ABSTRACT
The project work entitled Employees attitude towards the
organization with special reference to the Kenana Sugar
Company, UP the various factors that are concerned towards
the attitude of the employees.

The analysis has been made mainly based on the primary data
that is by the employees opinion survey method. The researcher
has taken a sample size of 180 and has used the stratified
random sampling method to select the samples from the total
population.
The study gives the opinion of employees about all the H.R.
functions of Kenana Sugar Company, employment conditions,
wages

and

incentives,

interpersonal

relationship,

working

conditions, management practices, etc.

The researcher has used percentage analysis and CHI-Square
test, and the study reveals that there is no relationship between
JOB ENRICHMENT educational qualification of the respondents,
and there is no relationship between length of service of the
respondents, and welfare facilities, and there is no relationship
between the salary of the respondents and welfare facilities. The
study has also revealed that most of the respondents have a

positive attitude towards the welfare facilities, management

practices and employment conditions, WELFARE FACILITIES,
INTER PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP, WORKING CONDITION the
researcher has given suggestions for its
improvement which includes suggestion schemes which may be
transparent and promotions which may be made both based on
seniority and performance to a certain level in the organizational
hierarchy.

INTRODUCTION
Attitude:

The

importance

of

attitude

in

understanding

psychological
phenomenon was given formal recognition early in the history of
social psychology. From the time of the concepts entry in to the
language of psychology until now, interest in attitude has been
strong and growing. However, over the years attitudes have
been studied with differing emphasis and methods.
Concept of Attitude: It is necessary to be precise in defining
attitudes, because the variety of published definitions and
descriptions is almost endless. Like any other concept, attitude
may also be defined in two ways, Conceptual and Operational.
There is quite a difference in the conceptual definition of the
term attitude, and divergent points of view regarding the
concept of attitude have developed.

Major aspects: When the term first entered the field of social
phenomenon, it was natural to conceive of attitude as a
tendency, set or readiness to respond to some social object. For
the first time, ALLPORT noted the definition of attitude, which he
had

observed

contained

the

words

readiness,

set

or

disposition to act. Even ALLPORT has used these terms in

defining attitude. He defines attitude as follows:

Attitude is a mental and neural state of readiness organized

through
experience, exerting a directive or dynamic influence upon the
individuals response to all objects and situations with which it is
related

Features of Attitude
Attitudes affect behavior of an individual by putting him
ready to respond favorably to things in his environment.
Attitudes are acquired through learning over a period of
time. The process of learning attitudes starts right from the
childhood and continues throughout the life of a person.
Attitudes are invisible as they constitute a psychologied
phenomenon which cannot be observed directly. They can
be observed by observing the behavior of an individual.
Attitudes are pervasive and every individual has some kind
of attitude towards the objects in his environment. In fact,
attitudes are forced in the socialization process and may
relate to anything in the environment.

Attitude, Opinion and Belief

An opinion is generally the expression of ones judgment of a
particular set of facts, an evaluation of the
circumstances presented to him. Thurstone defines opinion as
a response to a specifically limited stimulus, but the response is
certainly

influenced

by

the

predisposition

with,

with

the

individual is operating, that is, the attitude structure. A

difference can also be made between attitude and belief. A belief
is an enduring organization of perceptions and cognitions about

some aspects of individual world. Thus, belief is a hypothesis

concerning the nature of
objects, more particularly, concerning ones judgments of the
probability regarding the nature. In this sense, belief is the
cognitive component of attitude which reflects the manner in
which an object is perceived. The difference between attitude,
opinion, and belief exists on conceptual basis. Most researchers
believe that these three terms are so closely tied that it is
difficult to separate them except on a limited conceptual basis.

