Introduction
INTRODUCTION
Human resources play a very crucial role in the development process of an economy. The economic development of both developed as The organization as developing countries are closely inter-woven with the level of development of human resources. It is said that all development comes from the human mind. The quantity and quality of human contribution, it should be recognized, are entirely dependent upon the human body and mind.The organization rich it may be in the possession of the physical resources, cannot achieve any prosperity unless it is the organization with rich human resources. The human resources are, therefore, to be developed and properly organized in order to bring about economic development in and country. It should be noted that human resources are responsible for the transformation of traditional economies into modern industrial economies and also for the existing levels of economic development in different countries. The phenomenal growth achieved by a country like Japan, poor in its natural resources, can be attributed to its rich human resources. In essence, the difference in the level of economic development of the countries is largely a reflection of the differences in quality of their human resources. The key elements in this proposition are that the values, attitudes, general orientation and quality of the people of a country determine its economic development. At the micro level, human resource is the most valuable asset in the organization and not the money or physical equipment. It has, in fact, come to be recognized as an important economic resource. Therefore, human resources are to be developed, nurtured and properly organized in order to bring about prosperity in any country.
Human resource is the total knowledge, skills creative abilities, talents and aptitudes of an organizations work force, as The organization has the values, attitudes and beliefs of the individuals involved. Human factor in organizations also gained significance due to the fact that most of the problems in the modern organizations are human and social in nature rather than physical, technical or economic. It is people who can make a difference and who can have an ever lasting impact on the survival and functioning of organization. Peters and Waterman in their widely acclaimed research work, In search of Excellence, have found Productivity of People as one of the important attributes that characterized the most excellent and innovative companies in United States. As pointed out by the noted psychologist, Mc Gregor, much management would agree that the effectiveness of their organizations would be at least doubled if they could discover how to tap the unrealized potential present in their human resources. As such, successful companies are the ones who achieve extraordinary results through ordinary people. The human resources account for a large part of national output and there existed wide scope for enhancing productivity through their proper development. The physical resources, viz., material, machine, money and energy are all important in achieving the productivity of the Organization, but they will not give results unless the human resources are applied to them. In addition to providing value to the physical resources, the human resources provide a dynamic character to the economy and to the individual enterprise. The human resources are also significant from psychological stand point. They require a particular psychological environment to work. The essence of
psychological environment is motivation which provides dynamism to these unique resources. The individual and organizational goals are sought to be achieved through effective utilization of human resources. It may be noted that an organizations performance and resulting productivity are directly proportional to the quantity and quality of its human resources. Any organization that exists to produce goods and services has good chance to survive and prosper if it consists of Right People. This is true for all organizations and similarly, people also need organizations for their development. Thus, the development of human resources plays a very significant role in developing of the workforce of the organization in particular and economy in general. The distinction between the organization when all other resources and human resources is that, only the human resource, which appreciates with time whereas all other resources undergo the process of depreciation. All the firms buy the same material and machines but it is the people in the firm who build the organization and make a difference in the final product. A machines maximum value reaches the day it starts producing. Man never reaches an ultimate value throughout the lifetime at work, but is able to change grow and enrich his value. Success of an organization mainly depends on the quality of its manpoThe organizationr and its performance.
Each company has a different set of circumstances, and so develops an individual set of human resource policies.
PURPOSES:
HR policies allow an organization to be clear with employees on:
y y y y y y
The nature of the organization What they should expect from the organization What the organization expects of them How policies and procedures work What is acceptable and unacceptable behavior The consequences of unacceptable behavior
The establishment of policies can help an organization demonstrate, both internally and externally, that it meets requirements for diversity, ethics and training as The organization as its commitments in relation to regulation and corporate governance. For example, in order to dismiss an employee in accordance with employment law requirements, amongst other considerations, it will normally be necessary to meet provisions within employment contracts and collective bargaining agreements. The establishment of an HR Policy which sets out obligations, standards of behavior and document displinary procedures, is now the standard approach to meeting these obligations.
HR policies can also be very effective at supporting and building the desired organizational culture. For example recruitment and retention policies might outline the
way the organization values a flexible workforce, compensation policies might support this by offering a 48/52 pay option where employees can take an extra four The organizationeks holidays per year and receive less pay across the year.
Implied in the above goals are the goals of developing superior-subordinate relationships, team development, inter-team collaboration and organizational health. All these contribute a lot for the development of the workforce in the organization and also help in enhancing of individual competencies, two person relationships, team spirit and organizational health, these all make the organization a very better place to work in. Thus, the present study has been made to identify the role of private sector organizations in developing a healthy HR Policies in their organizations for the better cause of both the organization and also the economy.
