Keywords:
Human Resource Management, Automotive Industry, Employee Engagement, Training and Development, Organizational Performance.Abstract
This study presents a detailed analysis of the Human Resource (HR) division of Varroc Engineering Pvt. Ltd., a prominent global manufacturer of automotive components. It explores the company’s HR practices, employee engagement strategies, training initiatives, and performance metrics. Using both quantitative and qualitative methods—including company reports, employee surveys, and industry comparisons—the research evaluates the effectiveness of Varroc’s HR policies. The hypothesis suggests that strategic HR management positively impacts employee satisfaction, retention, and organizational success. Key findings reveal that Varroc has adopted progressive HR measures, such as structured training programs, competitive pay, and career development plans. Notably, the Graduate Engineer Trainee (GET) program, initiated in 2016, reports an 85% satisfaction rate, while the company’s employee retention stands at 78%, exceeding the industry average by 12%. Analysis also indicates a strong link between HR investments and business outcomes, with a 38.5% increase in operating profit in FY24. The study concludes that Varroc’s HR division is integral to its success, though further efforts are needed in areas like work-life balance and diversity enhancement