In the literature, often, there is a considerable amount of

overlapping in these three terms. Most psychologists, however,
believe that attitudes are more fundamental to human behavior
than are the related aspects. For this reason, more attempts
have been made to analyze attitudes as compared to others.
Obviously attitudes are an important consideration because of
their central position in the process of transforming work
requirements in to efforts.
Attitude alone do not influence behavior but these acts with
other factors in the individual influencing behavior, such as
personality, perception, motivation, etc. Further, attitudes are
also affected by the individual dimension as well as the objects,
persons, and ideas. Attitudes have been through as serving four
functions and there by influencing the behavior. These are
instrumental, ego defensive, value orientation and knowledge.
Instrumental: Attitudes serve as a means to reach a
desired goal or to avoid an undesired one. Instrumental
attitude are aroused by the activation of a need or cues that
are associated with the attitude object and arouse favorable
or unfavorable feelings.
Ego-Defensive: The ego-defensive functions of attitude
acknowledge the importance of psychological thought.
Attitude may be acquired by facing threats in the external
world or becoming aware of his own unacceptable impulses.

 Value Orientation: The value-orientation function takes in

to account attitudes that are held because they express a
persons self-image, or by cues that engage the persons
values and make them salient to him.
Knowledge: The knowledge function of attitude is based
on a persons need to maintain a stable, organized and
meaningful structure of the world.
Attitude that provides a standard against which a person
evaluates the aspects of his world and serve as the
knowledge function too.

These functions of attitudes affect the individuals way of

interpreting the information coming to him. Since attitudes
intervene between work requirements and work responses,
information about how people feel about their jobs can be quite
useful in the predication about work response. Thus, these types
of attitudes can portray areas of investigation for making the
individual and the organization more compatible.

Factors in Attitude Formation

The attitudes are learned. Though there are different approaches
as how learning works and is acquired by an individual, generally
it is held that individuals learn things from the environment in
which they interact. Thus, for attitude formation, all these factors
must be taken in to account from which people learn. Such
factors may be analyzed in terms of groups starting from the
family as a group, an individual moves in a close group, then to
longer groups, and finally to the society as a whole. A part from
these groups, the individuals psychology which makes up
particularly his personality, is also responsible for behavior and
attitudes.

Methods of Attitude Change

There are various methods through which a positive change in
attitudes may be brought. In the social context, Cohen has
suggested four methods for attitude change. They are
Communication of additional information.
Approval and disapproval of a particular attitude.
Group influence, and
Inducing engagement in discrepant behavior.

In some or the other, all these methods involve introducing

discrepancies among the elements making up the individuals
attitudes in the hope that the elements will be rebalanced
through the effective component of the attitudes. From the
organization point of view, a Manager can take following actions
in brining change in attitudes of its organizational members.
Group action
Persuasion through leadership
Persuasion through communication and
Influence of total situation.
These actions involve the analysis of different variables affecting
a particular action.

Values and Attitudes

Some researchers see values as consisting of large sets of
related attitudes. For example, Fishbein and Ajzen have
included two components in attitudes-informational, emotional.
Thus, they have taken values as a part of attitudes. However,
some differences exist between values and attitudes. Attitudes
are specific and related to distinct objects; people, or ideas.
Values are more general than attitudes, values often contain
statement of goodness or badness associated with the attitudes
which people hold. Values
are, then, beliefs about which attitudes we should have or how
we should behave.

Values and Behaviour

Behaviour of people is influenced by the values which they hold,
particularly in terms of those stimuli which have some value
orientation in the organizational context, understanding the
influence of individual value system on the behaviour of
individuals in the following manner:
Values

influence an individual perception about the

problems he faces and consequently the decision he makes

to overcome those problems.

Values influences the way in which an individual looks at

the other individual and groups of individuals, that is,
interpersonal relationship. Values become the basis of such
interpersonal elationship interactions.

Individuals judge organizational success as well as its

achievement of the basis of their value system. Thus, for
some individuals, organizational success may be in the form
of high profit learning irrespective of the means adopted
where as, this may be a mean thing for other individuals.
Individuals set limit for the determination of what is ethical
or unethical behaviour for themselves as well as for the
others.
Values determine the extent to which individuals accept
organizational pressures and goals. If these do not match
with the value held by them, they thwart the organizational
pressures and goals, and even leave the organization.

Employees Attitudes towards the Organization

Attitudes are not the same as values, but the two are
interrelated. You can see this by looking at the three components
of an attitude: cognition, affect and behavior. The belief that
discrimination is wrong is a value statement.

