================================================== ============
2.NATIONAL & FESTIVAL HOLIDAYS Act – DUSSEHRA, DIVALI - OPTIONAL HOLIDAYS:
=============================================
As the New Year (January,2019) is fast approaching and the HOLIDAYS LIST-2019 is to be filed with L.I., F.I., before end-Dec.2018, HRDept. will be busy in making HOLIDAYS LIST-2019, the following points may be considered for the benefit to the Company's P&A works.

Some Cos. declared 11 to 15 days Holidays for National & Festival Holidays in 2018 including the 5 National Holidays (COMPULSORY) as per the Karnataka Holidays (N&F) Act, 1963.
Further, the remaining days are also declared as COMPULSORY Holidays; due to which; all employees have to observe all Festival Holidays though some donot want to but; he has no option since the Co.has declared it COMPULSORY. Whereas; he has to apply for leave to observe any of the following Festivals which he/his family wants to celebrate or to go to his/family place; since Co. has not included them in the Declared Festival Holidays.
New Year Day Makara Sankranti Maha Shivarathri , Good Friday,
Ayudha Pooja, Naraka Chaturdasi , Eid Milad etc.,
Hence, you can declare 5 National Holidays COMPULSORY + some imp.Festivals like
Ugadi, Diwali, Ganesh Chaturthi etc.,
so that; the employees will have an option to take other Festivals (mentioned above) which he/his family wants to celebrate or plan to go to his place with family etc.for which; he need not apply for leave.
Adoption of OPTIONAL HOLIDAYS will help HODs to plan, deploy MP for Essential Services & grant Holidays to needy employees in a staggered manner without increasing the No.of Declared Holidays. It will also enable the employees to celebrate the Festivals he / his family wants to & thus; increase the Morale of the employees.
BENEFIT TO THE COMPANY: Some HODs face Manpower (MP) Shortages to man Essential Services during Festivals like Dusserha, Divali when 3-4 Holidays come at a time. OPTIONAL HOLIDAYS will help Continuous Working of Essential Services(like Prodn., O&M, Utility, IT,HR&A, Transport, Canteen, OHC (which require un-interrupted Works) to ensure Min.MP to man Essential Services as most empl’s don’t observe all Festivals at 1 time & so, when 1 set of empl’s take Holiday, other set can work & vise-versa. Thus, HODs can plan min.MP for Shift duty/ maintain Essential Services by adjusting MP to suit his needs & avoid work-stoppage, OT etc. due to Holidays (without increasing Declared Holidays or violating N&F Holidays Act).
To Control, keep track of Optional Holidays, U have to adopt Leave Card System to record the Optional Holidays availed by the empls.in different Depts/Shifts, locations; and to ensure that empl. take only the Permitted No.of Optional Festival Holidays.
Karnataka Govt.released Holidays List for 2019.
HOLIDAYS LIST - 2019 is prepared with OPTIONAL HOLIDAYS. If you have not yet finalised; Pl. contact.
3. LEAVE CARD (L.C) VS. LEAVE APPN. (L.A.) FORM:
========================================
Some Companies are still using loose Leave Appn.Form for taking of Leave instead of adopting Leave Card System. As the present Leave Appn. is loose & 100s of such Appns. comes to HR Dept., Seniors cannot Check, keep track, compile or tally with Biometric data as can be checked with Single Leave Card. In case of discrepancy; or complaint, checking of old L.A. is difficult; will delay Salary Processing etc., Since some employees will take 2-3 times leave in a month, Co. has to Print 1000s of copies of L.A. every time as against Printing of 1 Leave Card for 1 employee per year. Also; many L.A.,are zeroxed due to urgency; increasing the cost. L.C. Saves printing & zerox Cost where lot of empl’s. Work.
Many HODs can’t check 100s of loose L.A. due to urgent works & hence; Certify Attendance as put up by the staff.
The imp.managerial work of HRD of checking/ tallying Attendance cannot be done or is ignored since; HRD has not adopted L.C.System.(Finance Dept.can check & tally all expenses a/c.). One reason for not adopting L.C. is; many HR Mgrs/GMs.not knowing its utility for HRD.

