Introduction of Study

Rationale of the Study

Employees objective is to satisfy customers. So they always try to satisfy customer through
their work and service. So for providing better customer service to secure smooth banking,
Standard Chartered Bank recruits qualified employees. So I want to know about employees
involvement with the job and employers contribution to employee.
The main intention of this study is to show how the HR practiced in a service providing
organization and to assess employees perception towards management policy and on their
jobs. By observing the process I get the opportunity to understand the extent of employees job
satisfaction and to oversee the present market requirements and factors which are being
considered in HR practices, level of job satisfaction and employees psychological contract with
the organization.

1.2 Statement of the Problems


Employees are working hard to satisfy customers and they are qualified for the banking
service. So I would like to know whether they are satisfied with HR practices and what are the
HR practices on Standard Chartered Bank in Bangladesh? And what is their perception on
management?

1.3 Scope of the Study


Standard Chartered Bank is a multinational Bank and it plays a significant role in the economic
development through their better service. As an intern I got the opportunity to work for this
giant Organization. I am placed at the customer service and relation section under the
consumer banking division of Standard Chartered Bank at Sheraton Branch. I got an enabling
environment and opportunity to observe the overall Services and employees involvement in
customer service. I am, in addition, getting the scope to interact with customers and reveal their
expectations. For customer satisfaction in branch level employees work hard and they are
qualified to satisfy customer needs. So I prepared this report on HR practices of Standard
Chartered Bank which is linked with Organizations strategy and to know about employees
12

relationship with organization. I conduct a survey on Job satisfaction and Employees


psychological contract with the Organization. The scope of this report is to have an overall
idea of its human resource practices, its position in the industry, and to know about job
satisfaction with employees psychological contract with organization. From this report we can
generate idea about Recruitment system, Performance management, Training and Development
Process, Job Analysis, Compensation and Benefits, Employee grievances and dispute
resolution process, Job satisfaction, Employees Physiological Contract of financial service
providing organization.

1.4 Delimitation of the Study


The scope of this report to have an idea of HR practices being undertaken by Standard
Chartered Bank. Based on the management policy of the organization, this study will deal with
the HR activities. This is conducted through interviewing personnel. The delimitation of the
report is that the information is confidential and quite difficult to get from HR department.
The employees of Sheraton Branch and Chawkbazar Branch of Standard Chartered Bank are
involved in survey sessions. Survey conducted on Branch Manager, Personal Financial
Consultant, Sales Team Manager, Customer Service Officer, Branch Risk Manager, Asset
Center officer, Customer Service Manager, Customer Service Executive, and Branch Sales
Executives. They are representatives of other employees who worked in other branches.
Because my survey only focus on branch level employees who are directly linked with
customer services. Branches are all identical and are working with a group of staff of same
status, rank and qualifications; plus the nature and type of services are same in all the branches.
So if a branch is studied, it will give a representative sample of knowing the objectives.
Because of the heavy workloads, employees are not accessible to interview them in other
branches, but for advantage of my attachment with the branches I found an opportunity to
interact with them individually and in details. However, relevant HR related information
collected from Managers and Employees of the Branch.

3.3 Job Analysis


An organizations mission statement presents the guiding rationale for the activities of all subunits and employees. To attain the strategic and operational goals, it is necessary to develop
short-run production and operational budgets, as well as to specify the division of labor,
commonly referred to as partitioning the work process into manageable units called jobs. A job
can be defined as a grouping of related duties, tasks and behaviors performed by one or more
individuals, namely jobholders. Each job has one or more positions in other words, the
number of individuals who are performing the duties required by that specific job. The analysis
of subdivided work in the organization, both at the level of the individual job and for the entire
flow of the production process, is referred to as job analysis.

Standard Chartered Bank also follows job analysis. They define job analysis as an examination
of the jobs in an organization with a view to documenting the knowledge, skills, abilities and
others (KSAOs, e.g. experience) associated with successful performance of those jobs. They
collect job analysis information through job description method. The written outcomes of the
process are referred to as job description and it is being prepared by the department head and
HR department. The bank emphasizes more on the duties and tasks which needs to be carried
out in the job. In case of Standard Chartered Bank there are two reasons of following the job
analysis. One reason is that it is suitable for the organization and another reason is tradition.
The process of job analysis of Standard Chartered Bank involves the following three steps to
maximize the potential for success.

Individual interview method:

To gather information about a job, sometimes they interview job incumbents, as well as coworkers, supervisors, suppliers, clients and subordinates.

Observation method:

Sometimes the job analysts observe directly and sometimes indirectly based on the
requirements. For direct observation job analysts are needed to stay on the spot and for indirect
observation videotaped can be used.

39

Structured questionnaire method:


The bank also use questionnaires for job analysis and some of the more frequently used
instruments include:
1. The position description questionnaire.
2. The functional job analysis.
3. The job diagnostic survey.

