1.0 GENERAL BCKGROUND OF THE STUDY
The purpose of undertaking this project is to look into how personnel management enhances industrial harmony with special reference to cotton mills limited Onitsha. Also it is utmost important to and identity the problems militating against workers effective performance it is hoped however , that it mill from a useful handbook for the management of general cotton mills limited particularly the personnel management whose duty is to enhance the industrial harmony of the company.
Before analyzing the area to be covered in this project it is worth explaining some keywords like personnel management;
The dictionary meaning of personnel is body of persons engaged in some public service or in the offices. Also a personnel manager is the one employed to dead with relationship between individual employee their relationship problems grievance etc.
Personnel management is therefore the management of human resources and the optimum utilization of manpower to achieve the desired objective and this is regarded as a life wire of any organization.
Personnel management in the sense of managing people can said to be part of the role every person who is responsible for the work of others.
Furthermore personnel management deals with recruiting selecting placing training developing motivating pay and benefits enforcement relation with trade unions staff association safety and heath employment legislation etc
The creation of goods and service in our society is accomplished through effective work force.
It is pertinent to mention have that many organizations has lose down or retrench their worker due to not only lack of raw material and spare parts but to some extents dues to industrial arrest that are bound in such organization it is therefore necessary to curb or strongly minimize such a menace or hazards.
To do this investigations should be carried out or condition hence this project is undertaken.
It should be noted or remembered that since that attainment of organizations objectives is through the work of people and it is established that if people think and act differently conflicts and disharmony must exists.
The investigations is therefore aimed at highlighting the factor that affects and that could brings about disharmony in a department and to try and recommend remedies for it
Personnel management which is that departments in an organization that ahs the prime responsibility for the following:
Again personnel management amongst all departments in an organization is regarded as one of the important department of which if not fund affects the running of the organization. There are some other important works which are performed by the personnel managers which helps the organization in enhancing their industrial harmony which will help for the effectiveness of the workers and could also lead to improvement of their output.
There are many problems associated with this study and it could not be overemphasize.
In Nigeria today there are problems which face the personnel practitioners the first major problems is concerned with the delicate balance which a personnel manager must maintain between expatriate and their counterparts. By virtue of culture difference between two group and the fact that expatriate who belong to multinational organization have to be treated differently and apparently better with regards to conditions of service there is bound to be some conflict among two group but problems arises really form lack of understanding.
As Messrs Onosode and Dan with most have pointed out some of the expatriate possibly pointed out some ignorance rather arrogance tend to have the erroneous pre-conceived idea that his Nigeria counterparts has no skills.
Another area of misunderstanding concerns condition of service especially housing. The Nigeria managers cannot understand why they should be asked to look for their own flat while the company provides his expatriates counterpart with well furnished and maintained house while this reason is understandable in the sense of equal pay for equal job the reasoning appears to be based on misunderstanding.
Lack of training on the part of supervisors is contributing factors to the problems the personnel managers have to face. Most of the supervisors today are those who were recruited during the period of 1960.
They are generally those of low education and the training and the development of this level of supervisors are not always a rewarding excised.
Consequently many of them are familiar with these aspect of management which are associated with their work how to communicate with them effectively failure to do things effectively can leads to general frustration among workers which affects the improvement of out put and growth of the organization.
Another major problem is that of union most of the local union secretaries are workers whose education is low and who have received no trade union education what so ever. Their colleagues have appointed them as they have shown by their behaviour that they would not co-operate with management.
Consequently intellectual reasoning and logic become irrelevant in discussion and negotiations.
The process of selection and placement is to the personnel managers a straight forward one yet it has its problem for personnel managers.
The problem arises because too many applications are chasing too few jobs. This is where social pressure comes in once an individual is know to be in charge of a particular company his relations towns men and friends bombard hi, with letter and as such the organization suffers.
Personnel managers who are prepared to employ only those who satisfy adequately the criteria laid down is bound to expand the organization positively.
Finally, we must mention which could also create problems in running of the organization for the attainment of their objective.
There are a lot of functions performed by personnel management / department which are as follows.
Recruitment selection and placement wages and salaries administration industrial relations and joint consultation employment welfare training education enforcement health and safety joint consultation and labour relation. All these are some of the functions performed by the personnel management/ department and some them are disused below.
