CHAPTER II MAIN THEME OF THE PROJECT

2.1 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

1. To study the various safety measure existing in the company. 2. To understand the problem faced by employee in the organization while operating the machinery. 3. To analyze the causes of accidents. 4. To recommend suggestion to improve safety measure in the organization. 5. To measure the effectiveness of the safety and first-aid training programme provided by the organization.

2.2 NEED AND SCOPE FOR FURTHER STUDY


The sample size taken for this study is only 150; it can be extended to a larger sample. The study can be done by considering some other factors to measure the Industrial Safety Measures inside the Renuga Mills and Textiles. This study can be extended to measure the satisfaction level of employees on Health and Hygiene also.

2.3 LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY


The time period of the study is short, so detailed study was not made. Only certain factors are considered in this study to measure the Safety Measure provided inside the RENUGA MILLS AND TEXTILES Some false information might be given by the employees due to fear of their superiors.

2.4 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY


RESEARCH MEANING Research is an art of scientific investigation. According to Redmen and Mary defines research as a systematic effort to gain knowledge. Research methodology is way to systematically solve the research problem. It is a plan of action for a research project and explains in detail how data are collected and analyzed. This research study is a descriptive research study.

RESEARCH DESIGN A research design is a plan that specifies the objectives of the study, method to be adopted in the data collection, tools in data analysis and hypothesis to be framed. A research design is an arrangement of condition for collection and analysis of data in a manner that aims to combine relevance to research purpose with economy in procedure.Here my project research design is descriptive in nature

NATURE OF DATA

The primary data are collected from the employees of renuga mills and Textiles through a direct structured questionnaire.

SAMPLING SIZE AND TECHNIQUE

It refers to the number of items to be selected from the universe to constitute as a sample. In this study 150 employees of RENUGA MILLS AND TEXTILES., was selected as size of sample.

Sample design The sampling technique used in this study is simple random sampling method. This method is also called as the method of chance selection. Each and every item of population has equal chance to be included in the sample. Questionnaire The questions are arranged logical sequence. The questionnaire consists of a variety of questions presented to the employees for the response. Multiple questions, rating scale questions were used in constructing questionnaire. choice

STATISTICAL TOOLS USED To analyze and interpret collected data the following statistical tools were used. 1. Percentage method 2. Chi-square analysis

Percentage method: The percentage is used for making comparison between two or more series

of data. It can be generally calculated as

No. of respondents favorable

Percentage of respondent = --------------------------------------------- * 100

Total no of respondents

Chi-square analysis:
Chi-square analysis in statistics is to test the goodness of fit to verify the distribution of observed data with assumed theoretical distribution. Therefore it is a measure to study the divergence of actual and expected frequencies. The formula for computing chi-square is as follows. Chi-square = {(O-E)2 / E}

The calculated value of chi-square is compared with the table of chisquare for the given degrees of freedom at the specified level of significance. If the calculated value is greater than the tabulated value then the difference between the observed frequency and the expected frequency are significant.

DEGREE OF FREEDOM

The formula for computing degree of freedom is as follows,

Degree of freedom= (C-1) (R-1)

The degrees of freedom is (n-2) where n is number of observed frequencies and in case of contingency table the degrees of freedom is (C-1) (R-1) where C is number of columns and R is number of rows.

2.5 REVIEW OF LITERATURE

INTRODUCTION TO INDUSTRIAL SAFETY Life of Industrial workers is becoming more and more prone to danger. The Industries are becoming more in number, size and sophistication. Every year, lakhs and lakhs of workers meet accidents in factories, mines and workshops leading to injuries, permanent disabilities and sometime deaths. Accidents may be caused by unsafe working environments, defective plant and equipments, poor supervision, careless acts etc., Industrial safety management is a vital part of the human resources management in any industry because it ensures job satisfaction, job security and motivates the employees for higher productivity. Also, it helps in loss control for the overall benefit of the organization. Hence, industrial safety is beneficial to the workers as well as management. Introduction An organization is made up of four resources, namely men, material, money and machinery. Of these, the first one is living one and the other three are non-living i.e., nonhuman.It is the human or people that make use of non-human resources. Hence, people are the most significant resources in an organization. It is man who makes all the difference in organizations. According to Peter F. Drucker, man, of all the resources available to man, can grow and develop. Human resources are heterogeneous in the sense that they differ in personality, perception, emotions, values, attitudes, motives and modes of thoughts.

Safety Safety, in simple terms, means freedom from the occurrence or risk of injury or loss. Industrial safety or Employee safety refers to the protection of workers from the danger of industrial accidents.

Accidents An Accident, is an unplanned and uncontrolled event in which an action or reaction of an object, a substance, a person, or a radiation results in personal injury.

Causes of Accidents The industrial safety experts have classified the various causes of accidents into three broad categories: 1. Unsafe Conditions 2. Unsafe Acts 3. Other Causes

STATUTORY PROVISIONS FOR INDUSTRIAL SAFETY The International

Labour Organization (ILO) organized a Tripartite Technical Conference in 1948 to formulate a Model Code of Safety Regulations for Industrial Establishments for the guidance of governments and industry. The code covers various areas of unsafe conditions and unsafe acts. In India, The

Factories Act, 1948 lays down safety provisions contained in Sections 21 to 41. These provisions are obligatory on the part of industrial establishments.The various acts involved in Industrial safety are: 1. The Factories Act, 1984. 2. The Employees State Insurance Act 1948. 3. The Indian Explosive Act, 1884. 4. The Explosive Substance Act, 1908. 5. The Inflammable Substance Act, 1952. 6. The Petroleum Act, 1934. 7. The Indian Electricity Act, 1910. 8. The Indian Boilers Act, 1932.

9. The Fatal Accident Act, 1885.