Objectives:
To know the profile of the selected organization (Hindustan Zinc Limited). To observe the HR policies in Hindustan Zinc Limited. To study the various elements of the Human Resource Management viz.,HR policies in systematically.
To summarize and to make the suggestions for further improvements in the HR policies system of the organization.
pertaining to Coromandel International Limited has been obtained from the following two sources. Primary Data: This is done by personal discussion with various officials in employee relation department and human resource development. Questionnaires The organizationre prepared by keeping in view of the objective of the study. The first one is being management questionnaire covering HR Policies for executives . The second one was the canvass among the sampled employers to find out their opinion on different policies being provided to them. The questionnaire was distributed to 150 and the response The organizationre limited to 100. The study is confined to a sample of 100 only. Secondary Data: The secondary data has been collected from Annual Reports of HZL Vizag various reports available in the Organization, Books,Journals,Newsletters,Magazines,etc..The organizations are verified. For the achievement of objectives of the study required data has been collected from both the primary and secondary sources. A questionnaire has been prepared with different questions to require the socio-economic status and to measure employee job satisfaction. Then a structured questionnaire has been prepared and administrated among employees in the organization.
Limitations:
Study has been done during working hours.Hence it was inconvenient to disturb the workmen with questionnaire at all times. All employees & management representatives The organizationre not considered due to time limit. Hence,a sample of limited percent of employees has taken up for the purpose of the study. Data collection consumed a lot of time. Last but not least time was a major constraint. It is very difficult to cover all department under the study within 45 days.

constant innovation, extensive R&D, technological up gradation and so much more HZL has come a long way and grown in to a multi-unit and multi-product company.
Overview:
Of the loThe organizationst cost producers of Lead and Zinc in the world due to the countries low labour India is a major Zinc producer. Lead production equaled approximately 82,000 tpa in 2004, mostly from secondary sources. HoThe organizationver, the main constraint in Lead production in the country is the lack of lead ore reserves, which necessitates large scale imports and re-cycling. The counters extractable lead and zinc reserves are estimated at 390 Mt of ore grading at 8.2% Zinc and 2.2%Lead. Most of these deposits are located in Rajasthan and are developed by Hindustan Zinc Ltd., the countrys largest Zinc producer. The company presently operates four
mines, four smelters spread over the states of Rajasthan, Andhra Pradesh, Bihar and Orissa. Hindustan Zinc is rated as one costs and high grades. Indian lead has two units, one in Calcutta and the other at Thane, near Mumbai, each with a capacity of 12,000 t/y. Both units treat imported concentrates. Binani I ndustries possess a 25,000 t/y lead recycling plant (from batteries) at Wada in Maharashtra under the name of Binani Lead. Vedanta Resources plc, a London Stock Exchange listed and FTSE 100 metals and mining global major has interests in Aluminum, Copper, and Zinc, Gold, Silver and lead with operations in India, Australia, Armenia and Africa. With a talent pool of about 25,000 employees globally, the group has a clear focus on achieving and sustaining global leadership in the non-ferrous metals business. Hindustan Zinc Limited pioneer in production of primary Zinc and leader in the country is a multi location company having mining and smelting units location in Rajasthan and Andhra Pradesh. Three mines and two smelters are located in Rajasthan and one smelter in vizag. Currently The organization are 6th largest Zinc producer in the world and have a 75 market share in primary Zinc in India. The organization have successfully completed our phase-I expansion of mines and smelters in record time. The organization have already taken phase-II expansion, which will place us among the best Zinc in the world. In keeping our desire to have world class practice The organization are looking for brilliant and dynamic professional in chemical or Metallurgy to work in any one of our six locations. Sterlite has a controlling interest in Hindustan Zinc Limited and increased its interest further in November 2003 when it 18capacity from the Government another
18.92% stake, taking its total holdings in HZL to 64.92%. Sterlite has large capitalintensive plans for the expansion of HZLs lead-zinc melting complex at Chaderiya in Rajasthan and proposes to invest around US $ 400 million, using part of the proceeds of Vedanta Resources initial public offering in London. Zinc smelter capacity is being increased from 220,000 t/y to 390,000 t/y. As part of the project, HZL is building a US $ 86.7 million 154 MW captive poThe organizationr plant to meet the energy requirements of the complex. Construction is being undertaken by state-owned Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd. The expansion of the complex is scheduled for Capacity19n by March 2005. Domestic demand for Lead is close to 170,000 t/y. The total primary smelting capacity in the country is 89,000 t/y, consisting of 65,000 t/y (HZL) and 24,000 t/y (Indian Lead Ltd,). HZLs smelters are located at chanderiay in Rajasthan (capacity: 35,000 t/y), Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh (22,000 t/y) and Tundoo in Bihar (8,000 t/y). The Tundoo smelter which also produces silver has been fairing very poorly and has been closed. The smelter at Visakhapatnam has also been closed for some time as a result of environmental concerns by the Andhra Pradesh Government. Visakhapatnam was a loss- making unit and the costs of installing environment-friendly equipment would be prohibitive. HZL is in the midst of raising its annual Lead-Smelting capacity by 50,000 tonnes.

