Project work is never the accomplishment of an individual. Rather, it is an amalgamation of the efforts,
ideas and co-operation of a number of entities. The compilation and presentation of this pustule has
bestowed me with an opportunity to show my gratitude to those subservient to it.
I am highly indebted to my Teacher Dr. (Mrs) Ashumani bhatia H.O.D & (Assistant
Professor) who has been the hallmark of this effort. Her guidelines made me comprehend the
enigmatical portion of the subject and were the sole animating force that coerced me to
meliorate my efforts without the support and guidance the project report would not have taken
shape.

Organization structure:
a) To identify the relationship between work life balance and job satisfaction among
employees.
Area to be covered in this study is Delhi NCR., And Hotels is also taken from this area only.
1.4 Methodology- For completing this research the study would be descriptive in nature.
Data collection plays a very crucial role. In research, there are different methods used to gather
information, all of which fall into two categories, i.e. primary data, and secondary data.
As the name suggests, primary data is one which is collected for the first time by the researcher
a) Primary Data
These are the data which are collected from some primary sources i.e., a source of origin where
the data generate. These are collected for the first time by an investigator or an agency for any
statistical analysis. It is the Data used in research originally obtained through the direct efforts
of the researcher. Primary data is more costly to obtain than secondary data, which is obtained
through published sources, but it is also more current and more relevant to the research project.
Also known as the first hand or raw data. The data collection is under direct control and
supervision of the investigator. The data can be collected through various methods like surveys,
enumerators, personal interviews, telephonic interviews, focus groups, case studies, etc.
Primary data can take a quantitative or statistical form, e.g. charts, graphs, diagrams and tables.
It is essential to interpret and evaluate this type of data with care. In particular, look at how the
data is organised in terms of scale. Is it organised into percentages, hundreds, thousands, etc.? Is
Primary data can also be qualitative, e.g. extracts from the conversations of those being
studied. Some researchers present their arguments virtually entirely in the words of their subject
matter. Consequently the data speaks for itself and readers are encouraged to make their own
judgements
(i) Interviews- In this method the interviewer personally meets the informants and asks
necessary questions to them regarding the subject of enquiry. Usually a set of questions or a
questionnaire is carried by him and questions are also asked according to that. The interviewer
efficiently collects the data from the informants by cross examining them. The interviewer must
be very efficient and tactful to get the accurate and relevant data from the informants.
(ii) Questionnaires - Questionnaire is a set of questions has been prepared to ask a number of
questions and collect answers from respondents relating to the research topic. A number of
questions usually in printed or electronic form are to be answered by the individuals. The forms
often have blank spaces in which the answers can be written. Sets of such forms are distributed
to groups and the answers are collected relating to research topic. A questionnaire is a series of
questions asked to individuals to obtain statistically useful information about a given topic.
b) Secondary Data
These are the data which are collected from some secondary source i.e. the source of reservation
storage where the data is collected by one person and used by other agency. These are collected
as primary data and used by other as secondary data. It is the data which are used in an
investigation, but which have been gathered originally by someone else for some other purpose
are known as secondary data. Secondary data implies second-hand information which is already
collected and recorded by any person other than the user for a purpose, not relating to the
current research problem. It is the readily available form of data collected from various sources
like censuses, government publications, internal records of the organization, reports, books,
Magazines
Books
Past data
Websites etc.
a)Techniques used:
(i) Correlation-
Correlation is a statistical technique that can show whether and how strongly pairs of variables
are related. It is the degree and type of relationship between any two or more quantities
(variables) in which they vary together over a period; for example, variation in the level of
expenditure or savings with variation in the level of income. A positive correlation exists where
the high values of one variable are associated with the high values of the other variable(s). A
'negative correlation' means association of high values of one with the low values of the
other(s). Correlation can vary from +1 to -1. Values close to +1 indicate a high-degree of
positive correlation, and values close to -1 indicate a high degree of negative correlation.
Values close to zero indicate poor correlation of either kind, and 0 indicates no correlation at all.
While correlation is useful in discovering possible connections between variables, it does not
prove or disprove any cause-and-effect (causal) relationships between them. See also regression.