Types of Attitudes
A person can have thousands of attitudes, but
Organizational Behaviour focuses our attention on a very limited
number of work-related attitudes. These work-related attitudes
tap positive or negative evaluations that employees hold about
aspects of their work environment. Most of the research in OB
has been concerned with three attitudes: job satisfaction, job
involvement, and organizational commitment.

Job Satisfaction
The term job satisfaction to an individuals general attitude
towards his or her job. A person with a high level of job
satisfaction holds positive attitudes about their job, while a
person who is dissatisfied with his or her job holds negative
attitudes about the job. When people speak of employee
attitudes, more often mean job satisfaction.

Job Involvement
The term job involvement is a more recent addition to the OB
literature while there isnt complete agreement over what the
tem means. A workable definition states that job involvement
measures the degree to which a person identifies him with his or
her job and considers his or her perceived performance level
important to self worth. Employees with a high level of job
involvement strongly identify with and really care about the kind
of work they do.

Organizational Commitment
The third job attitude is organizational
commitment, which is defined as a state in which an employee
identifies with a particular organization and its goals, and wishes
to maintain membership in the organization. So, high job
involvement means identifying with ones specific job, while high
organizational

commitment

means

identifying

with

ones

employing organization.

Attitudes and Consistency

Research has generally concluded that people seek consistency
among their attitudes and between their attitudes and their
behaviour.

This means

that

individuals

seek

to

reconcile

divergent attitudes and align their attitudes and behaviour so

that they appear rational and consistent. When there is an in
consistency, forces are initiated to return the individual to

an equilibrium state.

Cognitive Dissonance Theory

This theory sought to explain the linkage between attitudes and
behaviour.

Dissonance

means

an

inconsistency.

Cognitive

dissonance refers to any incompatibility that an individual might

perceive between two or more of his or her attitudes, or between
his or her behaviour and attitudes.

Moderating Variables
The most powerful moderates have been found to be the
importance of the attitude; specially, its accessibility, whether
there exist social pressures, and whether a person has direct
experience with the attitude. Important attitudes are ones that
reflect fundamental values, self-interest, or identification with
individuals or groups that a person values. Attitude that
individuals consider important tend to show a strong relationship
to behaviour.

attitudes can be helpful to managers in attempting to predict

Attitude and Workforce Diversity

Managers are increasingly concerned with changing employee
attitude to reflect shifting perspectives on racial, gender, and
other diversity issues. A comment to a co-worker of the opposite
sex, which 20 years ago might have been taken as a complaint,
can today become a career-limiting episode. The majority of
large U.S. employees and a substantial proportion of medium
sized and smaller ones sponsor some sort of diversity training.
Some examples are, Police Officers in Escondido, California,
receive 36 hours of diversity training for their 12,000 employees.
The Federal Aviations Administration sponsors a mandatory 8
hours diversity seminar for
employees of its western pacific region.

Job Satisfaction
Job satisfaction is one of the important factors which have drawn
attention

of

managers

in

the

organization

as

well

as

academicians Various studies have been conducted to find out

the factors which determine job satisfaction and the way it
influences productivity in the organization. Though, there is no
conclusive evidence that job satisfaction affects productivity
directly because productivity depends on so many variables, it is
still a prime concern for managers. Job satisfaction is the mental
feeling of favorableness which an individual has about his job.

Dubrins has defined job satisfaction in terms of pleasure and

contentment when he says that.

Determinants of Job Satisfaction

While analyzing various determinants of job satisfaction, we
have to keep in mind that all individuals do not receive the same
degree of satisfaction though they perform the same job in the
same job environment and at the same time. Therefore, it
appears that besides the nature of job and job environment,
there are individual variables which affect job satisfaction. Thus
all those factors which provide a fit among individual variables,
nature of job and situational variables determine the degree of
job satisfaction. Let us see what these factors are,

Individual Factors
Individuals have certain expectation from their jobs. If there
expectations are met from the jobs, they feel satisfied. These
expectations are based on an individuals level of education, age,
and other factors.
1. Level of Education: Level of education of an individual
is a factor which determines the degree of job satisfaction.
For example, several studies have found the negative
correlation between the level of education, particularly
higher level of education and job satisfaction.

