:: OVERVIEW OF WORLD
MARKET ::
After the exclusion of global quota scheme, the textile industry is
flourishing at high speed. The world is on a new corridor of industrial
revolution. Analysts are anticipating more expansion with latest
technologies in Textile Machineries.
The Chinese textile manufacturers are developing some of the best
answers in technical aspects of textile industry, along with very
competitive prices.
Indian textile machinery industry is more than 50 years old and the
industry is increasing day by day. About 750 machinery and equipment
manufacturing units are in India, of which over 250 units produce
complete machines, and the rest produce parts and accessories.

:: OVERVIEW OF INDIAN
MARKET ::
Indias textiles sector is one of the oldest industries in Indian
economy dating back several centuries. Even today, textiles sector is
one of the largest contributors to Indias exports with approximately
11 per cent of total exports. The textiles industry is also labour
intensive and is one of the largest employers.
The Indian textiles industry, currently estimated at around US$
108 billion, is expected to reach US$ 223 billion by 2021. The
industry is the second largest employer after agriculture, providing
employment to over 45 million people directly and 60 million people
indirectly. The Indian Textile Industry contributes approximately 5
per cent to Indias gross domestic product (GDP), and 14 per cent to
overall Index of Industrial Production (IIP).

::OVERVIEW OF
COMPANY ::
The future strategy of Indian Rayon involves the expansion of
three core businesses -viscose filament yarn, insulators and
carbon black. Apart from this, the company also decided to pre
pay debt worth Rs 200 cr by the end of May '99.
After the de-merger, the group's vision has been to transform
Indian Rayon into rayon major with growth driven by
consolidation. The de-merger of the cement division, the major
business of Indian Rayon, has changed the valuations of Indian
Rayon drastically.
To strengthen its position further, the company has recently
entered into a deal to acquire Madura Garments, the ready made
garments division of Madura Coats.

:: GROWTH OF
COMPANY ::
Indian Rayon and Industries Ltd. The Company
successfully completed the cement de-merger process
initiated during 1998-99. To further enhance shareholder
value, the Company chartered several strategic moves viz.,
pre-payment of debt, completion of a share buyback, exiting
Sea Water Magnesia business and acquisition of the garments
business.
Pre-tax profits were lower at Rs.58.6 Crores. As a result of
this and an extra-ordinary and non-recurring charge
associated with the exiting of the Sea Water Magnesia
business, the Company reported a net loss of Rs.241.2 Crores
for 1999-2000.

:: LITERATURE REVIEW ::
Meera Singh (2014), conducted a survey titled Impact of health &
safety provisions under Factories Act, 1948 for protection of Labour
rights in Real Estate Industry of Pune. The questionnaire method
was used to collect the information from 160 labours from different
construction sites of residential and commercial complexes in Pune.
Yes raja M& Devi N (2013) undertook a research with an
objective to find the effectiveness and satisfaction level of
employees in textile INDUSTRIES Dairy Division. The universe
of the study was the employees of the organization; 60 employees
were drawn through proportionate stratified random sampling from
the population of 150 employees.

:: BACKGROUND OF
STUDY ::
Workers participation in management is an essential
ingredient of Industrial democracy. The concept of workers
participation in management is based on Human Relations
approach to Management which brought about a new set of
values to labour and management. Traditionally the concept
of Workers Participation in Management (WPM) refers to
participation of non-managerial employees in the decisionmaking process of the organization. Workers participation in
management implies mental and emotional involvement of
workers in the management of Enterprise.

:: PROBLEM OF STUDY::
Here the company is production in nature so their main focus is
more on the production and more on profit to its member as well as
society but main concern is the competition prevailing in the
market. If they want to sustain in this market they have to consider
profit element too. In case of this company I studied their humane
resource information and try to know that how they are functioning.
The main problem of our study is:
Workers Participation in Management in Indian Rayon Pvt
Ltd.

:: OBJECTIVES ::
To determine factors which aid or hinder the observed level of
participation
.
To create relationship between management and worker

To raise level of motivation of workers by closer involvement.

To provide opportunity for expression and to provide a sense of

importance to workers.

To develop ties of understanding leading to better effort and

harmony.

:: HYPOTHESIS ::

management can resolve industrial disputes and
increasing production simultaneously?

H0:
50% of workers agree that participative
management to resolve industrial disputes and
increasing production simultaneously.

H1:
More than 50% of workers agree that participative
management to resolve industrial disputes and
increasing production simultaneously.

Suggestion
Impart

motivation to employees in his workplace; give salary as per norm

of government, incentive, bounce etc.

Involve

in function, party, meeting and give information all events properly.

Employees

have any personal matter and problem so company provide help

as much as possible.

employees

opinion, thought, idea, solution are listen and analyse than after
take decision means follows the management by objective.

Give

opportunity to employees to expose their skills, knowledge, ability in

workplace and meetings.

Finding
In

Indian rayon provide compensation to their

employees when employees are face injuries because
of negligence of company.

Indian

rayon mainly emphases on pollution so that

company saw tree in outside the company ground.

Indian rayon offers their employees protective uniform

when employees work at dangerous place and fence
surrounding the machines.

Indian

rayon also adopts the policy of incentive

(financial & non-financial) to their employees so that
employees get motivation out of it.

Limitation
Inappropriate

response from respondent

In

this study we take limited sample size from the population

so; the finding is based on that only.

For

this project, the time taken about 2-3 months, with study
period which is not enough.

Sometime

respondent do not reply with whole heartily, which

will give misguided result.

Illiterate

people cannot give reply to us, so we have to deal

only with literate people, so illiterate people are excluded.

CONCLUSION
Concluding

my comprehensive project, I learn a lot

of new things. Now I knowthat how the theoretically
aspects are applied in the industries. Indian rayon
main strength is their workers coordination with
higher level staff. Hence, at the end we can say
Indian rayon is fast growing company specially at
national level and future of company is quite
bright. that company are employee as well as
customer all possible need are satisfied. that are
aditya birla one most important branch and that
company give possible result in birla group. that
company future time lot off plan is establish and
prepare project. so the many personnel are give
the service and employment.