(ii) Regression- Regression is a statistical technique that helps in qualifying the relationship
between the interrelated economic variables. The purpose of running the regression is to find a
formula that fits the relationship between the two variables. Then you can use that formula to
predict values for the dependent variable when only the independent variable is known.
Regression analysis is a set of statistical processes for estimating the relationships among
variables. It includes many techniques for modeling and analyzing several variables, when the
focus is on the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent
variables (or 'predictors'). More specifically, regression analysis helps one understand how the
typical value of the dependent variable (or 'criterion variable') changes when any one of the
independent variables is varied, while the other independent variables are held fixed.
Regression analysis is widely used for prediction and forecasting. Regression analysis is also
used to understand which among the independent variables are related to the dependent
variable, and to explore the forms of these relationships. Regression analysis will provide you
with an equation for a graph so that you can make predictions about your data.
b) Tools used:
based on a point and click interface. SPSS software can read and write data from other
statistical packages, databases, and spreadsheets. SPSS is most often used in social science
fields such as psychology, where statistical techniques are involved at a large scale. SPSS, as
the name suggests, is software for performing statistical procedures in the social sciences field.
It is basically used for managing data and calculating a wide variety of statistics It was
developed by SPSS Inc. and acquired by IBM in 2009. In 2014, the software was officially
renamed IBM SPSS Statistics. The software was originally meant for the social sciences, but
has become popular in other fields such as health sciences and especially in marketing, market
SPSS means “Statistical Package for the Social Sciences” and was first launched in 1968. Since
SPSS was acquired by IBM in 2009, it's officially known as IBM SPSS Statistics but most users
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
CHAPTER-2
LITERATURE REVIEW
The Second chapter of the project report provides the information about the Literature
Review which includes research findings of earlier studies with reference to the topic of
the study. This chapter also includes theoretical description of the topic of the study.
a) Harvinder soni, Yashwant singh Rawal (2014)-Conducted a study on the Hotel Industry is
known for its lengthy occupancies and long working hours. It is the industry with the most
uncertain duty roasters, strict professional environment and heavy and sudden work pressures
inducing lot of physical and mental labour. This often causes the employees to undergo major
personal life adjustments and self psychological adaptations causing permanent transitions in
personality. It ultimately affects the working. Hence, this research paper attempts to understand
quality of work life of hotel employees and its impact on their satisfaction level. It also presents
a comparative analysis of the satisfaction level of employees working in chain and non-chain
hotels in Udaipur. Chi- square test and Z –test have been applied to test the Null Hypothesis.
Suggestions for improvement of quality of work life of hotel employees have been incorporated
in the paper. The fact that employee working in the organization is also a social human being if
remembered will always make the professional work environment comfortable and flexible.
b) Milind A. Peshave1, Dr. Rajashree Gujarathi (2014)-In the recent years, the word
productivity has gained popularity in the business world and it is no longer a secret that
productivity is positively linked to the Work-Life Balance (WLB) situation of the concerned
employees. Hotel industry is characterized by provision of services round the clock. Moreover,
due to the seasonal nature of hotel business and high attrition rate in the industry, hotels face
manpower shortage. This situation forces the employees to take up the extra load by working
for long hours and sometimes their duties are stretched to 16 to 24 hours at a go. This factor has
a great negative impact on the WLB situation of the employees since they do not get sufficient
time for their personal and social commitments. They are thus trapped in scheduling conflicts
and feel the pressure of multiple roles. This study is aimed at analyzing the work-life balance
situation of the Indian hotel employees and its impact on employee productivity. In an effort to
do so, a survey in the form of a questionnaire and interviews was conducted from the sample
comprising of 200 hotel employees from the management and the associates categories to
understand their views on the subject. The responses received were represented graphically and
analyzed using basic analytical tools. The findings of his research suggest that the hotel
industry is concerned about the issue related to WLB of its employees; however, the measures
taken to improve the situation are not very effective. Employment practices pertaining to areas
of WLB are rated as second most important on the basis of its ability to enhance employee
productivity in hotels.
