INTRODUCTION
HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
Human resource management is a philosophy of people management based on the
belief that human resource is uniquely important to sustain business success. An
organization gains competitive advantage by using its people effectively, drawing on
their expertise and ingenuity to meet clear denned objectives. HRM is aimed at recruiting
capable, flexible and imitated people, managing and rewarding their performance and
developing key competencies.
Rarely has the management of employee received more attention, than it does
currently. By choice and default, a new era of HRM practices & philosophy has emerged
and assumed an increased significance in the modern organization. Indian industry is
making unto the challenges thrown in by the market economy. To survive in this highly
competitive scenario managers are being pressurized to improve quality, increase
productivity, cut down waste & eliminate inefficiency. The collective efforts of employer
and employee assumes relevancy in this context. And this is where HRM plays a crucial
role.
HRM is a management function that helps managers recruit, select, brain and
develop employees for an organization. HRM helps to ensure that personnel activities are
integrated into the system for achieving organization goals. It evaluates recruiting, labour
relations and all personnel activities to assess how well they help organizations and
employees achieve the objectives. It ensures that activities are integrated with each other
and with all overall organization objectives.

George.T.Milkovich and John.W.Boubreau:
"Human resource management is a series of decisions that affect the relationship
between employees and employers: it affects many constituencies and is intended to
influence the effectiveness of employees and employer".
Edwin.B.Flippo:
"Management is the planning, organizing, directing and controlling of the
procurement, development, compensation, integration, maintenance and separation of
human resource to the end that individual, organizational and social objectives are
accomplished".
HRM is that part of management concerned with below areas in every organization:
 HRM is a part of the decisions, strategies, factors, principles, operations,
practices, functions, activities and methods related to the management of
people as employees in any type of organization;
 HRM is also the dimensions related to people in their employment
relationships, and all the dynamics that flow from it; and
 All activities aimed at adding value to the delivery of goods and services,
and to the quality of work life of employees.

Objectives of HRM:
The primary objective of HRM is to ensure the availability competent and willing
workforce to an organization. Beyond this there are other objectives too. Specifically,
HRM objectives are four fold, societal, organizational and functional and personnel.
1) Social objectives: To be ethically and socially responsible for the needs
challenges of society while minimizing the negative impact of such demands
upon the organization. The failure of organizations to use their resources for
societies benefit in the wrap may lead to restrictions. For e.g. the society may
limit human resource decisions through laws that enforce reservation, safety or
other such areas of societal concern.
The below chart shows the objectives of HRM:

2) Organizational objectives: To recognize the role of HRM in bringing about
organizational effectiveness. HRM is not an end by itself; it is only a means to
assist the organization with its primary objective.
3) Functional objectives: To maintain the department's contribution at a level
appropriate to the organization's need. Resources are wasted when HRM is either
more or less sophisticated to the organizational demands. The department's level
of service must be tailored to fit the organization it serves.
4) Personnel objectives: To assist the employees in achieving their personal goals,
at least in so far as these goals enhance the individual's contribution to the
organization. Personal objectives of the employees must be met if the workers are
to be maintained, retained and motivated. Otherwise, employee performance and
satisfaction may decline and employees may leave the organization.
Functions of HRM:
In order to realize the objectives stated above, human resource management
must perform certain function. These functions have been stated while outlining the
scope of HRM. Generally, it may be stated that there is a correlation between the
objectives and the functions. In other words, some functions help to realize specific
objectives. For e.g. organizational objectives is sort to be met by discharging such
functions as human resource planning, recruitment and selection, training and
development and performance appraisal. Similarly personnel objectives is sort to be
realized through out as remuneration, assessment. The following figure contains the
full list of objectives and functions.

EMPLOYEE INVOLVEMENT AND WELFARE MEASURES
When an organization truly wants to create a positive work environment that is
based on high trust, exceptional customer service, collaborative teamwork, operational
excellence, and creative problem solving, then the leadership team must begin to
understand, invest in, and be responsive to the needs of the group that represents the
organization‘s most valuable assets, and is also one of its most important customers, the
employees. The return on such nominal investments will come in the form of higher
levels of employee motivation, creativity, productivity, and commitment that will move
the organization forward with greater profitability. A fundamental Organizational
Development precept is that employees must be involved and organization should wants
to facilitate welfare activities for their employees.
The welfare amenities are extended in additional to normal wages and other
economic rewards available to employees as per the legal provisions. Welfare measures
may also be provided by the government, trade unions and non-government agencies in
addition to the employer. ―International Labour Organization efforts to make life worth
living for workers‖ According to the Oxford dictionary ―Welfare is fundamentally an
attitude of mind on the part of management influencing the method by which
management activities are undertaken.
Employee involvement means that every employee is regarded as a unique human
being, not just a cog in a machine, and each employee is involved in helping the
organization meet its goals. Each employee‘s input is solicited and valued by his/her
management. Employees and management recognize that each employee is involved in
running the business.
Employee welfare is a term including various services, benefits and facilities
offered to employees by the employers. The welfare measures need not be monetary but
in any kind/forms. This includes items such as allowances, housing, transportation,
medical insurance and food. Employee welfare also includes monitoring of working
conditions, creations of industrial harmony through infrastructure for health, industrial
relations and insurance against disease, accident and unemployment for the workers and
their families. Through such generous benefits the employer makes life worth living for
employees.

Concept of Employee Involvement and Welfare Measures:
Employee involvement & welfare may be viewed as a total concept, as asocial
concept and a relative concept. The total concept is a desirable state of existence
involving the physical, mental, moral and emotional well-being. These four elements
together constitute the structure of involvement & welfare, on which its totality is based.
The social concept of welfare implies the welfare of man, his family, his community and
also for the organizational development by which without much supervisory of
employees on workplace.
One of the greatest underlying factors in the success or failure of any
organization is the power of its people, and how well that power is focused towards
meeting the organization‘s objectives. Modern manufacturing management pursues the
goal of a paperless factory, with design concepts moving from an engineering computer –
aided – design terminal through data links to a computer – aided – manufacturing
terminal, which in turn drives a numerically controlled machine.
The above factory automation example notwithstanding, all companies operate on
the strengths and weaknesses of their employees. Even in a fully automated factory,
employees have to design, maintain, and operate the systems that create output.
Organizations that can tap the strengths of their people will be stronger and more
competitive than those that cannot. Organizations that regard people as automatons or
mere cogs in a wheel will never realize their full potential. In the long run, such
companies‘ inefficiencies attract competition, and unless the management philosophy
changes, they will disappear.
‗Welfare‘ is a broad concept referring to a state of living of an individual or a
group, in a desirable relationship with the total environment-ecological, economic and
social. The term ‗welfare‘ includes both the social and economic contents of welfare.
The Employee Involvement and welfare occupies a place of significance in the
industrial development and economy. It is an important fact of industrial relations, the
extra dimension, giving satisfaction to the worker in a way which evens a good wage
cannot with the growth of industrialization and mechanization, it has acquired added
importance. A happy and committed (and Positive Engaged) workforce is an asset for the
industrial prosperity of any Organization.

