 PREFACE

“Internship programme” is recognized for the betterment and up gradation of the students
and to get practical exposure. This is a 6-8 weeks training program where the students are
required to work in a company.
I did my internship report on Work Life Balance where I came to know about the internship
procedure practically. During the internship program I faced many challenges and learnt how
to face them. That eventually helped me to understand the importance of theories in a real
corporate world.
For this report I used Google forms for data collection filled up by the different department
employees. During the interaction I got to know about employee’s perception, thinking,
knowledge, ideas for self as well as the organisation which helped me in my practical
experience in the company.

 ACKNOWLEDGMENT

The success and final outcome of this internship report required a lot of guidance and
assistance from many people and I am extremely privileged to have got this all along the
completion of my internship report. All that I have done is only due to such supervision and
assistance and I would not forget to thank them.

I wish to express my sincere gratitude to my supervisor, Sh. Satender Jayswal, for his
enthusiasm, patience, insightful comments, helpful information, practical advice and
unceasing ideas that have helped me tremendously at all times in writing is report.  His
immense knowledge, profound experience and professional expertise in Human Resource has
enabled me to complete this internship report successfully. Without his support and guidance,
this project would not have been possible. I could not have imagined having a better
supervisor for my internship.

I also wish to express my sincere thanks to the Himachal Pradesh Power Corporation
Limited Management, Mrs. Nishi Bhatii (Manager (P&A)) and all the other staff
members of HPPCL who helped me in the completion of my internship report.

 ABSTRACT
Work–life balance is a modern concept which is still evolving. It deals with prioritizing
between "work" on the one hand and "life" on the other which are two inseparable entities of
a human life. I have mentioned that it is still evolving because this balance tips the scale
based on the emerging technological advances, as I believe that much advanced the
technology it’s much easier to balance work and life.
In organizations and in the home, the challenge of work/life balance is rising to the top of
many employers and employees consciousness. In today’s fast-paced society, human resource
professionals seek options to positively impact the bottom line of their companies, improve
employee morale, retain employees with valuable company knowledge, and keep pace with
workplace trends. This report provides with the present day scenario of the work-life balance
of employees in HPPCL and possible solutions for organizations and employees.

are known as primary legislation. There are many acts in India dealing in
various aspects of the law.

b) Rule: Rule is more precise statement, under the Act or Policy, which provided
distinctiveness and clarity to each of the provisions of the Act.

c) Policy:Policy is a broad set of instruction or guidelines, which ensures

uniformity equitability and clarity in decision-making process. In more
concrete manner, it can be shaped in the form of a law, regulation, procedure,
administrative, action.

D. Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) & SAP:

ERP applications automate and support a range of administrative and operational

business process across multiple industries, including line of business, customer-
facing, administrative and the assets management aspects of an enterprise. A
presentation was given to all the trainees in conference hall by few of the staff
members of HPPCL on ERP. The presentation only included an overview of ERP and
how SAP works.

1. ERP is process used by companies to manage and integrate the important parts
of the business. Many ERP software applications are important to companies

7
 because they help them implement resource planning by integrating all of the
processes needed to run their companies within a single system. In this system
includes integrate planning, purchasing inventory, sales, marketing, finance,
human resource.
Various ERP software's are: ODOO, SAP, oracle, Microsoft Dynamics,
INFOR STYLINE

2. SAP -

 It is developed by German company SAP SE

 SAP stands for Systems, Applications, and Products in Data

Processing (Anwendungen und Produkte in der Datenverarbeitung in
German).

 Globally SAP has 24% market share more than any other

 Once an entry is made you cannot delete that entry in SAP but you can
alter it

 SAP servers

a) Development (DEV): In this server customization is done

according to the requirements of the company.

b) Quality (QAS): It is the server where the customization will be

checked if it is working properly then we will move to
production server but if there is any fault or error in the
customization then we go back to the development server.

c) Production (PRD): In this server all the live data of the

company is recorded.

 SAP is based on T codes (Transaction codes)

 SAP HR Modules

8
 a) Organizational Management: This module enables the
organization to represent the organizational plan and analysis of
the current plan.

b) Personnel Administration: It records essential employee's

information. This module helps us to perform various
administrative tasks like hiring of the employees, personnel
information, travel expenses, payroll accounting, etc.

c) Time Management: This module is related to attendance, time

evaluation, shifts, etc

d) Payroll Accounting: This module helps us to process the

payment for the work which is done by employees. It includes
wages, medical benefits, taxes, deductions, etc 

E. Facilitator & Regulator:

A Facilitator is a person who helps a group of people work together better, understand
their common objectives, and plan how to achieve these objectives, during meetings
or discussions. In doing so, the facilitator remains" neutral", meaning they do not take
a particular position in the discussion.
A regulator is a person that supervises a business activity or a particular industry.
The role of HR is more of Facilitator than Regulator.

