    Policy Directions

    INJAZ Pakistan is positioned as a (Social-catalyst) with a focus on developing entrepreneurship and

    vocational skills amongst Pakistani youth through empowering them in their professional careers, while

    enhancing their:

    Leadership

    Self-esteem;

    Dignity of entrepreneurship;

    Creativity and innovation;

    Sustainability;

    Higher human values; and last but not the least,

    Opportunities for all.

    INJAZ Pakistan operates as a local chapter of Junior Achievement, US through INJAZ Al Arab. Currently it is

    optimally leveraging its entitlement to replicate training programs and products of the parent institutions.

    While this relationship provides easier rout to early success, however in the longer run it raises the question of

    sustainability of INJAZ Pakistan as an independent institution. Moreover, dependent relationship also inhabits

    INJAZ Pakistans efficacy in terms of it programs and productssuitability in the Pakistani context.

    Business Model

    The business model presented below integrates core, support and supervisory processes. The Board of

    Directors through various committees have a supervisory function in the overall management of the institution

    as portrayed in the model. Core processes represent the line functions per se. These are Project management

    and Program management. Support processes include Research and Development; Corporate Governance,

    Personnel and Organization Development; and, Accounting, Administration and IT services.

    In the short term, the institution is financed through the sponsors and it leverages solely on the products ofINJAZ Al Arab and Junior Achievement. Thus its chances to manage its operations efficiently and effectively

    are primarily contingent upon its capacity in programs management. In the long run, however, the institution

    must achieve capability to self-sustain. In this regard, the critical strengths would be project management;

    sustainable funds mobilization and their efficient management; research and development to develop and/or

    adopt training resources in the local context; and, development of specialized streams of personnel. Other

    areas of critical importance would be Corporate Governance & Compliance, Audit, and last but not the least,

    Accreditations that would right strengthen its public image and credibility of its products.

    From the external perspective, the institution aims to sink deeper through building sustainable linkages with

    the academia and community organizations in the short run. Subsequently, it aims to consolidate its linkages

    with the academia and community organizations and diversify its interventions while continuing to expand its

    outreach across the country. Furthermore, it will constantly forge its image as most preferred and transparent

    organization.

    Having said this, the institution aims to build its capability in terms of its structure and personnel. This follows

    that the institution shall simultaneously spell out its Personnel Strategy from the short term and long term

    perspectives.

    Proposed (Personnel Strategy)1

    As evident from the business model above, in the short run INJAZ Pakistan shall continue to build upon its

    capability in Program management. The implication of this on personnel would be to develop a core team of

    Program management specialists supported by a cadre of short term Incumbents, and external mentors or

    training specialists (not volunteers2).

    In the long run, however, the institution envisages to building its capacity in project management; research

    and development for curriculum design; and materials development to augment the support in training

    resources from the parent institutions. This would entail nurturing a cadre of (Researchers and Developers)

    in the long run, who would take up the roles in training resource development.

    Proposed (Personnel Policy Objectives)

    To position INJAZ as preferred career choice amongst its contemporaries

    To promote integrity, commitment, objectivity, results focus and productivity

    To accelerate learning, engagement, and success

    To propagate equal opportunity, fairness, and transparency

    To make performances truly value-driven

    To achieve consistency, validity and reliability of personnel management practices

    Proposed (Performance Vision)

    INJAZ Pakistan is committed to promoting performance culture wherein each team player severally and

    together contributes towards empowering professional careers of Pakistani youth at the grass root levels. In

    doing so, the team players within their respective roles always conform to the highest standards of

    professionalism; ethics; and, social responsibility in mobilizing, managing and deploying intellectual and

    financial resources.

    Guiding Virtues

    stakeholders, fellows, and of themselves.

    individuals within the bounds of fairness, morality, social justice and transparency.

    Scope of Personnel Policy Environment

    The personnel policy environment at INJAZ Pakistan is designed to stimulate individuals and group

    performance through harnessing quality of Incumbents; immediate physical environment; and, last but not the

    least subtle behaviours.

