HR Organization Structure – An Introduction

Proposed Organization Structure

HR Roles and Responsibilities Dossier


HR Organization Structure – An Introduction
Organization structure is an important foundation stone that determines the organization’s
achievement of its goals. An appropriate organization structure will help clarify the focus areas of the
organization, delineates the core business activities of the organization from the non-core areas and
organize functions & activities that enables achievement of the organizational goals.
Organization structure is essentially giving a shape to organizational task which will lead to
achievement of organizational growth. Necessarily, an organization structure should be based on the
future growth plan of the organization. Typically, an organization is structured based on the following
dimensions, aimed at meeting its future growth plans:
Specialization: Division of the organizational task at the lower levels
¦

Integration of the organizational task at intermediate and higher levels


¦

Span of control
¦

Centralization of certain organizational tasks


¦

Specialization
High Low
Integration
Homogeneous Heterogeneous
Span of Control
Few Many

Centralization
High Low

Division of task: This is the process of dividing work into relatively specialized jobs to achieve
advantages of specialization in following areas:
Personal specialties: Sales & Marketing, Service, Finance, CR & U-Trust
¦

Natural sequence of work:


¦ dividing work in Functional Departments (horizontal specialization)

Specialization: For organizations in a mature market with specialized products and services, it is
imperative to have a specialized structure. A generalist structure, over time, will lead to lower levels of
efficiency and consequently erosion of value to customers. On the other hand, for commodity
products or services, a generalist structure would be appropriate.

HR Organization Structure and Roles & Responsibility 7


HR Organization
Integration: All the divided tasks need to be integrated at a higher level in order to ensure effectiveness
of task completion. The integration of tasks should be such that there is appropriate direction and
leadership for successful completion of the divided tasks.

Span of Control: This is one of the key determinants of integration of divided tasks. Empirical evidence
suggests that the most appropriate span of control for an integrator / manager is 8. This will ensure
providing appropriate direction, leadership, review and control, effectively.

Centralization: In any organization, there are certain tasks that are common, which are shared by a
large number of employees. Also, certain tasks, where the volume of work is low are typically
centralized.

De-centralization: This is the process of distributing work to a wider body of employees based on
optimal utilization of resources as well as the capability of employees to take decisions to fulfill their
role requirements.

The following sections discuss the proposed HR organization structure for dealerships - for Head Office
and Outlet.

Note - The above structure indicates only the roles and not employee numbers

About the structure:


Five specialist areas have been proposed namely - acquisition, talent management, learning and
¦
development, HR operations and compliance compensation and benefits.
The required
¦ focus on every HR activity can be brought about through the Specialist structure.
. The main work of the Specialists would be to strategize various interventions, establish policies,
¦
processes, formats and implementation at the Head office and Outlets.
These Specialists
¦ have been supported by few team members down the line, keeping in view
the quantum of work involved at dealership
This gives
¦ more autonomy and authority to the role holders for their area of work, thereby
fostering empowerment.
Due to
¦ the clear cut demarcation of activities, other employees have greater clarity with
regards to approaching the right person based on their requirements.
The positions
¦ chalked out above are responsible for their respective functions for the entire
dealership including the outlets. For example, the talent acquisition Specialist shall be
responsible for all talent acquisition activities for all the outlets of the dealership.
Every outlet
¦ would further have team members in HR department to implement the initiatives
conceptualized by the Specialists.

¦ (Annexure B.9) which gives an
overview about the recruitment operations of the dealership.
All the
¦ relevant resumes / CV received during the recruitment process is to be sorted and
organized and kept either in hard or soft format for further usage. This will help the dealership to
create their own databank which can be used during future recruitment drives.
HR department can clean the resume database on annual basis wherein they can discard resumes
¦
which have not been used for a year.
HR should try and maintain soft copies of the CVs wherever possible as it will help save paper and
¦
also the same can be easily accessible for future use.

