Conclusion
I have learned more about this organization during my internship. The duration was very
beneficial for academic point of view. LINTA was established in 1998 and nowadays LINTA is
achieving its targets. The present position of LINTA is very strong. But I think there are some
areas of improvement in LINTA. Employees feel workload there so they should try to reduce
workload. LINTA. They should improve working conditions of the employees to bright the
future of LINTA.
Suggestions
• Most of the employees were agreed on that the good performance appraisal activities are
helpful to get motivate them, so the company should try to improve performance appraisal
system,so that they can improve their performance.
• Non-financial incentive plans should also be implement, it can improve the productivity level
of the employees.
• Skills of the employees should be appreciated and rewarded.
• Some of the employees are not satisfied with the relationship between the topmanagement
they should be free to speak with their employees.
• LINTA needs a lot of improvement in the area customer service. It is one area where the
organization lags behind especially while competing the international market. Although
LINTA has made quite an efficient use of technology over the last few years but there is a lot
of room to further development of technology. By doing this LINTA can increase its
efficiency. A lot of hard work to increase the quality of man power working at LINTA.