    Incumbents Management

    INJAZ Pakistan is an equal opportunity employer. It offers long term and short career opportunities toqualified

    3 individuals, depending on their area of specialization and experience. Besides, it also offers

    internships to qualified freshmen and volunteer positions. It aims to hire individuals as objectively4 as

    possible to ensure optimal employee performance at each position. Consequently, the individuals are

    engaged on the job in accordance to the accredited employment practices and in a socially responsible

    manner. INJAZ commits to fair and equitable compensation and reinforcement plans.

    Immediate Physical Environment

    INJAZ Pakistan corporate structure complies with its business objectives and strategy and aims to foster

    team work, empowerment at individuals and group level leading to outcome-effectiveness5; output-

    efficiency

    6

    ; work coordination, control, and ownership; and, last but not the least synergistic-work-culture.Furthermore, it strives continually to adopt and implement best international work practices, adhere to

    the stakeholders legitimate rights and always comply with the laws, regulations, policies and standards in

    the letter and spirit.

    INJAZ Pakistan stands committed to reinforce team performance and individuals behaviours in a

    transparent and timely manner. As a prelude, team performances are planned, key results and

    performance indicators are agreed upon, and individuals roles (behaviours) are identified.

    Subtle Behaviours

    INJAZ Pakistan promotes virtues of professionalism, ethics, and social responsibility; and, supports

    building interdependent work relations.

    _____________________________________________________________________________________1. The term Personnel being used in place of HR because it is believed that people are the subject not the resource per se.

    2. The term Volunteer does not reflect the true value of contributors. Secondly, volunteering is generally considered external to the

    organization hence volunteers fail to demonstrate ownership and commitment, much needed for successful implementation.

    3. The term Qualified refers to work specific personality make up, professional and technical competencies, and work experience.

    4. The term Objectively refers to reliability, validity and transparency of hiring criteria

    5. Outcome-effectiveness refers to a scenario of optimal accomplishment of performance goals / targets

    6. Output-efficiency refers to demonstration of optimal behaviors or efforts

    Organization Design

    1.

    Context

    INJAZ Pakistan is committed to always be a (Value Driven) organization. The commitment is essentially

    reflected in its empowering organization design / structure. Having said this, functions are assigned todedicated teams within the ambiance of a supra INJAZ Team rather than to individuals. Furthermore, the

    envisaged relationships within teams are not based on status (position on the hierarchy) but roles. Individuals

    have their defined roles that are essentially non-competitive and complement each others roles and/or

    performance. Teams and individuals are empowered and access appropriate authority to function effectively,

    while the practice of leveraged actions / performance is completely negated.

    Middle management layerper seis considered dysfunctional for inculcating empowering team culture. Hence,

    the organization functions on a two-tiered structure Strategic Teamconsisting of Board of Directors and CEO

    and Business Teams representing specialized functions. The Chairman BoD heads the Strategic Team while

    the General Managers / Senior Managers head Business Teams. The Chief Executive Officer has a role to

    represent the BoD at the Business level besides representing the organization in the sector. The BoD leveragesits roles through the CEO and the Board Committees. Individual may head multiple teams if necessary to keep

    the organization lean and efficient.

    Compensation Framework (Draft)

    1.

    Context

    Many organizations are being challenged to establish equity in compensation across the Positions. Ignorance

    or inability to achieve equity leads to serious employee performance and commitment challenges. Such as low

    morale, rivalry amongst Incumbents, lack of commitment, general dissatisfaction all affecting productivity and

    performance. Secondly, it distorts the Incumbents psychological contracts hence their ownership and

    responsibility towards their jobs.

    In modern days, organization have innovated several variants of compensation to improve at least perceptual

    equity. Some variants are briefly listed below:

    Pay for Performance: This regime has its roots in the famous Management by Objectives theory articulated by

    Peter F. Drucker a renowned management expert. It aims to connect compensation directly with employee

    performance. Per sethis regime offers an acceptable basis of equity. However, it is something that is easy to

    say but rather impossible to do in the letter and spirit. While it encourages Incumbents to perform more and

    more if they wish to earn more. Yet, the irony is the system allows people if they wish to abuse it by

    manipulating their marginal performance into a big performance. Consequently, Incumbents focus on

    quantitative performance while ignore the qualitative side. For instance, a Credit Manager would sell more

    and more loans and to do so s/he will not consider which are less risky and which are more risky borrowers.

