Next 10: 16 - NIIT Technologies: High on Policy
New schemes give it a high score on HR parameters, though e-sat is low
Wednesday, September 06, 2006

With PCMM Level 5, NIIT Technologies boasts of strong people practices. NIIT also offers a competency-based framework. Centers of Competence in technical, behavioral and functionla areas have been formed.

Based on its vision document, a set of new benefit schemes was introduced for NIITians in the year 2005-06. These schemes touch upon and lay emphasis on creating the capacity to grow, Fun@work and work-life balance. To aid individual enhancement and growth, NIIT introduced a framework for moving to higher roles through role change panels. A job rotation policy was also introduced for all round career growth and effective seeding of new roles. Changes have also been incorporated in the Variable Compensation plan in order to make it more competitive. As a result, though NIIT figures low on employee satisfaction, it has shown marked improvement on its HR score over last year.