Performance Appraisal Policy

Objective
The objective of the policy is to:
Build a performance culture
¦

Recognize and reward performance


¦

Align individual and organizational objectives for better engagement


¦

Enhance Accountability
¦

Employ as an effective measure for Talent management


¦

Scope
This policy applies to all the employees in Toyota Dealership. The policy covers following aspects:
Guidelines
¦

Principles
¦

Overview of Performance Management System


¦

Defining the Performance Management system


¦

Guidelines
The Performance
¦ Management cycle will be conducted on an annual basis. For annual
performance review financial year will be considered which is from April 1st to March 31st.
After the
¦ appraisal cycle is initiated, it should be completed in the next 90 days and the salary
enhancement will take effect from 1st of April for that year.
Employee
¦ who joins in the month of September will be considered for full appraisal where as
employees joining between October to December will be considered for appraisal on pro rata
basis.

Principles
The Performance
¦ Management System has been designed based on the philosophy that an
effective performance appraisal process is critical to the development of employees leading to
new standards in business excellence.
Design
¦ principles articulate the foundations of the performance management system. While
designing the system care has been taken that it best fits into the overall organization philosophy,
culture which is consistent with business goals.
The key design principles to be followed while designing this Performance Management System
¦
are:
¡Linkage with Organizational Objectives (Hoshin) : The system should establish a clear linkage
with organizational objectives through a goal / target setting mechanism. Organizational
targets / objectives need to be cascaded to individual targets and these should be set at the

68 HR Standards - 2013
beginning of the review process. This will ensure that responsibility and accountability for
individual’s performance are built into the system.
¡Transparency and Openness: The performance review system should be transparent. It
should include self-appraisal and a feedback mechanism to ensure involvement of the
employees in the process. Discussions should be held with the employees at various stages of
the process to make the system more open. Also the performance review should be
conducted every six months to ensure that employee receives timely feedback on
performance.
¡Linkage with other HR Systems: There should be clear linkage with variable pay, annual
compensation increments, promotions, training, rewards and other HR systems. This will help
build a performance oriented culture in the organization and motivate performers.
¡Linkage with Employee Development: The system should be used to capture data for
employee development and training needs. Moreover, the system should provide for
objective assessment of an individual’s potential for taking on higher roles and
responsibilities.

Overview of the Performance Management System


Performance Management is an on-going process of defining, measuring, improving and sustaining
performance. It translates an organization’s philosophy, mission, strategy, values and culture into
action areas and cascades them throughout the organization.
The Performance Management process attempts to systematize good practices to ensure the
alignment of employee goals to the overall organizational goals. Performance management consists
of three on- going processes that help ensure an objective appraisal system in the organization. They
are as depicted below:

Define Performance
Expectations

Performance
Measure & Management
Reward System

Ongoing Coaching

HR Sub System Policies 69


Defining Performance Expectations
Defining Performance Expectations is one of the most critical aspects of the performance
management system. Without a clear understanding of expectations it is difficult for employees to
know where to focus their efforts.

Expectations give direction and focus to a role, helping employees to understand what they need
to achieve and defining what success means in their role. They also help to define priorities and ensure
that, at an individual level, an employee’s contribution is focused on the organizational business
objectives.

Performance expectations are set through


Goal Setting: Setting specific, challenging goals that clarify precisely what is expected and hence
¦
lead to high levels of performance
Measures: Determine the extent to which goals can be qualitatively and quantitatively defined as
¦
well as objectively measured
Targets: They are the benchmarks against which the achievements on the goals are assessed.
¦

On-going Training and Feedback


A process of training and feedback facilitates performance and helps to focus on the strength and
improvement areas of employees. It also eliminates roadblock to successful performance. On-going
feedback helps build a rapport between superiors and subordinates which enhances performance.

Measure and Reward


Measures help in appraising employees against pre- set targets. A reward mechanism that is tied to
performance encourages performance. Providing sufficient amount of rewards, that employees value,
in a timely and fair manner motivates employees and must be seen as an end to any appraisal process.