F. Then I was asked to watch the movie "The Karate Kid" and what lesson I
learned after watching the movie:
 Be respectful
 Hard work does pay off: A bit of hard work never hurt anyone, but who knows
it might help you hurt some badass bullies!
 100% Commitment: Decide what it is you want from life and work how best
you can achieve it, with 100% commitment you’ll fulfil your goals.
 Find balance in your life
 Cheats don’t prosper in the long run
 Life will knock you down … a lot

9
  Practice the fundamentals and don’t worry about the fancy stuff
 Books can only take you so far
 Nothing in life is free
 Life is about the journey, not the destination

2.2 Topics to decide for the Project Report

A. Motivation:
It is derived from the word 'motive' which means needs, desires and wants of an
individual. It is the discipline which helps us to achieve our life goals and also helps
us to be successful in life. Motivation is very important for the overall development of
our personality as well as of our mind. It helps us to act.
Motivation Theories
1. Maslow’s hierarchy of needs
According to this theory a person will get motivated when his needs will be
fulfilled. The need start form the lowest level basic needs and keeps moving
up as a lower level need is fulfilled below is the hierarchy of needs:
 Physiological needs: These are physical survival necessities such as
food, water, air, sex, sleep and shelter. If these needs are not satisfied
then you cannot function in an optimal manner.

10
 Safety needs: After an individual's physiological needs are satisfied,
then the needs for safety and security becomes important. These needs
can be fulfilled by providing protection from threats, deprivation, and
other dangers and by offering schools and medical care.

Figure 2.1: Maslow’s hierarchy of needs

 Social (belongingness and love): After physiological and safety needs

are satisfied then the need for association, affiliation, friendship, and so
on comes.
 Self-esteem needs:  In this person desires for the need for respect and
recognition.
 Self-actualization needs: It is the highest level in the hierarchy. It
refers to when a person realizes his/her full potential, self-fulfilment
and seeking personal growth .

11
2. Herzberg’s two factor theory

In this theory the needs are classified into two categories i.e. hygiene factors
and motivating factors.

Motivators: These are the factors which encourage employees to work harder
and get involved in their work.

Hygiene factors: These are the factors which will not encourage the
employees to work harder but these factors will cause them to become
unmotivated if they are not present.

Figure 2.2: Herzberg’s two factor theory

3. McGregor’s theory X and theory Y

This theory is based on the participation of workers. The first is negative,

labelled as Theory X, and the other is positive, labelled as Theory Y. Both
kinds of people exist. According to their nature they need to be managed
accordingly.

12
  Theory X: This refers to the people who are inherently lazy, self-
centred, and lacking ambition and are not interested in working.
Therefore, in order to motivate them manager use rewards or
punishment.

 Theory Y: In this manager believes that employees are motivated, they

enjoy their job and work to make them better without any rewards

A. Work Life Balance

Work life balance is a method which helps employees of an organization to balance
their personal and professional lives. Work life balance encourages employees to
divide their time on the basis on priorities and maintain a balance by devoting time to
family, health, vacations etc along with making a career, business travel etc. It is an
important concept in the world of business as it helps to motivate the employees and
increases their loyalty towards the company.

Figure 2.3: Work Life Balance

After discussing all these topics, the one thing I realized was that all the topics expect
WLB are given more importance and also the people are having good knowledge about them.
The one concept WLB is not known so much as others and also the concept of WLB is not
given so much importance in government sectors as compared to the private sectors.

WLB is an emerging concept and according to me it is a very important concept which

should be implemented at every organization or company because employees are busy in

13
their offices throughout the whole day and also sometimes in the weekends. Due to this the
employees are not able to interact with their family and are neglected by them. Also, stressful
jobs deteriorate the health of employees. Work life balance concept allows an employee to
maintain a fine balance in the time he or she gives to work as well as to personal matters. By
having a good balance, people can have a quality of work life. This helps to increase
productivity at workplace as the employee is relaxed about his personal commitments. Also, I
checked the previous reports which were more focused on motivation, recruitment and
selection. According to me the health of employees comes first from anything. So I decided
to check the WLB of employees in HPPCL, are the employees here are working happily or
they are stressed and unhappy. 