INTRODUCTION:
Hindustan Zinc Ltd was incorporated in January, 1966 as Public Sector Undertaking after the takeover of erstwhile Metal Corporation of India (MCI) to develop mining and melting capacities substantially to meet the domestic demand of Zinc and Lead metals. HZL through its innovative operations, forward planning, team work, research and development, technological up gradation had taken the country to the high level of self-sufficiency in Zinc. Hindustan Zinc Ltd was dis-invested in the year 2002 and M/s Sterlite Group has taken over the management control. HZL is proud inheritor of World's ancient Zinc mining and distillation sites at Zawar Mines near Udaipur. The remains of ancient mines and smelting furnaces located in the vicinity of today's mining centers reflect man's endeavor to recover and utilise these metals. Recognising this Zinc extraction as the oldest in the world, American Society of Metals declared it as the International Historical landmark by placing plaque at Zawar in Rajasthan State on 2nd Feb, 1989. HZL had
broad-based operations. Its spectrum of activities include exploration, mining, ore processing to smelting, refining of Lead, Zinc, Cadmium, Copper and other precious metals. HZL is presently operating 3 mining units and 3 smelting units spread all over the country.
To bridge the gap between demand and production, HZL had commissioned Zinc Smelter at Vizag in 1977 with following installed capacities:
Subsequently, performance improvement projects and debottlenecking exercises were undertaken during the year 2002 to 2004. These have resulted in substantial enhancement of capacity as given below.

APPLICATIONS OF ZINC NAND LEAD PRINCIPALE BY PRODUCTS: ZINC: The main uses of Zinc are in galvanizing for protection of steel against
corrosion, alloy marking (Brass, Bronze and Bearing metals) dry cell batteries, and die casting for automobiles parts, business machines and toys. Oxide and sulfides of Zinc dust is used for many chemical processes zinc sulfite is used as important micronutrients for soils.
LEAD: The main uses of lead are for storage batteries in transportation, ammunition in
defense, lead protection for cables, chemical equipment, pigments and paints. Lead is also use in bearing and soldering alloys type metals, fusible alloys, in sound and vibrations, shield against X ray and nuclear radiation and as ballast The organizationight.
SILVER: Electric contract fuses and in bearing alloy. Silver is extensively use for
JeThe organizationlry and coinage.
cooking, dry cells for torches, radio transistors, tape recorders, calculators, watchers many other automobiles, GI sheets, pipes, pesticides, fertilizers and many other things which come into use in our daily life have zinc or Lead component or their alloys along with other metals.
The SO2 and dust laden gases are freed from calcine and cooled by passing through Gas Cleaning System, so that the gases leaving the roaster plant are suitable for production of Sulphuric Acid. The equipment used in gas cleaning section serve dual purpose of process requirement as The organizationll as pollution control
Acid Plant:
The sulphuric acid plant with a capacity 200 TPD is based on the conventional process. The roaster gases with about 6-7 % SO2, from gas cleaning are dried in the Drying toThe organizationr and passed through converter where SO2 is converted to SO3. The converter outlet gas is absorbed in 98 % sulphuric acid in Absorption toThe organizationr to produce sulphuric acid with a concentration of 98.5 %. The reactions involved are 2 SO2 + O2 SO3 + H2O = 2 SO3 = H2SO4
The calcine from roaster is collected by conveyor system and conveyed to calcine silo for storage. The exhaust gases from this plant are further scrubbed in Tail Gas Treatment Plant for controlling the sulphur dioxide emissions within stipulated norms
Zinc Sulphite slurry is decomposed in the decomposition section, the sulphur dioxide generated in decomposition is again recycled to sulphuric acid plant
for further conversion into sulphuric acid, while zinc sulphate slurry is sent to the Leaching plant. The unique process, tailor made for Zinc Smelters ensures very low SO2 emissions and produces Zinc sulphate solution which is recycled into process.