Defining The Performance Management System

Elements of the Performance Management System


The proposed performance appraisal system will have the following seven main elements:
Performance Objectives (Linked with Hoshin)
¦

Agreement on Objectives
¦

Mid - Year Review


¦

Year End Review


¦

Bell Curve Distribution


¦

Feedback & Training


¦

70 HR Standards - 2013
Appraising Authorities
The Appraising Authorities are of two levels –
Appraiser
¦

Reviewer
¦

The Appraising authorities are expected to follow the time schedule while completing the annual
appraisal form:

Appraiser: The annual appraisal for each appraisee will be done by the immediate superior.
¦ While
completing the appraisal form, the appraiser will take into consideration the self-appraisal form
completed by the employee and the goals and targets achieved by the employee. The Appraiser
will also be responsible for on-going Training & Feedback including the annual performance
feedback.
Reviewer: The annual appraisal report for most of the employees will further be reviewed by their
¦
respective reviewers. The reviewer will be responsible for reviewing the performance targets and
appraisal ratings, discuss and moderate the same with the appraiser.

Quarterly Review
A quarterly review will be conducted at the end of each quarter.
¦

The quarterly review is a scheduled discussion between the employee and the supervisor to map
¦

performance It will ensure to establish performance culture with focus on assigned KRAs / KPIs

¦

Mid - Year Review


A Mid-year Review is scheduled between August and September.
¦

The Mid-year
¦ Review is a scheduled discussion between the employee and the supervisor to
review the employee’s progress in meeting the set performance goals.

HR Sub System Policies 71


Relevance of a Mid - Year Review:
¦
¡One can re-visit goals that were set earlier and modify or make suitable corrections if required
as the certain goals may have lost their importance due to various external and internal factors
affecting the business.
¡Employees can receive timely feedback on performance, so that there are no surprises d u r i n g
the final review.
¡Both, the employee and the supervisor can use the opportunity to assess what additional
inputs or resources will be required for the successful achievement of set targets.

Year - End Appraisal


Self-Appraisal - An employee (appraisee) is expected to document his/her goals and targets and
¦
substantiate the results achieved by citing specific examples. The appraisee is expected to rate
their performance by awarding ratings to themselves for every objective that is applicable for
them (KRA’s / KPI’s). They should also provide a summary of their performance in a clear and a
concise manner and submit the same to the appraiser for evaluation. All this should be done with
in the timelines as specified by HR department.
Appraiser
¦ Review - The Reporting Manager (Appraiser) is expected to assess the employee’s
performance for the review period against the set goals. The Reporting Manager evaluates the
employee’s performance and awards a rating against all the objectives that are applicable to the
employee. The Reporting Manager also, provides a final overall rating for the performance.
The Business Head /Functional Head reviews remarks of the appraiser, counter signs with reasons
¦
for agreement or disagreement with the evaluation of the appraiser

Based on the organizational structure and the goals, we would follow a combination of the MBO
(Management by Objectives) option to set KRA’s / KPI’s and Bell curve (Forced Ranking) to distinguish
the performers from the non-performers and link them to HR systems accordingly.

Setting Performance Objectives
Timeline: Mid-March to April 1st week
This is the first step in the performance management system where the performance expectations are
set. Setting performance expectations is one of the most critical parts of any performance
management system. Without a clear understanding of expectations it is difficult for employees to
know where to focus their efforts.

Expectations give direction and focus to a role, helping employees to understand what they need to
achieve and defining what success means in their role. They also help to define priorities and ensure
that, at an individual level, an employee’s contribution is focused on the organization business
objectives.

Performance Expectations
Key Result
¦ Areas: Performance Expectations are set through performance appraisal form (refer
Annexure B.10) Setting specific, challenging goals in the form of Key Result Areas that clarify
precisely what is expected and hence lead to high levels of performance. Further the Key Result
Areas need to be:
¡Vertically Aligned (cascaded from the organization / function / division goals)
¡Horizontally Aligned (recognize interdependencies across functions and individuals)
Key Performance
¦ Indicators: Determine the extent to which the Key Result Areas can be
qualitatively and quantitatively defined in the form of specific measures as well as objectively
measured through standard and accepted organization metrics. The performance indicators
need to be balanced in the form of:
¡Short Term & Long Term
¡Financial & Non-financial (Process, Customer & Capability)
¡Lead (drivers) & Lag (outcome)
¡Internal & External
Weightage:
¦ Key Result Areas are prioritized by defining weightages. Weightages signify the
degree of importance of the performance measure. Weightages are to be allocated depending on
the relevance / criticality of the Key Result Area along with the effort required to accomplish the
same. The impact of the strategic objectives should also be taken into consideration for assigning
weightages to the Key Result Areas.

