the pertinent regulatory requirements with due diligence to sustainable business

Every organization is established for their own objectives. To achieve they have to work hard

---------2---------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PRACTICAL ATTACHMENT
Organizational structure is the most important part for office to achieve its objectives and
mission
All departments in this organization are related to each other. The other department can control
the activity of other. Also, on their daily activities they must report to the body which controls
each department. Also, they control each other to minimize the problem on job, to be fair and
acceptable by every department. To achieve the objective and vision they obey responsibility for
the job given to all departments. Let we see to how they control each other;
The customer service officer reports the daily activity to the A/senior customer service officer.
Also pass all physical tickets done on transaction daily to the branch controller to ensure their
activity by comparing the recorded transaction on the system. A/senior customer service reports
his or her activity to the customer service manager. Customer service manager reports to branch
manager. Branch controller passes all tickets to senior branch controller after ensured the balance
on physical counted tickets and on system became equal. Then senior branch controller again
checks and report to branch manager. So finally, all activity in bank is controlled by the manager
of the bank.

1.5. Problem observed that affect the organization at current time and its critical
issue

1.6. Suggested solution for the identified problems (to minimize problem)
The possible solutions that I suggested for the problem are the following
It should full fill all the necessary materials which are technologically improved to
facilitate its service
The organization should have provided a quality service for its customer to being a
good competitor in the market
The organization appraisal system should be based on efficiency and effectiveness
that means resource consumption way should be wise and manageable.
To solve the problem a lack of data about historical back ground of the organization,
I advise to gather some information from head office and try to document with the
help of supervisor.

2 Duties related to customer service – Opening account, pay cash& receive cash
As a department member I also have the responsibilities of performing the activity of the
department. Based on the general activities, I perform the following specific activities as an
apprentice. When I was participating at Oromia Bank in Sagure branch
From the first day that I have started practical work on Customer service department;
There are some problems which affect me on my activities of 15 days. Some of these problems
are from the organization and some are from customers. As organization some the problems are
lack of seats, lack of user (access) for me and others are the problem of light and network those

hinder my activities not to serve customer properly. From customers some customers don’t care
about criteria’s to be fulfilled properly rather than looking only about the service.
• Some of them don’t sign on the ticket and some signature on the ticket and on the book
are different
• No correct order of sender name which is difficult to serve customer
• Some are careless to respect the employees and rule
• Some of them bring incorrect account which the system is not read
The major problems that face the department are the following.
• There is a big internet connection problem or network problem, especially in the first one
week’s I started my practical attachment.
• There is inefficiency of some materials like chair, table and so on.
• Some workers have problems on their behavior and didn’t give proper service to
customer.
Asking concerned body to get enough networks that help to provide proper service for
customer.
To solve the problems of inefficiency of materials by asking additional budget for the
department and purchasing these materials and make available for the department.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PRACTICAL ATTACHMENT
Some misbehavior that disturbs working condition and improperly, must be punished
---------10---------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PRACTICAL ATTACHMENT
Rationales of the practical attachment are the practical reason to decide how to act on the
attachments some of the following listed is reason of practical attachment.
• It is for the case that the apprentice to realize the theory in class to real world through
practice.
• It is for that the apprentice should compare and contrast the economic thought with
practical work
• It is that how the problem is identified and the solution is found
• It is for that the apprentice to check the relation he/she has with others on work etc.
Since the main objective of this practical attachment course is producing qualified, confident and
competent students, it has the following major significances.
• Benefiting students, by improving their skill and knowledge, increasing problem solving
capacity, changing attitude and for preparing graduation paper
• It will minimize training cost incurred by employers
• Benefiting university in such a way that can produce well trend man power, gathering
information for problem solving researches
• It develops student research making skill
My organization and my activities are somewhat relevant in enabling me to observe the vision,
mission, objective and SWOT analysis of the organization and problem of the organization with
their suggested solution and major responsibilities of the department. It also helps me write the
practical attachment report in good manner. In addition, the organization and my activities are
related to know how the hierarchies the administration level and branch for head the office.

3.4. Applicability of the theories and other in class on the real world or practical work
environment
Applicability of theories in practical work environment is very interesting and important. In our
filed there are many theories that applied on real world. Some theories which are applicable
when I conduct this practical attachment are the following.
I faced many problems, during I work this practical attachment the major ones are mentioned as
follow as:
• At the beginning time they didn’t give me full freedom to do activities independently.
• Shortage of some extra or additional working materials like chair and computers for
trainers.
• Some employees are not interested for sharing their experience.
I was trying to adapt new environment and working condition gradually by studding
behavior of department member and sharing experience among them.
To solve transportation problem, I try to wake up early
---------12---------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PRACTICAL ATTACHMENT
The organization should have to buy additional materials like chair and computers that
help for training
The organization should give the opportunity for students to participate in a given
activities freely in order to improve their knowledge and producing self-confident
professionals.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PRACTICAL ATTACHMENT
4.1. Conclusion
Internship is very important program in which the students are exposed to real application area of
their concern there by developing their practical skill in proper manner. And, the internship
helped me more than you think.
The internship is the mirror of what the student sees his real person in it.
4.2. Recommendation
To improve this program, the university, the organization, supervisors, students and others must
be work together.
Some organization simply takes acceptance for the students without any preparation at
the place students assigned.
The school / department/ should have to prepare appropriate related organization with
their specific field of study for their internship