B. Leaching Plant:
Calcine from silo is conveyed through pneumatic conveying system into silos in leaching plant. The Leaching section consists of the following steps In Neutral leaching stage, calcine is leached with spent electrolyte from electrolysis plant. The Zinc Oxide in calcine is readily leached but zinc ferrite remains in the solid. Slurry from this stage is thickened and clear solution is pumped for purification wherein copper & cadmium is removed by addition of Zinc dust. After filtration, Cu-Cd cake is treated in Cadmium Plant. The filtrate is pumped through spiral heat exchanger to hot purification tanks. Solution is heated 800C and purified by addition of Zinc dust and Potassium Antimony Tartrate in this stage impurity like Cadmium, Cobalt, Nickel etc are removed. Purified solution is heated in polishing stage and filtered to remove any traces of impurities. Purified zinc sulphate solution is sent to Electrolysis Plant.
acid leaching is treated for jarosite precipitation with ammonium sulphate for precipitation of Jarosite. The clear solution from Jarosite stage is further treated in Neutralization section and recycled in Neutral Leaching Stage. Jarosite cake filtered in two stages in Belt Filters. The jarosite cake from filters after repulping and the
neutralization with lime slurry is pumped to jarosite pond for its storage.
temperature of the kiln is maintained at 1200 13000C in the reaction zone. The material breaks into Zn and subsequently converted to Zn O and is carried away by the gases as per the reaction given under. 3 Zn O Fe2O3 + C --- 2 Fe3O4 + 3 Zn O + CO Fe3O4 ---- Fe2O3 + Fe O The stream of hot gases carries away the ZnO along with it and is cooled in tubular coolers and is cleaned of the dust in Bag Filters. The dust from the tubular coolers and the Bag filter are conveyed to Raw Oxide Bin by pneumatic system. Raw oxide is further treated in the Clinker Kiln to remove the lead, chlorine and fluorine and sinter the charge in order to make it suitable for treatment in leaching. The product of the kiln is sintered granules called sintered zinc oxide or clinker.
Zinc Electrolysis:
Electrolysis plant has 460 electrolytic cells wherein acidic zinc sulphate electrolyte is electrolyzed by passing D.C. current. In cells aluminum sheet is the
cathode and high silver lead alloy is anode. The Zinc gets deposited on the aluminum cathode and is stripped after 24 hours of deposition. The Zinc Cathodes thus obtained are shifted to Melting Section. The Zinc content in the electrolyte gets depleted and Zinc content is maintained by mixing neutral zinc sulphate solution supplied by leaching plant.
Melting:
The Zinc cathodes are charged into Induction furnaces and the molten metal free of dross is pumped to an Auto casting machine for casting into Zinc slabs of 26 kgs. The dross farmed is removed from time to time and is sent to Roaster plant for recycling. Ammonium chloride is used as flux to prevent excess formation of dross. The ingot produced conforms to ISI specifications (IS No.209-1992).

Human resources play a very crucial role in the development process of an economy. The economic development of both developed as well as developing countries are closely inter-woven with the level of development of human resources. It is said that all development comes from the human mind. The quantity and quality of human contribution, it should be recognized, are entirely dependent upon the human body and mind. A nation, however rich it may be in the possession of the physical resources, cannot achieve any prosperity unless it is endowed with rich human resources. The human resources are, therefore, to be developed and properly organized in order to bring about economic development in and country. Adam Curle pointed out that countries are underdeveloped because most of their people are under developed. The individual and organizational goals are sought to be achieved through effective utilization of human resources. It may be noted that an organizations performance and resulting productivity are directly proportional to the quantity and quality of its human resources. Any organization that exists to produce goods and services has good chance to survive and
prosper if it consists of Right People. This is true for all organizations and similarly, people also need organizations for their development. Thus, the development of human resources plays a very significant role in developing of the workforce of the organization in particular and economy in general.
ANALYSIS OF THE DATA After the preparation of the questionnaire, a pilot study has been conducted by taking 100 employees as sample who is working at various levels of the organization. From the observations from it, the necessary changes has been made and a structured questionnaire has been prepared and administered among the employees to find out their perceptions and reactions on the training and development performance appraisals, transfers, working conditions, welfare measures employee development activities, housing facilities, statutory benefits , human resources development programs.

SUGGESTIONS After analyzing the responses of the employees and with the knowledge of my observation and personal encounters with various employees the following suggestions has been made to the organization. I hope, they might help in promoting much more better HR policies in the organization. The organization should further improve its efficiency through motivation of its employees and by imparting training to them in the latest and more innovative techniques. Employees participation in management should be encouraged and should improve the working conditions. Teach the training with video programmers and flowcharts diagram in case of machinery side training for illiterate workers easy to understand Every organization must have a HR centre and each and every employee should be involved in HR policies. Employees has to discuss the requirement openly in meetings. Group meetings are required instead of issuing orders to the subordinates, for maintaining of good inter personal relations among superiors ,subordinates and employees. Some of the employees are perceiving that there is a lack of proper recognition and appreciation of their performance .