Process for Setting Performance Objectives


Human Resources will initiate the performance objectives setting process at the beginning of the
¦
performance period. The process of initiation would include:
¡Preparing a list of employees for whom Performance Objectives need to be set
¡Ensuring that sufficient number of performance review forms are available for distribution
¡Completing the personal details in the form before distribution
For employees with a change of position, this process will be initiated as and when the position /
¦
role is changed.
HR Sub System Policies 73
The forms will be handed over or e-mailed to the employee by the Human Resource Department
¦

The concerned appraisee and appraiser will schedule a date and time for discussions to reach a
¦
common understanding of the performance.
During the discussions the appraisee and appraiser will mutually agree on the following:
¦

¡Performance objectives / Targets against each of the KRAs


¡Action plan to achieve the objectives
¡Training & Developmental Plan
The appraiser will ensure that the objectives set are in line with the organizational objectives and
¦
enough support is provided to the appraisee to achieve his / her performance objectives.
Training
¦ & Development Plan is completed in close consultation with the Human Resource
Department.
Once an agreement is reached, the appraisee and the appraiser will sign on the agreed objectives.
¦

Reviewer will review the agreed performance objectives of the training & development plan and
¦
provide inputs to strengthen them.
Two copies of the form will be kept (one for the appraiser and other for appraisee) and the original
¦
is sent to the Human Resource Department by 15thApril.
The forms will be filed in the personal file of the employee and used for Mid - Year and final year
¦
review process.
The Human Resource Department will analyse the training needs from the completed forms and
¦
formulate a suitable action plan to address training gaps identified.

Mid – Year Review


Timeline: 1stSeptember – 15thSeptember (refer Annexure B.10 & B.11)
The objective of the mid-year review is to:
Ensure relevance of the Performance Measures.
¦

Ensure that the appraisee continues to have meaningful targets for the remainder of the year.
¦

Ensure that the appraisee is on track against the original goals, and to recognize successes that
¦
have already been achieved.
Ensure remedial plans are discussed for areas of improvement.
¦

Process
The performance objectives must be reviewed at least once upon completion of six months from
¦
the date of formulation of objectives.
The Human
¦ Resource Department will initiate the Mid - Year Review Process by releasing the
individual performance appraisal forms for Mid - Year review
The mid-term assessment for target review will include a structured discussion including a status
¦
update, plan of action for remaining six months and resource requirements that need to be
committed by the appraiser. No rating will be given during Mid - Year review.
74 HR Standards - 2013
During
¦ the discussion the appraisee may raise concerns or highlight areas of discomfort to the
appraiser during the mid-term review process.
Mid - Year review discussion will need to be documented in the Performance Appraisal Form and
¦
sent back to the Human Resource Department.

Year End Appraisal


Timeline: 1st of March – 31st March (refer Annexure B.10 & B.11)
The objective of Year End Review is to assess and quantify the individual’s performance throughout the
year and provide inputs to other HR Systems (Rewards & Recognition, and Career Progression). It also
assesses the extent of implementation of the training & development plan and provides for an
opportunity to holistically discuss an individual’s performance.

The review should be an interactive process involving a discussion between the appraisee and the
appraiser. At the end of the review process, the appraisee and appraiser should reach an agreement on
performance rating and the training and development needs.