BENEFIT OF LEAVE CARD TO THE COMPANY:
======================================
In case of Leave Card; since there will be only one Card for every employee for one year, the L.C., moves thru’ the HODs, HRD., Accts., Auditors, Sanctioning Authority-GM/MD throughout the year. It helps them to check; see the correctness of all Leaves; specially; P.L. as it is cash. This Check itself will reduce discrepancies; and lead to a qualitative change in the approach / attitude of all P&A Ofcrs to check the L.C. when it comes to them (AND EVERY LEAVE CARD MUST GO TO P&A Officers TO PERFORM THEIR MANGERIAL WORK OF VERIFICATION). It makes employees extra cautious & plan to take leave unlike in the case of Loose L.A. which only helps to take, sanction leave but none to check. As L.C. is a manually entered Card & checked by P&A, Auditors,Accts. etc., it is accepted by all as Authenticated & Seniors rely for its correctness. Hence, L.C. helps to compute Leave & make Pay Roll & F.S.work fast.
Hence, by adopting L.C.System,HRD can avoid many blames.
If you have not yet introduced L.C; to start with; u may make it as under:
1. One side of the Leave Card to apply for Leave &
2. Backside; u can print Leave Rules so that;
in one Card; u can get both the works done & u will have an effective & useful System in place for Leave Management.
1 Card for 1 Employee for 1 year.
After one year, keep LC in Per.File as Record to verify throughout their service; unlike the loose L.A. which cannot be traced after sanction of leave as L.A.is not / cannot be kept in Per.file. Empl. will know how often he is taking Leave, plan his leave. HOD can caution, Mis-use / approve on need basis.
As the CL, SL, PL of every employee will be mentioned in every Leave Card, employees; specially in Prodn., O&M, Essential Service etc., approaching HR Dept. frequently to know leave balance; can be avoided. Also; HODs time is not wasted to contact HRD to know Leave balance to sanction leave to his employees.
The existing System of applying for Leave Online, Punching, Face Reader Bio-metric etc., will continue. Only the L.A. will be replaced with L.C. for several benefits for the Co.’s P&A function.
=====================================
4. MAN POWER INDENT / REQUISITION –M.P.I./ R. Form
:===========================
Recruitment work starts when User Dept.(i.e., Dept.which require /indenting employees for job) sends MPIF/R.F.+JD to HR Dept. MPI is the 1st Process of Recruitment. But when some Tech.HODs; require candidates with specific Qlfcn, Exp.of different types of Machines like CNG, Steel Plant, Power, Chemical, Electronics, Soft/hardware, precision type etc.,the Indenting Form tobe designed suitably. My Single Sheet Form is designed to indent such Posts. It has many Columns for HOD to fill like Specific Exp.,Qlfcn.,Type/nature of job etc. Reason for Recruitment- Resignation, Excess work, New Machine; etc., HOD after filling & Appl.by Unit.Head, send to HR Dept., HRD to compare MP Appl. with MP Planning & Succession Planning Statements to Check Internal Candidates. If no suitable match, take MD’s appl. & start Recruitment process.
=========
5. EXISTING CO. APPLICATION / BIO-DATA FORM not providing imp. dtls.of all empl’s, Family, Dependents, Nominee, Person to Contact in Emergency to update / furnish details in Statutory Returns to F.I., L.I.,P.F.I., ESI, IT, PT., Bank, HRIS etc., Hence, many HR Mgrs.
face problems to give Per.dtls. to GM/MD, Govt.Officers etc. as the following current infn. is missing-
1. No Present Address to send Notice to X,
2. Mobile No. changed & unable to contact X
3. No Nominee’s detls.or dtls. of Person to
contact in Emergency; to Notify accident etc.
4. No Nominee’ detls. to send payment of
deceased X
5. No detls. of Marriage/Family, Children,
dependents
6. No detls.of Aadhar,Pan Card for PF, ESI,I.Tax etc.
7. No detls. of latest Addnl. Qlfcn. etc., to
review Career Growth, Spl.Increment etc.,
8. No Bank A/c.No. IFC Code No.etc.to send F.S./payment
As the above infn. have changed after joining / giving Ist Bio-Data 5-8 years ago, pl. print new Appn./Bio-data Form, make all empl’s to fill & submit with supporting documents to update Statu. Returns, PF, ESI, HRIS, Per.files etc.
(My NEW BIO-DATA FORM will help U to collect all such infn. 60 Points. Some Cos. adopted them as their Co.Appn. had less than 20 points. Pl.check no. of points in ur Co.’s Appn. Form).
(As per New PF & ESI Notifications (PF Form-11 to replace earlier Form 2 & Form 13), Cos. have to collect & provide all employees personal details + their Family, dependents, Nominee + Aadhar, Pan Card, Bank A/c. dtls.etc. & to keep in Per. Files to show to Officials to get benefits to employees in critical times. Report says; out of 10+ crores PF Members, 1+ crores Members Name, DOB, initial, Father, Nominee names vary due to which, many Empl/Officers suffer to get PF Loan, Transfer, Settlement, Pension etc., Also; there is problem to get ESI Benefit; making HR Mgr works a most challenging job.
