type of organization. It helps organizations to maintain their agility in fast changing environment. It brings in new blood, opens up new vistas for change, development and improvement, shows avenues to expand operations and add to the creative lines of the organizations. Attrition in a limited measure can thus bring gains to the organization. However if attrition increases beyond a certain level, the gains are transformed into pains. Recruiters explain that high attrition rates significantly increase the investment made on employees. Significant investments in time and money need to be made for acquiring employees in any organization. These can never be translated into profit when attrition is high. Different organizations use different method to calculate the rate of attrition. The most common formula to calculate the rate of attrition used by many organizations is: ATTRITION RATE = ((NO. OF ATTRITIONS X 100) / (ACTUAL EMPLOYEES + NEW JOINED)) /100. Employee attrition especially in sales force is one of the critical problems which are faced by IT Companies during these days. In an ideal situation an employee consider multiple comfort level while working in a office for e.g. employer's goodwill in the market, remuneration, future growth, working condition, co-workers, current role's scope in the market & most important future stability with the organization. In a survey, approximate 70% of the working population in India is not happy at all due to one of the aspect (as mentioned aforesaid) which is not fulfilled while working in a organization which caused higher attrition rate. In broad term, attrition is a situation which employer face when employee left the organization due to job dissatisfaction, new opportunity in the market, retirement & natural cause (death/illness).. Earlier it wasn't important for the organization, whether their employees are committed or not, but now the time has been changed. The company cannot afford to lose its best employee to competitors. Therefore, It is a paramount consideration for insurance companies to think, why people are vacating their positions.

REASONS FOR ATTRITION

1.2 REASONS FOR ATTRITION

Figure 1.2
It is not easy to find out as to who contributes and who has the control on attrition of employees. Various studies/survey conducted indicates that every one is contributing to the prevailing attrition. Attrition does not happen for one or two reasons. The way the industry is projected and speed at which the companies are expanding has a major part in attrition. For a moment if we look back, did we plan for the growth of this industry and answer will be no. The readiness ain all aspects will ease the problem to some extent un our country we start the industry and then develop the infrastructure. All the major IT companies have faced these realities. If you look within, the specific reasons for attrition are varied in nature and it is interesting to know why the people change jobs so quickly. Even today, the main reason for changing jobs is for higher salary and better benefits .At the same time the attrition cannot be attributed to employees alone

ORGANIZATIONAL MATTERS WORKING ENVIRONMENTS JOB MATTERS SALARY AND OTHER BENEFITS PERSONAL REASONS

Figure:1.3

1.2.1 ORGANIZATIONAL MATTERS


The employees always assess the management values, work culture, Work Practices and credibility of organization. T h e I n d i a n companies do have difficulties in getting the businesses and retain it for a long time. There are always ups and downs in the business. When there is no focus and in the absence of business plans, non-availability of the campaigns makes people to quick move out of the organization.

1.2.2 WORKING ENVIRONMENTS


Working environment is the most important cause of attrition. Employees expect very professional approach and international working environment. They expect very friendly

and learning

environment. Employees look for freedom, good treatment from the

superiors, good encouragement, friendly approach from one and all, and good motivation.

1.2.3 JOB MATTERS


No doubt the jobs today bring lots of pressure and stress is high. The employees leave the job if there is too much pressure on performance or any work related pressure. It is quite common that employees are moved from one process to another. They take time to get adjusted with the new campaigns and few e m p l o y e e s f i n d i t d i f f i c u l t t o g e t adjusted and they leave immediately. Monotony sets in very quickly and this is one of the main reasons for attrition. Youngsters look jobs as being temporary and they quickly change the job once they get into their own field. The other option is to move to such other process work where there is no pressure of sales and meeting service level agreements (SLA). 4

1.2.4 SALARY AND OTHER BENEFITS


Moving from one job to another for higher salary, better positions and better benefits are the most important reasons for attrition. The salary and offered from MNC companies in Bangalore, Delhi and Mumbai have gone up very high (Rs 15000 to Rs 18000 per month) and it highly impossible for the Indians to meet expectation of the employees. The employees expect salary revision once in 4-6 months and if not they move to other organizations.

