changing the cultural norms unilaterally individual victimization wage bonus etc,,, here
attitude on the part of management in their efforts understand the problems of employees and
resolve the issues amicably have better probability to maintain a culture of high performance
managers must be educated about the importance of the grievance process and their role in
management favorable relations with the union . effective grievance handling is an essential
part of cultivating good employee relations and running a fair, successful, and productive
workplace positive labor relations are two-way street both sides must give a little and try
work together relationship building is key to successful labor relations,

people or parties perceive an incompatibility in their goals or expectations. There are seven
methods for achieving reconciliation of conflict. These methods are winning-lose withdrawal
and retreat from argument, something and playing down the difference arbitration, mediation,
15
compromise and problem solving of all these methods problem solving method is most likely
to bring about win-win situation.

many textile mills, some of which have been closed down. The company was incorporation in
April 1968.
The National Textile Corporation Limited (NTC) is a central public sector Enterprise
under the ministry of Textile which was incorporation in April 1968 for managing the affairs
of sick textile undertakings in the private sector, taken over by the Government. Starting with
16 mills in 1968, this number gradually rose to 103 by 1972-73. In the year 1974 all these
units were nationalized under the sick Textile undertaking (Nationalized) Act 1974. The
number of units increased to 119 by 1995. These 119 mills were controlled by NTC Ltd with
the help of 9 Subsidiary corporations, with an authorized capital of 10 crore (US$181
million) which was raised from time to time and which is now about 7,000 crore (US$1.27
billion) and the paid up share capital of the corporation is about 4000 crore (US$ 727
million).
Looking to the reduced number of mills and in line with the contemporary industry’s
trend all 9 subsidiary companies have been merged with NTC Head office, located at New

Cotton industry developed from hand working to factories powered by water and steam
between 1750 and 1820. By the 19th century, most cotton manufactures moved away from a
cottage industry to large, noisy factories. The changes were brought about by the invention of
new machinery which greatly speeded up the cotton production process. The use of modern
technology such as atomic high speed shuttle lees Looms ring spinning in replacement of
handlooms weaving and spinning achieved large scale production and hence proved top more
cost effective .
The textile industry is one of the largest employers of Labour. The industries includes
the spinning , weaving , knitting , and finishing of all types of natural fibers such as

CHAPTERR II
REVIEW OF LITURATURE
Liebenberg, (1984) research indicates that the factors that contribute to the adoption
of dispute resolution mechanisms include the structure of the mechanisms. The role of the
union steward (Dalton and tower, 1982) the applicable rights of the employees and the
mandate and the relationship and the employee (Meyer and Cooke, 1988).
In a naturally occurring field experiment in which an intervention to improve a
grievance procedure was introduced and the removed, Mesch&Dalton (1922) found that the
interrupted time series experimental design resulted in more compromise resolution and a
dramatic increase in the number of grievance field. The enhancement of fairness perceptions
takes place both through instrumental and non-instrumental mechanisms.
Hellman (1993) perhaps brings out the dichotomy succinctly. When he suggests that
agreement is not necessarily good but the neither is disagreement especially when people
disagree for the sake of disagreeing as a way to assert themselves and to avoid feeling
dominated. In the Indian context disputes under the industrial disputes Act 1947 a dispute is
raised when an employment contract is not carried out. The issues could include wage
demands union rivalry political interference unfair labor practices as described in the fifth
schedule of the ID Act consists of conciliation Arbitration and Adjudication Apart from this
in line with the theories of industrial jurisprudence, in the unionized context there are
collective bargaining establishment of works committee discipline management and
grievance resolution procedure Which help prevent disputes in the first place.
Perception of fair procedures have instrumental value if they lead to fair rewards
while the non instrumental value connotes a since of treating employees with respect
Neumann et al., (1995). Studies indicate that grievant interest in using voice simply for the
non instrumental sake of being heard or socially valued rather than to actually influences
outcomes. Seems to increase when they perceive that three are less opportunity to influence
outcomes (Barry 2000). This implies that if they wish grievant to derive non instrumental
satisfaction with an appeals process. Listeners to grievances would need to demonstrate
convincingly that instrumental action on behalf of the grievant is truly unavailable Moreover;
unfavorable outcomes that are reached by fair process generate higher distributive justice
ratings than favorable outcomes reached by unfair processes (Blanker 1995).
21
Despite the contention that formation of labor unions is necessary for the survival of the
workers (Vickery, 1990) and the concern that workers have a reduced capacity to initiate
issues and articulate grievances in the non unionized workplaces (Kaufman and tares 1999)
and they enjoy less benefits three seems to be a link between the use of high performance
work systems and the adoption of non-union dispute resolution procedures (Colvin 2003).
The study by Bat Colvin and keeve (2002) indicated that while union presence had a negative
relationship with quit rates the prediction for non-union dispute resolution procedures was
uncertain as they may be designed to encourage or suppress employee voice. However rising
of individual contracts and union substitution by employers is leading to adoption of non-
unionized disputes resolution mechanisms at the workplace (Colvin 2003).
Conclusion:
Several articals were reviewed on grievance handling procedure. In which according to
Hellman (1993) insisted on they grievance resolution procedure that will help to prevent,
they disputes in the workplace. A proper grievance handling procdure should be adopted, so
tat the expectation of every employee working in the organization are fulfilled.

