ABSTRACT
This study says about employee retention in Hyundai Motors India Limited. We took 135 as
sample size which is determined by the organization. And we used some statistical tools for
the analysis using the statistical package of social science (SPSS) software. The main study is
about employee retention, it the is a process in which the employees are encouraged to
remain with the organization for the maximum period of time or until the completion of the
project. Employee retention is beneficial for the organizations well as the employee.
Employees today are different. They are not the ones who don’t have good opportunities in
hand. As soon as they feel dissatisfied with the current employer or the job, they switch over
to the next job. It is there responsibility of the employer to retain their best employees. If they
don’t, they would be left with no good employees. A good employer should know how to
attract and retain its employees. Most employees feel that they are worth more than they are
actually paid. There is a natural disparity between what people think they should be paid and
what organizations spend in compensation. When the difference becomes too great and
another opportunity occurs, turnover can result. Pay is defined as the wages, salary, or
compensation given to an employee in exchange for services the employee performs for the
organization. .Employees comprise the most vital assets of the company. In a work place
where employees are not able to use their full potential and not heard and valued, they are
likely to leave because of stress and frustration. In a transparent environment while
employees get a sense of achievement and belongingness from a healthy work environment,
the company is benefited with a stronger, reliable work-force harboring bright new ideas for
its growth.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCUTION

1.1 ABOUT THE STUDY
Employees have been important resources to any organization. Based on their critical
character, they can be termed the life-blood of an organization. Advancement in technology
has caused most organizations to be more and more technology driven. However, this
situation does not reduce the value of employees in an organization because technology
requires human resources to operate. With issues such as globalization, competition is
becoming keener and keener in most industries. This situation also affects the job market in
the sense that organization demand in human resources to remain competition in their
respective industries is higher. To remain more competitive, organizations need therefore not
to only attract the best talents but also to retain them on the job for a long term. The toughest
challenge that organizations encounter nowadays is not only how to manage the people but
also how to keep them on the job as long as possible and how to maintain them vigorous and
ambitious. Employee retention is concerned with keeping or encouraging employees to
remain in an organization for a maximum period of time. Mita (2014) defined employee
retention as “a technique adopted by businesses to maintain an effective workforce and at the
same time meet operational requirements”. Bidisha (2013) described it as “a process in
which the employees are encouraged to remain with the organization for the maximum period
of time or until the completion of the project”. According to Workforce Planning for
Wisconsin State Government (2015), employee retention is “a systematic effort to create and
foster an environment that encourages employees to remain employed by having policies and
practices in place that address their diverse needs”.An Employee Retention Program (ERP) is
said to beeffective when a systematic effort is made to create andfoster an environment that
encourages and supportsemployees to remain employed by maintaining strategiesand
practices in place that addresses their diverse needs.Employee retention (ER) is a process in
which theemployees are encouraged to remain with theorganization for the maximum period
of time or until thecompletion of the project. Even though ER has nowbecome a tough task, it
is beneficial for the organizationas well as the employee.The job of human resource
personnel is done perfectif it places a right person for a right job at a right place in aright
time. But retention is more important than hiring. Atalented employee will never fall shortage
of theopportunities. If a person is not satisfied with the presentjob, he may switch over to
another, of his choice. The toporganizations are on the top because they care for
theiremployees and they know how to keep them glued to theorganization. Employees stay or
leave organizations formany reasons the reasons may be personal orprofessional. Employees

who are satisfied and happywith their jobs are more dedicated and work fororganization’s
growth.Job satisfaction is something that working peopleseek and a key element of employee
retention which ispossible only by making the employee feel comfortablephysically and
psychologically. The inflationary trendsseen in the market economy is causing the job
marketmore competitive. It is getting more difficult to retainemployees, as the pool of talent
is becoming more-andmore tapped-out.A good employer should know how to attract and
retain his employees (Qadria Alkandari, 2009). Theremight be many other strategies to keep
the employeescomfortable in the present job but motivation strategiesboost the employees on
day to day basis. Contrary tomodern belief, monetary compensation is not the
highestemployee motivator. According to the HarvardManagement Update (June, 1988) nine
of ten managersthink people stay or go because of money. But, Kaye andEvans (2000)
conclude that money and perks matter, butemployees are interested in challenging and
meaningfulwork, good bosses, and opportunities for learning anddevelopment.