1.2.5 PERSONAL REASONS


The personal reasons are many only few are visible to us .the foremost personal reasons are getting married and falling in love. The most important personal reason is going for higher education. Most of the BE, MCA appear for the GATE examination or other examination and since they get cleared they quickly moved out. Health is another aspect, which contributes for attrition. Employees do get affected with health problems like sleep disturbances, indigestion, headache, throat infection and gynecological dysfunction for lady employees. Employees who have allergic problems and unable to cope with the ac halls etc will tend to get various health problems and loose interest to work

OVERVIEW OF THE COMPANY

INSTITUTE OF COMPUTER MANAGEMENT 2.1 FOUNDER OF ICM GROUP & SOLUTIONS

Figure 2.1

The youngest Vice President of fifth largest public utility in US called LONE STAR GAS had decided to come home and serve the country. He was featured on the cover page of most popular political weekly called Junior Vikatan. He was introduced to Tamil Nadu as "America" Narayanan by the Tamil magazine 'Junior Vikatan' in a cover page article, since then he is commonly called as "America" Narayanan by auto drivers, Slum dwellers and others in Tamil Nadu. However, he wants to be a humble public servant; hence, uses his name as Americai (means 'humble' in Tamil) V. Narayanan. Having lived in USA for 13 years and having built himself up to the top ranks of an American Company, Narayanan, now living in Thiruvanmiyur has decided to enter Tamil Nadu politics. He met Karunanidhi, Panruti Ramachandran, P.Chidambaram and G. K. Moopanar. Founder of ICM and an MBA (USA), CPA (Texas) & CMA. He worked in the US for over 13 years and held various management positions in Fortune 500 companies. Prior to forming ICM he was with Lone Star Gas, USA, as Vice President/Treasurer. ICM Solutions was founded in 1994(formerly ICM Exports) by the same professionals who founded ICM Computer Consultants in 1988, which today is one of the largest computers and peripherals leasing companies in South India.

2.2 CEO OF ICM SOLUTIONS

Figure2.2

Ms. Kalyani Narayanan, CEO of ICM Solutions, served as CEO of Allfon Systems, a US based multinational software start-up Company for over 5 years before assuming her position at ICM Solutions recently. Prior to Allfon, she was with another multinational IT Solutions company, Covansys. She has obtained her degree from the University of Houston, Texas, and worked for various companies in the US such as Sprint, and Pennzoil before relocating back to India. Ms. Narayanan has managed several software projects under various technologies, from mainframe to client server to web based solutions, both in the US and in India and US-India (onsite-offshore) based. As Mr. Thomas L. Friedman says in his book 'The World is Flat', in this 21st century, globalization has offered tremendous potential world over where people are able to do what they do best and outsource everything else to the respective markets. Such phenomenon is not only for larger companies who could afford to experiment and take the risk to learn from it, it also applies to SME segments. Moreover, outsourcing software services to India is no longer a risk - it is a way of doing business. We, at ICM, believe that we have the capability to delight you with our expertise in various software services. And we would like to make it worth your while to explore us with our 'No Risk' offer.

2.3 MESSAGE FROM CEO


Our business objective is that ICM Solutions should help our customers to effectively compete in their businesses by being their "Offshore Partner of Choice" for software solutions and related services. I am aware that such an objective requires a deep sense of commitment and high level of energy. I am confident that with careful planning and close monitoring we will achieve our goal. We realize that the primary tool in accomplishing the objective is our people: We have the best set of people in the industry who do not fear change and who constantly tackle every customer's pain with creative and effective solutions. By constantly motivating and leading them to perform better - to do things smarter, faster, and cheaper - and by creating an environment and the freedom to do so, we get closer to becoming the Choice Partner for our clients. From the management perspective, I see our path to reach the goal lies in constantly managing three aspects in our engagements:

Find out where we are - by actively seeking client satisfaction feed back and analyzing our own performance metrics Figure out where we should be - set achievable objectives based on where we are and enhancing our processes that would allow us to accomplish that

Be there - by effectively communicating this to the entire team and by carefully measuring and monitoring constantly to ensure that we get to where we want to be.

