 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
My internship at Deepak Nitrite Limited, mahuakhera ganj kashipur was a great
exposure to the industry. After going through my summer training, I had a
firsthand experience of how an industry as well as HR department functions.

INTRODUCTION OF PROJECT
This project is about the HR Policies in Deepak Nitrite Limited. The HR
Policies in an organization helps every individual to raise his/her potential in all
facets by helping him to be satisfied and secured about his present and future.

PROJECT TITLE
The title of the project is HR Policies and Its Implementation in Deepak Nitrite
Limited. As the name indicates it is the study of the HR Policies prevalent in
the organization.

ORGANISATION
Deepak Nitrite began with a vision to support the countrys drive towards self
sufficiency and import substitution in 1970. What began as a fully indigenous
sodium nitrite and sodium nitrate plant in mahuakhera ganj kashipur, has now
grown into a globally proactive company with a presence in over 20 countries ,
including USA, European Union & East European nations, Japan, ASEAN
countries, South Korea and South America. This has led to a paradigm shift
from low value bulk chemicals and intermediates to high value fine and
specialty chemicals based on our core expertise as well as lateral and vertical
integration of our existing products, exploring downstream derivatives.

With a strong focus on customer satisfaction, the company has set up Custom
Manufacturing services to meet specific needs of end users. Our capabilities
extend to the manufacture of high-value, specialty products either based on our
own end products or developed especially for our users.

DNL has been ranked amongst the top 500 Body corporates by Dun and
Bradstreet for the last three years.

 ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION

Deepak Nitrite began with a vision to support the countrys drive towards self

 QUALITY AND ENVIORNMENT

At DNL quality is the keyword in every activity and a constant endeavour to

achieve standards of the highest levels has been an ongoing commitment from
the time of its inception as well as recognition and acknowledgement of this
devotion. This achievement has been set as a benchmark to go forward in
excellence.

For DNL it is an ongoing process to continuously explore new product

applications, competitive technologies and potential markets. DNL has scaled
this success with its trademark of commitment and quality.

The commitment towards this is apparent from the fact that DNL has a total
manpower of 85 persons supporting the Quality and Technical functions at its
various manufacturing facilities.

All its products are manufactured in accordance with the current acceptable
world standards. All its manufacturing facilities have been upgraded conforming
to the current ISO: 9001:2000 standard, from the earlier ISO: 9002:1994
standard, and are now certified by KPMG for ISO: 9001:2000 standard..

The major environmental issues addressed are:

o Ongoing manufacturing processes are studied in detail with a view to

minimize generation of liquid/gaseous waste streams as a part of
continuous improvement.
o A specially constituted Pollution control Cell at our R&D centre is
actively engaged in developing technologies for environment protection
at our manufacturing plants. Our Pollution Cell in fact also helps out
smaller industrial units that do not have capabilities and infrastructure for
such jobs. The efforts of our team are not aimed at just pollution
minimization but also to conserve energy, improve process yields and
product quality.

The above practices help in achieving strict compliance with statutory standards
laid down by the regional Pollution Control Authorities for plant effluent and
emission quality.

 FACILITIES
Deepak Nitrite Limited has five manufacturing facilities at different locations in
the Western part of India that have a logistic advantage being within six hours
from a major port.

The company manufactures Inorganic, Oraganic and Fine & Speciality

chemicals. There are two units in the state of Mahuakhera ganj kashipur and
three units in the state of Maharashtra. The Inorganic Chemicals are produced at
one of the facilities in Mahuakhera ganj kashipur while the Organic and Fine &
Speciality chemicals are produced at the other facilities. One of the facilities is
devoted to the processes Hydrogenation and Reductive Alkylation.

Each of the facilities has DCS controlled operations. The company's main
strengths are Nitration, Chlorination and Hydrogenation.

The company also has the technical capabilities to carry out the following
reactions at its plants.

1. Alkali Fusion - High Temperature Fusion Reactions

2. Alkylation Hydrogenation
3. Amination Nitration
4. Chloronation - 0xidative Bromination
5. Diazotisation - Reductive alkylation
6. Esterification Sulphonation
7. Acylation - High Pressure/ Temperature Oxidations

The manufacturing facilities produce a range of chemicals that cater to a

spectrum of industries like Pharmaceuticals, Colourants, Agrochemicals,
Cosmetics, Water Treatment & Corrosion Prevention, Rubber and Refineries.
The facilities are equipped to handle bulk hazardous raw materials like
Benzene, Toluene, Xylene, Ammonia, Concentrated Nitric Acid, Concentrated
Sulphuric Acid, Chlorine and Sulphur Trioxide.

Each manufacturing facility has a proper ETP to ensure that the COD and BOD
levels of the discharge are maintained as per the prescribed standards set by the
Pollution Control Boards.

 RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

At Deepak Nitrite, R&D is the key to survival and growth, given that a fast
paced global environment results in ever changing customer needs and new
products and processes drain away competitiveness.

From mere quality issues, Deepak Nitrite has now moved into the field of
customized chemicals, newer technologies, expanding applications that satisfy
customers.

To that end we have a central R&D facility, the Deepak Research &
Development Centre (DRDC) at Pune that has been approved by the
Government of India., Dept. of Science & Technology. DRDC has a
sophisticated analytical laboratory and facilities for testing new technologies
and new products.

A team of over 30 persons, including PhDs and Chemical Engineers are

supported by a technical services group of Chemists / Chemical Engineers at the
manufacturing divisions. The Centre works closely with reputed universities
and research institutes of India like the University Institute of Chemical
Technology Mumbai, National Chemical Laboratory - Pune and the Indian
Institute of Chemical Technology Hyderabad.

Approved by the Government of India., Dept. of Science & Technology, the

centre is primarily engaged in research and process development for new
products as well as optimization of the manufacturing processes for existing
products. The pilot plant of the company ensures solutions for extremely
demanding customers.

FORMULATING POLICIES

There are five principal sources for determining the content and meaning of
policies:

1. Past practice in the organization.

2. Prevailing practice in rival companies.

3. Attitudes and philosophy of founders of the company as also its directors

and the top management.

4. Attitudes and philosophy of middle and lower management.

5. The knowledge and experience gained from handling countless personnel

problems on day to day basis.

25
BENEFITS OF HR POLICIES
Organizations should have personnel policies as they ensure the following
benefits:
a. The work involved in formulating policies requires that the management
give deep thought to the basic needs of both the organization and the
employees. The management must examine its basic convictions as well
as give full consideration to the prevailing practices in other
organizations.
b. Established policies ensure consistent treatment of all personnel
throughout the organization. Favoritism and discrimination are, thereby,
minimized.
c. Continuity of action is assured even though top management personnel
change. The CEO of a company may possess a very sound personnel
management philosophy. He/she may carry the policies of the
organization in his/her head, and he she may apply them in an entirely
fair manner. But what happens when he/she retires? The tenure of office
of nay manager is finite. But the organization continues. Policies promote
stability.
d. Policies serve as a standard of performance. Actual results can be
compared with the policy to determine how well the members of the
organization are living upto the professional intentions.
e. Sound policies help build employee motivation and loyalty. This is
especially true where the policies reflect established principles of fair
play and justice and where they help people grow within the organization.
f. Sound policies help resolve intrapersonal, interpersonal and intergroup
conflicts.

26

opportunities to every employee to realize his/her full potential.