2. Age: Individuals experience different degrees of job

satisfaction at different stages of their life. Job satisfaction
is high at the initial stage, get gradually reduced, starts
rising up to certain stage and finally dips to a low degree.
3. Other factors: Besides the above two factors, there are
other individual factors which affect job satisfaction. If an
individual does not have favorable social and family life, he
may not feel happy at the work place. Similarly, other
personal problems associated with him may affect his level
of job satisfaction.

Effect of his Job Satisfaction

Job satisfaction has a variety of effects. The effects may be seen
in the context of an individuals physical and mental health,
productivity, absenteeism, and turnover.

Physical and Mental Health

The degree of job satisfaction affects an individuals physical and
mental health. Since, job satisfaction is a typed of mental
feeling,

its

favorableness

or

unfavourableness

affects

the

individual psychologically which for example, Lawler has

pointed out that drug abuse, alcoholism, and mental and
physical health results from psychologically harmful jobs.

Improving Job Satisfaction

Job satisfaction plays a significant role in the organization.
Therefore, Managers should take concrete steps to improve the
level of job satisfaction. These steps may be in the form of job redesigning to make the job more interesting and challenging,
improving quality of work life, linking rewards with performance,
and improving overall organizational climate.

Attitude Measurement
Attitudes are subjective attributes of people. They can be
regarded

as

construct

in

the

sense

that

they

are

conceptualizations of human statistical evidence. Thus, people

may vary along a number of attitudinal dimensions.
Keeping this measurement aspect in to consideration, the
attitudes might be defined operationally by describing the
measurement systems that psychologists use to measure
attitudes. Attitude measurement, developed largely by social
psychologists is concerned with the efforts to tap these attitudes
as they are characteristics of individuals. There are many
methods of attitude measurement. The Thurston type of scaling
goes back to the early work of Thurston and Chive, which
collected a large number of statements relating to the area in
which attitudes were to be measured. This statement may be
relating to any object about which attitudes were to be
measured. The statements are both favorable and unfavorable
and are placed in 11 piles, with most favorable one being placed
in pile 11. Other statements are placed in between their position
depending on the degree of favorability or unfavorability.
The scale is then presented to the respondents. Each respondent
checks the statement in pulling together numerous methods
dealings with attitude measurement. They are:

Self Report
Indirect Tests
Direct Observation Techniques
Psychology Reaction Techniques
However attitude measurement of employees in an organization
is most commonly carried out with self-respect questionnaires
uses several scaling methods. There are three types of attitude
scaling which are commonly used in attitude measurement. They
are Thurston type of scale, Likert scale, and semantic differential.
With which he agrees his attitude score is then based on the
average or the median scale of the statements that he has
checked. Soon after Thurston scale, Likert experimented with
certain other varieties of attitude scales. Likerts attitude scale
uses five points. The statements relating to the measurement of
attitude is given to the person concerned and he is asked to
check one of the five points given for every statement. These
points show the degree of agreement or disagreement with the
statement. The Likert scale is considered better as compared to
Thurston because of several positive facts.
For example, in this scaling, there is no much problem in making
numerous statements which will show both positive and negative
degree. The semantic differential, an attitude scaling technique

that lends itself to various applications, was developed by

Orgood, Suci and Tannenbaum. Therefore, an employee who has
a high level of job satisfaction tends to bear attitudes, which are
favorable to the organization. Balancing the positives with the
negatives is important so that the employees will not be
disappointed and become a problem that would have been
avoided from the beginning. Attitudes cannot be changed
drastically or quickly. There is a reason why people have
attitudes; it is a part of them. To change a person takes patience
and lots and lots of stalls, especially in a boss-employee
relationship where it is more formal. Sometimes, all it takes is a
warning in simple words which is to change an unfavorable
attitude.
When an employee discloses a mental health problem, try to
work out a reasonable accommodation. Give him/her time off
from work or a modified work schedule, make physical changes
to the work place, or adjust supervisory instructions or training.
Many mental health problems are highly treatable and cause
only temporary disruptions at work.
If an employee with a chronically negative attitude suddenly
claims a
mental disability, employers have the right to ask for medical
certification and/or, in some situations, a second opinion.
However, credible testimony from privacy. Check with an

