Hi All,
I'm working with an FMCG Co. in NCR region. We are a plant with 200 plus workmen and 35 management staff. We have been facing the problem of attrition in management since last two years . Its a concern given the small size of the mangement staff that we have. To make our plant a better place to work we want to move from 6 days in a week to 5 days in a week for only the management staff only.This would mean that management staff would get sat & sun day off.
Can anybody share any similar experiences and watchouts while moving on to this new model..[/code]

Wonderful Thought,,,,
Saturday productivity will be less when compared with cost incurred,,,,
In fact the same thing i applied in my organisation 3 years... It was a ultimate success..
You have to do a thorough analysis.......
Work Hours weekly you have to calculate,,,
Productivity you hav to calculate,,,
You can give 50 Hours working in a week as package with 6-8 hours minimum a day or 45 - 50 hours...
Team Motivation can be done as giving bonus to people who acheive the requred number of working hours..
Team can go on picnic if they acheive the package of works given. the minimum period is 12 weeks,,,

Hi,
I am also looking into the feasibility of implementing such a 6-day to 5-day switch in our organization. Ours is a 24/7 IT/ITES company working in 3 shifts.
I was wondering where I can get information regarding the mandatory requirements of leaves(Medical/Sick Leaves, Casual Leaves, Privilege Leave/Vacations etc) in an year. I did go to the state government site, where the labor policy is mentioned, but wanted to be sure if there is any other special provisions or laws to be considered by other authorities, like STPI, National Government , or if there is a specific IT/ITES labour policy etc. Would be a great help to know what all the relevant laws/regulations are.
Regards
Chacko


We are looking at minimizing the impact on the bottomline of the organization while everybody in the organization gets 2 days off in a week.
Till now we were running on a fixed leave policy. Now we are thinking of a experienced based leaves increment policy. Also, we are looking into a dedicated training day during the probation in every week, efficiency improvement practices, also looking into PCMM.
We have done a simulation of the schedule on a spreadsheet for a couple of months to see where the contingencies might occur etc. The team size in our organization is varied and this is one of the challenges we are facing - to arrange enough resources so as to make sure there is business continuity even in case of crisis. For this we are trying to get the cross-functional working easier.