    Thus would end up selling more but high risk loans. Another serious dilemma attached to this regime is that at

    many instances performance measurement is much subjective leaving room for window dressing and

    articulation.

    Market Based Salaries: In the first place we must acknowledge that Market Value of an employee is a

    subjective phenomenon. Primary drivers to this are the opportunities at hand and the choices made by the

    respective Incumbents. Furthermore, it is relatively a new variant primarily introduced by the organizations to

    justify lateral hiring at much higher salaries than what is being paid to existing Incumbents at the same

    position. In essence it allows organizations to attract Incumbents from their competitors with ease for all the

    competitive reasons. Firstly, observation has shown that this approach does not provide long term competitive

    advantage. Real beneficiaries are the Incumbents who take advantage of this and always sit at the fence

    looking for even higher salary in the market. Eventually a price war is ignited in the market which effectively

    erodes profit margins for every organization. Even it is observed that presence of such Incumbents cause wide

    spread dissatisfaction amongst the existing loyal Incumbents. In fact they begin to think that they are being

    deprived of their rightful rewards. Not only this but at times they also think that the organization is punishing

    them for their commitment and loyalty by paying less compensation than the new hires.

    Qualification Based Salaries: Traditionally organizations used qualification and skill set as a prime basis fordetermining salaries across. Although it provides an objective basis for establishing equity amongst

    Incumbents, however, ironically studies have proved that Incumbents productivity and competence does not

    always correlate positively. Another significant problem with this system is that Incumbents tend to give more

    attention to improving their qualification and skill set without any concern for on the job performance and

    productivity.

    2. Compensation Framework

    INJAZ Pakistan leverages compensation as a strategic tool to direct individuals and group performance. Having

    said this, INJAZ Pakistans compensation is well integrated within the performance management framework.

    At present standard compensation ranges are used to determine Gross Salaries at all positions. This model is

  • 8/11/2019 HR Manual by Corporate Consulting Group

    13/50

    INJAZ Pakistan

    Draft for Discussion

    Corporate Consulting Group, Pakistan Page 13

    excessively discretionary and subjective. Furthermore it does not provide explicit correlation with the required

    performance. The framework has its premise on the following rationales:

    a.

    Value for money

    b.

    Fair and equitable

    c.

    Competitived.

    Team based

    INJAZ Pakistan is cognizant of its donor driven status and is committed to optimize each rupee-value spent vis-

    -vis its object clause. Incumbents compensation is also an integral part of overall expenditure strategy.

    Hence, INJAZ Pakistan envisages that the Incumbents compensation must yield value for money. This is

    achieved through maintaining equity between what value a team or an employee delivers and the

    compensation paid. Nevertheless, INJAZ Pakistan is also committed to pay fair compensation as per the going

    rate in the market and achieve horizontal and vertical compensation equity within and outside the INJAZ

    Pakistan. Going a step further, INJAZ Pakistan recognizes the need for retaining talented and high performing

    Incumbents. In order to do that successfully, it aims to maintain long term competitive edge in careers vis--vis

    the industry. Nonetheless, employee-retention is a moving target hence it needs to be pursued ratherselectively. Last but not the least, INJAZ wants to promote team synergy hence Team Performance is yet

    another benchmark used in determining team and individual compensation.

    The proposed compensation framework is more objective. Accordingly, salaries are computed on more

    objective basis. Having said this, Incumbents Net-Salary1 at any point in time, is based on Incumbents

    respective position; length of service; amount and diversity of experience (exposure); proficiency (professional

    skill set, knowledge and perspective); and team performance.

    Salaries are based on the representative positions of the Incumbents. Incumbents Net-Salaries shall be

    computed vis--vis their seniority in the company and/or compatible positions held outside the company and

    demonstrated competence. However, the net-salary shall be within salary range, determined from time totime, for the specific position at which the employee is working / being hired. Refer to Annexe s for Salary

    Ranges.

    Annual increments shall consist of three components, namely;

    - General Annual Increment Award2

    -

    Performance Award

    -

    Competency Award

    General Annual Increment Award (GAIA) shall compensate for the

    inflation during the preceding 12 months. Incumbents with less than 12

    months of service shall be awarded this increment on pro-rata basis.

