CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY Asian Paints approaches Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) from the perspective of being a responsible corporate citizen. There has been a continued effort to take up initiatives in various quarters and ensure sufficient resources for the sustenance and continuity of the same. The Company has identified projects across all its manufacturing locations in the country primarily in the areas of education, health care, and rain water harvesting. In the area of education, the Company has been involved in supporting various schools around its plants including the setting up of the Gattu school at Ankleshwar which provides eduction to around 2,500 students from various strata of society. In the area of health care, the Company continued operating Mobile Medicare Units (MMU) around Patancheru (Andhra Pradesh) and Kasna(UP) plants collaborating with HelpAge India, an NGO.

CORPORAT VISION: Asian Paints aims to become one of the top five Decorative coatings companies worldwide by leveraging its expertise in the higher growth emerging markets. Simultaneously, the company intends to build long term value in the Industrial coatings business through alliances with established global partners. Finishes that give you great looking interiors, with the choice of every shade of the spectrum HISTORY 1942 During the Second World War, it was hardly a promising time to set up a new company in India, but that is exactly what four young men did in Bombay. The name Asian Paints was picked randomly from the telephone directory. And the four young men started manufacturing paint in a garage rented for Rs. 75 a month, equipped with little more than a traditional Gujarati rhyme that reminded them that you can make any colour by mixing the right proportions of red, blue and yellow. 1945 The company had touched a modest turnover of Rs. 350,000, way beyond the wildest dreams of the partners. Up against the giant international paint companies, Asian Paints hit on the innovative marketing strategy of going where the consumer is, reaching out to the remotest corners of the country to give consumers products the way he wanted them-in convenientlysized packs. It was also around this time that the company created its mascot, Gattu, which has grown into one of Indias most recognizable advertising symbols and representative of Asian Paints strong Indian identity. 1957 It was the beginning of a decade of dramatic growth. The companys R&D department figured out a way to produce international quality Phenolic and Maleic resins on its simple coalfumace, with a hand-stirring process. This led Balmer Lawrie to reject the products offered by a

~7~

leading giant UK-owned paint company, despite the latter is perceived technological advantage and switch to Asian Paints products. Simultaneously the company embarked on an ambitious marketing campaign, forming close bonds with thousands of dealers in small towns all over India. These bonds in true Asian Paints style were so close that it developed a very strong link between the organization and dealers these efforts paid off handsomely as the story of the subsequent years shows. 1968 By 1968 the company surprised its big-name multinational competitors by emerging as Indias No. 1 paint company. Ever since 1968, the company has been a leader in this industry. The company presently has 27 % market share of the total paint market Even though being a leader in this industry, it has realized that it can further consolidate its position. 1998 In 1998, the company embarked on a major restructuring strategy under the guidance of management consultants, Booz Allen & Hamilton. The restructuring was done to bring greater focus to its business, improve efficiencies, control cost and strengthen its leadership position. After the completion of the restructuring, the vision for the company was stated. The company is committed to realizing its vision and has chartered a complete plan of action for realizing its vision.

INTRODUCTION OF CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITIES

1.1 Meaning

Corporate social responsibilities, also known as corporate responsibilities, corporate performance, responsibilities business, sustainable business, or corporate social performance is a form of corporate self regulation integrated into a business model. Ideally, CSR policy would function as built in, self regulating mechanism whereby business would monitor and ensure its support to low ethical standards, and international norms. Consequently, business would embrace responsibilities for the impact of its activities on the environment, consumers, employees, community, stakeholders and all other members of the public interest of the public sphere.

~ 17 ~

Furthermore, CSR focused business would proactively promote the public interest by encouraging community growth and development and voluntarily eliminating practices that harm the public sphere, regardless of legality. Essentially, CSR is the deliberate inclusion of public interest into corporate decision making, and the honoring of triple bottom line,

People Planet Profit

The practice of CSR is subject to much debate and criticism. Proponents argue that there is a strong business case for CSR, in that corporation benefits in multiple ways by operating with a perspective broader and longer than their own immediate, short term profits. Critics argue that CSR distracts from the fundamental economic role of business; others argue that it is nothing more than superficial window dressing; other yet argue that it is attempt to preempt the role of government as a watchdog over powerful Multinational Corporation. Corporate social responsibilities have been redefined guide to what the company stands for and will uphold to its consumers.

Business ethics is one of the forms of applied ethics that examines ethical principle and moral or ethical problems that can arise in a business environment. In the increasingly conscience focused marketplace of the 21st century, the demand for more ethical processes and actions is increasing simultaneously, pressure is applied on industry to improve business ethics.

