CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction

Commercial vehicle dealers play a vital role in the transportation industry, serving as
essential intermediaries between manufacturers and businesses in need of reliable vehicles for
their operations. These dealerships offer a wide range of commercial vehicles, including
trucks, vans, buses, and specialized vehicles tailored to various industries. In a commercial
vehicle dealer company, the Human Resources (HR) department plays a pivotal role in
ensuring the smooth functioning of various aspects related to personnel management and
organizational development. Firstly, HR is responsible for recruitment and talent acquisition,
identifying and attracting skilled professionals to fill positions ranging from sales
representatives to service technicians. This involves developing job descriptions, sourcing
candidates through various channels, conducting interviews, and facilitating the hiring
process in alignment with the company's staffing needs and objectives.

HR is instrumental in implementing and administering employee benefits and compensation

programs, ensuring that employees are fairly compensated for their contributions and
provided with competitive benefits packages. This includes managing payroll, administering
health insurance, retirement plans, and other perks, and addressing employee inquiries and
concerns related to compensation and benefits. HR also plays a crucial role in performance
management and employee development, facilitating regular performance evaluations,
providing feedback and coaching to employees, and identifying opportunities for training and
career advancement. HR also plays a key role in employee engagement initiatives, organizing
team-building activities, recognition programs, and other events to boost morale, motivation,
and job satisfaction among employees.Overall, the HR department in a commercial vehicle
dealer company serves as a strategic partner, providing support, guidance, and expertise in all
areas related to human capital management, contributing to the company's growth, and
sustainability in a competitive market.

Meaning of employee engagement

Employee engagement is the level of commitment and involvement an employee has towards
their organization and its values. An engaged employee is aware of business context, and
works with colleagues to improve performance within the job for the benefit of the
1
organization. It is a positive attitude held by the employees towards the organization and its
values. The paper focuses on how employee engagement is an antecedent of job involvement
and what should company do to make the employees engaged.

The ability of the organization to attain its goals largely depends upon the effectiveness of its
Employee Engagement Program. Therefore it deserves great planning and care to formulate
and implement Employee Engagement strategies.

A detailed and exhaustive exploratory research is also done over the net through relevant
websites to delineate appropriate Employee Engagement methods to understand the current
trends in the Industry and to know the company profile. A questionnaire was undertaken as a
tool for the extraction of the effectiveness of the Employee Engagement. 50 candidates had
answered the questionnaires.

The answered questionnaires were, then analyzed. To define in a capsule, it was more of an
observation to find the effectiveness of Employee Engagement.

Importance of engagement

Engagement is a very important factor in the success of each organization. Many advantages
emerge from engaged employees: first, they are loyal to their company and they are
perceived as a reference for the other workers. Second, they are always motivated; so they
can offer better productivity, and here we can make a link between employee engagement
and profitability. Third, and in addition to the highly productive participation, the
engagement also increases the levels of emotions and feelings of each worker which can
affect positively the customer service and the customer satisfaction. Fourth, engaged
employee is always passionate about his work and duties which will facilitate his way to
reach the company's goals.

Benefits of employee engagement

Before we delve into the many benefits that high employee engagement provides, we need to
understand the concept. There is no agreed-upon standard definition of ‘employee
engagement’ out there. Several practitioners and researchers have developed their own
working definitions, which can lead to some confusion.

The Real Benefits of Employee Engagement

2
1) Employee Satisfaction: Research indicates that if employees are engaged with the
company their job satisfaction levels increase. Employees that are engaged and satisfied are
very invested in the success of the business and have a high level of commitment and loyalty.

2) Productivity: Engaged employees are often top performers, those committed to ‘going the
extra mile’ to achieve business success. As an employee becomes more engaged their
absenteeism lowers and their motivation increases leading to increased productivity. What
this means is that the more engaged the employee is the more efficient and driven to succeed
they become.

3) Retention & Recruitment: Retaining good employees is key to the success of every
business. Employees who are engaged significantly lower the risk of turnover for the
company. As engaged employees are more invested in the success of the company they also
become more loyal.

4) Innovation: There is a close relationship between innovation and employee engagement.

Engaged employees perform at a higher level and bring passion and interest to their job,
which often leads to innovation in the workplace. As highly engaged employees feel they
have a real stake in the organization, they strive to efficiently create new products, services
and processes.

5) Profitability: Companies with more engaged employees tend to have higher profitability
rates. When employees are engaged they become more productive and efficient, positively
affecting the company’s bottom line. The equation makes perfect sense. The more engaged
your employees are the more efficient and productive they become, lowering operating costs
and increasing the profit margin.

