Abstract
Human Resource Management plays a vital role for the existence and survival of any industries. An attempt has been made to understand whether the existing human resource practices are much enough to enhance the potentiality of the employees and increase the productive performance of the power generation units with the special reference to Tuticor in Thermal Power Station (TTPS) and Ind- Barath Thermal Power Station, (IBTPS). The researcher came to the conclusion that there were a number of factors which were quite enough to undertake a
detailed research study on human resource in Power Generation Units. Based on the significance of the problem, the researcher had chosen the topic ‘Attitude of employees towards Human Resource Practices in PowerGeneration Units’ for his research study. For the purpose of the analysis, 86 employees are selected as sample respondents. Proportionate stratified random sampling method is used for selecting the sample respondents for collecting the data. It is found that there is a significant relationship between the age groups of employees of power generation units in Tuticorin district and their level of satisfaction towards human resource practices.
