Abstract:

An ever changing and highly dynamic environment impacted upon by forces such as liberalization,

world-wide competition marked by new entrants, fast changing technologies, new models of business and converging industries, thrust on operational efficiency and effectiveness ably supported by technological advancements, increased sensitivity to stakeholders and a trend towards rights-based entitlements created an impetus to the organizations to reform and adopt new practices to manage their human resources. In the today’s scenario, “Skill and Competency” are the main drivers of an organization’s efficiency, effectiveness and performance at large. So Firms are becoming increasingly aware of the need to have competent employees for survival and long term sustainability. All types of Organizations irrespective of their size, structure and age are talking about competencies. All organisations are still struggling with defining, designing and deploying Competency Mapping models, frameworks and processes. The aim of the study is to explore the extent of usage and formalization of Competency Mapping in BGR Energy. The current study aims at analysing the competency gaps at BGR Energy.

1. Introduction

Currently, the humans are consider at corporations on the far side vital because the corporations have come back to appreciate that a fighting work, skilled, competent men with the right quantity of motivation would do the wonders that might not even be done by plain miracles. It’s a important to a company to coach and shapeup their men to best suited their role to be compete. Hence, the organizations have begun and area unit continued to impart coaching, and this has successively developed the ability among the people. Within the present of labor, characterized by fast and dramatic modification, the attainment of competency has become associate degree of integral element of individual, both in structure and national methods. Competency mapping is extremely significant and is a necessary exercise. Each well managed firm should have well outlined roles and list of competencies needed to perform at every role effectively. Such list ought to be used for accomplishment of, performance, promotions and coaching wants identification. Competency mapping is regarding characteristic ideal behaviors and private skills that distinguish exceptional and colossal performance from the typical.

2. Statement of the Problem

In the BGR Energy the higher level employees (managerial, supervisory and administration categories), needs and job roles becoming a challenge day by day. With their profile to manage their subordinates / employees and to improve the efficiency levels they have to focus on leadership development and succession planning to achieve the productivity to maintain the required competence levels.

H0 (Null hypothesis): There is no significance association between the departments, motivation and technical skill.

H1 (Alternative hypothesis): There is significance association between the departments, motivation and technical skill.

6. Conclusion

From the above analysis it has been suggested that the company should take up various strategies to progress the problem solving skills of employees, and to conduct entertainment programs, learning seminars and e-learning programs to improve and to reduce the stress. To improve competencies of employee’s performance based bonuses, and to revise the performance appraisal system to incorporate the result of skill

analysis and employee job role assessment. , apprenticeship training program can be provided. The analysis

of primary data also reveal that an organization can use outfit for competency mapping, which is extremely useful to grow the employees. The precious resource of the organization is the employee. The performance of the employee is honestly associated with the success or failure of the organization. Therefore, it is essential for the organizations to spend giant amount of money on the development the employees. The success of every organization depends on its employees, so competency mapping plays a vital role for success of organisational and employee.
