the minimum wage whereas the permanent workers are being given higher wages
linked to the work they do. The workers have been asking for higher wages and

recognizing trade unions.

Manpower
Planning, Recruitment and Selection
Q1. XYZ Enterprises is in the business of
setting up Solar Power plants. Over the years, the company has been hiring
bright engineering graduates from good engineering colleges. They follow a
systematic process of identifying colleges to recruit from and have a detailed
recruitment process, including a written exam and personal interviews. However,
there are very high levels of attrition amongst the graduate engineers. When
the HR team did a detailed analysis of the data, they found two primary reasons
for the exits:
1. The engineers used this
as a temporary job while preparing for higher education courses, particularly
for colleges abroad.
2. The role itself did not really need
high-level engineering skills and the roles they were performing, could easily
be done by skilled and well-trained diploma graduates or technicians.
The company has now decided to focus
on hiring technicians and diploma graduates.
Question. What aspects of HR Planning and
Strategy will the company need to focus on for this approach to be successful? (10
Marks)

Singapore to manage operations for all his entities from Singapore. However, he
is worried that once he moves to Singapore, his original operations in Kerala

advice on how to handle this transition so that the Kerala company performance
is not impacted.
Question: What is you recommendation and how
would you approach this process?

Q3. Funky TV is a music television
channel that is very popular amongst youngsters. It is considered a fun channel
and has a great brand recall value, but due to high content costs and other
expenses, it is not very profitable. The channel is successful because of the
new formats and interesting ideas it keep introducing regularly on air.
The
employees are mostly in the age group of 22-30. There are a few other employees
from older age groups as well. The company prides itself on being a Crazy and
Cool workplace. Each employee at the time of joining is given decorating
material and lots of colourful paper to help them decorate their workplace.
This is an open office layout. All employees including the senior management
sit in the same area and there are small meeting rooms for people who wish to
have a quiet conversation.
Every evening at 6 pm, one employee is
randomly selected by draw of lots and gets to choose a playlist to play on the
public address system. There is no dress code and employees are inspired to
discover their individual style.
The employees are encouraged to speak
their mind, share their ideas and disagreements are considered healthy. Managers
avoid taking unilateral decisions and prefer to have a consensus-based
approach.
The culture is also such that it
attracts talented people from across all walks of life. The current channel
programming in charge was a professor of physics before he joined the channel.
Though the company faces stiff
competition in the music television space and is not the best paymaster, it
still has low levels of attrition.
a. Describe the basic features of Funky TV’s organisational
culture (5 Marks)
b. Basis the case study given above, what role does culture
play in attracting talent to the company? (

hired, the manager left and recommended that Rohan and Rita serve as joint
project leaders. Rita agreed reluctantly. Within a month Rita was angry because
Rohan was representing himself to others as the leader of the entire project
and giving the impression that Rita was working for him. Rita said: "
Rohan called a meeting of the project team without even consulting me about the
time or content. At the meeting, Rohan reviewed everyone's duties line by line,
including mine, treating me as just another team member working for him. Rohan
retorted, "Rita is all hung up with feelings of power and titles. She is
too sensitive about everything. I call a meeting and right away she thinks I'm
trying to run everything. Rita has other things to do, other projects to run,
so she doesn't pay too much attention to this one. She mostly let things slide.
But when I take the initiative to set up a meeting, she starts jumping up and
down about how I am trying to make her work for me."

conflicts occurring simultaneously. Keeping the conflict process model in mind,
