CHAPTER - I

INTRODUCTION

1.1. Introduction of the Employee Satisfaction:

Every organization’s performance is partly dependent on the atmosphere

and degree of satisfaction, attitude and opinions of its employees. Employees

interact with customers and with each other (internal customer surveying).

Research shows that low-level employee satisfaction can significantly affect the

organizational productivity and competitiveness.

But how to go about measuring employee satisfaction and why?  Vision

Metrics applies an easily configurable feedback survey to make the abstract less

obscure. Measuring employees’ satisfaction will provide you greater clarity and

tangible results on what is otherwise difficult to bring into perspective.

Most organizations share the same needs to maintain and achieve

satisfied employees, be it recognition, work area comfort, confidence in the

company’s mission or their products/services etc. Vision Metrics Employee

Satisfaction puts into perspective different themes that are easily measured and

are accessible in real-time.

The backbone of employee satisfaction is respect for workers and the job

they perform. In every interaction with management, employees should be

treated with courtesy and interest. An easy avenue for employees 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 they are being heard and putting honest dedication into

compromising will often help to improve morale.

6

Page 7: A STUDY ON CUSTOMER SATISFACTION BALU - FINAL PAPER BALU-98434191474 - BBA - A

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 bathrooms 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 considerations

like these can improve employee satisfaction, as workers will feel well cared for

by their employers.

Benefits of Employee Satisfaction

Strengthen employee productivity by constructively addressing challenges and

leveraging organizational strengths.

Gauge your organization's 'temperature' and morale.

By improving organizational satisfaction you will be improving customer

interaction with all levels of your organization.

By far the most cost-effective solution as opposed to in-house development or

paper-based surveying.

Respondent hit rates increase when a third party facilitates results, assuring

participants that their responses are anonymous, secure and dealt with

professionally and objectively.

The gesture of listening or voicing employees significantly improves esteem and

management/employee relations.

7

Page 8: A STUDY ON CUSTOMER SATISFACTION BALU - FINAL PAPER BALU-98434191474 - BBA - A

Features of the Employee Satisfaction

Administer and control almost any aspect of a survey, from question profiles,

respondent administration to automated correspondence, reminders and survey

participation monitoring.

The latest technologies are used to make the results presentable in graphs and

barometers, giving you a visual dashboard perspective of your company's

‘temperature’.

Configure for a single manager, a team or extend throughout the organization.

Measurements are usually more effective when benchmarked over a period of

time.

Anonymous feedback provides greater participation and honest feedback.

Internationally oriented companies are no longer restricted by geography or

cultural barriers.

1.2. Introduction of the study

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 stay 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

surveys or face-to-face meetings with employees to gain information.

Surveys are often anonymous, allowing workers more freedom to be honest

without fear of repercussion.

Page 9: A STUDY ON CUSTOMER SATISFACTION BALU - FINAL PAPER BALU-98434191474 - BBA - A

Surveys and meetings can truly get to the center of the data surrounding

employee satisfaction.

To measure employee satisfaction, many companies will have mandatory

surveys or face-to-face meetings with employees to gain information. Both of

these tactics have 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 know that their voice has been heard and their

concerns addressed by those in charge. Surveys and meetings 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.

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 or group

outings, can help build close bonds among workers.

Conducting an employee satisfaction survey in an organization  is a matter

of great importance, therefore needing in-depth knowledge of the subject and

enough time so that the results can leer be used for developing the action plans

and realizing the enhancements.

Satisfied and committed employees are beneficial by providing high-

quality customer service. That is followed by high customer satisfaction which in

turn ensures long term prosperity to the organization.

Page 10: A STUDY ON CUSTOMER SATISFACTION BALU - FINAL PAPER BALU-98434191474 - BBA - A

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 or group outings, can help build close bonds among

workers. Many companies also participate in team-building retreats that are

designed to have found success. strengthen the working relationship of the

employees in a non-work related setting. Camping trips, backpacking wars and

guide backpacking trips are versions of this type of team-building strategy, with

which many employers have found success.