attorney before requesting these. Strike before the iron gets hot
by including conduct problems in your employee hand book.
Develop a policy that clearly delineates the types of behaviour
which are not acceptable in your workplace. The above
mentioned examples are some which can change unfavorable
attitude to a favorable one.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
LITERATURE SURVEY
From the Wall Street Journal Online:
A majority of U.S. employees say they are satisfied with their job
and nearly half feel pride in their career, according to a recent,
Harris Interactive Poll. Still, many U.S. employees dislike their
jobs, suffer from burnout and dont have good feelings about
their employers and Senior Managers, the poll shows. Employees
in small organizations are more likely to have positive attitude
towards their jobs, their employers and their top managers.
Of people working for small employers, 54% of those polled say
they are satisfied with their job, and company. 38% of those
working for large employers feel they are at dead-end jobs,
compared with 24% of those working for companies feel this is
the best organizational to work for only 25% of the people
working for large organizations, compared with for small
employers, believe that the top manages display integrity and
morality. This survey also shows that younger workers have
much more negative view of their job than older workers. Among
the older workers, 59% say a good deal of their pride comes from
their work and careers, compared with just 37% of the younger
workers. Likewise, among 64% of the older workers, only 47% of
the

younger

workers

really

care

about

the

fate

of

the

organization for which they work. Overall, while 595 of the

employees are satisfied with their jobs, that two out of every five
41% of the workers arent satisfied. In addition, one-third of the
workers feel they are in dead-end jobs, and trying to cope with
feeling of burn out. Burn out is much more prevalent among the
workers ages between 18-24 years, 47% report feeling burned
out, compared with 28% of the older workers.
Ms. B. Nagalakshmi, 2006, had done a project on Employee
Attitude towards the Organisation in Lakshmi Machine Works
Limited and she suggested that Management/HR department
may be changing the procedures or approaches to improve the
employees positive attitude towards them by participation from
them.

general which will lead to prosperity of the company through

work life.
Ganguli (1964) has argued that the factors that determine
performance of the workers in an industrial job can be classified
under three heads.

1. Personal factors
2. Work factors
3. Environmental (physical and social) factors
Personal Factors refer to skills of workers and the degree of
motivation that determine the extent to which he will apply his
skill to the job. Work factor refers to tools and equipment,
method of work and materials used. Examples of environmental
factors are (a) physical lighting, ventilation, etc. (b) social and
psychological nature of leadership (supervisory and managerial),
social climate in the shop, nature of the group formation
amongst members, etc and (c) Nature of organizational controls,
communication patterns, etc.
Mr. Vijayanand, 1999, had done a project on job satisfaction,
among the employees in Sakthi Sugars and he suggested that
the organization has to concentrate more on labour measures
and also with regard to the maintenance of buildings.
Mr.Vasudevan.C, 1999, had done a project on job satisfaction
among the workers in ELGI Electric and Industries Limited and
he suggested that the organization may provide better working
conditions, can reduce the hours of work and provide more
career advancement opportunities.
According to Vroom(1964), productivity depends upon two major

variables viz., employees job performance and resources

strategic and coordinate systems largely depends up on the

human performance. Performance of a worker on a task or job is
a direct function of his motivation.
According to Hark Mantel(1971), the nature of the relationship
between job characteristics and employee reactions to their
work(including satisfaction, performance, and absenteeism) will
depend upon the need status of the employees.
Maslow proposes that employees emerge in a hierarchical
fashion and it is important for the organization to satisfy their
needs, failing which the employees may exhibit non productivity
and effectiveness of the organization.
Fleishman (1953) has studied the relationship of supervisory
behaviour with the productivity and morale of the sub ordinates,
superiors create certain climate in their department and high
consideration results in high productivity and morale.
Mr. R.K. Selvam has made A Study on Worker Expectations on
Labour Welfare Facilities in 1998. In TTK Prestige Limited, the
sample size was 60. He used the interview schedule for primary
data collection; the secondary data was collected through