    Performance based increments are separately determined and awarded

    on the basis of individual and team performance appraisals3.

    Competence based increments are admissible subject to measureable

    improvement in competence, which will be determined on the basis of

    additional relevant qualification obtained and qualitative assessment of

    the immediate supervisor.

    Performance awards are based on the moving average points that Incumbents earn on their individual and

    team performance evaluations over the preceding three years. The impact of improvement or decay in the

    recent years performance ranking will be partially neutralized by previous years performance ranking. Hence

    it is hoped that an exceptional (biased) performance ranking in a year does not affect the performance award

    in the direct proportion. This shall not exceed 50% of applicable GAIA percentage.

    Competence award is based on number of variables such as amount and diversity of experience (exposure),

    proficiency (professional skill set and knowledge), and last but not the least all perspective at work. The

    employees competence (each variable) is ranked in quantitative terms. Competence ranking does not change

    over time except for acquiring new skill set and knowledge through training programs or additional academic

    qualification and on the basis of qualitative evaluation of change in Incumbents perspective. This shall not

    exceed 30% of applicable GAIA percentage.

    It is expected that average employee shall stay in one position for not more than [2 to 3] years. However,

    fewer Incumbents may stay in the same position for longer period depending on their type of employment.

    They will have their primary salaries capped once they attain maximum till the time, management may decide

    to award mover-over or their employment terms are modified, as the case may be. It is hoped that by

    introducing the above increment-regime, gross salaries will eventually reflect fair and competitive

    compensation over a period of 5 years.

    i.

    Disclaimer:The above framework is rather simplistic. It does not take into account the need for salary differentiation at similar positions across two or

    more functions, such as operations, marketing and administration. The underlying rationale for this is to ensure team spirit per se.

    However, it is hoped that the scales are constantly benchmarked against market value to ensure fair rewards for all without bias.

    Furthermore, it is aimed to reduce subjectivity and discretionary orientations observed in the prevailing system. Unlike the prevailing

    system, this tentative framework is based on rather discrete variables such as responsibility areamanagement, operational or functional

    that is represented by the Position, moving average performance points, education and training, etc. The additional advantage of this

    framework is that the incumbent can hardly disagree with what salary he or she is paid, for the framework is quite quantified and

    transparent. Thus it is hoped that this will lead to greater equity perception amongst the incumbents.

    General Policy Guidelines

    iv.

    General Conduct

    INJAZ Pakistan places high priority to its corporate and social responsibilities towards its constituents

    (institutions and trainees) and Pakistani community at large. It is therefore expected of every

    incumbent to take cognizance of the corporate and social responsibility while delivering any service;

    demonstrate respect to the social and religious values of the constituents; maintain congenial

    working relations; and last but not the least, optimize service value.

    v. Work Ethics and Conflicts of Interest

    INJAZ Pakistan commits to always comply with all applicable laws and regulations and expects its

    directors, officers, and incumbents to conduct all activities in accordance with the letter, spirit, and

    intent of all relevant laws and to refrain from any illegal, dishonest, or unethical conduct.

    Furthermore, incumbents are mandated to conduct business within guidelines that prohibit actual or

    potential conflicts of interest.

    INJAZ Pakistan defines Ethical or Responsible Behaviour as being able to assert own rights in a

    manner that does not undermine rights of others. Furthermore, the incumbents behaviour must also

    conform to legal, moral and social contract. Incumbents are expected to must demonstrate ethical

    and/or responsible behaviour with the constituents, organization, co-workers and society in general.

    In a situation where it becomes difficult to determine an appropriate course of action, the incumbent

    should discuss the issue openly with the immediate supervisor, and, if necessary, with the Head of the

    Department, for further advice and guidance.

    Compliance with the policy of work ethics and conflicts of interest is the responsibility of every

    incumbent. While INJAZ Pakistan is confident that incumbents will respect this standard of business

    ethics and conduct; disregard or failure to comply may lead to disciplinary action, up to and including

    possible termination of employment.

