ALUMINUM INPUTS:
The aluminum industry in India can be classified as: Captive power, ample bauxite reserves, coupled with cheap labour costs makes Indian Companies amongst the most competitative Aluminum producers globally. The main raw material for the manufacture of Aluminum includes bauxite, caustic soda, calcinated petroleum coke, coal tar pitch and LS/FS furnace oil. The production process for manufacture of aluminum is briefly outlined below. The mined bauxite are mixed with caustic liquor and is refined to produce alumina, this is then smelter (through electrolysis in a smelter) to obtain aluminum. Depending on the quality of bauxite, 2.5-3 tones are required for manufacture of 1 tone of alumina. In turn, 2 tons of alumina are requires for manufacture of 1 tone of aluminum.
BAUXITE:
Indian bauxite reserves at 3 ban tones are the 5th largest in the world reserves. Most aluminum refineries are designed around the bauxite reserves to reduce transportation costs. Cost per ton of bauxite varies for players depending on the location of refinery and bauxite mines. For example, Nalco has estimated 1600 million tones of bauxite reserves only 20km from alumina refinery, enabling it to become one of the most economical bauxite producers in the world.
POWER:
Power constitutes the single largest cost component for aluminum manufacturers (35-40% of operating costs). Almost all the major Indian companies have Captove Power Plants thus giving them access to cheap power. This makes India one of the most competitive low cost Aluminum producers in the world.
19
Hindalco & Nalcos production costs are amongst the lowest in the world. Both companies have the advantage of 100% Captive Power, vital in a power intensive Industry and in a power deficit country like India. Bauxite and calcinated petroleum coke are primary raw materials for this industry. However, alumina is raw materials for smelter and aluminum metal is raw material for fabrication.
FUEL USAGE:
Coal, furnace oil and electricity are primary energy inputs in Aluminum Production. Coal is primarily used to generate steam which is used in the process while fuel oil is mainly used in calcinations of Alumina and various furnaces in fabrication plants. Electricity is the major energy input in Aluminum production and is considered to be prime factor in determining economics of Aluminum Production. Hence, all primary metal producers have installed their own captive Power Plant to supply cheaper and uninterrupted is supplied for their use. Majority of electricity consumed in this industry is supplied by their Captive Power Plant.
TECHNOLOGICAL STATUS
Invented over 100 years, Bayer Hall-Heroult is the only available commercial technology, even today, for the production of Alumina is the basic raw material for the production of Alumina obtained from bauxite, a mineral the Bayer route, which is an extractive hydro-metallurgical process.

At Nalco, when we started our activities in Orissa 29 years ago, there was no such nomenclature like Corporate Social Responsibility or CSR. All that we knew was our Moral Responsibility towards the society. But today, CSR has become a buzzword in the corporate world. More and more organizations are waking up to this belated realization that beyond productivity and profitability, it is the social accountability that determines their image. Presently, even before the land is acquired and foundation-stone laid for a project, the company launches its CSR activities in the area. It is presumed that on a solid CSR foundation, a strong business empire can be built. As a policy, Nalco has been allocating 1% of its net profit of the year for periphery development activities of the succeeding year Out of this allocable fund: 40% is for Damanjodi sector, where the companys Mines & Refinery are located; 40% is for Angul sector, where the companys Smelter & Power Plant are located; and 20% is for other areas.
Navaratna Nalco has decided to set up a Corporate Social Responsibility Foundation by the end of April, 2010. For this, the company shall be allocating one percent of its net profit every year. So far, Nalco was spending one percent of its net profit for its periphery development programme. With the setting up of Nalco CSR Foundation, the amount now stands doubled. Moreover, the Govt guideline is to spend 5% of the net profit from mining revenue for CSR activities; whereas Nalco has decided to spend 2% from its overall net profit, which is much higher . Building Nalco does not mean merely contributing to the aluminum capacity of the country. It has involved playing significant roles in the economic development of the areas where Nalco operates. Rehabilitation of displaced families, employment and income generation for local people, development of infrastructure, environment care and humanitarian goodwill missions have earned Nalco a place of pride, not only in the corporate world of India but also in the hearts of the people of Orissa.
21
Now, the doubling of CSR fund indicates that with the passing years, Nalco has become more mellowed and matured, sharing its success with the society at large.

EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION:
Employee satisfaction is the method used to describe employees happiness and contentment in fulfilling their desires and needs at work. Employee satisfaction is a factor in employee motivation, employee goal achievement and positive moral in the work place. Employee satisfaction is a measure of how happy workers are with their job and working environment. Keeping morale high among workers can be of tremendous benefit to any company, as happy workers will be more likely to produce more, take fewer days off, and loyal to the company. There are many factors in improving or maintaining high employee satisfaction, which wise employers would do well to implement. To measure employee satisfaction, many companies will have mandatory survey or face-to-face meeting with employee to gain information. Both of these tactics have
27
pros and cons, and should be chosen carefully. Surveys are often anonymous, allowing workers more freedom to be honest without fear of repercussion. Interviews with company management can feel intimidating, but if done correctly can let the worker known that their voice has been heard and their concerns addressed by those in charge. Surveys and meeting can truly get to the center of the data surrounding employee satisfaction, and can be great tools to identify specific problems leading to lowered morale. Many experts believe that one of the best ways to maintain employee satisfaction is to make workers feel like part of a family or team. Holding office events, such as parties of group outings, can help build close bonds among workers. Many companies also participate in team building retreats that are designed to strengthen the working relationship of the employees in a non-work related setting. Camping trips, paintball wars and guided backpacking trips are version of this type of team-building strategy, with which many employers have found success. Of course, few workers will not experience a boost in morale after receiving more money. Raises and bonuses can seriously affect employee satisfaction, and if a company with widespread problems for workers cannot improve their overall environment, a bonus may be quickly forgotten as the daily of an unpleasant job continues to mount. If possible, provide amenities to your workers to improve morale. Make certain they have a comfortable, clean break room, with basic necessities such as running water. Keep facilities such as bathroom clean and stocked with supplies. While an air of professionalism is necessary for most businesses, allowing workers to keep family photos or small trinkets on their desk can make them feel more comfortable and nested at their workstation. Basic consideration like these can improve employee satisfaction, as workers will feel well cared for by their employers.
28
The backbone of employee satisfaction is respect for workers and the job them perform. In every interaction with management, employees should be treated with courtesy and interest. As easy avenue for employee to discuss problems with upper management should be maintained and carefully monitored. Even if management cannot meet all the demands of employees, showing workers that their being heard and putting honest dedication into compromising will often help to improve morale.
Office banter roughly includes coffee table and lunch room conservations and general gossip. Keep track of the groups of employees who gravitate together out of common interests. What is being discussed at these places will help the HR department effectively pinpoint the levels of satisfaction within the office. Willingness to take on extra load Employees who are happy with their jobs dont mind taking extra loads of the same kind. Since they obviously enjoy what they are doing, they do not mind the extra work once in a while! Faithfulness to deadliness Adhering to deadliness is not a problem when a job is executed with enthusiasm. Lack of motivation coupled with lethargy is kept at bay as the work is viewed not as burden but as fun. All these indicators in will prove effective only if the hr manager takes pains to keep himself abreast of office happenings. Expecting genuine feedback through from filling is asinine, as it the most sterile form of communication.

Satisfaction performance relationship can be essentially summarized in the statement A happy worker is a productive worker having employee get together, providing counseling service for employee training. Supervision to be sensitive to the concerns of subordinate can be done to make workers happy. Organization with more satisfied employee tends to be effective than organization with less satisfied employees.

So the debate whether satisfaction leads to better performance leads to satisfaction stills continues. Satisfaction and turn over:Does a high employee satisfaction results in low turnover? Research has discovered a negative relationship between satisfaction and turnover. Although absolutely no turnover is not beneficial for the organization, a low turnover rate is usually desirable because of training cost and the drawback of experience.

Workers with high satisfaction score will have much higher attendance then those with lower satisfaction levels.Manager are most likely to appreciate, evaluate positively and allocate reword to employee are most likely to be satisfied if they perceive they do fit.