LITERATURE REVIEW
Definition:
Employee involvement:
Employee Involvement is process for empowering employees to participate in
managerial decision-making and improvement activities appropriate to their levels in the
organization.
McGregor’s Theory Y first brought to managers the idea of a participative management
style; employee involvement has taken many forms, including the job design approaches
and special activities such as quality of work life (QWL) programs.
According to Susan M. Healthfield, Human Resources expert Say’s,
―Employee involvement is creating an environment in which people have an impact on
decisions and actions that affect their jobs‖.
―Employee involvement is not the goal nor is it a tool, as practiced in many
organizations. Rather, it is a management and leadership philosophy about how people
are most enabled to contribute to continuous improvement and the ongoing success of
their work organization‖.
Robert Bullock, Scontrino-Powell
―The direct participation of staff to help an organization fulfil its mission and meet its
objectives by applying their own ideas, expertise, and efforts towards solving problems
and making decisions‖.
Employee or Labour Welfare:
The oxford dictionary defines labour welfare as ―efforts to make life worth living for
workman‖ chambers dictionary defines welfare as a state of faring or doing well:
freedom from calamity, enjoyment of health and prosperity.
STUDY ON EMPLOYEE INVOLVEMENT AND WELFARE MEASURES AT ABNL
VIJAYA DEGREE COLLEGE, R.V ROAD, BANGALORE – 560004. Page 9
In the words of R.R.Hopkins,
―welfare is fundamentally an attitude of mind on the part of management,
influencing the method by which management activities are undertaken.‖ Obviously the
emphasis here is on the ―attitude of mind.‖
The Labour Investigation Committee (1944-46),
Includes under labour welfare activities anything done for the intellectual,
physical, moral and economical betterment of the workers, whether by employers by
government or by other agencies, over and above what is laid down by law or what is
normally expected as part of the contractual benefits for which the workers may have
bargained.‖
The Report of the committee on Labour welfare (1969),
Includes under it ―such services, facilities and amenities as adequate canteens, rest
and recreation facilities, sanitary and medical facilities, arrangements for travel to and
from work and for the accommodation of workers employed at a distance from their
homes, and such other services, amenities and facilities including social security
measures as contribute to improve the conditions under which workers are employed.‘
The whole field of welfare is said to be one ―in which much can be done to combat the
sense of frustration of the industrial workers, to relieve them of personal and family
worries to improve their health, to afford them means of self-expression, to offer them
some sphere in which they can excel others and to help them to a wider conception of
life.‘‘ It promotes the well-being of workers in a variety of ways.
Employee Involvement Model:
For people and organizations who desire a model to apply, the best have
discovered was developed from work by Tannenbaum and Schmidt (1958) and Sadler
(1970). They provide a continuum for leadership and involvement that includes an
increasing role for employees and a decreasing role for supervisors in the decision
process. The continuum includes this progression.
i) Tell: the supervisor makes the decision and announces it to staff. The
supervisor provides complete direction. Useful when communicating about
safety issues, government regulations, decisions that neither require nor ask
for employee input.

VIJAYA DEGREE COLLEGE, R.V ROAD, BANGALORE – 560004. Page 10
Figure 1.2
ii) Sell: the supervisor makes the decision and then attempts to gain commitment
from staff by "selling" the positive aspects of the decision. Useful when
employee commitment is needed, but the decision is not open to employee
influence
iii) Consult: the supervisor invites input into a decision while retaining authority
to make the final decision herself. The key to a successful consultation is to
inform employees, on the front end of the discussion, that their input is
needed, but that the supervisor is retaining the authority to make the final
decision. This is the level of involvement that can create employee
dissatisfaction most readily when this is not clear to the people providing
input
iv) Join: the supervisor invites employees to make the decision with the
supervisor. The supervisor considers her voice equal in the decision process.
The key to a successful join is when the supervisor truly builds consensus around a
decision and is willing to keep her influence equal to that of the others providing
input.
v) Delegate: the supervisor turns the decision over to another party.

Outcomes of Employee Involvement
Providing opportunities for active participation is beneficial for individuals as
well as entire organizations. Applied organizational researchers have identified a myriad
of positive outcomes of employee involvement initiatives. The list below shows just how
much of an impact that employee participation and voice can have on the performance
and well-being of a person, team, department, or entire organization.
1) Improved organizational decision-making capability. (Apostolou, 2000)
2) Improved attitude regarding work. (Leana, Ahlbrandt, & Murrell, 1992)
3) Substantially improved employee well-being. (Freeman & Kleiner, 2005)
4) Reduced costs through elimination of waste and reduced product cycle times.
(Apostolou, 2000)
5) Empowerment, job satisfaction, creativity, commitment, and motivation,
as well as intent to stay. (Apostolou, 2000; Light, 2004)
6) Increased employee productivity across industries. (Jones, Kalmi, &
Kauhanen, 2010)
7) Decrease in staff turnover (Susan M. Healthfield, 2007)
8) Increases More effective communication (Susan M. Healthfield, 2007)
How to Get Employee Involvement:-
Depending on your background or specialty is developed by Robert Bullock,
Scontrino-Powell. You may refer to it as engagement, voice, participation, democracy,
etc. No matter what you call it, the concept of employee ―voice‖ has been a topic of
consideration for centuries. Even ancient Romans understood the value of having direct
participation in matters of business and state. Organizations are still realizing the
importance of employee involvement in every type and level of work. So what exactly
is employee involvement and how can organizations benefit from it.
STUDY ON EMPLOYEE INVOLVEMENT AND WELFARE MEASURES AT ABNL
VIJAYA DEGREE COLLEGE, R.V ROAD, BANGALORE – 560004. Page 12
In order for an employee involvement process to be effective, three things need
to be present:
1) Employees need to be given the authority to participate in substantive decisions
2) Employees need to have training or experience with appropriate decision-making
skills
3) Incentives to participate (either implicit or explicit) must be present
Formal interventions usually involve manager and staff training, buy-in and vocal
support from the highest levels, and the application of specific measures to increase
employee participation. Examples of specific measures include: self-directed/self-
managed work teams, problem solving teams, and cross-functional task-forces (to name a
few).
However, if wants to start encouraging employee involvement in organization right
now, following these steps:
1) Give a brief survey to your staff that is made up of open-ended questions that ask
for specific improvement ideas,
2) Review every response,
3) Communicate the results with all of your staff, and
4) Create a team to implement the easiest ideas that can have the greatest positive
impact (see this chart as an easy template to organize ideas). Here are a couple of
survey questions to get you started:
―If you were in charge, what steps would you take to make our organization
even better?‖
―What are two actions we can take to improve our services?‖
Surveys always have a caveat. If you are not ready to act on what your employees tell
you, reconsider conducting a survey. Organizations are often better off not asking for
employee ideas and/or feedback than asking and not communicating and acting on
results.

