Dear Sir/Mam
Doing a project on shop floor employee’s expectations towards employer, and their demographic mix in a manufacturing company.
Shortlisted the following procedures to study the same
*Demographic mix* and * employee expectations*
1. Secondary data from history of the company. (Data analysis) of Age, race, income level, education, previous misconducts and behavior
Null hypothesis: The Company knows all that the worker expects from the management
• Previous records on grievance management and handling
• Suspensions and domestic enquires held
• Any strikes and demand charter of union
• Previous settlements and the workmen/union expectations
2. Any Primary data conducted regarding the same (cannot float a form) through
• Direct interaction(minimum due to trust factor) need to find that one worker who can give all the data about remaining(validity becomes a question) ,
• supervisor interaction,
• Pure observation.
3. Try to find out the workmen expectations by estimating their positions in need hierarchy. The practicality to attain the same from the employer end.
How do you think my approach should be on the third step?
How to validate my data and inferences drawn from the same? What are the questions I need to include which makes it easier to validate? Any formerly designed valid questionnaire’s I should look on. What should be the sample size that I take, or minimum number of samples?
Am I going in the right direction on framing the above problem statement?
Any suggestions and recommendations would be highly appreciated.
Thank you