CHAPTER 3

OVERVIEW OF WORK LIFE BALANCE

3.1 Meaning of WLB

14
Work–life balance is a broad concept which includes proper prioritizing between “work”
(career and ambition) on one hand and “life” (Health, pleasure, leisure, family and spiritual
development) on the other.

Work life balance is a method which helps employees of an organization to balance their
personal and professional lives. Work life balance encourages employees to divide their time
on the basis on priorities and maintain a balance by devoting time to family, health, vacations
etc along with making a career, business travel etc. It is an important concept in the world of
business as it helps to motivate the employees and increases their loyalty towards the
company.

Figure 3.1 Work Life Balance

The following is the summary of definitions on Work-Life balance given by various authors:

YEARS AUTHORS DEFINITION

1993 Kofodimos Work-Life Balance is, ―"a satisfying, healthy

and productive life that includes work, play and
love..."

2003 Greenhaus, Collins & Work Life Balance: ―"the extent to which an
Shaw individual is equally engaged in- an equally
satisfied with- his or her work role and family

15
 role."
Propose three components of work-life balance:
1. Time Balance
2. Involvement Balance
3. Satisfaction Balance

Table 3.1 Summary of WLB definitions

3.2 Reasons for an Imbalance in Work and Life

 You work all of the time: Work is great and good for you. But when you are
working all day, a person can be on the verge of burning out.
 You aren’t regularly sleeping: Sleep is very important to our overall health, and
without proper sleep, we won't feel as good at work, at home or with friends. So
proper sleep must be included in our lifestyle.
 You never stop thinking about work: Have you ever found yourself thinking about
work at home? Or maybe you're sitting at lunch with friends and enjoying and
suddenly you start thinking about your work. You should give yourself permission to
leave work and enjoy your personal life.
 You aren’t exercising: It is rightly said that exercise is crucial for long-term physical
and mental health. If you work very hard at your office and don’t exercise at all, then
you will become lethargic. So, we should make our physical health a priority so that
we can work with greater efficiency.
 You have no hobbies: This world is a terrible, beautiful and exciting place. There are
so much to do around us. We can' t do everything, but one can experience different
hobbies, we should find something that we really like, and increase our creativity and
to keep our mind in peace.

16
 Here are some benefits of hobbies:
1. It reduces stress
2. Connects us to other people
3. Encourages creativity
4. It exposes us from different perspectives
5. Provides resilience to growth
6. Helps us to learn continuously

3.3 Steps to maintain a healthy Work-Life Balance

 Track Your Time: The first thing we should do achieve a balanced life is to analyse
our current situation. You should keep record of everything for one week which
includes work-related and personal activities. This data will help us to understand
how we are using our time and where we are wasting it. This will increase our
efficiency.
 Determine Your Priorities: Everyone should take some time to consider what is
most important to them and make a list of their top priorities at work and at home.
Then we should review our time audit by asking our self the following key questions
What do I need to start? Do I stop? Do I keep going? Do more? Do less? Do
something different?
 Set Specific Goals: We should make a list of our priorities and turn them into specific
and measurable goals. We should allocate our proper time so that we can achieve our
goals.
 Schedule Scrupulously: All the successful people plan their work and then work
their plan. We only have one life, so have one date planner. Whether by paper or by
electronic devices, we can turn our priorities and goals into reality. We should take 10
to 20 minutes at the beginning of each day (or the night before) to plan our tasks and
activities for the day and evening ahead.
 Take Care of Your Health: Our health should always be our No. 1 priority. If we are
not in a good shape physically, mentally, and emotionally, both our work life and our
personal life will suffer. So, it's very important that we take out some time from our
busy schedules and look after our health.

17
  Nurture Your Family/Relationships: We should know that relationships with
family, friends, and loved ones are one of the greatest sources of inner satisfaction. If
our job or career is damaging our personal relationships, both these areas will
ultimately suffer. Yes, we know there will be days when we will need to work
overtime. The issue becomes problematic when we are working overtime all days. So,
by making our personal relationships a priority, both our productivity and
effectiveness on the job will increase drastically.
 Make Time for You: As much as work, health, and relationships take priority in our
daily life, it is very important to schedule time for our own renewal. We should
indulge ourselves in some small pleasure daily. We should take at least 30 minutes of
uninterrupted "me time." It will do wonders for our well-being, and our relationships
and our career will also benefit.