Scope of Welfare Measures:
It is somewhat difficult to accurately lay down the scope of labour welfare work,
especially because of the fact that labour is composed of dynamic individuals with
complex needs. Its scope has been described by writers and institutions of different ways.
The scope of labour welfare can be interpreted in different countries, with varying stages
of economic development, political outlook and social philosophy.
While expressing its interpretation regarding the scope of labour welfare, the ILO
has observed: ―the term is one which lends itself of various interpretations and it has not
always the same significance in different countries. Sometimes the concept is a very wide
one and is more or less synonymous conditions of work as a whole. It may include not
only the minimum standard of hygiene and safety laid down in general labour legislation,
but also such aspects of working life as social insurance schemes, measures for the
protection of women and young workers, limitation of hours of work, and paid vacations.
In other cases, the definition is much more limited, and welfare, in addition to general
physical working conditions, is mainly concerned with the day-to-day problems of the
workers and the social relationships at the place of work. In some countries the use of
welfare facilities provided is confined to the workers employed in the undertaking
concerned, while in others, the workers‘ families are allowed to share in many of the
benefits which are made available.‘‘
As the subject of welfare facilities is a very broad one covering a wide field of
amenities and activities, limits cannot be rigidly laid down regarding its scope for all
industries and for all times. In the final analysis labour welfare survive should include all
extra-mural and intra-mural welfare work, statutory and non-statutory welfare facilities
undertaken by the employers,
Government, trade unions or voluntary organization and also social security
measures which contribute to worker‘ welfare such as industrial health, insurance,
provident fund, gratuity, maternity benefits, workmen‘s compensation, retirement
benefits, and so on. More specifically, we may examine the ways in which labour welfare
is classified in order to obtain a clearer understanding of its scope.

Employee or Labour welfare work can be broadly into two
categories:
i) Statutory, and
ii) Non-statutory or voluntary.
Statutory measures:
This refers to those provisions which are desired from the coercive power of the
government and their observance in any industry is binding on the employer by law
(factories act of 1948)
 canteen facilities(sec46)
 working facilities(sec42)
 first aid appliances(sec45)
 facilities for sitting (sec44)
 shelters rest rooms and lunch rooms(sec47)
 crèches(sec18)
 drinking water facilities(sec18)
 lighting(sec19)
 urinals(sec19)
 spittoons(sec20)
 welfare officers (maternity benefit) (sec49)
 Provident fund schemes
 E.S.I schemes
 Family pension schemes
 Gratuity

VIJAYA DEGREE COLLEGE, R.V ROAD, BANGALORE – 560004. Page 15
Non-statutory measures:
There are activities which are under taken by the employees for their workers. are
philanthropic Such welfare activates are philanthropic but in the long run they increase
efficiency of worker and reduce of conflict between employees and worker.
 Housing Facilities
 Transport Facilities
 Medical facilities
 Cultural activities
 Recreation
 Consumer co-operation
 Loan and various advances
 Leave Traveling Concession
 Worker education
 School for the employees children
 Uniform
 Labor welfare fund
 Libraries
 Vehicles stand for parking
Statutory welfare consists of those provisions of welfare work which depend for
their implementation on the coercive power of the government. The government enacts
certain rules of labour welfare to enforce the minimum standards of health and safety of
workers. The employers are required by law to fulfill their statutory obligations on
welfare. Every country is increasing gradually its statutory control over labour welfare.
Non-statutory welfare measures include all those activities which employers undertake
for the welfare of their workers on voluntary basis. There are some social welfare
organizations which undertake voluntary welfare work for the benefit of their members.

Aims and Objectives Employee Welfare:
The aim or object of welfare activities is partly humanitarian-to enable workers to
enjoy a fuller and richer life-and partly economic- to improve of the workers- and also
partly civic-to develop among them a sense of responsibility and dignity and thus make
them worthy citizens of the nation. Another object of labour welfare is to fulfil the
future needs and aspirations of labour.
The following motives and considerations have prompted employers to provide
welfare measures:
1) Some of the early philanthropic employers tried to ameliorate the working and
living conditions of their workers by providing various welfare measures.
2) Some of them took recourse to welfare work to win over their employees‘ loyalty
and to combat trade unionism and socialist ideas. The devotion to welfare work
by many American employers during the twenties could be attributed to their anti-
unionism. However, such a motive did not succeed in checking the spread of trade
unionism.
3) Some employers provided labour welfare services to build up a stable labour
force, to reduce labour turnover and absenteeism and to promote better relations.
With their employees.
4) At present, labour welfare has been conceived of by some employers as an
incentive and good investment to secure, preserve and develop greater efficiency
and output from workers. Anyhow, there is no direct relationship between welfare
work on the one hand and efficiency and productivity on the other. Apart from
this, it is very difficult to quantify the additional contribution of welfare measures
to the increased productivity. However, some studies have shown a positive link
between labour welfare and productivity.
5) One of the objects for provision of welfare activities in recent times by certain
employers is to save themselves from heavy taxes on surplus
STUDY ON EMPLOYEE INVOLVEMENT AND WELFARE MEASURES AT ABNL
VIJAYA DEGREE COLLEGE, R.V ROAD, BANGALORE – 560004. Page 17
6) The purpose behind provision of welfare amenities by some companies is to
enhance their image and to create an atmosphere of goodwill between labour and
management and also between management and the public.
Principles of Labour or Employee Welfare:
The following are some of the principles to be kept in mind for successful
implementations of any welfare programme in an organization:
1) The labour welfare activities should pervade the entire hierarchy of an
organization. Management should be welfare-oriented at every level.
2) The employer should not bargain labour welfare as a substitute for wages or
monetary incentives. In other words, the workers have a right to adequate wages
in addition to welfare measures.
3) The employer should look after the welfare of his employees as a matter of social
obligation. The constitution of India, in its directive principles of state policy,
also emphasizes this aspect of labour welfare.
4) Labour welfare must aim at helping employees to help themselves in the long run.
This principle of self-help will enable them to become more responsible and more
efficient.
5) There should be proper co-ordination, harmony and integration if all labour
welfare services in an undertaking.
6) The labour welfare work of an organization must be administratively viable and
essentially development oriented.
7) The management should ensure co-operation and active participation of unions
and workers in formulating and implementing labour welfare programmers‘.
8) There should be periodical assessment or evaluation of welfare measures and
necessary timely improvements on the basis of feedback.

