Journal Title: IOSR journal of Business and Management - Year 2018, Vol 20, Issue 2

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of H.R. practices on the Employee Attrition in Defence PSUs in India. Basically, Hiring Practices and Performance Appraisal & Training Practices are the two major aspects of the H.R. Practices that have been researched upon in this paper. The Indian Government has recently allowed Private Sector participation in the Defence Industry. This decision led to the entry of the private companies to Defence Sector and it also proved to be an end of monopoly of Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs). Now, the DPSUs are very much concerned about the employee switch over to the private companies - their competitors. The major research question was who is more likely to switch over, Junior / Middle Level Executives or Senior Level Executives? Hence, it became a compulsion for the researcher to conduct a comparative research on attrition in DPSUs from the perception of Junior / Middle Level and Senior Level Executives. The research concentrated on the relationship between Designation Level and the Hiring Practices as well as Performance Appraisal & Training Practices. Researcher also investigated the correlations among Hiring Practices, Performance Appraisal & Training Practices, Satisfaction Level of the executives and Reasons of Attrition.