=============================
6. ABSENCE OF RECRUITMENT –INTERVIEW PROCEDURES- MAN POWER INDENT, Interview Conducting, Selection, Appl. for Apptt. etc., causes problems between HR Manager, HODs & GM,MD reg. Selection, fixing Designation, Grade, Salary etc.,
My Single Format for Interview Evaluation, Selection, Appl. for Apptt., will solve all problems of Recruitment, Selection, Apptt., fixing Designation, Grade, Salary etc.,
=======================
7. INDUCTION Process; the 1st Impression, Confidence building, sharing tool; between New Recruitees, Co., HODs & Reporting Officers do not exist. Joining, Welcoming, Introducing formalities; providing basic infn., facilities etc., to the new Recruitee are essential to create a sense of belonging / Retaining, career growth etc.,.
==========================
8. ABSENCE OF PROPER FORMS, RULES TO PAY, REGULATE ADVANCE, LOAN, EXPENSES, OD, TA, Co-Off, PL Encashment, MB etc., affects Administration of P&A works. A uniform Policy, Forms will reduce writing works & save precious time of Officers, employees and facilitate fast working of P&A and Accounts Dept.
9. ABSENCE OF UPDATED FORM FOR PA, JD, DISCIPLINE TO ASSESS EMPL’S. PERFORMANCE to give Designation, Promotion , Increment ; can lead to Grievances, attrition, dis-satisfaction,
problems to HR Mgrs. to administer P&A works.
10. ABSENCE OF ASSET DAMAGE / BREAKAGE / INJURY REPORTING SYSTEM, Forms: Assets Registering of costly items like Laptop, Mobile, Instruments, tools, Movement Systems, Employment Injury; can result in Loss to Co., delay to claim insurance / settle payment etc.
11. RESIGNATION ACCEPTANCE, NO DUE / CLEARANCE CERTIFICATE, Relieving & Final Settlement- No proper Form / System after HOD sends Resignation Letr. to HR. No Feedback to the person, HOD etc. from HRD reg. Resignation Acceptance, No Due / Clearance Certificate , Exit Interview, F.S. etc., to regularise Separation.
12. ABSENT NOTIFICATION FORM - - A.N.F.
======================================
Absenteeism is common in some of the Labour Intensive Cos.& it can become an issue if not dealt with promptly. HRD. is blamed for laxity.
Qtn.: When X in Prodn. Dept. absents, whether HR or Prodn. Dept. to initiate action?? HR to take Action against erring employee only when concerned HOD sends A.N.F. to him. Proper Disc.Procedures, Rules tobe followed for AOS lest; Court will nullify Termination as void. The above Form helps to Report & initiate action for Absenteeism. A Circular & ANF Form to be sent to all HODs to Monitor, Report Absenteeism & to initiate Disciplinary action.
13. WHY STANDING ORDERS (S.O.) - I.D. Act - Issues.
===========================
A Certified STANDING ORDERS under Indus. Employment(S.O) Act; empowers the Co. to take Disc. Action against its Erring Empl’s. for violating T&C in S.O. BUT; the Co. cannot punish Empl’s. for acts not included in S.O. - SUPREME COURT.
Company Suspends, Terminates employees leading to Litigation, grievance; damaging Co.reputation; besides wasting Co.’s time & Money. TERMINATION WITHOUT ENQUIRY / NATURAL JUSTICE etc. IS ILLEGAL & Court can re-instate such Empl’s.
S.O. Act obliges Cos.with 50+ empl.to adopt S.O. to regulate Employment conditions, Master-Servant Relation -tobe Certified by DLC & displayed for infn. & compliance by Co. & all empls.

Imp.Do’s, Don’t’s, Duties of Empl’s., Mis-conducts for which empl’s. LIABLE FOR DISCI.ACTION-80 points. Imp.t&c.in Appt.Order.-for Sk.empl.-30,Suprvsrs & above-40. Pl.include Imp.acts/Conducts in S.O. & A.O.,and Follow PROCEDURES of NATURAL JUSTICE to make Co’s. action LEGAL.
===============================

Every HRMgr. must have all Imp. HR Acts, Systems, Rules, Forms to administer HR works efficiently, effectively & Professionally; as HR Mgr. is answerable to
F.I., L.I., PFI, Pension, ESI, Gratuity, PT, other Govt. Officers, Auditors, HODs, GM/MD, Employees etc., and he has to solve all employees problems; keep Records in Per. Files for future ref. DURING THE LIFE OF EMPLOYEE & CO. ITSELF.