5.2 Suggestions
To overcome the grievance there are few needs indentified by the respondents which are
listed out as below
 Due do the lack of grievance redressal procedure, the employees should be given an
opportunity to express their dissatisfaction, which will automatically pave a way to
settle their frustration.
 During the times of settlement the satisfaction of the employee should be ultimate
goal of an organization.
 To follow an effective settlement the company needs to keep a check on arbitrary
actions during grievance procedures.
 It is suggested that a good grievance redressal may bring harmonious industrial
relations as employee grievances are settled before they turn into industrial conflict.
5.3 Conclusion
The employee with a grievance first approaches his supervisor/manager and conveys his
problems, verbally. This grievance may also be expressed in a conference of a discussion
specifically arranged for this purpose. The grievance can be settled at this stage if the
supervisor has the requisite people management and problem solving skills. If the employee
is not satisfied with the settlement, the supervisor forwards this grievance to a higher-level
manager or departmental head with a not mentioning the grievance of the employee and the
failure in the first stage of redressal. The manager solving the grievance at this level may be
a business manager or superintendent or an industrial relations officer who checks the
grievance and gives his verdict.
In case of Cambodia Mills Limited the procedures followed by the organization was very
much satisfying and from the survey it was found that almost all the respondents are satisfied
towards the grievance procedures of the organization. The study concludes that this shall be
kept intact to achieve the satisfaction level among employees and organization.

  • 22. 20 CHAPTERR II REVIEW OF LITURATURE Liebenberg, (1984) research indicates that the factors that contribute to the adoption of dispute resolution mechanisms include the structure of the mechanisms. The role of the union steward (Dalton and tower, 1982) the applicable rights of the employees and the mandate and the relationship and the employee (Meyer and Cooke, 1988). In a naturally occurring field experiment in which an intervention to improve a grievance procedure was introduced and the removed, Mesch&Dalton (1922) found that the interrupted time series experimental design resulted in more compromise resolution and a dramatic increase in the number of grievance field. The enhancement of fairness perceptions takes place both through instrumental and non-instrumental mechanisms. Hellman (1993) perhaps brings out the dichotomy succinctly. When he suggests that agreement is not necessarily good but the neither is disagreement especially when people disagree for the sake of disagreeing as a way to assert themselves and to avoid feeling dominated. In the Indian context disputes under the industrial disputes Act 1947 a dispute is raised when an employment contract is not carried out. The issues could include wage demands union rivalry political interference unfair labor practices as described in the fifth schedule of the ID Act consists of conciliation Arbitration and Adjudication Apart from this in line with the theories of industrial jurisprudence, in the unionized context there are collective bargaining establishment of works committee discipline management and grievance resolution procedure Which help prevent disputes in the first place. Perception of fair procedures have instrumental value if they lead to fair rewards while the non instrumental value connotes a since of treating employees with respect Neumann et al., (1995). Studies indicate that grievant interest in using voice simply for the non instrumental sake of being heard or socially valued rather than to actually influences outcomes. Seems to increase when they perceive that three are less opportunity to influence outcomes (Barry 2000). This implies that if they wish grievant to derive non instrumental satisfaction with an appeals process. Listeners to grievances would need to demonstrate convincingly that instrumental action on behalf of the grievant is truly unavailable Moreover; unfavorable outcomes that are reached by fair process generate higher distributive justice ratings than favorable outcomes reached by unfair processes (Blanker 1995).
  • 23. 21 Despite the contention that formation of labor unions is necessary for the survival of the workers (Vickery, 1990) and the concern that workers have a reduced capacity to initiate issues and articulate grievances in the non unionized workplaces (Kaufman and tares 1999) and they enjoy less benefits three seems to be a link between the use of high performance work systems and the adoption of non-union dispute resolution procedures (Colvin 2003). The study by Bat Colvin and keeve (2002) indicated that while union presence had a negative relationship with quit rates the prediction for non-union dispute resolution procedures was uncertain as they may be designed to encourage or suppress employee voice. However rising of individual contracts and union substitution by employers is leading to adoption of non- unionized disputes resolution mechanisms at the workplace (Colvin 2003). Conclusion: Several articals were reviewed on grievance handling procedure. In which according to Hellman (1993) insisted on they grievance resolution procedure that will help to prevent, they disputes in the workplace. A proper grievance handling procdure should be adopted, so tat the expectation of every employee working in the organization are fulfilled.

  • 73. 71 5.2 Suggestions To overcome the grievance there are few needs indentified by the respondents which are listed out as below  Due do the lack of grievance redressal procedure, the employees should be given an opportunity to express their dissatisfaction, which will automatically pave a way to settle their frustration.  During the times of settlement the satisfaction of the employee should be ultimate goal of an organization.  To follow an effective settlement the company needs to keep a check on arbitrary actions during grievance procedures.  It is suggested that a good grievance redressal may bring harmonious industrial relations as employee grievances are settled before they turn into industrial conflict. 5.3 Conclusion The employee with a grievance first approaches his supervisor/manager and conveys his problems, verbally. This grievance may also be expressed in a conference of a discussion specifically arranged for this purpose. The grievance can be settled at this stage if the supervisor has the requisite people management and problem solving skills. If the employee is not satisfied with the settlement, the supervisor forwards this grievance to a higher-level manager or departmental head with a not mentioning the grievance of the employee and the failure in the first stage of redressal. The manager solving the grievance at this level may be a business manager or superintendent or an industrial relations officer who checks the grievance and gives his verdict. In case of Cambodia Mills Limited the procedures followed by the organization was very much satisfying and from the survey it was found that almost all the respondents are satisfied towards the grievance procedures of the organization. The study concludes that this shall be kept intact to achieve the satisfaction level among employees and organization.