Of course, this is not a single cycle process but an iterative process that constantly engages everyone in the company to relentlessly show improvements. It is my duty and responsibility as the CEO of ICM Solutions that the company's objective is met where everyone - the clients, the employees, and the community - come out as winners and no one is compromised. So far, in our 18+ years of being in business, many clients have helped us to serve them better and the relationship has promoted us from a mere "client - vendor" relationship to one of "partnership". This indicates that we are on the right path and we look forward to more such partnerships to get us closer to accomplishing the objective.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Project management is the discipline of organizing and managing resources in such a way that these resources deliver all the work required to complete a project within defined scope, time, and cost constraints.Our project managers use PMBOK as the guiding tool to ensure that all aspects of project management are appropriately defined and controlled. The first challenge of project management is ensuring that a project is delivered within the defined constraints. The second, more ambitious challenge is the optimized allocation and integration of resources to meet those pre-defined objectives. At ICM, our PMs effectively utilize the resources and knowledge base to meet the agreed upon objectives. Our continuous improvement in the activities such as status reporting, usage of tools and tracking mechanism constantly improves our productivity thus providing a better value for money for our customers.

METHODOLOGY
Methodology is a set of rules that defines what needs to be done, when it needs to be done, and who is responsible for doing it. It also explains the relationships between all the efforts and actors. It includes a set of policies, procedures, standards, processes, practices, tools, techniques, and tasks that practitioners apply to the technical challenges of the project. Setting an appropriate development methodology for a particular software project is especially important if the project is outsourced and developed offsite. The methodology must reflect the increased need for determination of exact project goals, elaboration of detailed development plan, and specific testing and quality control procedures to guarantee excellent communication level and mutual project objectives vision of a software developer and a customer.

Still we are open to use any other methodology our clients prefer. During recent years we have worked with Rational Unified Process, Object-oriented methodology, Prototype/Iterative based methodology, and Extreme Programming.

INTEGRATION
Almost all Fortune 2000 companies are planning several major IT projects in the next several years. Some of them will include Online E-Commerce, B2B, B2C, integration of new with existing ERP systems, acquisitions or redesign changes, business intelligence, CRM and mobile solutions. Most of these new systems will be implemented using the data of today's legacy systems, which leads to integration of these applications.

Application Integration cost can be divided in to three parts:

Table 2.6

Architecture cost from integration development, execution and operational environment set up. It includes the license, new hardware and implementation costs. Integration cost from development of the number of interfaces and communications between systems. Operating cost from on-going maintenance of the EAI system

Why companies integrate their applications?


To support their business workflows and data exchange across several applications, companies need to integrate these applications. The main goal is to provide scalable and reliable data exchange between multiple enterprise applications with functions across multiple software packages with flexibility in using accounting software, CRM or ECommerce package that suits the company needs.

18

Technology solution providers understand that and focus solutions around specific main functions.
There is typically three reasons in application integration over using APIs: 1. Evolving technology. Using application integration tools would easy the pain in performing the work in comparing in using APIs. 2. Maintenance of the integration of the existing applications. It takes too long to maintain integration of application than use an EAI tool. 3. Scalability of your corporate solution. When your company solution evolves, it's too difficult to use API in comparing an EAI tool. A typical API merely allows implementing a full-featured communication exchange with a third party application or component. From other side a suite of EAI services performs event exchange, routing, connectivity, and business workflows implement