Some ways to measure employee engagement

Employee engagement is the level of commitment employees have toward achieving the
goals and objectives of a company. It influences the success of a company because actively
engaged employees tend to be more productive and more focused on growing sales and
satisfying customers. Employee engagement also cultivates a culture of teamwork in an
organization. More employers are measuring employee engagement as a way of gauging the
overall success of the company.

3
Personnel Meetings

Face-to-face meetings are a simple and direct method of measuring employee engagement
because they give workers a chance to discuss their levels of motivation and what can be
done to improve them. Suitable topics of discussion include how the employee views his
contributions, his value to the business.

Observation

A manager or business owner who takes time to walk around the premises and watch his
employees’ interactions in the course of their day-to-day duties can easily determine their
levels of engagement. For example, actively engaged employees take a genuine interest in
their jobs.

Performance Appraisals

Regular performance appraisals are useful methods of determining how engaged employees
are in their jobs and giving them useful feedback. Managers can learn about workplace
concerns in the process of evaluating work performance. For example, if an employee's
performance has dropped off compared with previous years, managers should have the
employee explain why.

Customer Satisfaction

There is a direct correlation between customer satisfaction and employee engagement.

Customers are more likely to buy a product or service when an employee shows enthusiasm
for it. Sales tend to increase when employees are engaged in their work. A company can also
get a sense of employee engagement by having customers provide feedback on their levels of
service.

Inspection Opportunities

Another way to measure employee engagement is to let employees put their skills and ideas
into action. Seeing how employees apply their skills on certain projects can provide valuable
insights into their level of engagement.

4
Cost of Disengaged Workforce

This belief of the disengaged employee creates a negative spiral that affects his work, co-
workers, customers, productivity, and eventually both happiness of employee and company
performance. Some effects are illustrated below:

1. Effect on Work - The disengaged employee tries to evade work, struggles to meet
deadlines and is reluctant to accept additional responsibility.

2. Effect on Co-Workers - The negativity of a disengaged employee, demonstrated either

through raves and rants or complete withdrawal from participation, affects the team morale.

3. Effects on Productivity - Disengaged employees seldom push themselves to meet

organizational goals let alone contribute to innovative practices at workplace.

1.2 Industry Profile

Auto Mobile Industry

The Automobile industry in India is the seventh largest in the world with an annual
production of over 2.6 million units. India emerged as Asia's fourth largest exporter of
automobiles, behind Japan, South Korea and Thailand. By 2050, the country is expected to
top the world in car volumes with approximately 611 million vehicles on the nation's roads.

Following economic liberalization in India in 1991, the Indian automotive industry has
demonstrated sustained growth as a result of increased competitiveness and relaxed
restrictions. Several Indian automobile manufacturers such as Tata Motors, Maruti Suzuki
and Mahindra and Mahindra, expanded their domestic and international operations. India's
robust economic growth led to the further expansion of its domestic automobile market which
attracted significant India-specific investment by multinational automobile manufacturers.

Embryonic automotive industry emerged in India in the 1940s. Following the

independence, in 1947, the Government of India and the private sector launched efforts to
create an automotive component manufacturing industry to supply to the automobile industry.
Japanese manufacturers entered the Indian market ultimately leading to the establishment of
Maruti Udyog. A number of foreign firms initiated joint ventures with Indian companies.

5
 In the 1980s, a number of Japanese manufacturers launched joint-ventures for building
motorcycles and light commercial-vehicles. It was at this time that the Indian government
chose Suzuki for its joint-venture to manufacture small cars. Following the economic
liberalization in 1991 and the gradual weakening of the license raj, a number of Indian and
multi-national car companies launched operations. Since then, automotive component and
automobile manufacturing growth has accelerated to meet domestic and export demands.

Indian auto industry records highest-ever sales in April, 2023 and recorded a 12.9%
growth. The Indian auto industry performed well in April, 2023, showing considerable
growth in all major segments. A total of 1,957,599 passenger vehicles, three-wheelers, two-
wheelers, and quadricycles were produced in the month.

 CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF LITERATURE

Arnaz Kaizad Wadia (2023) in the paper, “Growing importance of employee engagement
for reducing employee turnover and enhancing business performance” stated that
employee engagement is a powerful word that can be used to describe how employees feel
about their work. These days, and especially during COVID times, employee engagement has
become one of the most important metrics for the organization. As Jack and Suzy Welch
suggest: "Employee engagement first. No company, small or large, can win in the long run
without energized employees who believe in the mission and understand how to achieve it."
Many studies show how increasing employees' levels of commitment can have a big impact
on company success; not only does it lead them away from high turnover rates, but it also
increases productivity because they're more likely than ever before to be engaged in what
matters: making money. Therefore, employee engagement has the power to make or break a
business.

