Determination of Service Indicators for Service Departments
PREFACE: Human Resources play a vital role in shaping a healthy and growing organization. Without doubt, human resources development has hence been aptly described as the “soul” of a vibrant and dynamic organization. The increasing complexity and problems of managing human resources places heavy demands on ensuring equal emphasis on all the sub-systems which play a crucial part in ensuring holistic development of the human resources. Human Resources Management has gained immense importance in today’s environment of global competition to meet future challenges in the new millennium. In these days of rapid advancement in Information Technology and Techno-Commercial aspects of business, it would be eventually the “Man behind the Machine” who would determine which way/ direction an organization goes. Human Resources Development systems have an important task in achieving the required dynamics to enable any organization to perform at its peak. The right recruitment and selection to start with, progressive training and development thereafter, and, a fair performance appraisal system gives an impetus to professional and proficient management of HR. There is yet another dimension of HRM which is directly related to, and falls within the ambit of organizational development that deserves major attention because the “character & culture” of an organization is formed by HR of the organization and that will finally decide the future of the organization. After said all this, it is imperative to consolidate on the available human potential and check HR wastages to ensure organizational effectiveness as it has become a key to sustain excellence and achieve competitive advantage over others. This project study is on “DETERMINATION OF SERVICE INDICATORS FOR SERVICE DEPARTMENTS” thus assumes an even greater relevance in the existing changing business scenario especially so when there is a paradigm shift in the Organizations’ approach towards Human Resources Management in outlining specific roles. Without defining HR vision, roles & objectives, an organization would jeopardize its growth and survival
Determination of Service Indicators for Service Departments therefore it is all the more necessary to indigenize the HR sub-systems for ones own benefit after a close microscopic scrutiny. It has been my best and sincere effort to collect information from as many departments and sections as possible in the given time period, to maximize the viability of the results. Though the time limit was short but I have tried my level best to do justice. Any errors and omissions that might have occurred are totally unintentional and unfortunate. I shall always be obliged to everybody whoever put his/her valuable comments on this report.

Determination of Service Indicators for Service Departments
CONCLUSION In our project” Determination of Service Indicators for Service Departments”, We have finalised the service indicators for all the service departments of Hindalco Industries limited. Today is the buyers market. In the world of globalisation, by ensuring merely the customer satisfaction, the organisation can survive but it cannot flourish and compete with the competitors. For that, it is important to move from customer satisfaction to customer delight and ultimately to customer obsession, only then the organisation can rule the market. There are both external and internal customers whose attitudes, opinions and behaviour affect the organisation’s day-to-day success: External customers- external customers exist outside the organisation. This type that comes to mind are “end-use” customers, the ones who use or consume the product or services of the organisation for their own purposes or production. Internal customers- employees of the organisation for whom the service departments provide product, services or servicing. Stakeholders- are those whose interests are linked with the organisation. It includes employees, stockholders, community leaders . If the internal customers are satisfied, then only it is possible to attract and retain the external customers. Service indicators are basically framed to ensure the satisfaction of internal customers and developing the culture where the organisation can ensure the best
Quality of services provided by the service departments to the employees. This will not only give rise to a healthy work culture in the organisation but will also ensure the increase in productivity.
Determination of Service Indicators for Service Departments
Some of the advantages of ensuring the quality of service are: 1. This will help in providing the reliable service by the service departments to the employees dependably and accurately. 2. This will inculcate the feeling of responsiveness and willingness to help employees and provide best services to them. 3. This will give assurance to the employees by the service departments in following manners: • Competency: possessing the required skills and knowledge. • Courtesy: politeness, respect, consideration, and friendliness with the employees. • Credibility: trustworthiness, believlity, and honesty of the service departments. • Security: freedom from danger, risk and doubt. 4. This will give the knowledge about expectations of the employees to the service departments in: • Accessibility: the manner the service departments approach their customers. • Communication skills: keeping employees informed in language they can understand and listening to their response and questions. • Understanding the customers: taking the effort to get to know the employees and their particular needs.