RESEARCH DESIGN
A Research design is the basic plan, which guides the data collection and analysis
phases of the research project. It is the framework, which specifies the type of
information to be collected, the source of data, and the data collection procedure. A good
collection procedure will make sure that the information gather is consistent with this
study objectives and that the data collected by accurate and economic procedures.
The objective of research project logically determines the characteristics desired
in the research design. Before starting any study of research the researcher anticipate the
needs and the circumstance of the proposed project and decides in advance what to obtain
and what to do for a detail study. A lot of things and a fair amount of spadework are
required if a Research Design has to serve well, for all the different aspects of project
have to be considered and the working plans and schedules prepared.

NEED OF STUDY
The 5 M's (management, man, machine, material, methods and money) Out of
these resources man power is an asset to the organization. It also called knowledge
capital. As the management Guru Peter F.Drucker rightly says "knowledge is the only
meaningful resource today" for access to other resources is no longer limited. Capital
freely flows across the borders, seeking out the companies that need it. Today the human
resources is very demanding and they are look at jobs to test their own knowledge,
organization are also realizing the importance of people resources in this liberalized,
globalized and privatized economy.
Employee involvement and welfare can be statistically proved is directly co
related to customer satisfaction. Every organization should determine whether the
employees working are satisfied with the facility provided by the organization. This is the
need of the labour because satisfied employees will ensure satisfied customers.
In order to make them happy, feel satisfied and retain them, organization plan
retention strategies. To make this possible one has to determine whether the present
employees perceived satisfaction towards the positive involvement and welfare facilities.
The survey on employee satisfaction will help the organization to evaluate its return on
investment in the important area like Employee involvement and welfare measures.

INDUSTRY PROFILE
INTRODUCTION
The Indian textile industry is one of the largest in the world with a massive raw
material and textiles manufacturing base. Our economy is largely dependent on the textile
manufacturing and trade in addition to other major industries. About 27% of the foreign
exchange earnings are on account of export of textiles and clothing alone. The textiles
and clothing sector contributes about 14% to the industrial production and 3% to the
gross domestic product of the country. Around 8% of the total excise revenue collection
is contributed by the textile industry. So much so, the textile industry accounts for as
large as 21% of the total employment generated in the economy. Around 35 million
people are directly employed in the textile manufacturing activities. Indirect employment
including the manpower engaged in agricultural based raw-material production like
cotton and related trade and handling could be stated to be around another 60 million.
A textile is the largest single industry in India (and amongst the biggest in the
world), accounting for about 20% of the total industrial production. It provides direct
employment to around 20 million people. Textile and clothing exports account for one-
third of the total value of exports from the country. There are 1,227 textile mills with a
spinning capacity of about 29 million spindles. While yarn is mostly produced in the
mills, fabrics are produced in the powerloom and handloom sectors as well. The Indian
textile industry continues to be predominantly based on cotton, with about 65% of raw
materials consumed being cotton. The yearly output of cotton cloth was about 12.8
billion m (about 42 billion ft). The manufacture of jute products (1.1 million metric tons)
ranks next in importance to cotton weaving. Textile is one of India‘s oldest industries and
has a formidable presence in the national economy inasmuch as it contributes to about 14
per cent of manufacturing value-addition, accounts for around one-third of our gross
export earnings and provides gainful employment to millions of people. They include
cotton and jute growers, artisans and weavers who are engaged in the organised as well as
decentralised and household sectors spread across the entire country.

ROLE OF INDIAN TEXTILE INDUSTRY IN THE ECONOMY
Textile industry plays a significant role in the economy. The Indian textile
industry is one of the largest and most important sectors in the economy in terms of
output, foreign exchange earnings and employment in India. It contributes 20 per cent of
industrial production, 9 per cent of excise collections, 18 per cent of employment in
industrial sector, nearly 20 per cent to the country‘s total export earnings and 4 per cent
ton the GDP. The sector employs nearly 35 million people and is the second highest
employer in the country. The textile sector also has a direct link with the rural economy
and performance of major fibre crops and crafts such as cotton, wool, silk, handicrafts
and handlooms, which employ millions of farmers and crafts persons in rural and semi-
urban areas. It has been estimated that one out of every six households in the country
depends directly or indirectly on this sector.
India has several advantages in the textile sector, including abundant availability
of raw material and labour. It is the second largest player in the world cotton trade. It has
the largest cotton acreage, of about nine million hectares and is the third largest producer
of cotton fibre in the world. It ranks fourth in terms of staple fibre production and fourth
in polyester yarn production. The textile industry is also labour intensive, thus India has
an advantage.
GOVERNMENT INITIATIVES
With a view to raise India's share in the global textiles trade to 10 per cent by
2015 (from the current 3 per cent), the Ministry of Textiles proposes 50 new textile parks.
Out of the 50, 30 have been already sanctioned by the government (with a cost of US$
710 million). Set up under the Scheme for Integrated Textile Parks (SITP), this initiative
will not only make the industry cost competitive, but will also enhance manufacturing
capacity in the sector.

INDIAN TEXTILE INDUSTRY – SWOT ANALYSIS
Strength
 India has rich resources of raw materials of textile industry. It is one of the largest
producers of cotton in the world and is also rich in resources of fibres like
polyester, silk, viscose etc.
 India is rich in highly trained manpower. The country has a huge advantage due to
lower wage rates. Because of low labor rates the manufacturing cost in textile
automatically comes down to very reasonable rates.
 India is highly competitive in spinning sector and has presence in almost all
processes of the value chain.
 Indian garment industry is very diverse in size, manufacturing facility, type of
apparel produced, quantity and quality of output, cost, and requirement for fabric
etc. It comprises suppliers of ready-made garments for both, domestic or exports
markets.
Weakness
 Knitted garments manufacturing has remained as an extremely fragmented
industry. Global players would prefer to source their entire requirement from two
or three vendors and the Indian garment units find it difficult to meet the capacity
requirements.
 Industry still plagued with some historical regulations such as knitted garments
still remaining as a SSI domain.
 Labour force giving low productivity as compared to other competing countries.
 Technology obsolescence despite measures such as TUFS.
 Low bargaining power in a customer-ruled market.
STUDY ON EMPLOYEE INVOLVEMENT AND WELFARE MEASURES AT ABNL
VIJAYA DEGREE COLLEGE, R.V ROAD, BANGALORE – 560004. Page 31
 India seriously lacks in trade pact memberships, which leads to restricted access
to the other major markets.
 Indian labour laws are relatively unfavorable to the trades and there is an urgent
need for labour reforms in India.
Opportunity
 Low per-capita domestic consumption of textile indicating significant potential
growth.
 Domestic market extremely sensitive to fashion fads and this has resulted in the
development of a responsive garment industry.
 India's global share is just 3% while China controls about 15%. In post-2005,
China is expected to capture 43% of global textile trade.
 Companies need to concentrate on new product developments.
 Increased use of CAD to develop designing capabilities and for developing
greater options.
Threats
 Competition in post-2005 is not just in exports, but is also likely within the
country due to cheaper imports of goods of higher quality at lower costs.
 Standards such as SA-8000 or WARP have resulted in increased pressure on
companies for improvement of their working practices.
 Alternative competitive advantages would continue to be a barrier.