c) Rajesh K. Yadav, Nishant Dabhade (2014)- Study is done on Work life balance and job
satisfaction is not a problem to be solved. These are ongoing issues to be managed. Both are not
impossible, but it does take some consistent effort and 198 Volume 21 revaluation on an on
going basis. Work can dominate your life. Recognizing what is important and necessary and
striving for what is valued will make a work-life balance feasible. Utilizing management skills
will enable you to have a job satisfaction and balance between work and home life. For the
employers, Work-life balance and Job satisfaction of employees will be an important input in
designing appropriate policies for employees to address work - life balance and job satisfaction
issues. Apart from it, another significant objective is to study effects of work life balance on job
satisfaction and initiatives taken by the organizations for effective work life balance and its
relation with the job satisfaction. Standard Deviation is applied in this paper to check the
authenticity of data given by the respondents of both the sectors. Finding suggests that WLB
can be achieved by the factors responsible for job satisfaction such as: supportive colleagues,
supportive working conditions, mentally challenging work, equitable rewards and employee
d) K. Agha, F. T. Azmi, and A. Irfan (2017)- Findings of the study revealed that while work
interference with personal life and personal life interference with work had a negative
relationship with job satisfaction, work and personal life enhancement had a positive
leading to heightened levels of commitment and loyalty to the organizational objectives and
mission Thus, the findings of the present study corroborate with previous research evidence.
With increasing levels of stress, competition and insecurities in life, work-life balance issues
have become extremely important. Employees are looking for ways that will help them balance
between work and personal life effectively. Researchers have also identified that work-life
balance leads to positive organizational outcomes. Therefore, the present study seeks to explore
work-life balance and its relation to job satisfaction of employees. Thus, we can safely conclude
that work and personal life needs to be integrated and balanced by organizations through work-
e) Muhammad Shadab, Kashif Arif (2015)- In this paper, the study is being conducted to
examine and test an impact of work life balance and job satisfaction on person’s social life as
well as personal life. Furthermore, this research also shows that approximately 50% people are
there who are not satisfied with their job and due to which they cannot have proper work life
balance. Most of the people are there who want to reduce their working hours in order to have
proper work life balance in their lives. The hours which employees want to decrease in their
Working Time is due to balance the round–the–clock time in their life, so they can have the
Work Life Balance. The study further illustrates that work life balance varies as the change of
gender as well as marital status and it differs from person to person and status to status.
Findings further suggest that due to high working hours, people are dissatisfied with their jobs
because of which they cannot balance their life. They cannot give time to their personal life
which leads to dissatisfaction with their job. The result also illustrates that work life balance
varies as the change of gender as well as marital status. Whether, people are married or
unmarried, male or female, each person has his own style for leading the life. According to the
routine and practice of life, work life balance differs from each other.
analyze the relationship between employee satisfaction and work/life balance. The construct
used for this research consists of career opportunity, recognition, work tasks, payments,
benefits, superior subordinate relationship, employee satisfaction, and work/life balance. The
study was conducted on a total of 210 respondents working in IT organization. This study
makes a contribution to join two distinct research streams, namely employee satisfaction, and
work/life balance. Findings suggest that high correlation exists between work task and
employee satisfaction with a mediator variable namely work-life balance. Further research is
needed to determine and assess the employee satisfaction over a period of time by considering
the drawbacks.
g) Arunika, MMA and Kottawatta, H(2012)- The research problem addressed under this
study is to investigate what extent work life balance affects on job satisfaction among
employees in Hotel industry. However, this model is relatively small, and did not take in to
consideration other factors that might have affected the relationships between these variables.
mediating or moderating variables influence work life balance and job satisfaction. The results
of the study emphasize that there was a negative relation of work life balance with job
satisfaction and 78.9% of job satisfaction was explained by work life balance (sig0.000). Except
job autonomy, work to family interference, family to work interference, work stress, life stress
and work load were negatively correlated with job satisfaction. 82.7% of job satisfaction was
explained by the total variables of work life balance of the model according to multiple
regression analysis.