discussion with officials of the Personnel Department from the

data it was found that almost every one were satisfied.
Mr. Rajaprabakaran has conducted a research on The Study on
level of Motivating the Employees with special reference to TTK
Prestige Limited in 2002. The sample size was 300 and he used
the interview schedule for the primary data collection. He found
that 28% of employees were motivated with the working
conditions of the company. All of them were motivated with the
first-aid facilities.
Argyris (1957) identified a style of leadership ranging from
immaturity.
He holds that the effective leader or manager will help people to
move from a style of immaturity or dependent, towards a style of
maturity.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
INTRODUCTION
Research is an active, diligent and systematic process of inquiry
in order to discover, interpret, and revise facts, events, behaviors
or theories or to make practical applications with the help of
such facts, laws or theories. The tem research is also used to
describe the collection of information about a particular subject.
Employees attitude towards the organization should be known
by the
entire organization to reduce the grievance. The main objective
is to find out the number of employees who are having positive
attitude and or negative attitude and what tends to the same.
Here, the general employee opinion survey method has been
followed. The questionnaires were directly handed over to the
employees of the organization for their responses.

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

To know the employees attitude towards the organization
To know the reasons for the employees positive attitude
To know the reasons for the employees negative attitude
To know the employees expectations from the organization

To make suggestions to improve the attitude of the employees

to the management.
SAMPLING METHOD
The sample size taken is 180 which has been selected through
Stratified

Random Sampling.
When the markedly heterogeneous group is first sub-divided into
groups or stratas in such a manner that all items in any
particular group are similar with regard to the characteristic
under consideration. From each such strata items are chosen at
random. The number of items taken from each group may be in
proportion to its relative strength, the sample so formed is called
as stratified.

TOOLS FOR DATA COLLECTION

Questionnaire is the main tool for data collection. Questionnaire
has been distributed to the employees directly and a discussion
also has been done.

STATISTICAL TOOLS USED

The following are the statistical tools used in this project to arrive
specific results.

Percentage Analysis:
Percentage analysis is a statistical tool, which is used to identify
the

in testing a hypothesis that provides a set of theoretical
frequencies with which observed frequencies are compared. In
general, CHI Square test is applies to those problems in which we
study whether the frequency with which a given event has
occurred is scientifically different from the one as expected
theoretically. The measure of CHI-Square enables us to find out
the degree of discrepancy between observed frequencies and
theoretical frequencies and a theoretical frequency is due to
error of sampling or due to change.
CHI-Square=(Oi-i2)/Ei

LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY:

This study has some limitations. They are Only 180 sample size
has been taken for this study. So, if this study is conducted to
maximum persons, it may give accurate overall attitude of the
employees.
It is done in SAKTHI SUGARS, so it cannot resemble the entire
population working in the whole industry.

DISCUSSIONS
Job Security is a potential tool for the motivation of the
employees which in this study shows that, the employees have a
negative attitude towards it. The management may make the
employees understand that they are the partners of the business
and the employees organization life depends up on the
constructive contributions made by them.
Only half of the respondents are satisfied with the medical
facilities and safety procedures provided in the organization
which means that the remaining half of them are not satisfied.
Therefore, the management with regard to the medical facilities
along with ESI may offer a minimal amount exclusively for the
medical expenditure as a special package for different levels of
employees. This may motivate them and restrict them to avail
leave. As per the respondents opinion, safety procedures
followed are not up to the mark which also is one of the reason
for regular absenteeism. The respondents also feel that the leave
facilities provided are also not adequate. Management in this
regard may identify the ways by which leave facilities may be
improved without disturbing the regular schedule of work, by
giving restricted holidays, by increasing the number of paid
holidays etc.

Workers Participation in Management is one of the criteria which

do not have a good satisfaction from most of the employees in
any of the organization. This also happens to be true in this
organization, which reduces the morale and motivation of the
employees.

Therefore, the management may formulate strategies based on

the
Workers Participation in Management bill or prepare a tailormade guideline for the extent of participation by the workers in
the management decisions because when decision marker
execute, the execution proves worthy.