Today India is booming with fashion and lifestyle, with the organized retail trade
growing at a rate of 30% per annum. The Indian apparel or Indian garment industry is
pegged at more than 90,000 crores with nearly 13% growth per annum. The men's
garment or clothing segment constitutes nearly 45 % of the total apparel market and
growing at a constant rate each year. The share of organized branded segment in men's
wear is fast increasing in the Indian apparel market.
Domestic and Export Share
Indian Garment Sector earns high export revenue, it has witnessed substantial profit
accruing to retailers and Indian manufacturers are reflected in garment workers' wages. In
2004, Asian trade in the Garment Industry was to the tune of 138 billion US dollars. In
Bangalore itself there are large retail chains from the US and Europe - like GAP,
Walmart, Tommy Hilfiger and JC Penny - have outsourced orders to large factories to the
tune of 269.6 million US dollars in 2005.
In 2006, India's textile industry (including garments) contributed 14% to industrial
production, 4% to GDP, and 17% to export revenues which directly employed 35 million
people including women and backward classes. Apparel exports totaled Rs 50,479 crore
in 2009-10 compared to Rs 50,293 crore in 2008-09. But in dollar terms, all months of
2009-10 except July, August and November showed a painful downslide.
Employment Opportunities
Indian Garment Industry is closely connected to the fashion industry and grows hand
in hand. With these even opportunities for the employment is also increasing to a larger
extent. These high levels of fashion consciousness has created the need for candidates
who are highly productive, efficient and have a passion to create new designs and give
way to creativity. This Industry demands and requires both skill and diligence. India is an
ultimate combination, like it has a matured garment industry for a long time along with a
vast trained manpower. Some of the key areas to work are related to design and
manufacturing, merchandising, import export according to the government policies,

Beyond business
"Our vision is to make a qualitative difference to the lives of the weaker sections
of society in proximity to our plants and in doing so improve the human development
index of our nation."
Mrs. Rajashree Birla, Chairperson The Aditya Birla Centre for Community
Initiatives and Rural Development Aditya Birla Centre for Community Initiatives and
Rural Development, the apex body responsible for development project, is spearheaded
by Mrs. Rajashree Birla, who is the Chairperson of the Centre.
The centre is anchored by the Group's Corporate Communications Division,
supported by various company CSR heads and a 250 strong field force. The centre
provides the strategic direction and decides the thrust areas for the Group's work,
ensuring performance and management as well. The work of all the Group companies, in
India and globally is channelised and monitored by the centre. At the Group company,
the business director takes on the role of the project mentor, while the onus for the
implementation of the projects is on the various unit Presidents.
Corporate responsibility philosophy:
Even as we in India have made a mark on the globe as a reservoir of intellectual
capital, as a nation we are grappling with 'quality of life' challenges. More so, in the
hinterland, where poverty is a ground reality. To address these larger issues, we work in
tandem with the government, the district authorities and NGOs.
We believe in the trusteeship concept of management. Simply put, in the context
of social responsibility it entails ploughing part of the profit into programmes, which
results in the larger good of the society. Our legendary leader, Mr. Aditya Birla ingrained
the concept of sustainable livelihood into it in the year 2000; Mr. Kumar Mangalam
Birla, our Chairman, spawned the concept of triple bottom line accountability, which
entails factoring three key aspects viz., economic success, environmental accountability
and social responsibility for ensuring sustainable success. In a holistic way, the interest of
the entire Group's stakeholders has been textured into its fabric.

Each employee‘s input is solicited and valued by his/her management. Employees and management recognize that each employee is involved in running the business. Employee welfare is a term including various services, benefits and facilities offered to employees by the employers. The welfare measures need not be monetary but in any kind/forms. This includes items such as allowances, housing, transportation, medical insurance and food. Employee welfare also includes monitoring of working conditions, creations of industrial harmony through infrastructure for health, industrial relations and insurance against disease, accident and unemployment for the workers and their families. Through such generous benefits the employer makes life worth living for employees.

Page 7 Concept of Employee Involvement and Welfare Measures: Employee involvement & welfare may be viewed as a total concept, as asocial concept and a relative concept. The total concept is a desirable state of existence involving the physical, mental, moral and emotional well-being. These four elements together constitute the structure of involvement & welfare, on which its totality is based. The social concept of welfare implies the welfare of man, his family, his community and also for the organizational development by which without much supervisory of employees on workplace. One of the greatest underlying factors in the success or failure of any organization is the power of its people, and how well that power is focused towards meeting the organization‘s objectives. Modern manufacturing management pursues the goal of a paperless factory, with design concepts moving from an engineering computer – aided – design terminal through data links to a computer – aided – manufacturing terminal, which in turn drives a numerically controlled machine. The above factory automation example notwithstanding, all companies operate on the strengths and weaknesses of their employees. Even in a fully automated factory, employees have to design, maintain, and operate the systems that create output. Organizations that can tap the strengths of their people will be stronger and more competitive than those that cannot. Organizations that regard people as automatons or mere cogs in a wheel will never realize their full potential. In the long run, such companies‘ inefficiencies attract competition, and unless the management philosophy changes, they will disappear. ‗Welfare‘ is a broad concept referring to a state of living of an individual or a group, in a desirable relationship with the total environment-ecological, economic and social. The term ‗welfare‘ includes both the social and economic contents of welfare. The Employee Involvement and welfare occupies a place of significance in the industrial development and economy. It is an important fact of industrial relations, the extra dimension, giving satisfaction to the worker in a way which evens a good wage cannot with the growth of industrialization and mechanization, it has acquired added importance. A happy and committed (and Positive Engaged) workforce is an asset for the industrial prosperity of any Organization.