1.2 INDUSTRY PROFILE
The automotive industry comprises a wide range of companies and organizations involved in
the design, development,manufacturing.
History
The automotive industry began in the 1860s with hundreds of manufacturers that pioneered
horseless carriages. For many decades, the United States led the world in total automobile
production. In 1929, world had 32,028,500 automobiles in use, and the U.S. automobile
industry produced over 90% of them. At that time, the U.S. had one car per 4.87 persons.
After 1945, the U.S. produced about 75 percent of world's auto production. In 1980, the U.S.
was overtaken by Japan and then became world leader again in 1994. In 2006, Japan
narrowly passed the U.S. in production and held this rank until 2009, when China took the
top spot with 13.8 million units. With 19.3 million units manufactured in 2012, China almost
doubled the U.S. production of 10.3 million units, while Japan was in third place with 9.9
million units. From 1970 (140 models) over 1998 (260 models) to 2012 (684 models), the
number of automobile models in the U.S. has grown exponentially.
Early car manufacturing involved manual assembly by a human worker. The process evolved
from engineers working on a stationary car, to a conveyor belt system where the car passed
through multiple stations of more specialized engineers. Starting in the 1960s, robotic
equipment was introduced to the process, and today most cars are produced largely with
automated machinery.
Economy
In 2007, there were about 806 million cars and light trucks on the road, consuming over
980 billion litres (980,000,000 m3) of gasoline and diesel fuel yearly. The automobile is a
primary mode of tr4ansportation for many developed economies. The Detroit branch
of Boston Consulting Group predicted that, by 2014, one-third of world demand would be in
the four BRIC markets (Brazil, Russia, India and China). Meanwhile, in the developed
countries, the automotive industry has slowed. It is also expected that this trend will continue,
especially as the younger generations of people (in highly urbanized countries) no longer
want to own a car anymore, and prefer other modes of transport. Other potentially powerful
automotive markets are Iran and Indonesia. Emerging automobile markets already buy more
cars than established markets.
4|Page
According to a J.D. Power study, emerging markets accounted for 51 percent of the
global light-vehicle sales in 2010. The study, performed in 2010 expected this trend to
accelerate. However, more recent reports (2012) confirmed the opposite; namely that the
automotive industry was slowing down even in BRIC countries. In the United States, vehicle
sales peaked in 2000, at 17.8 million units.
In July 2021, the European Commission released its "Fit for 55" legislation package, which
contains important guidelines for the future of the automotive industry; all new cars on the
European market must be zero-emission vehicles from 2035.
Economic impacts
The global automotive industry is a major consumer of water. Some estimates surpass 39,000
gallons of water per car manufactured, depending on whether tyre production is included.
Production processes that use a significant volume of water include surface treatment,
painting, coating, washing, cooling, air-conditioning and boilers, not counting component
manufacturing. Paintshop operations consume especially large amounts of water, because
equipment running on water-based products must also be cleaned with water.
In 2022, Tesla's Gigafactory Berlin-Brandenburg ran into legal challenges due to droughts
and falling groundwater levels in the region. Brandenburg's Economy Minister Joerg
Steinbach said that while water supply was sufficient during the first stage, more would be
needed once Tesla expands the site. The factory would nearly double the water consumption
in the Gruenheide area, with 1.4 million cubic meters being contracted from local authorities
per year — enough for a city of around 40,000 people. Steinbach said that the authorities
would like to drill for more water there and outsource any additional supply if necessary

3.1 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research Methodology is a way to find out the result of a given problem on a specific matter
or problem that is also referred as research problem. In Methodology, researcher uses
different criteria for solving/searching the given research problem. Different sources use
different type of methods for solving the problem. If we think about the word
“Methodology”, it is the way of searching or solving the research problem.
RESEARCH DESIGN:
DESCRIPTIVE RESEARCH:
Descriptive research includes surveys and fact-finding enquiries of different kinds and
it can report only what has happened. The purpose of the research is description of the
state of affairs as it exists at present. Descriptive research, also known as statistical
research, describes data and characteristics about the population or phenomenon being
studied. Descriptive research answers the questions who, what, when, where and how.
A descriptive study is undertaken in order to ascertain and able to describe the
organization constantly engaged themselves in studying and analyzing issues and
hence are involved in some form of research activity as they make decisions at the
work place. It involves lot of factors like the research design, tools used etc., all these
steps and factors put together to bring out clear and accurate results.