    Incumbent is responsible for the accuracy and correctness of information contained in the

    Employment Application, as well as other personal data presented in the due course of time. Any

    misrepresentations, falsifications, or material omissions in any of this information or data may result

    in the exclusion of the individual from further consideration for employment or, if the person has

    been hired, termination of employment.

    vi.

    vii. Work Relationships

    INJAZ Pakistan aims to foster interdependent work culture within its ranks. Team work is highly

    encouraged while solo performance is not appreciated unless otherwise the task entails. Team work is

    described as a working relationship where everyone contributes unique (diverse) value and alsoenables each other to do so thus synergizing the whole team performance. Every one doing

    everything is not considered team-work.

    viii.

    ix.

    Work Schedules

    The normal work schedule is 9.00 a.m. to 5.00 p.m., Monday to Friday. The management may,

    however, consider in certain circumstances to allow Flexible Work Schedule to all or specific

    incumbents, if deemed productive for the conduct of their assignments. Incumbents are expected to

    plan their daily work activities in such a manner that the work is completed within the work schedule.

    However, they may be required to work beyond the work schedule when necessary.

    Incumbents should arrange to report to their work stations preferably 15 minutes before the start

    time and occasionally not later than 15 minutes past the scheduled time. Incumbents are alsoexpected to maintain punctuality of their attendance. However, we recognize the personal casualties

  • 8/11/2019 HR Manual by Corporate Consulting Group

    20/50

    INJAZ Pakistan

    Draft for Discussion

    Corporate Consulting Group, Pakistan Page 20

    of the incumbents. Therefore, occasionally incumbents may avail casual leaves of absence, but not for

    more than 3 consecutive days. Preferably an advance approval in this regard should be taken

    however, in case of emergencies the incumbent should notify of his or her absence via email or phone

    to the immediate supervisor or any other responsible person followed by initiating retrospect-

    approval. In case emergency prevails beyond 3 days, the incumbent should initiate request for

    approval of medical or annual leave of absence. Ignorance of above guidelines may lead to

    disciplinary action against the incumbent.

    CONFIDENTIALITY

    Incumbents are not eligible to access all information of INJAZ Pakistan operations. They can

    access only the information relevant to their work responsibilities. Some information will be

    to all on the dashboard / in printed form. Such as INJAZ Pakistan schedule of events, list of

    partner institutions, and training materials. Nevertheless, incumbents shall be responsible to

    keep all the information that comes to them in the due course of work confidential and must

    not divulge upon the same in public, unless otherwise instructed by the company.

    x. MEALS/PRAYER BREAKS

    Lunch breaks are available between 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. Incumbents are advised to make

    arrangements to perform their mid-day (Dhur) prayers during the same break. Incumbents

    may avail 15 minutes break to perform their evening (Asr) prayers when it falls during the

    usual work schedule. It is expected that the incumbents will compensate the 15 minutes

    break by working longer at the close of the day.

    xi.

    PERSONAL ATTIRE & CONDUCT

    INJAZ Pakistan commits to demonstrate professional environment at its offices.

    Nevertheless, it does not prescribe uniform or standard dress. Rather it mandates a dress

    and appearance guidelines, which apply to all incumbents.

    Clothing: Incumbents must make arrangements to wear cloths, which are formal

    dresses suitable to present themselves as upright and sober professionals.

    Incumbent may choose to wear casual-smart cloths. However, cloths should

    not be fancy, vulgar, provocative, and extra-casual. Nor the incumbents

    should contribute in fostering show-off culture.

    Grooming: Incumbents should adhere to cleanliness, neatness and hygiene standards at

    all times. Incumbents are encouraged to use perfumes / deodorants

    however, they must not overdo it. Ladies shall avoid wearing party make-

    ups. Men shall keep their hairs and beards / mustachios properly trimmed

    and combed all the time.

    Dialogue: Incumbents should always use an appropriate language while greeting and

    communicating, either in person or over the phone. Give full attention to

    the constituent by listening and understanding his or her message. Always

    confirm their understanding of the message before responding. Make all

    efforts to provide correct and complete answer/solution to the constituent.

    Should you must refer the constituent to another person, you must do it

    promptly. Avoid general or out of scope discussions.