Page 8 LITERATURE REVIEW Definition: Employee involvement: Employee Involvement is process for empowering employees to participate in managerial decision-making and improvement activities appropriate to their levels in the organization. McGregor’s Theory Y first brought to managers the idea of a participative management style; employee involvement has taken many forms, including the job design approaches and special activities such as quality of work life (QWL) programs. According to Susan M. Healthfield, Human Resources expert Say’s, ―Employee involvement is creating an environment in which people have an impact on decisions and actions that affect their jobs‖. ―Employee involvement is not the goal nor is it a tool, as practiced in many organizations. Rather, it is a management and leadership philosophy about how people are most enabled to contribute to continuous improvement and the ongoing success of their work organization‖. Robert Bullock, Scontrino-Powell ―The direct participation of staff to help an organization fulfil its mission and meet its objectives by applying their own ideas, expertise, and efforts towards solving problems and making decisions‖. Employee or Labour Welfare: The oxford dictionary defines labour welfare as ―efforts to make life worth living for workman‖ chambers dictionary defines welfare as a state of faring or doing well: freedom from calamity, enjoyment of health and prosperity.

Page 9 In the words of R.R.Hopkins, ―welfare is fundamentally an attitude of mind on the part of management, influencing the method by which management activities are undertaken.‖ Obviously the emphasis here is on the ―attitude of mind.‖ The Labour Investigation Committee (1944-46), Includes under labour welfare activities anything done for the intellectual, physical, moral and economical betterment of the workers, whether by employers by government or by other agencies, over and above what is laid down by law or what is normally expected as part of the contractual benefits for which the workers may have bargained.‖ The Report of the committee on Labour welfare (1969), Includes under it ―such services, facilities and amenities as adequate canteens, rest and recreation facilities, sanitary and medical facilities, arrangements for travel to and from work and for the accommodation of workers employed at a distance from their homes, and such other services, amenities and facilities including social security measures as contribute to improve the conditions under which workers are employed.‘ The whole field of welfare is said to be one ―in which much can be done to combat the sense of frustration of the industrial workers, to relieve them of personal and family worries to improve their health, to afford them means of self-expression, to offer them some sphere in which they can excel others and to help them to a wider conception of life.‘‘ It promotes the well-being of workers in a variety of ways. Employee Involvement Model: For people and organizations who desire a model to apply, the best have discovered was developed from work by Tannenbaum and Schmidt (1958) and Sadler (1970). They provide a continuum for leadership and involvement that includes an increasing role for employees and a decreasing role for supervisors in the decision process. The continuum includes this progression. i) Tell: the supervisor makes the decision and announces it to staff. The supervisor provides complete direction. Useful when communicating about safety issues, government regulations, decisions that neither require nor ask for employee input.
  • 10. STUDY ON EMPLOYEE INVOLVEMENT AND WELFARE MEASURES AT ABNL VIJAYA DEGREE COLLEGE, R.V ROAD, BANGALORE – 560004. Page 10 Figure 1.2 ii) Sell: the supervisor makes the decision and then attempts to gain commitment from staff by "selling" the positive aspects of the decision. Useful when employee commitment is needed, but the decision is not open to employee influence iii) Consult: the supervisor invites input into a decision while retaining authority to make the final decision herself. The key to a successful consultation is to inform employees, on the front end of the discussion, that their input is needed, but that the supervisor is retaining the authority to make the final decision. This is the level of involvement that can create employee dissatisfaction most readily when this is not clear to the people providing input iv) Join: the supervisor invites employees to make the decision with the supervisor. The supervisor considers her voice equal in the decision process. The key to a successful join is when the supervisor truly builds consensus around a decision and is willing to keep her influence equal to that of the others providing input. v) Delegate: the supervisor turns the decision over to another party.

Page 11 Outcomes of Employee Involvement Providing opportunities for active participation is beneficial for individuals as well as entire organizations. Applied organizational researchers have identified a myriad of positive outcomes of employee involvement initiatives. The list below shows just how much of an impact that employee participation and voice can have on the performance and well-being of a person, team, department, or entire organization. 1) Improved organizational decision-making capability. (Apostolou, 2000) 2) Improved attitude regarding work. (Leana, Ahlbrandt, & Murrell, 1992) 3) Substantially improved employee well-being. (Freeman & Kleiner, 2005) 4) Reduced costs through elimination of waste and reduced product cycle times. (Apostolou, 2000) 5) Empowerment, job satisfaction, creativity, commitment, and motivation, as well as intent to stay. (Apostolou, 2000; Light, 2004) 6) Increased employee productivity across industries. (Jones, Kalmi, & Kauhanen, 2010) 7) Decrease in staff turnover (Susan M. Healthfield, 2007) 8) Increases More effective communication (Susan M. Healthfield, 2007) How to Get Employee Involvement:- Depending on your background or specialty is developed by Robert Bullock, Scontrino-Powell. You may refer to it as engagement, voice, participation, democracy, etc. No matter what you call it, the concept of employee ―voice‖ has been a topic of consideration for centuries. Even ancient Romans understood the value of having direct participation in matters of business and state. Organizations are still realizing the importance of employee involvement in every type and level of work. So what exactly is employee involvement and how can organizations benefit from it.
  • 12. STUDY ON EMPLOYEE INVOLVEMENT AND WELFARE MEASURES AT ABNL VIJAYA DEGREE COLLEGE, R.V ROAD, BANGALORE – 560004. Page 12 In order for an employee involvement process to be effective, three things need to be present: 1) Employees need to be given the authority to participate in substantive decisions 2) Employees need to have training or experience with appropriate decision-making skills 3) Incentives to participate (either implicit or explicit) must be present Formal interventions usually involve manager and staff training, buy-in and vocal support from the highest levels, and the application of specific measures to increase employee participation. Examples of specific measures include: self-directed/self- managed work teams, problem solving teams, and cross-functional task-forces (to name a few). However, if wants to start encouraging employee involvement in organization right now, following these steps: 1) Give a brief survey to your staff that is made up of open-ended questions that ask for specific improvement ideas, 2) Review every response, 3) Communicate the results with all of your staff, and 4) Create a team to implement the easiest ideas that can have the greatest positive impact (see this chart as an easy template to organize ideas). Here are a couple of survey questions to get you started: ―If you were in charge, what steps would you take to make our organization even better?‖ ―What are two actions we can take to improve our services?‖ Surveys always have a caveat. If you are not ready to act on what your employees tell you, reconsider conducting a survey. Organizations are often better off not asking for employee ideas and/or feedback than asking and not communicating and acting on results.