h) Dr Kathleen Farrell (2015)- The aim of this article is to examine work-life balance in the
Irish hotel sector from an employee perspective with implications for HRM. This particular
article presents part of a larger study on work flexibility and work-family balance (Farrell,
2012). The study included a survey of managers and employees. Two-hundred and forty-six
questionnaires from employees were returned which was a 22% response rate from the original
sample group. The study advances the literature on the link between work-life balance
programmes and other HRM practices such as company benefits and functional flexibility. We
see that educational reasons and time for leisure were significant drivers of work-life balance
arrangements. The research concludes that hotels need to put in place more organisational
supports such as work assistance and care supports for employees to achieve a better balance
between work and life. The study also expands the traditional conception of life” to cover
aspects of life beyond domestic life”. We see that educational reasons and time for leisure were
significant drivers of work-life balance arrangements. Hotels need to put in place more
organisational supports for employees to achieve a better balance between work and life.
i) Dizaho, Kadarko Esther (2013)- This study is a critical analysis of work life balance with
the aim of broadening existing knowledge and providing a better understanding of the position
and contributions in the field. The purpose of this study is to critically investigate on the
relationship and impact existing between work life balance and employee’s loyalty, satisfaction
and productivity with Spillover Theory as its theoretical foundation. . The results of the study
indicate that work life balance has a positive relationship with employee’s loyalty, satisfaction
and productivity. Furthermore, work life balance has the strongest impact on employees’
satisfaction. Among all the variables that make up work life balance, leaves and breaks has the
highest and strongest prediction in balancing employees work and home life. In conclusion,
future research could be conducted to identify the impact of work life balance on the
j) Dr. Kalyani Mohanty & Sasmita Mohanty(2014)- Work Life Balance has become the buzz
word in contemporary economic world as employees in industries are facing lot of pressure
from work organisation and pressure from new social structure. Though the issues and problems
are different in nature and influencing the life in different degree but, all industrial employees
are facing the problem since liberalisation, privatisation and globalisation of economy. Hotel
industry is distinguished from others in respect to provision of services round the clock. Due to
the seasonal nature of hotel business and high attrition rate in the industry, it suffers from acute
manpower shortage. Sometimes employees are compelled to take up the extra load by working
for long hours .Such work environment may impact on the WLB of the employees since they do
not get sufficient time for their personal and social commitments. Managers need to
acknowledge that there are work-life balance issues that affect the quality of work. Adopting an
employee-centric and integrative approach are the critical success factors for implementation of
guidelines in order to ensure that working hours should not affect the WLB of employees.
k) Flora F.T. Chiang ,Thomas A. Birtch , Ho Kwong Kwan(2010)- This study investigated
the relationships among job stressors, coping resources, and job stress. Data were collected from
food service employees in the hotel and catering industry. Hierarchical regression showed main
significant effects of job demands and job control and three-way (job demands job control
work-life balance practices) interactions on job stress. The results further demonstrated that
high job demands coupled with low job control and the availability of work-life balance
practices resulted in a higher level of stress. Implications for Karasek’s job demand–control
model, managerial practice and future research are provided. While job control is considered an
enabling psychosocial resource that can potentially alleviate job stress, work-life balance
practices are also believed to moderate the relationship between job demands and stress
outcomes.
l) Simon Chak-keung Wong, Annie Ko(2009)- This study explores hotel employees’
questionnaires were used to collect the data. Factor analysis discovered seven factors: enough
time-off from work; workplace support on work–life balance; allegiance to work; flexibility on
work schedule; life orientation; voluntary reduction of contracted hours to cater for personal
needs; and upkeep the work and career—the determinants perceived by employees to attain
and integrative approach are the critical success factors for implementation of a work–life
balance program. ons. This study purports to explore and gain a better understanding of the
solution to create a healthy and productive workforce as well as help their hotel to become an
employer of choice to attract the best talent. The contribution of this study is to explore the
perception of work–life balance issues among hotel employees in the Hong Kong hotel industry.