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

V REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Johnson and Gill (1993) describe motivation in work organizations as the processes by which people are enabled to and induced to choose to behave in particular ways. Motivation is therefore coupled with a search for the ways by which members job performance and productivity may be enhanced or maintain. Employee involvement has a direct correlation with productivity, quality, efficiency, absenteeism, and even motivation. Employee involvement has received much attention in the area of work organization in recent decades. Although changes in the work organization during the last decades are diverse and difficult to summarize by a few key concepts, there has emerged an agreement that employee involvement and monetary incentive systems are important measures in modern personnel management (Delery and Doty 1996), (Appelbaum et al. 2000), (Godard 2004). Addison et al. (2000) shows that establishments of different sizes might be affected differently by employee involvement. Employee involvement produces improved enterprise performance through diverse channels including enhanced discretionary effort by employees (Jones et al 2003). There is also a high association between peer review and employee involvement in work organization and better the peer review, better is the efficiency towards work. Employee involvement also affects the important 16 dimensions of individual performance, organizational citizenship behavior, defined as individual discretionary behavior that promotes the organization and is not explicitly rewarded. The main principle behind all initiatives for increasing the involvement of workers is to get the lower-level staff more involved in the decision making and work processes, and to grant these employees greater autonomy and control over job tasks and methods of work (Cappelli and Rogovsky 1994). Typical measures teamwork, lean management, and reduced hierarchic levels (Godard 2004). Hackman and Oldhams Job characteristics model has been used to develop the conceptual model for the research. The Job Characteristics Model by Hackman and Oldham (1976) focuses on the interaction between the psychological states of employees, the job characteristics that are believed to determine these states and the attributes of individuals that determine how positively a person will respond to a complex and challenging job. Few of the aspects of the model have been amended with reasons. This amended model then generates a base for the theoretical skeleton of the research model. Naqvi and Ramay(2008) revealed that job satisfaction and organizational commitment had a negative effect on turnover intentions, whereas perceived alternative job opportunities had a significant positive correlation with turnover intentions and is the major factor associated with turnover intention among its professionals.

Van Dick et al. (2004) have also identified job satisfaction as a predictor of turnover intention; however, they argue that it is a mediating variable between organizational identification and attrition. Abbasi and Hollman (2000) sought to determine the impact of employee turnover on an organization and found that excessive employee turnover often engenders far reaching consequences and at the extreme may jeopardize efforts to attain the organizational objectives. Maslow (1943) propounded the Hierarchy of Needs theory originally applied as a general theory of psychological motivation. However, the usefulness of its theoretical model was adopted by organizational theorist McGregor in 1960, who applied Maslows theory in the work place. Hale (1998) stated that employers cited recruitment costs of 50% to 60% of an employees first years salary and up to 100% for certain specialized, high-skill positions. Bowen and Shuster (1986) stated that while all constituting elements of an organization are important for its success, it is its enhanced ability to attract and retain the best quality talent that separates it from the others. Mirvis and Lawler (1984) suggested that Quality of working life was associated with satisfaction with wages, hours and working conditions, describing the basic elements of a good quality of work life as; safe work environment, equitable wages, equal employment opportunities and opportunities for advancement. Walton (1973) suggested eight major conceptual areas for understanding quality of work life.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

VI RESEARCH METHODOLOGY:
Research in common parlance refers to a search for knowledge. Research is an endeavour to discover answers to problems (intellectual and practical) through the application of scientific method to the knowable universe Research methodology is a way to systematically solve the research problem. It may be understood as a science of studying how research is done scientifically. In it we study the various steps that are generally adopted by a researcher in studying his research problem along with the logic behind them.

6.1 HYPOTHESIS:
Ho: Rate of attrition of employees is independent of income H1: Rate of attrition of employees is dependent of income Ho: Rate of attrition of employees is independent of working life in organisation

H1: Rate of attrition of employees is dependent of working life in the organization

6.2 RESEARCH DESIGN:


Research design is a catalogue of the various phases and the facts related to the formulation of a research effort. It is an arrangement of conditions for collection and analysis of data in a manner that aims to combine relevance to the research purpose with the economy in procedure. Descriptive research design means research design in a case of descriptive studies which is concerned with describing the characteristics of a particular individual or of a group.