1.2 Definition The World business council for sustainable development in its publication that CSR is the continuing commitment by business to behave ethically and contribute to economic development while improving the quality of life of the workforce and their families as well as of the local community and society at large. (By Lord Holme and Richard Watts)

CSR is about capacity building for sustainable live hoods. It respects cultural differences and finds the business opportunities in building the skills of employees the community and the government. (From Ghana)

The same report gave some evidence of the different perception of what this should mean from a number of different societies across the world, which the CSR is about cultural building for sustainable and finds the business opportunities in building the skills of employees, the community and the government. By the European model is much more focused on operating the core business in a socially responsible way, complemented by investment in communities, this model more sustainable because the two things mostly affect this; Social responsibilities become an integral part of the wealth creation process which if managed properly should enhance the competitiveness of business and maximize the value of wealth to society. When time get hard, there is the incentive to practice CSR more and better if it is a philanthropic exercise which is peripheral to the main business, it will always be the first thing to go when push comes to thrust.

1.3 Why to develop CSR

The term is often used interchangeably for other terms such as corporate citizenship and is also linked to the concept of triple bottom line reporting (TBL), which is used as framework for measuring an organization performance against economic, social and environmental parameters.

The rationale for CSR has been articulated in a number of ways. In essence it is about building sustainable businesses, which need healthy economics,, markets and communities.

~ 19 ~

Key drivers for CSR are: Enlightened self-interest creating a synergy of ethics, a cohesive society and sustainable global economy where markets, labor and communities are able to function well together. Social investment Contributing to physical infrastructure and social capital in increasingly seen as a necessary part of doing business. Transparency and trust- Business has low rating of trust in public perception. There is increasing expectation that companies will be more open, more accountable and be prepared to report publicly on their performance in social and environment areas. Increased public expectations of business- Globally companies are expected to do more than merely provide jobs and contribute to the economy through taxes and employment.

World Economic Forum &CSR

The World Economic forum has recognized the importance of corporate social responsibly by establishing the global corporate citizenship initiative. The initiative hopes to increase business engagement in and support for corporate social responsibility as a business strategy with long term benefits both for the companies themselves as well as society in general. At the forums Annual Meeting 2002 the initiative launched a joint CEO statement, Global Citizenship: the leadership challenges for CEOs and Boards. This joint statement recommends a framework for action that business executives can use to develop strategy for managing their company impact on society and its relationships with stakeholders. This statement was endorsed by the CEOs of over 40 multinational companies, including the CEOs of Accentor Deloitte Touch Thomas, Deutsche Bank,

Should ASOCIO have a role? Increasingly, for many organizations, CSR is an integral part of the way they operate and a key element in productivity and competitiveness, particularly through managing their impaction society and engaging stakeholders. Many business leaders wish to have a beneficial impact on the societies in which they operate, and offer some accountability to their stakeholders. CSR takes place at the level of the individual company, which has to take decisions on priorities, purpose and values strategy and engagement with its stakeholders. By engaging in dialogue with industry and government, ASOCIO can assist in; Supporting and stimulating association and greater understanding between the corporate, Government and community sectors regionally.

DEVELOPMENT OF CSR
2.1 HR DEVELOPMENT AND CSR As markets become increasingly competitive and the competition for talent grows more intense, human resources become a corselet of corporate competitiveness which can greatly influence a companys present and future development. The group a consistently subscribed to utmost to attract, develop and motivate its employees; to seize the initiative in this competitive marketplace through the continuous enhancement and reform of its human resources management mechanisms. The employees actively participate in team building exercises. Through their personal involvement and experience, employees develop a spirit of teamwork and co-operation, thereby enhancing the overall corporate culture.

Through effective teamwork and the implementation of comprehensive customer service management, the group seeks to provide the most economical and highest possible quality services to satisfy its customers needs.

2.2 The basic integrating CSR into HR management Human resources professionals are highly tuned to considering CSR from both a values based and a business case perspective. They work in business function that readily indentifies both the business benefits and the people benefits of fostering CSR alignment and integration. However, there is little guidance available to human resources leaders and HR management issue brief and roadmap who wish to advance CSR within the firm. This section provides a starting point for managers mapping out their strategic approach. It can serve as checklist for advanced managers who are committed to make a difference in this way and are at the beginning of their journey. Ideally these steps would be followed more or in practice this is often not possible and

~ 25 ~

indeed, some managers may have already implemented certain components. It is therefore entirely feasible to start from the middle of this list and work in all directions towards the end goal a CSR integrated company that is reaping the employee and business case benefits, while leveraging community sustainability.

This guide has been developed recognizing the constrained economic environment of our times; the tools and tactics proposed in this roadmap are those which can readily before going business.

Case analysis partly demonstrates, a CSR program can add significant business value. There are other business case benefits of CSR For example, operational cost savings from reduced materials use that can be significant, pointing to a financial rationale for the development of a strong CSR strategy and integration.