By understanding their perspectives, hotel management can derive ways to improve staff
productivity.
m) Margaret Deery and Leo Jago(2008) -This paper addresses the key issues surrounding the
debate over work-life balance. It provides an overview of current thinking in the general work
environment, with specific focus on the issue within the hotel industry. This paper presents the
literature on work-life balance issues and presents a framework to examine ways to overcome
the current lack of work-life balance. Purposes of this paper and future such studies is that there
are strategies that can impact positively on work-life balance. These include a greater use of
flexible work practices such as flexible scheduling, working from home and having access to
both paid and unpaid leave. Job sharing is also a strategy that assist as does a sound and clear
leadership style. This study presents a model that may assist in a more thorough examination of
the related issues as well as some strategies for implementation and reduction of the negative
n) Elizabeth Roberts, David Williamson and Carmen Cox(2012) - The purpose of this study
was to identify international human resource management best practice with regard to work/life
balance policies and practices within an hotel . The methodology included an analysis of
qualitative data gleaned from exit interviews with 166 hotel employees, structured interviews
with key management informants, and content analysis of written human resource policies
desire to balance their paid work with other activities that are important to them. A through
review of the literature surrounding work/life balance issues will be included in the
presentation, but the most common forms of work/life balance employment options include
flexi-time; time off in lieu; self-rostering; job-sharing; working from home; staggered hours;
o) Anjali Khanna (2014)- The present study aims at understanding the Work Life Balance in
Hospitality Industry. It is an industry that is labor intensive and requires highly skilled
manpower to serve the guests in best possible manner. It is an industry where the service
providers work 24 X 7 and working hours for the employees may extend upto 12 hours or even
more. Thus, it becomes difficult for the employees to maintain a balance between work and
personal life. Thus the present study aims at providing a conceptual framework of work life
balance in hospitality industry. The study also presents the relation of work life balance with
other major aspects of human resources i.e job satisfaction, job stress and employee turnover.
Employees find themselves juggling with the work pressures of long commutes, raising
children, and managing their households, No definite conclusions can be drawn with respect to
the gender differences in Work Life Balance. However, on the basis of the studies which
reported gender differences, it can be concluded that women experience more imbalance, Job
related variables i.e. task autonomy and work schedule flexibility have been found to be
positively related to Work Life Balance, Higher the job stress, higher is the employee turnover,
Flexible scheduling has been found to be positively related to Job Satisfaction, Stress and
Employee Turnover.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
The procedure adopted for conducting the research requires a lot of attention as it has
direct bearing on the accuracy, reliability and adequacy of results obtained. It is due to this
reason that research methodology, which we used at the time of conducting; the research
needs to be elaborated upon. It provides the researcher criteria by which we can decide
which techniques and procedures will be applicable to a given problem. At the same times
it helps the researcher to clearly state what course of action he selects at the time of
conducting the research and why he select then so that they can be evaluated by others
also.
RESEARCH PROBLEM: -
The first step while conducting a research is to carefully define the research problem. The
present study has been undertaken to analyze the various sales promotion techniques of
Vita Milk Plant & its various competitors in this area. Its aim is to find out the sales
promotion techniques should be added or improved, so that company can improve its
strategies for increasing its sales in future.
RESEARCH DESIGN: -
A research design is the arrangement of conditions for collection and analysis of data in a
manner that aims to combine relevance to the research purpose with economy in procedure. In
fact research is the conceptual structure within which research is conducted; it constitutes the
blueprint for the collection, measurement and analysis of data.
In this study Empirical research studies is used because Empirical research relies on experience
or observation alone, often without due regard for system and theory. It is data-based research,
coming up with conclusions which are capable of being verified by observation or experiment..
and in this report the empirical research design is used to find out the effect of promotional
techniques in VITA .
The design in such studies must focus attention on the following or process in empirical research
design is as follows
SAMPLE DESIGN: -
A sample design is a definite plan determined before any data are actually collected for obtaining
a sample from a given population. The amount of research work is always limited by shortage of
time and resources. Due to these limitations information should be such that it may be
representative of entire universe. So only alternative is of sampling.
DATA COLLECTION:-
In dealing with any real life problem it is often found that data at hand are inadequate, and hence,
it becomes necessary to collect data that are appropriate. The task of data collection begins after
a research problem has been defined and research design chalked out. While deciding about the
method of data collection to be used for the study, the researcher should keep in mind two types
of data viz., primary and secondary
Source of Data:-
Primary Data
Secondary Data
Primary Data:-
Primary data is that data which is collected by the researcher with his own sources and efforts
which are never collected before by any other person, like data is collected by questioner
interview etc.