    Smoking: Smoking is recognized as injurious to physical and mental health of the

    smoker as well as of the individuals in the vicinity. Therefore, all offices /

    work stations and events of INJAZ Pakistan are declared as No Smoking

    Areas. Violation may lead to disciplinary action.

    xii.

    USE OF FACILITIES

    INJAZ Pakistan has provided physical facilities and equipment to aid the performance of

    incumbents. Such as work stations, computers, access to internet and intranet, telephones,

    lightening and air conditioning, etc. Incumbents are entitled to make use of the physical

    facilities in the due course of their work in most appropriate, efficient and effective manner.

    Inappropriate, extravagant and misuse of the facilities would amount to Abuse and would

    make the incumbent liable to make good of the losses thereof or disciplinary action or both,

    as deem fit.

    xiii.VISITORS

    Incumbents should encourage the visitors to take prior appointment to avert disruption in

    their work activities. Incumbent should provide visitors information to the Security in

    advance. This will help the Security to clear the visitors promptly. Unauthorized visitors are

    prohibited from entering in the premises. Incumbent may also receive personal visitors

    occasionally. Similar security check would be done for them as well.

    Closure of Employment Contract

    INJAZ Pakistan while encourages perpetuity of employment contracts. Nevertheless, the contracts

    may be severed either by the company or incumbent at future date, if deemed necessary.

    RESIGNATION

    Incumbent who wishes to close the contract at his or her own accord may resign by serving a prior

    Notice of Resignation of not less than 30 days. The company, however, reserves the right to accept

    or reject the resignation and may extend or reduce the notice period requirement, as it deems fit. In

    case of not completing the notice period in full or part thereof, the incumbent shall deem to have

    agreed to pay gross salary in lieu of the full notice period or part thereof, as the case may be. The

    company shall not issue experience letter to incumbents resigning within first year of their

    employment contract.

    INVOLUNTARY CLOSURE

    INJAZ Pakistan reserves the right to severe the contract(s) if deemed necessary by the circumstances

    in vogue:

    i. Disciplinary Action against an incumbent may lead to closure of the contract by the

    company. It is termed as Discharge. In this case, depending on the nature of

    disciplinary action and the underlying misconduct of the incumbent the company

    reserves the right to make decision whether or not to pay the usual terminal

    benefits to the subject.

    ii.

    Any other inevitable circumstance(s) may entail closure of the contract by the

    company. It is termed as Lay Off. In this case the company shall be liable to pay full

    terminal benefits as per usual policy / practice, including pay for the notice period if

    the incumbent is laid off with immediate effect. The company also reserves the right

    to decide paying ad hoc terminal benefits in addition to the usual terminal benefits

    with a view to make the incumbent as comfortable as possible.

    FULL AND FINAL SETTLEMENT

    Incumbents are relieved from the services upon full and final settlement of reciprocal claims:

    i. Incumbents are responsible to immediately surrender all properties, materials, or

    written information issued to them or in their possession or control. The company

    reserves the right to withhold from the final pay check and terminal dues of the

    incumbent, the cost of properties either not returned or damaged by the

    incumbent. The also reserves the right to take legal actions deemed appropriate to

    premises and utilities

    6. Detailed Position Profiles:

    Team work is ensured through matrix structure design. Consequently, each incumbent irrespective

    of being a supervisor or reportee, has been assigned unique responsibilities. Put it differently, each

    incumbent is responsible for a specific set of responsibilities (This is contrary to conventional

    approach where the supervisor owns the responsibility yet s/he delegates its implementation to the

    reportees). It is expected that this will foster team culture, ownership where the work is done and

    accountability of the incumbent. Furthermore, the overall organization structure is designed flat to

    instill empowerment; focus on roles; and, effective communication. It is anticipated that an

    incumbent shall be responsible for more than one activity. This job enlargement can be visualized in

    two ways: an incumbent can be simultaneously assigned two processes, or the incumbent can be

    Head of Department in one process and at the same time can be a reportee at another process.

    Lastly, an incumbent can head more than one process. Detailed profiles for each position follow.

    It is recommended that Terms of Reference should be written for each incumbent on case to case

    basis, based on his or her job contents (number of processes).