Process
The annual
¦ review process will be initiated by the HR Department by sending performance
appraisal forms to individual employees.
The appraiser and the appraisee will fix up a date and time for review discussions. The appraiser
¦
should understand the guidelines on pre-discussion, discussion and documentation and use this
to explain the Appraisal Form to the appraisee (this would be done only in the initial phases, when
people are still not familiar with the system).
The appraisee will complete the form and hand it over to the appraiser (within 5-7 days of getting
¦
the form from the appraiser). This will enable the appraiser to prepare himself for the discussions
with the appraisee.
During the review meeting the appraiser and the appraisee will focus on:
¦

¡Performance highlights in terms of achievements against defined performance objectives


and shortfalls in the performance
¡At the end of the discussions the appraiser and appraisee should arrive at an agreement on
performance rating on all the objectives and sign in agreement
¡After the discussions the appraiser will complete his / her section of the form and give a final
performance rating
The form
¦ will be sent by the appraiser to the reviewer for his / her comments. In case of
disagreement, the reviewer shall discuss ratings with appraiser. At the end of the discussion (if

Once the
¦ above procedure is completed, the bell curve concept is implemented department
wise. Hence department head would plot the team members of his / her team into a normal
distribution curve based on the following guidelines:
¡10% of the team members who exceed expectations.
¡50% of the team members who meet expectations.
¡30% of the team who somewhat meet expectations.
¡10% of the team members who do not meet expectations.
The results
¦ of the report are linked to the HR systems pertaining to rewards and recognition
and an increment and career progression plan is devised.
The bottom
¦ 10% of the team members who do not meet expectations are not eligible for any
increment and can be put on performance improvement plan for 3 months wherein new goals
and KRA’s / KPI’s will be shared by the departmental head with the concerned employee. On
completion of the 3 months his / her performance will be reviewed by the reporting manager
and departmental head and decision will be taken on continuation of his / her services.
Employees
¦ who have performed extra ordinary during the year can be considered for
Promotions but the gradual movement to another role will completely depend on the p o s i t i o n
availability and business requirements. Also annual performance appraisal results will act as
guiding force for such decisions and employees who have outshined all will be considered for
promotions.
HR Department will carry out budgeting process for promotions. In this process no of positions
¦
open for promotions will be finalized. HR will work out the promotion criteria based on the
potential, performance and tenure with in the organization. Individuals potential / competency
will play the key roll for decision.
Increment
¦ percentage will be decided by the HR department in consultation with the Dealer
Principal and CEO. Increment percentage is driven by the business performance and
profitability of the dealership during the financial period.

Time line: On-going
Training & Feedback is not a once-a-year event. It is a continuous process whereby feedback is given to
the employee during formal and informal discussions. However, it is important to have a formal
feedback session in the middle and at the end of the Appraisal cycle. The aim of this is to formally
communicate to the employee on his/her performance and the areas of improvement.
The formal feedback session should be conducted by the appraiser, at the end of the review process.
During the feedback discussion the appraiser should keep the following key rules of a good feedback
discussion in mind:
Describe, don’t judge: The feedback should be presented as a description of what has happened
¦
and should not be accompanied by a judgement.
Refer to
¦ specific behaviours: Relate all the feedback to specific items / data pertaining to
behaviour.
Select key issues: Select key issues and restrict to them.
¦

Be constructive: Focus on aspects of the appraisee’s performance that can be


¦ improved.
Provide positive feedback: Provide feedback on the things that the appraisee did well in addition
¦
to the areas for improvement.
Performance Review Discussion – It is very essential to close a performance appraisal with a
Performance Review Discussion. It is the Discussion between the individual and Reporting Officer on
the performance in terms of the plans made in the beginning of the year, achievements, the High and
the Low of performance, the standards expected, the limitations faced, problems encountered etc. It is
also an occasion to discuss aspirations, career goals, avenues in the organization to meet career goals,
support needed from the superior and the management for performance etc.

¦

many people simultaneously. An individual might present a grievance indicating that few or more
individuals are getting affected with the same cause. But that would get verified by the dealer
management separately.