Secondary Data:-
Secondary data is that data which is collected by the researcher from the available resources like
from web-site, Margins, Books of Company etc.
o Observation method
o Interview method
o Questionnaire method
o Schedule method
Structured interview involves the usage of questionnaire to collect the desired data from
those who have the same information. Unstructured interviewing on the other hand
involves research/depth interviewing. In observation, no questionnaire is used, but the
situation of interest is watched carefully to record the relevant information. In the present
study, I will use observation and questionnaire method that is primary in nature.
In the present study Primary data is collected through Questionnaire cum personal interview met
OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY
Main Objective:-
The main objective of the study is to assess the expectation and satisfaction level of
employees with regard to existing development programs for human resources.
Sub Objective:-
i. To find out the extent to which the training has fulfilled the objectives.

iii. To check the development level of employees with regard to providing various
vii. To collect the information about employee’s development by regular feedback from
the originations.
SCOPE OF THE STUDY
1. This study will tell us about the knowledge level of the employees in the
organization.
2. This study focus on the motivation development and organizational climate development
which provide by the organization to its employees.
3. This study will tell us about the better utilization of human resources.
4. This study focus on the various methods and techniques of training and development

LIMITATION OF STUDY
On-site observation and direct interviews was a tedious job and took a lot of time.
The results may not be very accurate, as I did not interact with each and every employee.
The sample size specifically of staff has been small. Perhaps a large one could have
brought more accurate results.
I could not get information, as I was not given the proper time for response.

Reliability
Research reliability is the degree to which research method produces stable and consistent
results.
Cronbach Alpha is a reliability test conducted within SPSS in order to measure the internal
consistency i.e. reliability of the measuring instrument (Questionnaire). It is most commonly
used when the questionnaire is developed using multiple likert scale statements and therefore to
determine if the scale is reliable or not.

FINDINGS OF THE STUDY
HRD is the emerging thing of today. Every organization whether large or small can not be left untouched
by the HRD. HRD has become a movement in country. Ten years ago hardly any organization had HRD
departments or talked about it. Today it is difficult to find organizations that employ large number of
people that do not talk about HRD.
In spite of this popularization of HRD in the last few years, success experience of HRD is limited to a few
organizations and many others are yet to translate their goodwill into action. But even today,
Organizations in the service sector continue to neglect it.
But HR is much more progressing in the manufacturing sector. There are a lot many new concepts which
are emerging in this field like Stress management, Self Development, Achievement Motivation,
Emotional Competence, Organizational Intelligence etc. If these companies would not invest in the
people they would not have grown and expanded.
Now-a-days organizations and their top management have recognized that HRD cannot be limited to a
few employees in coverage. It is also recognized that HRD is too important to be left informal processes
to take care of and that it should be a well planned activity.
In nutshell, we can say that the service sector has a lot to learn from industry.
1. Most of the employees of an origination consider HRD a training center / development center.
2 . Most of the employees think that need of the HR department is managing manpower.
On the basis of the research conducted, here are a few of the recommendations:
Separate budget allocations should be made for HRD department in the organizations.
New competencies to handle the HRD function should be developed among these
institutions/departments.
Organizations should explore the use of various mechanisms in developing service and managerial
competencies of their staff.

To make the theoretical contribution of this research easier to follow, the findings will be
a) It is observed that Out of 100 respondents 68% were male and 32% were females which
b) It is observed that in Hotels a wide number of respondents belong to age group 21-30. It
means that more number of respondents belongs to the Fresher’s and young people who have
started their jobs and learning the way things are done in this industry.
c) It is also noticed that most of the employees or the staff in the Hotels are able to balance the
a) The study was conducted by taking two hotels , so this is a limitations & we cannot
generalize.
b) In some cases, few respondents were not sure about their answer and opinion. The reason for
this may be questions that do not apply or effect that particular employee, or perhaps, the
c) The respondents were mostly of young generation, so there were less experienced people. So
a) The research has been conducted only on 100 respondents, so there is a scope for future
b) The Hotels were also limited to 2 only so there is a scope of taking more hotels for increase
in number of respondents.
