Abstract

Every business in the competitive world needs a kind of competitive advantage. The present strategy that is practised by all the entrepreneurs is revenue and profit maximization, and simultaneously cost cut strategy has been implemented, and it reduces labour force by implementing automation technique. This climate in the organization leads to or spoils the relations between employer and employees, because the nature of human behaviour is complex and dynamic, and it must be studied. Against this, the present study is undertaken to find out the perception of employees on industrial relations climate in the organization, by using constraints i.e. management-employee relations, employee commitment and responsibilities, nature of work, employee motivation climate, cooperation, resolving grievances, workers participation in management, welfare and working conditions. The data has been tested against the null hypothesis, and the result shows that by bringing significant improvements in these factors, a conductive climate can be achieved. However, different variables are required to be qualitatively enhanced for ensuring significant improvements in the classified factors.

Keywords