Generally employee satisfaction depends upon various needs. If organizations fulfill all the needs then the employees can be satisfied. Various types of needs are defined by
Safety needs exert influence beyond childhood. The preference for secured income, the acquisition of insurance and owing once own home may be regarded as motivated in part by safety seeking Other expression of the need for safety occur when individual are confronted with real emergencies, e.g., war, crime, waves, floods, earthquakes, riots, social disorganization etc. managerial practice to satisfy the safety needs of employee includes pension scheme, group insurance, provident fund , gratuity, safe working condition, grievance procedure, system of seniority, to govern lay-off and others. Arbitrary actions which create feelings of uncertainty, favoritism, on the part of superiors hardly create feeling security in an employees mind. 3. Social Needs:Also called belonging and love needs. These needs arise when physiological and safety needs are satisfied .in the organizational context, social need represent the need for a compatible work group, peer acceptance, professional friendship and friendly supervision. In social needs defines Unlike Freud. 4. Self Esteem Needs: - Satisfaction of self esteem needs generates feelings and attitudes of self confidence, worth, strength and capability, these means feelings of inferiority ineptness, weakness and helplessness. Esteem is the result of effort-it is earned. In an organizational point of view self-esteem needs correspond to job title, merit pay increase pear or supervisory recognition, challenging work, responsibility and publicity in company publication. 5. Self Actualization Needs: The need for self actualization is distinctive, in that it is never fully satisfied. It appears to remain important and instability. The more apparent satisfaction of it a person obtains, the more important the need for more seems to become. A man with high intensity of achievement needs will be restless unless he can find fulfillment in doing what he is fitted to do. As Maslow has put it, this need might
34
be phrased as the desire to become more and more what one is, to become everything that one is capable of becoming. Three reasons explain why majority of people dont reach self actualization 1- Blind to own potentials. 2- Social environment stifles, 3- Lower level needs exert pressure.
ERG theory
The ERG theory is more consistent with our knowledge of individual differences among people. Variable such as education, family background and cultural environment can alter the importance or driving force that a group of needs holds for a particular
35
individual. Overall ERG theory seems to take some of the strong points of the earlier content theories, but is less restrictive and limiting.
Process theory
Goal setting theory
A goal is basically a desirable objective, the achievement of which is upper most in the mind of a person. Goals are used for 2 purposes in organization. As motivation devices in the sense that employees work towards meeting these goals. As a control device when performances are monitored in relation to the goals set for individuals and departments.
Equity theory
Adams motivation theory which is based on the comparison of perceived inputs to outputs. Porter and Lawler seek to identify valences and expectancies and link effort with performance and satisfaction.
History:The expression was first used in the late 1970s to describe the balance between an individuals work and personal life.
37
Over the past 25 years, there has been a substantial increase in work which is felt to be due, in part, by information technology and by an intense, competitive work environment. Long-term loyalty and a sense of corporate community have been eroded by a performance culture that expects more from their employees yet offers little security in return. Many experts predicted that technology would eliminate most household chores and provide people with much more time to enjoy leisure activities; but many ignore this option, encouraged by prevailing consumerist culture and a political agenda that has elevated the work ethic to unprecedented heights and thereby reinforced the low value and worth attached to parenting. Employee assistance professional say there are many causes for this situation ranging from personal ambition and the pressure of family obligations to the accelerating pace of technology. According to the recent study for the Center for Work-life policy. 1.7 million People consider their jobs and their work hours excessive because of globalization. Between forty-six and forty-nine percent of workers that tress is affecting their interpersonal and sexual relationship. Additionally, men feel that there is a center stigma associated with saying I cant do this.
imbalance in life. The transition from work life imbalance to work life balance has obvious benefits to an organization and its employees. Work life balance on an individual level can bring phenomenal change in his life and can also heavily impact a society. A balanced work life is of advantage to an employees health. Stress level declines drastically to healthy levels. Individuals derive wore value for their work and form life that leads to greater satisfaction and is also seen as a mode of self-actualization. The employees can better understand the nature of his work balance as work life balance can vary among individuals. It is this point of time that an employee starts resting immense trust in the organization and his commitments level to the organization increase. On the social font, the individual gains when relationship improve. The individual can now willingly devote more time and energy to his so commitments, which is also vital for a happy life. Thus, work-life balance can bring a hue transformation are the organizational and individual levels. It helps an organization to inherently build a strong value system, which is attributed to the life balance enjoyed at the employee level. Consequently, the organization does not have to impose a formulated framework or organization values because they now became intrinsic to it. Work life balance at the individual level enjoys its success in addressing to societal issues. it helps in heading a society off its problem such as increasing infertility among working people, increasing number of divorces and its adverse effect on children.
balance between work and life in employees lives. The organizations are too exacting in their demands and because of the very high competition, they are able to dictate terms open the individuals. As the organizations are basically the profit driven entities, they rarely bother about the personal life and work-satisfaction issues of the employee. Thus they are least concerned at their level with work life satisfaction. Organizations have the work force in plentitude and as far as the people are ready to work as there people instead of one, they dont brother about the consequences the employees may face with this stressful work atmosphere. Individuals are equally responsible for creating work life imbalance, as the silence adopted by the individuals is the major factor responsible for work life imbalance. As people do not rise their voice against the unfair amount of work delegated upon them, they land up with unfair amount of work for themselves. Due to high ambitions of the individuals they put themselves under much more pressure than they can handle. people tend to escape from marking decisions and from tanking stands. Work life imbalance is creating a different kind of lifestyle. People are having different professional and personal goals, which are often contradictory, and this is ultimately bringing imbalance in their lives.
More value and balance in your daily life. Better understanding of what your best individual work life balance is. Increase productivity Reduced stress. Improved relationship of both on and off the job