The backbone of employee satisfaction is respect for workers and the job

they perform. In every interaction with management, employees should be

treated with courtesy and interest. An easy avenue for employees 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 they are being heard and putting honest dedication into

compromising will often help to improve morale.

Of course, few workers will not experience a boost in morale after

receiving more money. Raises and bonuses can seriously affect employee

satisfaction, and should be given when possible. Yet money cannot solve all

morale issues, and if a company with widespread problems for workers cannot

improve their overall environment, a bonus may be quickly forgotten as the daily

stress 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 bathrooms clean and stocked with

supplies. While an air of professionalism is necessary for most businesses, 10

Page 11: A STUDY ON CUSTOMER SATISFACTION BALU - FINAL PAPER BALU-98434191474 - BBA - A

allowing workers to keep family photos or small trinkets on their desk can make

them feel more comfortable and nested at their workstation. Basic considerations

like these can improve employee satisfaction, as workers will feel well cared for

by their employers.

COMPANY PROFILE

History

Akshaya was founded in 1995 under the stewardship of Mr. T. Chitty

Babu, a qualified Civil Engineer. Since its inception Akshaya has set higher

standards for itself, inspired by the Sanskrit origin of its name, which means

‘endless pursuit’. It has grown into one of the most respected real estate

companies in the state, reputed for its transparent business practices and

innovation. The journey over the last 15 years has seen the company grow by

leap and bounds, as it went about creating 148 landmarks in Tamil Nadu.

In an endeavour to excel and set higher standards of performance and

corporate governance, the management team has on board professionals from

various other industries to head the Marketing, Technical, Finance, Sales &

Profile:

 

Name:                                 K.Ravishankar

Date of Birth:                     June 16, 1955

Education:                          B.Com (Hons), ACA

                                            Article ship with A.F.Ferguson & Co.

 

  Mr. K. Ravishankar brings along with him 3 decades of corporate experience

largely in the domain of finance and corporate strategy. He has been associated with

various corporate conglomerates like Tata Motors, ITC Ltd. and BPL Communications in

Senior Manager Capacity, including board position. Currently as CEO of Akshaya Pvt

Ltd. leads 140 member strong team in establishing and benchmarking standards in Real

Estate Sector by placing Akshaya in the list of top real estate brand in India.

Budget Reaction:

This budget has been quite a dampener. Perhaps the government wants to built

it over the next 5 years and it is not possible to do everything at one go.

 

Real estate continues to not attract the attention of the FM. It is a huge

disappointment. This year was a good opportunity not only to give sufficient impetus to

18

Page 19: A STUDY ON CUSTOMER SATISFACTION BALU - FINAL PAPER BALU-98434191474 - BBA - A

the developers but also greater incentive to the customers. Real estate needs to be

looked at as infrastructure development.

 

The budget proposals signal a huge boost for infrastructure spending and with

development of roads and highways, development of dwelling units would go a long

way in decongesting the overcrowded cities and towns. Taxes in various forms and

prolonged processes in obtaining clearances take away substantial portion of the costs

making it unaffordable for the customers.

 

Lop sided infrastructure development will not help the economy grow. It has to

be balanced. With such a large population in India the demand for affordable housing is

inevitable. The government has to take some bold steps and bring in reforms to enable

the real estate sector produce housing at affordable costs.

Empowering the Consumers

"Over the years, interaction with the customers revealed that lot of ambiguities persist

54

Page 55: A STUDY ON CUSTOMER SATISFACTION BALU - FINAL PAPER BALU-98434191474 - BBA - A

among home seekers pertaining to rights of ownership, maintenance charges,

documentation modalities etc. Also lack of in-depth insight into rules and regulations of

civic bodies and other relevant authorities have proved detrimental for some. And we

found a latent need for a forum or platform to empower all home aspirants about the

finer details essential while buying a home"- quotes Mr.Chitty Babu.

Thus was born Akshaya's Home Facts, an initiative to enlighten all home seekers about

his / her rights regarding various aspects that has to be understood before buying an

apartment. Akshaya has been conducting workshop on Home Facts for the last 5 years

and the initiative is gaining momentum with every passing day.

Akshaya Homes.