DESCRIPTIVE RESEARCH:
Descriptive study is a fact finding investigation with adequate interpretation. It is the simplest type of the research. It is more specific than an exploratory study, as it focuses particular aspect or dimension of the problem being studied. It is designed to gather descriptive information and provides information for the formulating more sophisticated studies. Data are collected by using one or more appropriate methods like: observations, interviewing and mail questionnaires.

POPULATION AND SAMPLE:


A sample as the name implies, is a smaller representation of a larger whole. A sample is a composed of some fraction or a part of the total number of elements or units is a defined population. Sampling therefore is a method of selecting some fraction of a population. Sampling is an essential part of all scientific procedures. It is well developed in the field of biology, physics, chemistry and social science research. The research undertaken comprised of population of all the employees working in ICM solutions.

28

SAMPLING METHOD:
In this research effort Convenience Sampling has been used. This method is used to make research procedure faster by obtaining a large number of accomplished questionnaires rapidly and efficiently. The sample for conducting the survey contains employees of above mentioned companies.

METHODS OF DATA COLLECTION:


The two main sources of data collection in a social science research come from the inner world of the library and outside world of living people. We may label these two sources simply under the general rubric of documentary or paper sources. We may consider historical records, diaries, biographies and statistical records. When we turn to consider people as a source social science data, we identify various forms of observation, but more particularly and primarily the interview and questionnaire are the techniques for the collection of the data from the source.

A) PRIMARY DATA:
Primary data is the information collected during the course of an experiment during experimental research. It can also be obtained through observation or through direct communication, with the person associated with the selected subjects, by performing surveys or descriptive research. There are several methods of collecting primary data. We have used Questionnaire to collect data.

B) SECONDARY DATA:
Secondary Data means data that is already available in various reports, diaries, letters, books, periodicals, etc. Secondary data is that, which has been used previously for any research and is now in use for the second time. In short, data presented in research reports when used again in further research, is called secondary data.

29

SAMPLING DESIGN
Population Sampling Unit Sampling Size : 50 members : Employees : 28

Sampling Procedure : simple random sampling method

METHOD OF DATA COLLECTION:


Primary data are measurements observed and recorded as part a study to collect original data i.e., to conduct first hand of investigation. Secondary data was collected with the help of Company records Annual reports Product catalogue Discussion with the personnel manager and staff.

RESEARCH INSTRUMENT:
Questionnaire was used to conduct the survey among the 28 employee which includes open-ended and closed ended questions.

30

TOOLS FOR ANALYSIS PERCENTAGE METHOD


It refers to special kind of ratio .It is used to asking comparisons between two or more series of data. Percentage are used to describe relationship.

Percentage=((no. Of attritions x 100) / (Actual Employees + New Joined)) /100.


Chi square test: It is one of the most widely used non-parametric tests, in statistical work. The quantity describes the magnitude of discrepancy between theory and observation.

63

SUGGESTIONS

To Reduce The Attrition

From the study it was found that the employees were highly disappointed by their salary structure.

Only one type of training program is given like seminar and conference related to their specific job is given.

Superiors should continually review the employee performance and give them as a positive support, individual Interest should maintained.

Employee welfare should be maintained properly on a monthly basis .

Attrition Rate in ICM solutions has been strongly agreed by the employees.

64

CONCLUSION

CONCLUSION

In this research work, we have examined the reasons of attrition in ICM SOLUTIONS. All the attributes have highest value with their corresponding factors. From the above discussion, We can conclude that attrition is a common phenomenon in any industry, Resulting, employees face a great difficulty to sustain the job. If we consider the factors which is related to the quality of work life, in that case Degree of employment conditions are one of the curtail factor for attrition. Rewarding the employee ca help to reduce the attrition ,yearly performance appraisal ,care about the employee welfare these things can reduce the employee make stay in the job for long time. Since the data we got were too small to put that into chi square test, the results may vary if we have put much more data. Future research scope is always there.