Nabin Prajapati (2022) in the paper, “ Factors Influencing Employee Engagement and its
Impact on Organizational Performance” states that the purpose of this study is to identify
the factors affecting the employee engagement as well as to examine the effect of employee
engagement on organizational performance. The result shows that identified factors like
career development, compensation, work environment, team and co-worker relationship,
organizational policies and workplace wellbeing have positive and significant impact on
employee engagement whereas Leadership has negative and insignificant impact on
employee engagement. Further, the result also shows employee engagement had significant
impact on organizational performance.

Nurul Imani Kurniawati (2022) in the paper,” The Influence of Employee Engagement on
Organizational Performance: A Systematic Review” the authors used a systematic
literature review to understand the factors affecting organizational performance and employee
engagement from some literature published in databases of well-known journals such as
Emerald, Wiley, Scopus, SAGE, and Google Scholar from 2010 to 2022. The study used a
9
systematic literature review (SLR) to understand the factors affecting organizational
performance and employee engagement from some literature published in databases of well-
known journals such as Emerald, Wiley, Scopus, SAGE, and Google Scholar from 2010 to
2022. The goal is to reflect the factors that influence the impact of employee engagement on
organizational performance. The results showed a significant relationship between the effect
of employee engagement on organizational performance with p < 0.01. The limitation of this
study is that this study is limited to subjects that discuss the impact of employee engagement
and organizational performance.

Nithya Rajendran (2022) in the paper,” The Impact of Employee Engagement on

Organizational Performance: A Study on an Organization” states about the impact of
employee engagement on organizational performance in a local pharmaceutical
manufacturing company was investigated, which revealed statistically non-significant
relationship between rewards and recognition with employee engagement. Organizational
performance and employee engagement are vital elements for sustainability of business
entities. In future studies, other factors can be studied with respect to local and international
pharmaceutical organizations with broader sample size to confirm the casual relationship
found in this study.

Saumya Shirina (2021) paper titled “Driving Employee Engagement in Today’s Dynamic
Workplace: A Literature Review” states that increasing engagement is a primary objective
of organizations seeking to understand and measure engagement. Employee engagement is
the extent to which employees feel connected, passionate about their duties at work and are
committed and put unrestricted effort into their work. Employee engagement strategies have
been proven to reduce staff turnover, improve productivity and performance, retain customers
at a greater rate and make more profits. Employee engagement today has become
interchangeable with terms like employee satisfaction and employee well-being.
Professionals have a higher possibility to be “distracted” and “disengaged” at work in the
dynamic workplace today. Most importantly, engaged employees have a sense of well-being
and are happier both in their personal and in their professional lives. The objective of this

10
research is to do a literature review and analyse the result that focuses on the evolving role of
employee engagement practices in the dynamic workplace of today.

Arnab Kumar Samanta (2021) in the paper, “Organizational culture and Employee
engagement: A Review of selected studies” the authors tried to examine the effect of
organizational culture on employee engagement and performance and its evaluation has been
identified by certain selected researcher's research and their main aim of research article is to
identify and determine strong relationship between organizational culture and employee
engagement as well as performance. The study attempts to examine the effect of
organizational culture on employee engagement and performance and its evaluation has been
identified by certain selected researcher’s research. In this study it was tried to look at the
effect of organizational culture on employee’s engagement and performance with evidence of
selected related literatures.

Garima Sainger (2019) in the paper,” Building engagement in the workplace for
employee productivity: A conceptual review”, the authors have discussed about evolution
and conceptual overview of employee engagement and how engagement is related to
employee productivity and organisational benefits, and highlighted about worldwide
scenarios of Employee Engagement, what are different drivers of it and how it can be
managed. The purpose of this study is to understand how Employee Engagement will help
organisations manage employee productivity and succeed in a complex competitive
environment. The study aims to discuss about evolution and conceptual overview of
employee engagement and how engagement is related to employee productivity and
organisational benefits. The study also highlights about worldwide scenarios of employee
engagement, what are different drivers of it and how it can be managed.