HR Compliance Policy 147


Not every

business-like manner.
There shall be a Grievance Handling Committee to investigate grievances of employees in Toyota
¦
Dealership. The committee would comprise of DP / CEO, Functional Heads and Head of HR. The DP
/ CEO will be the head of the committee. If the grievance is against any of the committee member,
the committee will replace the concerned member with their reporting authority. And if the
grievance is against the CEO, the complaint would be redressed by the DP.
The Committee shall meet on the last day of every month to analyze, deliberate and discuss the
¦
nature of grievances and proactive / preventive measures for ensuring non-repetition of similar
cases as much as possible
All members
¦ must be present at the committee meetings. The members of the Grievance
Handling Committee are expected to evaluate any case in a fair, unbiased and just manner.
Once a grievance is rejected on any grounds, the same grievance should not be filed again by the
¦
same employee under any circumstances for a period of 3 months from the date of grievance
redressed. In the event of an employee found filing the same case within 3 months, the employee
will have to face disciplinary action for non-conformance of office policies and procedures
An employee
¦ is not allowed to submit the same grievance either to the same management or

Compensation is a systematic approach to providing monetary value to employees in exchange for
work performed. Compensation may achieve several purposes assisting in recruitment, job
performance, and job satisfaction. Compensation management, also known as remuneration
management, or reward management, is concerned with designing and implementing total
compensation package.
Factors Affecting Compensation

a. Demand and supply of labor


Demand and supply conditions of labor have considerable influence on the determination of
compensation. If there is a short supply of labor, the wages may be high whereas if there is no dearth of
labor, the wages tend to be low. How this statement needs to be interpreted by Toyota Dealership is
that, for the levels where the company feels that there is difficulty in recruiting people the
compensation needs to be reviewed. For other departments / functions there can be a gradual
increase in the compensation based on the growth of the company

b. Cost of living
The cost of living of employees also has a strong influence on the rate of compensation. If this factor is
not considered, the employees may not be in a position to make both ends meet and this will affect
their efficiency. Hence progressive employers consider this factor while determining the
compensation. In the context of this aspect makes an impact as the organization is spread out to
different parts of the country and the employees are coming from different walks of life. At different
levels in the organization people from different cost of living groups are recruited hence giving due
consideration of this aspect may help the organization to plug their compensation levels.

168 HR Standards - 2013


c. Prevailing wage rates (external parity)
Prevailing compensation in the industry also needs to be considered by the employers while deciding
the compensation levels for their organization. By considering the prevailing wage level, organization
will come reasonably close to the compensation level of competitors, and this will enable them to
retain and attract qualified workers to the organizations. The conduct of the survey will help to
evaluate the external parity which they would like to bring in their compensation levels

d. Ability to pay
The compensation level, to a large extent, is determined by the ability of the organization to pay its
employees. The ability to pay in turn is determined by the profit-earning capacity of the organization.
Hence while deciding the increase in the compensation after conducting the survey needs to
essentially align the same with the proposed business growth of the organization and the results
which have been achieved.

e. Job requirements
Job requirements are also an important factor affecting compensation. Jobs requiring specialized
knowledge or involving much mental or strategic effort are priced higher than those which are light or
which do not need any specialized knowledge.

f. Increment system
In some organizations compensation automatically increase annually at a prescribed rate without any
relation to employees’ performance. In some other organizations annual increases based on merit.
Thus, the prevailing system of granting increments also affects the compensation.

Implementation HR Policies

Steps in Implementation
For an organization to implement and revise the current HR policies and processes following steps are
recommended:

Step – 1 Establish Central HR Policy Group/Team


Reviewing existing policies or in absence creating new policies, it is recommended to establish HR
policy group / team at Head Office, which can have members from Outlets which will help to
understand the policies from locational aspects. The policy group/team creates and maintains all HR
policies across functions and locations, ensures alignment of policies, and minimizes overlap or
contradiction of policies.

Step – 2 Assess and Implement policies Prioritization of Policies


It is recommended to prioritize HR policies having maximum impact on the working of the
organization and same depend on organizations unique goals and initiatives. These drivers influence
the management of HR policies throughout the policy lifecycle and drive communication tactics,
enforcement, and frequency of review. Most drivers affecting HR policies reflect risk management
needs, but vary among the three perspectives:

184 HR Standards - 2013


HR Policy Driver

Adhere
¡ to regulatory requirements and legal obligations
Legal and Regulatory including those specific to regions / states.
Compliance
Educate employees about possible sources of risk.
¡

Address practices specific to an organization’s unique culture,


¡
operating model and span of operations.
Drive
¡ profitability via established operating procedures and
performance standards.
Business Operations
and Performance Drive employee productivity through known procedures and
¡
performance standards.
Provide leaders/managers with tools to govern effectively.
¡
Drive ability to compete with organizations in a similar
¡
industry.