Page 13 Scope of Welfare Measures: It is somewhat difficult to accurately lay down the scope of labour welfare work, especially because of the fact that labour is composed of dynamic individuals with complex needs. Its scope has been described by writers and institutions of different ways. The scope of labour welfare can be interpreted in different countries, with varying stages of economic development, political outlook and social philosophy. While expressing its interpretation regarding the scope of labour welfare, the ILO has observed: ―the term is one which lends itself of various interpretations and it has not always the same significance in different countries. Sometimes the concept is a very wide one and is more or less synonymous conditions of work as a whole. It may include not only the minimum standard of hygiene and safety laid down in general labour legislation, but also such aspects of working life as social insurance schemes, measures for the protection of women and young workers, limitation of hours of work, and paid vacations. In other cases, the definition is much more limited, and welfare, in addition to general physical working conditions, is mainly concerned with the day-to-day problems of the workers and the social relationships at the place of work. In some countries the use of welfare facilities provided is confined to the workers employed in the undertaking concerned, while in others, the workers‘ families are allowed to share in many of the benefits which are made available.‘‘ As the subject of welfare facilities is a very broad one covering a wide field of amenities and activities, limits cannot be rigidly laid down regarding its scope for all industries and for all times. In the final analysis labour welfare survive should include all extra-mural and intra-mural welfare work, statutory and non-statutory welfare facilities undertaken by the employers, Government, trade unions or voluntary organization and also social security measures which contribute to worker‘ welfare such as industrial health, insurance, provident fund, gratuity, maternity benefits, workmen‘s compensation, retirement benefits, and so on. More specifically, we may examine the ways in which labour welfare is classified in order to obtain a clearer understanding of its scope.

Page 14 Employee or Labour welfare work can be broadly into two categories: i) Statutory, and ii) Non-statutory or voluntary. Statutory measures: This refers to those provisions which are desired from the coercive power of the government and their observance in any industry is binding on the employer by law (factories act of 1948)  canteen facilities(sec46)  working facilities(sec42)  first aid appliances(sec45)  facilities for sitting (sec44)  shelters rest rooms and lunch rooms(sec47)  crèches(sec18)  drinking water facilities(sec18)  lighting(sec19)  urinals(sec19)  spittoons(sec20)  welfare officers (maternity benefit) (sec49)  Provident fund schemes  E.S.I schemes  Family pension schemes  Gratuity

The government enacts certain rules of labour welfare to enforce the minimum standards of health and safety of workers. The employers are required by law to fulfill their statutory obligations on welfare. Every country is increasing gradually its statutory control over labour welfare. Non-statutory welfare measures include all those activities which employers undertake for the welfare of their workers on voluntary basis. There are some social welfare organizations which undertake voluntary welfare work for the benefit of their members.
  • 16. STUDY ON EMPLOYEE INVOLVEMENT AND WELFARE MEASURES AT ABNL VIJAYA DEGREE COLLEGE, R.V ROAD, BANGALORE – 560004. Page 16 Aims and Objectives Employee Welfare: The aim or object of welfare activities is partly humanitarian-to enable workers to enjoy a fuller and richer life-and partly economic- to improve of the workers- and also partly civic-to develop among them a sense of responsibility and dignity and thus make them worthy citizens of the nation. Another object of labour welfare is to fulfil the future needs and aspirations of labour. The following motives and considerations have prompted employers to provide welfare measures: 1) Some of the early philanthropic employers tried to ameliorate the working and living conditions of their workers by providing various welfare measures. 2) Some of them took recourse to welfare work to win over their employees‘ loyalty and to combat trade unionism and socialist ideas. The devotion to welfare work by many American employers during the twenties could be attributed to their anti- unionism. However, such a motive did not succeed in checking the spread of trade unionism. 3) Some employers provided labour welfare services to build up a stable labour force, to reduce labour turnover and absenteeism and to promote better relations. With their employees. 4) At present, labour welfare has been conceived of by some employers as an incentive and good investment to secure, preserve and develop greater efficiency and output from workers. Anyhow, there is no direct relationship between welfare work on the one hand and efficiency and productivity on the other. Apart from this, it is very difficult to quantify the additional contribution of welfare measures to the increased productivity. However, some studies have shown a positive link between labour welfare and productivity. 5) One of the objects for provision of welfare activities in recent times by certain employers is to save themselves from heavy taxes on surplus
  • 17. STUDY ON EMPLOYEE INVOLVEMENT AND WELFARE MEASURES AT ABNL VIJAYA DEGREE COLLEGE, R.V ROAD, BANGALORE – 560004. Page 17 6) The purpose behind provision of welfare amenities by some companies is to enhance their image and to create an atmosphere of goodwill between labour and management and also between management and the public. Principles of Labour or Employee Welfare: The following are some of the principles to be kept in mind for successful implementations of any welfare programme in an organization: 1) The labour welfare activities should pervade the entire hierarchy of an organization. Management should be welfare-oriented at every level. 2) The employer should not bargain labour welfare as a substitute for wages or monetary incentives. In other words, the workers have a right to adequate wages in addition to welfare measures. 3) The employer should look after the welfare of his employees as a matter of social obligation. The constitution of India, in its directive principles of state policy, also emphasizes this aspect of labour welfare. 4) Labour welfare must aim at helping employees to help themselves in the long run. This principle of self-help will enable them to become more responsible and more efficient. 5) There should be proper co-ordination, harmony and integration if all labour welfare services in an undertaking. 6) The labour welfare work of an organization must be administratively viable and essentially development oriented. 7) The management should ensure co-operation and active participation of unions and workers in formulating and implementing labour welfare programmers‘. 8) There should be periodical assessment or evaluation of welfare measures and necessary timely improvements on the basis of feedback.

NEED OF STUDY The 5 M's (management, man, machine, material, methods and money) Out of these resources man power is an asset to the organization. It also called knowledge capital. As the management Guru Peter F.Drucker rightly says "knowledge is the only meaningful resource today" for access to other resources is no longer limited. Capital freely flows across the borders, seeking out the companies that need it. Today the human resources is very demanding and they are look at jobs to test their own knowledge, organization are also realizing the importance of people resources in this liberalized, globalized and privatized economy. Employee involvement and welfare can be statistically proved is directly co related to customer satisfaction. Every organization should determine whether the employees working are satisfied with the facility provided by the organization. This is the need of the labour because satisfied employees will ensure satisfied customers. In order to make them happy, feel satisfied and retain them, organization plan retention strategies. To make this possible one has to determine whether the present employees perceived satisfaction towards the positive involvement and welfare facilities. The survey on employee satisfaction will help the organization to evaluate its return on investment in the important area like Employee involvement and welfare measures.