SAMPLING METHOD:
Sampling is the process of selecting a representative group from the population under
study. The target population is the total group of individuals from which the sample might be
drawn. A sample is the group of people who take part in the investigation. The people who
take part are referred to as “participants”.
35 | P a g e
TYPE OF SAMPLING METHOD:
NON-PROBABILITY SAMPLING:
Non-probability sampling is a sampling technique where the samples are gathered in a
process that does not give all the individuals in the population equal chances of being
selected. Non-probability sampling has its strength in the area of convenience.
CONVENIENCE SAMPLING:
Convenience sampling is a type of non-probability sampling that involves the sample
being drawn from the part of population that is close to the hand. This type of
sampling is most useful for pilot testing. The sampling is also known as grab
sampling or availability sampling. There are no other criteria to the sampling method
except that people be available and willing to participate.
SAMPLE SIZE:
Sample size determination is the act of choosing the number of observations or
replicates to include in a statistical sample. The sample size is an important feature of
any empirical study in which the goal is to make inferences about a population from a
sample. The sample size for the study is 135 which is determined by the organization.
DATA COLLECTION:
Data collection is a systematic approach to gathering information from a variety of sources to
get a complete and accurate picture of an area of interest. In this study responses are collected
through two different sources.
36 | P a g e
PRIMARY DATA COLLECTION:
Primary data is a type of information that is obtained directly from first-hand sources by
means of surveys, observation or experimentation. It is data that has not been previously
published and is derived from a new or original research study.
Primary data collection techniques used in this study is QUESTIONNAIRE
METHOD. Questionnaire was circulated to 135 respondents. In this study various
questionnaire techniques are used and they are:
i) Closed ended questions
Closed ended questions are just that: direct questions that ask for specific pieces of
information from a respondent. Closed questions have their greatest value when we need to
obtain facts and specific pieces of information. By their nature they limit the respondent field
of choice and length of response. A closed-ended question is a question format that limits
respondents with a list of answer choices from which they must choose to answer the
question.
DICHOTOMOUS TYPE:
When a question has two possible responses, we consider it as dichotomous type.
Surveys often use dichotomous questions that ask for Yes/No, True/False,
Agree/Disagree.
MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS:
Multiple choice questions are a type which has list of answer choices from which they
must choose to answer the question.
RATING QUESTIONS:
A rating question asks survey respondents to compare different items using a
common scale a question that asks the participant to position each property or object
on a verbal, numeric, or graphic continuum. A rating scale is a set of categories
designed to elicit information about a quantitative or a qualitative attribute.
37 | P a g e
RANKING QUESTIONS:
A measurement question that asks the participant to compare and order two or
more objects or properties using a numeric scale. A ranking question asks survey
respondents to compare a list of different objects to one another.
Open-ended questions are those questions that will solicit additional information from the
inquirer. Sometimes called infinite response or unsaturated type questions. By definition,
they are broad and require more than one- or two-word responses. An open-ended question is
a question that cannot be answered with a simple yes or no, or with only one or two words,
where the person answering the question has to answer it in his or her own words.
RESEARCH TOOLS:
Research tools can be defined as the instrument in the hands of researchers to measure what
they indent to in their study. The collected data has been analyzed by the following statistical
tool
a) Percentage Analysis
d) Correlation Analysis
e) Weighted Average
f) Interval Estimation
38 | P a g e
A) PERCENTAGE ANALYSIS METHOD:
Percentage analysis is the method to represent raw streams of data as a percentage (a part in
100-percent) for better understanding of collected data.
No . of ℜspondents × 100
Percentage method =
Total No. of Respondents
A non- parametric method for one-way analysis of variance used to determine if three
or more samples originate from the same distribution. The Kruskal Wallis test essentially a
standard one-way analysis of variance, with ranks assigned to the data points replacing the
data points themselves, and is applicable to more than sample groups. The formula for
Kruskal Wallis H test is,
12
Hꭓ2 = [ R2/n1 + R22/n2 + R23 /n3] - 3(n-1)
n(n+1) 1
The Mann Whitney U - test is a non-parametric test of the null hypothesis that two samples
came from the same population against an alternative hypothesis, especially that a particular
population against an alternative hypothesis, especially that a particular population trends to
have larger values than the other. Use of Mann Whitney U Test will enable us to determine
whether the two populations are identical.
