inhuman treatment of employment, interpersonal conflicts, job pressures, lack of freedom in work, absence of challenging work etc. Certain values were attributed to work in the past. Work has worship and people had sincerity and commitment to work. But todays employees would not believe in such values of work. He works for his salary, he works hard if the conditions of work are conducive and congenial and terms of employment are favorable to him. As such, the work norms have been changing from time to time. The term quality of work life has different meanings for different people. Some consider it industrial democracy or co determination with increased employee participation in the decision making process. For others, particularly managers and administrators, the term denotes improvement in the psychological aspects of work to improve productivity. Unions and workers interpret it as more equitable sharing of profits, job security and healthy and human working conditions. Others view it as improving social relationships at work place through autonomous work groups. Finally, others take a broader view of changing the entire organizational climate by humanizing work, individualizing organizations and changing the structural and managerial systems.

suppliers and our own mine at Australia at lme-linked prices and refined copper is sold on the same basis in the domestic and international market. Our aim is to provide high-quality refined copper by improving our operational efficiency and reducing our unit costs. We intend to further increase our operational efficiency through the lowering of power and transport costs and achieving economies of scale.
WHERE WE OPERATE
Our business includes a smelter, refinery, phosphoric acid plant, sulphuric acid plant and copper rod plant at Tuticorin in southern India and a refinery and two copper rod plants at Silvassa in western India. In addition, we own the mt. Lyell copper mine in Tasmania, Australia, which provides a small percentage of our copper concentrate requirements.
PRINCIPLE COMPONENTS
The principal inputs of our copper business are:
COPPER CONCENTRATE
Copper concentrate is the principal raw material of our copper smelter. Copper concentrate is purchased at the lme price less a Tc/Rc that we negotiate with our suppliers but which is influenced by the prevailing market rate for the Tc/Rc. In general, our long-term agreements run for a period of three to five years, and are renewable at the end of the period.
16
The quantity of supply for each contract year is fixed at the beginning of the year and terms like Tc/Rc and freight differential are negotiated each year depending upon market conditions. During fiscal 2008, we sourced approximately 65% of our copper concentrate requirements through long-term agreements. We also purchase copper concentrate on a spot basis to fill any gaps in our requirements based on production needs for quantity and quality. These deals are struck on the best possible Tc/Rc during the period and are specific for short-term supply. During fiscal 2008, we sourced approximately 24% of our copper concentrate requirements through spot purchases.
ROCK PHOSPHATE
Our rock phosphate is currently sourced from Jordan, Egypt, Nauru and Algeria pursuant to contracts renewed on an annual basis, with pricing fixed for the year. These contracts provide for minimum supply quantities with an option to increase if required.
POWER
The electricity requirements of our copper smelter and refinery at Tuticorin are primarily met by the on-site captive power plants. Our captive power plants at Tuticorin operate on low sulphur heavy stock that is procured through long-term contracts with various oil companies.
PRODUCTION PROCESS
Our Copper Business Has A Number Of Elements, Which Are Summarized In The Following Diagram And Explained In Greater Detail Below:

PHOSPHORIC ACID
Phosphoric acid is produced at our plant by chemical reaction of sulphuric acid and rock phosphate, which we import. Phosphoric acid is sold to fertilizer manufacturers and other industries.