Rebecca Jones (2018) in the paper “The Relationship of Employee Engagement and
Employee Job Satisfaction to Organizational Commitment” states the relationship
between employee engagement, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment was
examined by Jones et al. as mentioned in this paper, who found a significant association
between engagement and job satisfaction and also found that job satisfaction was a predictor
of organizational commitment.
11
Anjum Tanwar (2017) in the paper, “Impact of Employee Engagement on Performance”
this paper states that an Impact of Employee Engagement on the performance of the
employees has been found and the purpose of this paper is to find out an impact of employee
engagement on the impact of employees performance. Since Employee engagement is a fairly
novel concept thus a lot of measurement metrics are not present to find out direct relationship
between employee engagement and its impact on the performance of employees thus the
purpose of this paper is to find out an Impact of employee engagement on the performance of
the employees.

Vipul Saxena (2015) in this paper “Impact of employee engagement on employee

performance-case of manufacturing sectors” the authors found that the degree of
employee engagement strongly correlates with organizational culture, open communication
with supervisors, empathetic attitude of the superiors towards the employees, recognition of
one's contributions towards the organizational goals, and freedom to participate in the
decision making process, safety measures in the organization and HR policies related to
training and development, compensation and benefits and career development. Contribution
of the paper: Study developed a model which will help in better implementation of
engagement strategy for improving performance and retention. The study covers both white
collar and blue collar employee for better understanding at both levels in emerging markets
like India. This is the first such study involving both segment of manufacturing units.

Bhagyasree Padhi (2015) in the paper, “A Study on Employee Engagement Models for
Sustainability of Organisation” the authors discuss the meaning and significance of the
employee engagement in the organization and various models related to employee
engagement have been discussed and the factors that keep the employees motivated and
engaged have been highlighted. Out of several resources available to the organizations,
management of human resource, in general, and keeping the employees engaged in the work
place, in particular, has become the most sensitive aspect that plays a crucial role in the
success or failure of the business today. The study suggests that the management should be

12
cautious enough to take care of the employees in the way that they should feel valued and
involved in the work.

I.Shanmuga Priya (2014) in the paper, “Employee Engagement in Organizations” state

that employee engagement is defined as an attitude or behaviours that imply being busy with,
involved in, attracted by, committed to, retained and held fast in our work or organisation as
discussed by the authors. According to Scarlett Surveys, "Employee Engagement is a
measurable degree of an employee's positive or negative emotional attachment to their job,
colleagues and organization that profoundly influences their willingness to learn and perform
is at work". Thus engagement is distinctively different from employee satisfaction,
motivation and organizational culture.

C. Swarnalatha (2012) in the paper, “Employee engagement: the key to organizational”

success states that the employee engagement is a vast construct that touches almost all parts
of human resource management facets we know hitherto as discussed by the authors, and it is
a predictor of positive organizational performance clearly showing the two-way relationship
between employer and employee compared to the three earlier constructs: job satisfaction,
employee commitment and organizational citizenship behaviour. Engaged employees are
emotionally attached to their organization and highly involved in their job with a great
enthusiasm for the success of their employer, going extra mile beyond the employment
contractual agreement.

Bijaya Kumar Sundaray (2011) in the paper “Employee Engagement: A Driver of

Organizational Effectiveness” The authors focus on various factors which lead to employee
engagement and what should company do to make the employees engaged and what kind of
attention on engagement strategies will increase the organizational effectiveness in terms of
higher productivity, profits, quality, customersatisfaction, employee retention and increased
adaptability. This paper focuses on various factors which lead to employee engagement and
what should company do to make the employees engaged. Proper attention on engagement
strategies will increase the organizational effectiveness in terms of higher productivity,
profits, quality, customer satisfaction, employee retention and increased adaptability.
13
Rama J. Joshi (2011) in the paper, “Drivers of Employee Engagement in Indian
Organizations” the authors analyse organizational climate and its role in driving Employee
Engagement in a variety of Indian organizations and find that Work Life Balance, Job
Content, Monetary Benefits and Team Orientation are common drivers of engagement for
both executives and non-executives. Employee engagement has a direct relationship with
employee performance and business results. Scope for Advancement and Top-Management
Employee Relations were the additional key drivers of engagement for executives. 'Employee
Engagement' is a relatively new term in HR literature and came into prominence from 2000
onwards. The term Employee Engagement, coined by the Gallup Research Group, has been
attractive for the major reason that it has been shown to have a statistical relationship with
productivity, profitability, employee retention, safety, and customer satisfaction.

3.4 Research Design

3.4.1 Data Collection Methods

Primary data
Primary data was collected through direct interaction with employees. The
employees are interviewed by giving a questionnaire the filled in questionnaire leads to the
collection of primary data.
Secondary data
Secondary data termed as reference data. The data is obtained form already existing
information, information from the personnel department’s reports, and welfare department
company journals, yearbooks, website etc.