 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
4.1 Research Design
In this project report I have used descriptive research which means questions like what,
where ,when and how are answered . This research is based on existing present environment
and can report that what happens and what is happening.

4.2 Data Collection

Data collection is extremely important in the research process. The data collected for the
research helps in conducting proper analysis and helps in conducting research effectively. In
the process of data collection, the source of data which is primary and secondary data is very
important. For the report on work life balance, both primary and secondary data are taken
into consideration.

4.2.1 Secondary Data

Sources of secondary data for this research are: Websites, Articles, Magazines, Publications,
and HR manual of HPPCL, Journals as well as Thesis and another project on the same or
related topic.

4.2.2 Primary Data:

The primary data has been collected from the employees. This data helps most for the
completion of the study by providing full and direct information, which needs some
interpretation and analysis, to attain the objectives of the study. The collection was done
through questionnaire method.

4.3 Research Instrument

For this study a questionnaire was specifically designed for collecting the primary data from
the respondents. A self-administered questionnaire was distributed to the faculties. The
questionnaire included 20 questions of open-ended & close-ended type of questions.

4.4 Sampling

The sample related to the present study will basically include the entire population of
Faculties from HPPCL.

4.4.1 Sample Size

20
Sample size of 20-30 employees was chosen in convenience basis to represent the total
population.

4.5 Limitations of Study

As nothing is perfect, I also faced some difficulties during preparing the training report.
However, I have tried to complete my project report. The project has certain limitations
which are as following:

1. The time period for this study was very short i.e. 6-8 weeks which is too short to give
shape to a new idea.
2. Some desired information could not be collected due to confidentially.
3. The study is subjected to the basis and prejudices of the respondents, hence 100% of
accuracy cannot be assured.
4. The findings are based on the answers given by the employees, so any error or bias
may affect the validity of the finding.
5. The pilot survey of the questionnaire with the employees might not always be
successful.
6. Sometimes the pressure of work might be so heavy on employees that they don’t pay
enough attention to fulfil those questionnaires.
7. Sometimes the questionnaire contains some personal questions which are usually
avoided by employees on their professional work place.
8. The employees might also tell lies about the information they don’t have.

 DATA ANALYSIS, INTERPRETATION & FINDINGS

5.1 Introduction

This chapter is based on the analysis of data, its interpretation, discussion of results and
findings from the analysis and interpretation of data. However valid, reliable and adequate
the data may be, it does not serve and purpose unless the data is carefully processed,
systematically classified, scientifically analysed, properly interpreted and rationally
concluded.

 CHAPTER 6
CONCLUSION & SUGGESTION

A work-life balance programme offers a win-win situation for both the employer and the
employee. While employees may see work-life balance as a balance between managing work
obligations and non-work responsibilities, from the employer's perspective, work-life balance
involves the challenge of creating a more supportive environment that allows employees to
focus on their work while they are at work. Whichever way you look at it, the existence of an
effective work-life balance programme within an organisation can be beneficial for both
employees and employers.

For the employer, work-life initiatives create a positive employer image, promote being an
employer of choice, promote organizational citizenship and support diverse initiatives. For
the employee, it decreases stress, increases happiness, motivation and productivity, and
makes them more likely to successfully achieve their personal and professional goals.
Therefore, HR's key role is to understand the critical work-life balance issues, integrate them
into the organization's HR policy, and support work-life balance programs.

Therefore, from the study it is clear that employee work life balance in HPPCL is good, But
there is a small gap from employee satisfaction to company. This small gap can be covered
by following suggestions.

 The management can give some recreation facilities to the employees.

 The management can give stable working hours for the employees.
 The management can give flexible timing for work to employees.
 The management can give paid time off to the employees.
 The management can give career breaks/sabbatical to employees.
 The management can provide government accommodation to employees.
 The management can provide health programs to employees.
 The management can provide children education allowance to employees.
 The management can provide special pays to employees.
 The management can improve employee-employer relations.
 The management can arrange regular meetings for employees.

39
 The management can provide fringe benefits to employees.
 The management can provide policy for social events.
 The management can provide policy for family welfare
 The management can organize holidays, campus, and picnics to manage work-life &
personal life of employees.
 The management can provide exercise facilities for employees.