109

3.10.1 Employee relations


Standard Chartered Bank is committed to creating, sustaining and reinforcing a high
performance culture in accordance with the Banks strategic intent to be the best international
bank.
The basic principles which will guide our approach in employee relations are:
o

Managerial prerogatives for recruitment, talent management, performance management

and discipline are non-negotiable.


o

Organization will follow the legal standards and regulations in the countries that we

operate in.
o

Organization will encourage a performance culture designed to recognize individual

performance. Superior performance will be rewarded differentially.


o

Organization will focus on driving employee engagement at all levels thus creating an

environment which encourages open two-way communication.

3.10. 2 Employee Engagement


Employee engagement is centered on creating a working environment where employees can
apply their individual talents; one, which builds psychological, cognitive and emotional
commitment to the mutual benefit of the Bank and its stakeholders.
Process:
o

Annually the Bank will administer an employee engagement survey to establish

progress towards increased employee engagement within the Bank and to primarily identify
areas that need team attention to create a high performance culture.
o

All permanent staff on the Banks payroll will be invited to participate on a voluntary

basis
o

Each team with more than five (5) direct reportees will receive a team scorecard

detailing the engagement level of the unit. The line manager has the responsibility to discuss
the scorecard with their staff to agree key actions if carried out jointly, would increase the
engagement of team.
o

Country presentations will be provided to highlight any key people management issues

that need to be addressed at the country and global level.


110

Following this discussion, the teams create action plans, with various staff members

having responsibility to follow through on specific action plans.


o

Line managers have overall accountability to improve how they manage their staff.

This will be stated as an explicit objective within their annual objectives and will be discussed
as part of the annual performance management system. Managers will be held accountable for
follow through on their employee engagement action plans.
o

Driving an increase in employee engagement is the responsibility of the line manager.

HR partners with the manager to train them in the tools utilized (scorecards) and in acting as a
conduit to migrate best practice to assist in increasing the overall employee engagement.
Standard Chartered Bank believes that teams that are highly engaged create sustainable high
performance.

3.10. 3

Employee Discipline

Employees discipline will help Employees achieve and maintain high standards of conduct,
engagement, morale and performance and minimize the risk of litigation.
Minor conduct or performance issues should normally be dealt with informally between
Employees and their Managers as part of a performance improvement process, without
reference to formal disciplinary procedures.
Formal disciplinary process is required; line Managers must consult with Human Resources
before instigating the formal disciplinary procedures or taking formal disciplinary action.
Depending on the circumstances of the case, a fact finding investigation may be required
before a disciplinary hearing is held.
The Employee should be notified in writing of the specific performance or conduct issues, the
date on which any disciplinary hearing will take place and a summary of the reasons for the
hearing. The Employee should also be provided with copies of any relevant evidence,
including a summary of any investigation findings.
The Employee must receive reasonable notice of the disciplinary hearing and all
communications and the hearing itself must be conducted in a language which the Employee
understands.

111

The Employee should have the right to present and discuss evidence and state his or her case at
any disciplinary hearing.
The Employee should have the right to be accompanied by a work colleague (or other
representative if specifically permitted under local law) at any disciplinary hearing.
The Employee should have the right and opportunity to make a single appeal against the
decision made at or following a disciplinary meeting. This appeal must be made in writing and
should normally be made to a more senior manager or other appropriate person who has not
previously been involved in the disciplinary process.
The choice of disciplinary sanction will depend on the circumstances and severity of the
performance or conduct issue. The principal sanctions are likely to be a formal verbal warning
(recorded), a first written warning, a final written warning or dismissal.
Warnings must set out details of the complaint, the improvement required of the Employee, the
timescale within which the improvement must be made and the consequences of nonimprovement.
In most circumstances, subject to satisfactory improvements in performance or conduct,
warnings will expire six months from the date of issue after which they will be of no relevance
to future disciplinary action. However, final written warnings will expire after a year or, in
exceptional circumstances, may remain live for a longer period.
Dismissal is likely to be the disciplinary sanction imposed following the disciplinary process,
where there have been findings of:
o

Gross Misconduct and Gross Incompetence.

Employees poor conduct or performance.

Employees conduct or performance fails to improve to the prescribed standards after the
issuance of disciplinary warnings
Gross Misconduct and Gross Incompetence may warrant summary dismissal (without notice or
payment in lieu of notice), or otherwise suspension (with pay) pending inquiry or discharge.
Employee is dismissed; he or she should be given written reasons for dismissal and informed
of the date on which employment will terminate and his or her right of appeal.
Standard Chartered Bank will not re-employ an Employee whose contract has been terminated
for disciplinary reasons unless required to do so by law.