2.4 MANAGEMENT OF CSR IN CORPORATE

2.4.1 How is CSR organized? CSR starts with a commitment to integrated decision making systemic thinking that sees the interrelationship between top global stakeholders corporate department and previously segregated roles of individuals obliterating prior boundaries that blocked alignment with society, CSR can expand corporate vision, transform the corporate mission, inform strategy and motivate employees and all stakeholders to take the enterprise to the next level in ways that sustain resources for present and future generations. Stakeholders engagement is key procedural plank for CSR, with greater transparency within the corporation and outwards towards driving progress, enhanced risk management and accountability for results.

2.4.5 How is CSR managed? Sometimes companies segregate the CSR or sustainability or corporate citizenship function in a separate department and expect that department to handle CSR issues is isolation a recipe for CSR failure and enhanced rather than reduced risk. Other companies still consider CSR mainly a public relation exercise and relegate it to the PR or communication function- also a red flag that the company may not truly understand CSR. Indeed, while reaping brand benefits is a major driver for CSR, and critics are wrong to say that CSR is PR, overemphasizing above substance remains one of the common traps to be avoided by companies attempting to implement CSR. Real

~ 28 ~

CSR has resulted inn tangible benefits in terms of enhanced attention to human right by extractive industries and reduced instances of child and forced labor in supply chains, but those achievement take hard work and not glossy brochures. Because of the broad purview and authority of the legal function in many leading global business, and the fact that CSR begins with legal compliance, the legal department is often the focal point for /CSR in many companies, working to ensure an integrated CSR approach

2.4.3 How is CSR evaluated? CSR is evaluated both via internal audit and review mechanisms and a variety of external review, audit and verification mechanisms, some of which are within the ambit of company influence and some of which are less subject to company control. As an example of internal audit team which goes far beyond the implication that the world audit suggests, the audit function there has historically served as a source for future corporate leaders as well as critical check to ensure compliance with the spirit as well as the letter of the corporate code of conduct.

2.4.4 What are the roles of chair, board, CEO, CFO, shareholders, employees etc. in making CSR a companywide practice? The balance to be struck here is between an unmistakably honest and strong commitment and accountability from the top- the CEO and board and other executives and the distributed leadership necessary for CSR to truly permute the enterprise, while the CEO is and should be ultimately accountable, and it usually makes sense to have rigorous supporting mechanisms such as a top executive specifically charged and focused on CSR issues, as well as a board level committee dealing with matters of CSR, business ethics, and risks management, this should not be an excuse for avoiding similarly accountable leadership by other core business functions including the heads of business units and country leaders and the heads of critical functions such as manufacturing, procurement, logistics, quality control, legal, human resources, finance and the like. Indeed, within their own sphere of influences and activity each employee

~ 29 ~

and each participant in the enterprises extended value chain should know and be accountable for their CSR obligations.

2.4.5 How can we make CSR part of the corporate culture? As with the question of human rights and environmental compliance in society at large, this is in fact the most critical question. The law and market incentives are inherently limited- they can only go so far without risking counterproductive legal, practical or market failures. So even though (as discussed above) CSR involves compliance with law and is also enforced through both positive and negative incentives, both practical experience and academic research indicates that it can all is fruitless unless the culture and values of the company support CSR. To hear some business leaders or business school academic discuss the subject, we may come away with the impression that virtually any values are acceptable and that a values based company is simply one that has values- even if those values merely relate to short term shareholder and management wealth maximization. This is wrong that genuine leadership is inherently moral. So the values chosen matter tremendously and they must be values aligned with society (including the most universal statement of human values in history).

2.5.1 NGOs It is noticeable that the ranking of factors amongst of environmental NGOs and sociable NGOs are rather different when compared other stakeholders. Not surprisingly, the environmental NFOs rank good environmental performance and sociable and environmental policies as the most important two factors. There are also keen to see more stakeholder dialogue and good health and safety.

The sociable NGOs tend to priorities human resources and labor rather more. This may reflect the fact that a number of the response in this sector came from a range of labor organizations. In that regard, human rights are ranked as a higher priority than any other stakeholder group. Both NGOs groups see stakeholder dialogue and supply chain management and factory inspections as important.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

5.1 SAMPLE SIZE The expectation level for each competency was calculated by means of a questionnaire in which the plant manager, three senior managers, and the HR manager market their market their expectation levels. Since the sample size is only 5, even one outlier could impact the scores, but it assumed that this would be a serious defect since the five managers mentioned above are very experienced and know everything with respect to the Rohtak plant.

5.2 UNIVERSE The actual level was calculated by another questionnaire in which each department manager had a rate of sample of their department subordinates

~ 46 ~

(Officers and technicians) on the desired competencies. It is assumed that the rating was done fairly by the managers.

