Dear All,

Could anyone please help me by providing some ideas on what topics should be covered in HR for a manufacturing unit if the company wants a complete solution to all its day-to-day HR practices? I am in the field of marketing, but as I have completed my MBA in HR and Marketing (Batch 2010-12), I have been tasked with creating an outline and, ultimately, a PowerPoint presentation on the topics that should be covered for a manufacturing concern related to Human Resources.

I would appreciate any assistance on this matter. Please suggest any ideas or provide me with a list of topics on HR for a large manufacturing firm.

Thank you,

Dear Smita,

From your query, I understood that you want to give a presentation on the HR processes in a manufacturing industry. You can categorize them into four categories:

A. HR and Development
B. Administration
C. Welfare
D. Industrial Relations

The main processes are as follows:

1. Manpower Planning
2. Recruitment & Selection
3. Training and Development
4. Performance Management and rewards
5. Regular interaction with employees to create and maintain a positive environment
6. Salary and wage administration
7. Liaison with Labour Dept., Factories Dept., PF Dept., ESIC Dept., and other related departments
8. Employee Welfare administration
9. Employee Engagement Activities
10. Time Office administration
11. Maintaining Overall Housekeeping of the plant
12. Managing contractual manpower
13. Company Guest House/Pantry/Canteen Administration
14. Security Administration
15. Complying with statutory provisions under different Labour Laws

Ramesh has given you some sound tips. Hence, let me ask you a few questions. These questions may help other bloggers to give complete information before raising a question, to help experts give precise advice.

Who has asked you to give a presentation?
How large is the company that needs these services?

For better advice, can you clarify whether all you have to do is to give a simple academic presentation only or if you have to study the unit and suggest solutions? If it is a simple academic presentation, then the suggestion given by Mr. Ramesh in post #2 above will suffice. If it is not, then you have to provide further details.

Hello, Sir,

I appreciate your suggestion. I am an MBA of the 2010-12 batch, and I have been placed in a software company with the designation of Executive - Marketing. However, as I have studied both HR and Marketing during my MBA, my roles sometimes extend into the HR field.

During my MBA in HR, I covered subjects such as HRP, HRD, Industrial Relations (IR), and Cross-Cultural & Global HRM (CCGH). Since the company does not have international operations, I believe CCGH may not be applicable, and the company may not need software for handling grievances and complaints from its Trade Union. Therefore, IR may not be relevant, in my opinion.

Please provide me with necessary suggestions and guidance on this matter.

Thank you,
Smita

Dear Smita,

I am not an HR expert. However, when bloggers do not provide enough background information, I address this by asking questions. Offering detailed background information from the beginning can help save bloggers time by enabling them to provide precise answers.

You have to make it fit into the time given. Though the topics already suggested cover almost all facets of HR, you can modify it taking into account the time constraint and the nature of the organization [software company].

A software company may be more interested in topics such as manpower forecasting, manpower planning, retention/turnover of employees, compensation management (including incentives), legal compliances, training, etc. You may lay emphasis on these topics. Wish you all the best!

Dear Sir,

I have gone through all your points. The company to which we are going to provide a complete HR solution has no international operations.

One other thing, you have mentioned that Industrial Relations will be covered. In IR, the role of Trade Union is an important aspect. Will their Management want to make a software regarding their Trade Union?

Will IR come under the solution we want to provide?

Again, please provide me with necessary subtopics under each main topic you have described in your reply.

Like HRP, Recruitment & Selection, Training & Development, Performance Appraisal & Rewards, Salary wage admin, Employee Welfare Admin, Employee Engagement Activities, Overall Housekeeping of the plant, Contractual Manpower Management, Security Admin, Statutory Provision under different Labour Laws, etc.

And what topics will come under Company Guest house/Pantry/Canteen Admin?

Please provide me with necessary subtopics for all the above I mentioned. I think you have worked in a plant. I have only studied theoretical aspects of HRP, HRD, and IR.

Other topics you have described like Employee engagement activities, Security admin, Overall housekeeping, Pantry/Canteen admin etc., those were not in my syllabi.

Our main purpose is to provide that company a complete HR Software solution. So for that Primarily, we have to make an Outline first, which topics can come with respect to a Manufacturing Unit that has only national operations.

Our Company converts Concepts into software solutions.

For that, I first need a good sound outline consisting not only the main points but also the subtopics under those.

Please review this query once more and what answers you have given me previously if any other main Process will be covered within that or only Subtopics will be covered under each Main Process.

I found your suggestion trustworthy. Please once more review my query and please reply.

Thanks for helping me out!