16
Tools Used

1. Simple Percentage analysis

2. Chi-square test
3. Correlation
4. Anova
5. Regression

Percentage analysis

Percentage refers to a special kind of ratio. Percentage is used in making comparison

about two or more series of data. Percentage as also used to describe relationship. It is also
used to compare the relative terms of two or more series of data.

Number of respondents
Percentage of respondents = ______________________ X 100
Total respondents

Chi-square

Chi-square was done to find out one way analysis between socio demographic variable
and various dimensions of the programme

O – Observed frequency, E – Expected frequency

Correlation

Correlation is computed into what is known as the correlation coefficient, which

ranges between -1 and +1. Perfect positive correlation (a correlation co-efficient of +1)
implies that as one security moves, either up or down, the other security will move in
lockstep, in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if one
17
security moves in either direction the security that is perfectly negatively correlated will
move in the opposite direction. If the correlation is 0, the movements of the securities are said
to have no correlation; they are completely random.

∑ XY
=
√(∑ X 2 ) (∑ 𝑌 2 )

Anova
Examination of change, or ANOVA, is a solid measurable method that is utilized to
show contrast between at least two methods or parts through importance tests. It likewise
shows us an approach to make numerous examinations of a few populace implies. The Anova
test is performed by looking at two sorts of variety, the variety between the example implies,
just as the variety inside every one of the examples. Beneath referenced recipe addresses one
way Anova test measurements:

F = Anova Coefficient
MST = Mean sum of squares due to treatment
MSE = Mean sum of squares due to error

Regression

Regression is a statistical technique used to analyze the relationship between a

dependent variable and one or more independent variables. It helps in predicting the
dependent variable based on the values of the independent variables by fitting a line (in the
case of simple linear regression) or a hyperplane (in the case of multiple regression) that best
represents the data. The formula for simple linear regression is 𝑦=𝛽0+𝛽1𝑥+𝜖y=β0+β1x+ϵ,
where 𝑦y is the predicted value, 𝑥x is the independent variable, 𝛽0β0 is the y-intercept, 𝛽1β1
is the slope, and 𝜖ϵ is the error term. Regression is widely used in various fields to make
predictions, understand relationships, and inform decision-making based on data analysis.

18
3.4.2 Sampling Methods

The sampling technique used in this study is “convenience sampling” when the population
element for inclusion in the sample is based on the ease of access. It can be called as
convenience.

3.4.3 Respondents

Employees: The primary respondents will be the employees. As respondents, employees may
exhibit various behaviours and actions that reflect their perceptions, attitudes, and
experiences within the organization.

3.4.4 Sample Size

1. Population size: The total number of employees is 150 considered for the study.

2. Calculate the proportion: Divide the number of department according to the total
population size.

3. Determine the desired overall sample size: This can be done using various statistical
formulas considering factors like desired precision, confidence level, and population size.

19
3.4.5 Research framework:

3.5 Limitations of The Study

The study relies on self-reported data from employees, which may be subject to bias or
inaccuracies. Employees may provide responses they perceive as socially desirable or may
not accurately represent their true feelings and behaviours.

The study's findings may be limited by the size and representativeness of the sample
population. If the sample size is small or not diverse enough, the results may not be
generalizable to the broader organization or industry.

5.2 SUGGESTIONS

The Company Policy enables the Human Resource Department to engage and select a
favorable workforce in the organization. However few suggestions have being given that will
enable the organization to improve on its workforce

1. While employee recruiting the Automobile industry should avoid internal

promotions at all times since this brings about inner breeding which discourages
new employee recruits who would have contributed tremendously to the growth of
the company.
2. The Company should also increase the salary level of the employees so as to
attract other outside people who are qualified and willing to join Automobile
industry.
3. The Company should also try and reduce the probation period of one year to at
least six months since this keeps the selected employees in anxiety since he or she
is not permanently employed.
4. The Company should also employee engage people who have at least some
previous job experience since it enables the Company to reduce on Training cost
of the employees and encourage workers performance attribute to the well
executive for high intention of work to the automobile industry.

5.3 CONCLUSION

For an organization to run successfully, Human Resource is very important since it acts
as the heart of each and every organization.An organization either commercial or service
industry has to ensure that the Human Resource it has is qualified and possesses the engage
skill to be able to give expected results to the management. Hence for all this to be possible
the managements have to recruit the employees their ability and flexible talent required
personnel, “the right man for the right job”. The study on enables us to understand what is
48
expected of the Human Resource Department while it recruits and selects employees opinion
to work inside the Automobile industry.From the study the Company can use both Findings
and Recommendations to be able to improve on its Recruitment and selection techniques so
as to enable it to have an efficient and effective workforce.