Recruitment tool pointed out some candidate as average but the company has employed them due to shop floor pressure.

5.3 TOOLS OF DATA COLLECTION 1. Interviews This method consists of conduction interviews with the jobholders and understanding their duties and functions. Further interviews could be conduct with the superior in order to validate the inputs given by the job holder. 2. JOB OBSERVATION This method is also known as shadowing. In this method, the person preparing the job description would shadow or follow the job holder for a whole day or two and understand the duties performed by time.

3. JOB QUESTIONNAIRE In this method, the job holders complete a comprehensive questionnaire and return it to the analyst. In case the management decides not to involve employee in preparation of their own description, the questionnaire is completed by the supervisor rather than the employee.

The methodology used in this project is the interview method. A series of interview were conducted with the various job holders for whom the description are being prepared. The similar interviews were conducted with their immediate supervisor. Based on these inputs a rough draft was prepared and submitted to the respective department manager for approval, reason behind this, The observation or shadowing method is very time consuming and it would take at least a week to complete one department exhaustively.

~ 47 ~

 The questionnaire method was initially adopted but could not be continued English and it did not seem feasible to translate the questionnaire into the vernacular language.

ANALYSIS
The asianpaints are biggest paints company and its 6 manufacturing plants in India here only the Rohtak Plant observation and findings are showing by me. The above thins are related to job observation and CSR are analyzed by from some interviews with job holders and society members.

Interviews with employees All the data which is collected by me is taken with the interviews with the employees. In this analysis I interact with the every department employees and find their duties and job areas. The data which is collected by me I show to whom and take the personal suggestion and duties which is missed by me and do the corrections in that.

Interviews with the supervisor In this analysis I meet to the supervisor of concern department and show the data and activities which are collected by me and the employee gave me. The supervisor is look up this and find his job observation and campantancies, and after that make a final report of that observation and findings which is collected me and analyzed those and take the permission and approval of that report for project matter.

Interviews with the society and companies This project is on corporate social responsibilities so I collect the different data of different companies. So for that the data which is collected by me I make that sure I interact with the Two companies and call to other companies and find the necessity of CSR in the society that the asianpaints what can do for them and give the final report to the company. Inputs from CSR net surfings and [MF] [MFG][10]

~ 49 ~

It is the master file of the company which is found on the omnidocs. It is the company official software. In this software total 22 manual like production, training, manufacturing, packing, HR, Accounts, administrative . , manuals.

Final consolidation After analyzed all the data A final report prepare by me and show that to the function manager and take the approval of that report and submitted this to whom.

Focus on CSR Knowledge The number (And percentage) of papers by the categories of research focus are

presented in table 1 the data indicate that, confirming our expectations, articles focusing on environmental and ethical subjects dominate CSR research in Management accounting for 36 and 31 per cent of the articles respectively. The remaining categoriesStakeholders and social, account for 18 and 15 percent of the papers respectively. Arguably, this reflects the relatively more developed status of the environmental and ethical subjects in their orientation to ecological science philosophy respectively, as well as their status as management issues.

OBSERVATION AND RECOMMENDATION

7.1 OBSERVATION 1. Recruitment process is very lengthy. Candidates who are come for selection, they pass a set of interviews. There are three round of interviews are taken in the asianpaints selection process. One is HR interview, second is technical interview which is taken by the department senior manager or manager, and the last interview is taken by the plant head.

2. The question paper for interviews is very outdated and old, people who have come for interview, many people witness that earlier than they reattempt the paper yet again.

3. The asianpaints is largest paint company so the corporate social responsibilities is show high and it follow so a lot of CSR activities, but the asianpaints Rohtak plant are not put in order more CSR activities, it developed only environmental, health and safety program and it reelection for future additional CSR activities for the social order and atmosphere.

4. Competency Mapping The gap between the technician and officer level is good. Here the standard level and the actual scores are very high. All the technician and officers are high skilled and they gives the better productivity. Gap between that is as like the standard stability of the employee is 2.5 but the actual stability is 3.2. Here 2.5 of standard level is keep by me and analyzed by fulfilling the questionnaire. Some standard and actual competency is here are showing:

Actual score 3.24 3.67 3.85 3.65

7.2 RECOMMENDATION 1. Interview procedure is completed in three rounds HR, Technician & plant manager would be taken in order of (HR, Technical & Technical & plant head). Because of the Rohtak plant is newly established plant and there are need of the employees is immense. When plat is fully established and the production capacity is maximum than it may be follow again. 2. The training program which is organized by the HR department is organized after completing the work time of employees cause of this employees are not stand and they cant take the training and not developed his workability and skills. 3. The asianpaints can provide technical training for the local ITI and polytechnics for increasing their self development and their abilities.