Page 28 INDUSTRY PROFILE INTRODUCTION The Indian textile industry is one of the largest in the world with a massive raw material and textiles manufacturing base. Our economy is largely dependent on the textile manufacturing and trade in addition to other major industries. About 27% of the foreign exchange earnings are on account of export of textiles and clothing alone. The textiles and clothing sector contributes about 14% to the industrial production and 3% to the gross domestic product of the country. Around 8% of the total excise revenue collection is contributed by the textile industry. So much so, the textile industry accounts for as large as 21% of the total employment generated in the economy. Around 35 million people are directly employed in the textile manufacturing activities. Indirect employment including the manpower engaged in agricultural based raw-material production like cotton and related trade and handling could be stated to be around another 60 million. A textile is the largest single industry in India (and amongst the biggest in the world), accounting for about 20% of the total industrial production. It provides direct employment to around 20 million people. Textile and clothing exports account for one- third of the total value of exports from the country. There are 1,227 textile mills with a spinning capacity of about 29 million spindles. While yarn is mostly produced in the mills, fabrics are produced in the powerloom and handloom sectors as well. The Indian textile industry continues to be predominantly based on cotton, with about 65% of raw materials consumed being cotton. The yearly output of cotton cloth was about 12.8 billion m (about 42 billion ft). The manufacture of jute products (1.1 million metric tons) ranks next in importance to cotton weaving. Textile is one of India‘s oldest industries and has a formidable presence in the national economy inasmuch as it contributes to about 14 per cent of manufacturing value-addition, accounts for around one-third of our gross export earnings and provides gainful employment to millions of people. They include cotton and jute growers, artisans and weavers who are engaged in the organised as well as decentralised and household sectors spread across the entire country.

Page 29 ROLE OF INDIAN TEXTILE INDUSTRY IN THE ECONOMY Textile industry plays a significant role in the economy. The Indian textile industry is one of the largest and most important sectors in the economy in terms of output, foreign exchange earnings and employment in India. It contributes 20 per cent of industrial production, 9 per cent of excise collections, 18 per cent of employment in industrial sector, nearly 20 per cent to the country‘s total export earnings and 4 per cent ton the GDP. The sector employs nearly 35 million people and is the second highest employer in the country. The textile sector also has a direct link with the rural economy and performance of major fibre crops and crafts such as cotton, wool, silk, handicrafts and handlooms, which employ millions of farmers and crafts persons in rural and semi- urban areas. It has been estimated that one out of every six households in the country depends directly or indirectly on this sector. India has several advantages in the textile sector, including abundant availability of raw material and labour. It is the second largest player in the world cotton trade. It has the largest cotton acreage, of about nine million hectares and is the third largest producer of cotton fibre in the world. It ranks fourth in terms of staple fibre production and fourth in polyester yarn production. The textile industry is also labour intensive, thus India has an advantage. GOVERNMENT INITIATIVES With a view to raise India's share in the global textiles trade to 10 per cent by 2015 (from the current 3 per cent), the Ministry of Textiles proposes 50 new textile parks. Out of the 50, 30 have been already sanctioned by the government (with a cost of US$ 710 million). Set up under the Scheme for Integrated Textile Parks (SITP), this initiative will not only make the industry cost competitive, but will also enhance manufacturing capacity in the sector.

Page 30 INDIAN TEXTILE INDUSTRY – SWOT ANALYSIS Strength  India has rich resources of raw materials of textile industry. It is one of the largest producers of cotton in the world and is also rich in resources of fibres like polyester, silk, viscose etc.  India is rich in highly trained manpower. The country has a huge advantage due to lower wage rates. Because of low labor rates the manufacturing cost in textile automatically comes down to very reasonable rates.  India is highly competitive in spinning sector and has presence in almost all processes of the value chain.  Indian garment industry is very diverse in size, manufacturing facility, type of apparel produced, quantity and quality of output, cost, and requirement for fabric etc. It comprises suppliers of ready-made garments for both, domestic or exports markets. Weakness  Knitted garments manufacturing has remained as an extremely fragmented industry. Global players would prefer to source their entire requirement from two or three vendors and the Indian garment units find it difficult to meet the capacity requirements.  Industry still plagued with some historical regulations such as knitted garments still remaining as a SSI domain.  Labour force giving low productivity as compared to other competing countries.  Technology obsolescence despite measures such as TUFS.  Low bargaining power in a customer-ruled market.
  • 31. STUDY ON EMPLOYEE INVOLVEMENT AND WELFARE MEASURES AT ABNL VIJAYA DEGREE COLLEGE, R.V ROAD, BANGALORE – 560004. Page 31  India seriously lacks in trade pact memberships, which leads to restricted access to the other major markets.  Indian labour laws are relatively unfavorable to the trades and there is an urgent need for labour reforms in India. Opportunity  Low per-capita domestic consumption of textile indicating significant potential growth.  Domestic market extremely sensitive to fashion fads and this has resulted in the development of a responsive garment industry.  India's global share is just 3% while China controls about 15%. In post-2005, China is expected to capture 43% of global textile trade.  Companies need to concentrate on new product developments.  Increased use of CAD to develop designing capabilities and for developing greater options. Threats  Competition in post-2005 is not just in exports, but is also likely within the country due to cheaper imports of goods of higher quality at lower costs.  Standards such as SA-8000 or WARP have resulted in increased pressure on companies for improvement of their working practices.  Alternative competitive advantages would continue to be a barrier.

The centre is anchored by the Group's Corporate Communications Division, supported by various company CSR heads and a 250 strong field force. The centre provides the strategic direction and decides the thrust areas for the Group's work, ensuring performance and management as well. The work of all the Group companies, in India and globally is channelised and monitored by the centre. At the Group company, the business director takes on the role of the project mentor, while the onus for the implementation of the projects is on the various unit Presidents. Corporate responsibility philosophy: Even as we in India have made a mark on the globe as a reservoir of intellectual capital, as a nation we are grappling with 'quality of life' challenges. More so, in the hinterland, where poverty is a ground reality. To address these larger issues, we work in tandem with the government, the district authorities and NGOs. We believe in the trusteeship concept of management. Simply put, in the context of social responsibility it entails ploughing part of the profit into programmes, which results in the larger good of the society. Our legendary leader, Mr. Aditya Birla ingrained the concept of sustainable livelihood into it in the year 2000; Mr. Kumar Mangalam Birla, our Chairman, spawned the concept of triple bottom line accountability, which entails factoring three key aspects viz., economic success, environmental accountability and social responsibility for ensuring sustainable success. In a holistic way, the interest of the entire Group's stakeholders has been textured into its fabric.