112

3.10. 4 Grievance process


This process aimed at encouraging open and honest communication. This will increase the
likelihood that Employee concerns can be resolved quickly and internally, with a view to
encouraging high Staff morale and engagement and decreased Staff attrition, and avoiding
legal claims. The process encompasses any employment-related concerns and problems which
may affect an individual Employee personally and directly.
Grievances or disputes arising in connection with work must be resolved as near to the point of
origin as possible and appropriate.
For matters of a potentially serious nature, management must consult Human Resources before
taking any steps. An Employee must then be asked to set out the precise nature of his or her
grievances in writing. The Employee must be invited to present his or her case at a formal
meeting. The Employee must be advised of the outcome of the meeting and of his or her right
to make one appeal against the Groups decision relating to the Grievance. In the event of any
appeal, the Employee must be invited to an appeal meeting which must be held by a more
senior manager or other appropriate person. The decision at the appeal will be final. All
communications and invitations to meetings made to the Employee must be in writing.
Employees must make all reasonable attempts to attend meetings referred to at 3 above. Each
stage of the Grievance or dispute procedure must be addressed within a reasonable timescale.
The Employee will be informed of any circumstances which prevent this.
The Group will endeavor to maintain confidentiality in respect of all concerns raised where
possible and appropriate. If agreed by the Employee and the Group, external advice and
assistance may be sought during a grievance process.
If the Employees Complaint relates to his or her immediate manager, the investigation must be
carried out by a more senior manager. The process must be managed in a language that the
Employee understands The Process must be formally recorded. A documentary record must be
made of all formal hearings, which must be agreed and signed by all parties.

may lead to disciplinary action, which may include summary dismissal. Supervisors and Line
Managers must take timely and appropriate action when the individual concerned reports
harassment or bullying to them. The Bank will seek to ensure that the complainant is not
penalized whether directly or indirectly for raising a complaint unless that complaint is
unfounded and not made in good faith, e.g. it is a malicious complaint. Making false
allegations of harassment or bullying or providing false information with regard to alleged
harassment will lead to disciplinary action. All employees should understand the Banks
position on harassment and bullying and take personal responsibility for dignified relationships
at work.

3.10.6 Dispute -Resolution


Employees may have problems or concerns relating to their employment that they wish to raise
and have resolved. Every effort should be made to resolve any problems through informal
discussion between manager and the employee. Where these issues cannot be resolved
informally, the grievance process provides a formal framework for these to be dealt with fairly
and quickly. The underlying principles are:
o

The Bank will endeavor to settle grievances or any other disputes arising in connection

with work as early and as near to the point of origin as possible.

Suggestions

Suggestions
I had the practical exposure to/in Standard Chartered Bank for just four months, with my
limited experience in the Bank in comparison with vast and complex banking system; it is not
so easy to recommend some suggestions to enhance the performance level of the organization.
Depending on the observation of some shortcomings regarding the selection process and other
aspects of Standard Chartered Banks recruitment and selection process, the following
recommendations are presentedo

Standard Chartered Bank put a very low preference on external hiring. Thats why

many talented and extraordinary candidates are not getting the chance to prove their worth for
not being appointed, thus limiting the bank of its scope of getting new, but potential candidates
to be inducted in the system. It has been observed that the bank prefer strong references as one
of the criteria for recruitment that might be reviewed by the bank.
o

The bank usually doesnt publish job advertisements in newspapers (based on

interview) where a large portion of applicants are used to see job vacancies in newspapers. To
avoid receiving a big junk of applicants and to ensure receiving best suited applicants, the bank
should at least focus on circulating vacancy notices to its branches and other relevant sources
of its choice.
o

Organization should confirm and regularize appointments on contractual posts. Certain

criteria can set for creating opportunities for contractual staff to be screened and short-listed for
certain probable positions. The contracted firm/individuals should be provided with parameters
of performance of the contractual staff to bring to the regular staff.
o

The bank might consider initiating a process of evaluating potentials of the Interns

being placed each to the bank for future possible recruitment on availability. This may help the
bank to find candidates who at least familiar with the banks work procedures and this will
eventually create banks positive image in the society.
o

The bank values the efficiency of its staff and to encourage improving individual staffs

efficiency, the bank ensures a leaning environment within its operational system which can
followed by other financial intuitions.

Conclusions

156

Conclusion
Banking is becoming more vital for economic development of Bangladesh in mobilizing
capital and other resources. Standard Chartered Bank is also extending such contributions to
the advancement of the socioeconomic condition of the country. Standard Chartered Bank is
committed to provide quality services, maintain corporate governance & support international
business as a continuation of excellence in performance since its incorporation. They are fully
committed to conduct its business activities in economically, environmentally & socially
sustainable manner. The Bank has ensured hygienic & convenient work environment for its
employees. Standard Chartered Bank respects the worth & dignity of each employee.

HR programs and policies are integrated within a larger framework facilitating, in general, the
organizations mission and specifically its objectives. Standard Chartered has a good HR
policy. They believe that ensuring a right people in a right place at the right time can produce
the optimum output. So, they put and practice the great importance to ensure that they have the
right people with required skills and knowledge. They also revise the recruitment policy
thoroughly based on the demand. They have some uniqueness in their selection process but
they are very much careful and concerned for hiring employees from outside. Also they strictly
verify the references before hiring anybody because it is given that an organizations
performance is a direct to the individuals it employs, the specific strategies used and decisions
made in the staffing process will directly impact an organizations success or lack thereof.
Today Standard Chartered Bank is leading the Banking sector and the employees are the
leaders who are assigned through a good recruitment system and other HR activities. Not only
recruiting system this organization encouraged employees through compensation packages and
career development and most of the employees are satisfied with this organization and its
culture and this organization follows discipline to maintain employee relationship and to create