Maintain consistent practices of importance to employees


¡
Provide equitable privileges and benefits across the employee
¡
population
Employee Define performance and behavioral expectations for
¡
Engagement employees
Enhance employee relations and engagement, thus driving
¡
performance and retention

Policy prioritization also depends on the age of the organization and stage of evolution it is into.
Dealerships more than 3 years of operations should focus on revising the systems and processes which
are directly linked to performance enhancement and retention of employees and also systems which
can help them understand the nerve of the organization like exit analysis etc. For dealerships lesser
then 3 years of operation it is necessary to focus on legal and statutory requirements e.g. maintenance
of employee records and issuance of appointment letters and compliance with leave rules etc.

Implementation Guide 185


Step 3 - Conduct Current Policy Assessment vis a vis new policies
Once the HR policy group / team prioritizes the policies then as a next step they assess the current
policies vis a vis the new proposed policies. The assessment is carried out to identify the gap and
changes to be made.
Decision Tree for Conducting HR Policy Reviews

Does the policy currently

Does the existing policy Does the proposed Has your company Did the same ever exist

Step 4 - Policy Revision


On identifying the changes to be made the HR prepares the draft policy by retaining the relevant
points of the old policy and incorporating new parts from the proposed policy. The draft version of the
policy is discussed and presented to various stake holders who could be the departmental heads. The
stakeholders analyze the effect of the policy on the employees and current working of the
organization and share their suggestions and recommendations. HR policy group/team incorporates
the suggestions and present the report to Principal Dealer for approval.

Step 5 - Approvals from the Dealer Principal


Once all the departmental heads approve the policy the same is submitted to Dealer Principal for his
review and approval. Once the approval is received same is documented and communication plan for
the employees should be prepared.

186 HR Standards - 2013


Step 6 - Communication to the Employees
It is considered to be very important to educate employees on new or updated policies and processes.
Organizations design and use various methods to communicate policies to the employees. The main
techniques are e.g. Employee self-service measures and customized push communication tactics. As a
starting point HR should do communication meetings. These meetings should briefly communicate
the purpose of introducing new policies or updating the ones old. The message should highlight how
employees and company will be benefited out of it and the method that will be used to create
awareness of the policies. Few of the communication measures are:

Self Service Measures


Web based Self Service - Company intranet is one of the best method to introduce the policy
¦
amendments as the same is accessed by employees quite often.

Customized Push Communication Tactics


Mass Communication Tactics
¦

¡Policy mailers with key features of the policy


¡Policy handbooks either online or in hard copies
¡Notes inserted in pay-cheques or with salary slips
¡Announcements posted on internal company TV
¡Display on the Notice board
¡Posters and pamphlets
¡Organize quiz around the topic
Face to face communication Tactic
¦

¡Morning Meetings
¡Monthly review meetings
¡During internal trainings
¡Help desk by HR
¡Communication through Head of department
¡Policy awareness trainings
¡Policy awareness weeks

Step 7 - Continuous Enforcement of Policies


Once policies are communicated to the employees, organization has to continuously enforce them to
guarantee compliance. To do so effectively, it is suggested to place responsibility for enforcement at
various levels, including individual employees, managers, the human resources function, and
organization leadership. Some of the techniques for enforcement are:
Self Service Measures
Performance evaluation of individuals wherein one of the components could be compliance and
¦
awareness level of policies.

Implementation Guide 187


Review
¦ Checklist - A comprehensive checklist of policy areas can be provided to Managers for
assessment of the policy compliance regularly using the checklist as a guide. E.g. uniform, ID card,
attendance, leaves etc

Random Policy Audits by HR – HR team can conduct regular policy audits for critical policies and
based on the findings take corrective action.
Refresher
¦ trainings on Policies – HR should ensure periodic refreshment policy trainings are
planned for employees as the same will ensure enforcement and also increase employee
awareness.
