Reasons For Choosing

When I was looking for internships I started looking at numerous resources. I knew I

wanted to apply to companies that have a good reputation because that would most

likely mean they weren’t going to waste my time. It was posted in one of the weekly e-

mail bulletins that Pakistan Steel Mill was looking for an HR intern. Pakistan Steel Mill

is one of the biggest organizations in Pakistan with so many employees, and it is the

best place to learn that how a large no of employees could be handled and organized. I

was apprehensive that the internship would be overwhelming and that I wouldn’t be able

to handle the projects and activities they gave me. In the end I think I’m able to look

back and realize that I’ve been taught in my classes all the theoretical Human

Resources practices. Now I have been able to put that theory into practice and it has

helped me to learn a lot more then just course work.

History

After independence in 1947, it did not take long for Pakistan to come to the realization

that progressive industrial and economical development would be impossible without

the possession of a self reliant iron and steel making plant. The dependence on imports

would cause serious setbacks to the country along with an extortionately high import bill

which would be impossible to support.

The initial idea for a domestic iron and steel mill was put forward in the first five year

plan of Pakistan (1955 - 1960). Debates over the manufacturing process, supply

sources of the requisite machinery and raw materials, plant site, domestic ore versus

imported ore, ownership pattern, product mix and above all foreign financing credit kept

the project on hold for a considerable time.

In 1968 besides other factors, it was considered by the Government of Pakistan that a

basic steel industry should be established in the public sector, as public sponsorship of

the project would enable intergraded development of the steel industry in the country. In

light of this, the government decided that the Karachi Steel Project should be sponsored

in the public sector for which a separate Corporation under the Companies Act be

formed. As a result on the 2nd of July, 1968 Pakistan Steel Mills Corporation was setup

as a private limited company in the public sector in accordance to the Companies Act of

1913, with the objective to establish and run steel mills at Karachi and other places in

Pakistan.

In January, 1969, Pakistan Steel concluded an agreement with V/o Tyaz Promexportof

the then USSR for the preparation of a feasibility report into the establishment of a steel

mill at Karachi. Subsequently in January, 1971 Pakistan and the USSR signed an

agreement under which the latter agreed to provide techno-financial assistance for the

construction of a coastal based intergraded steel mill at Karachi.

The foundation stone for this gigantic project was laid on the 30th of December, 1973 by

the then Prime Minister Mr. Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto. The mammoth construction and erection

work of the intergraded steel mill, never experienced before in the country, was carried

out by a consortium of Pakistani construction companies under the supervision of Soviet

experts.

Pakistan Steel did not only have to construct the main production units but a host of

infrastructure facilities involving unprecedented volumes of work and expertise.

Component units of the steel mill numbering over twenty and each a big enough factory

in its own right were commissioned as they were completed between April, 1981 to

August, 1985 with the Coke Ovens and By Products Plant coming online first and the

Galvanizing Unit last. Commissioning of Blast Furnace Number 1 on the 14th of August,

1981 marked Pakistan's entry into the elite club of iron and steel producing nations. The

project was completed at a capital cost of Rs. 24,700 million. The completion of the

steel mill was formally launched by General Zia-Ul-Haq the then President of Pakistan

on the 15th of January 1985.

Today Pakistan Steel is the country's largest industrial undertaking having a production

capacity of 1.1 million tonnes of steel. The enormous dimensions of the project can be

visualized from the construction inputs which involved the use of 1.29 million cubic

meters of concrete, 5.70 million cubic meters of earth work (second to Tarbela Dam),

330,000 tonnes of machinery, steel structures and electrical equipment. Its unloading

and conveyor system at Port Qasim is the third largest in the world and its industrial

water reservoir with a capacity of 110 million gallons per day is the largest in Asia. A

2.5km long sea water channel connects the sea water circulation system to the plant

site with a consumption of 216 million gallons of sea water per day.

The above figures illustrate the massive civil works, intricate erections, installations of

sophisticated electrical and mechanical equipment. With the completion of Pakistan

Steel, the local contractors gained the technical ability till then unknown, which they

utilized later to undertake million dollar projects both within the country and abroad

especially the Middle East.

2. External audit.

Internal audit

The internal audit is carried out by the people within the organization.

External audit

The external audit is carried out by the people outside the organization.

Furthermore internal audit checks each and everything of the department within the

organization being audited. Internal audit is also known as internal control as well as

internal check.

Internal audit is further classified into two categories.

1. Post audit.

2. Pre audit.

Pre audit: Pre audit is taken for the procurement, internal audit is always suggesting

activity within approved policies/procedures, SOP (standard of operation) or manual.

Pre audit is taken before the payment made to employees.

Risk Assessment Department

Risk assessment audit is the modern technology and being implemented in Pakistan

Steel Mill (PASMIC). In this regard financial risk is scoring for the different departments.

The departments are categorized into three types.

2. Medium Risk Department.

3. Low Risk Department.

QUALITY CONTROL DEPARTMENT

All those actions which are taken with the process which measure the product and

process, compare with them with specifications, correct every discrepancies,

eliminations of all non conformities, corrective actions are taken to remove all courses of

non conformities.

Quality control department has 3 main functions which control

1. Raw materials.

2. Process.

3. Quality of finish goods.

Raw material: in the first step the raw material is imported from the countries for

making of steel as per demand. These raw materials are imported from Australia,

Canada, Iran, and India. The imported raw material included iron ore, coal, and

sometimes coke in case of urgent. Pakistan steel sometimes purchase domestics

product for the manufacturing of steel such as dolomite, limestone, and sometimes iron

ore from Baluchistan site areas.

Process: In processing the iron ore is transfer to the blending yard through the

conveyor belt where quality of the ore is checked, and the coal is send to Silos and

afterward proceed toward the Coke Oven Battery for converting the coal into coke which

is use in the blast furnace for melting the iron ore.

Blast furnace: In the blast furnace the iron ore is melted up to 1700 centigrade. The hot

metal is called as pig iron. After this, the pig iron is proceeds toward SMD department

(steel making department) through iron ladle.

SMD: When pig iron is delivering to the SMD department it is put into the converter now

from further process it is converted into molten steel.

Quality of finish goods: After the steel is made, within SMD department it is converted

into the following products

Slab

Bloom

Billets

My Work At the organization

I have done my internship in Pakistan steel mill, from 6th July 2009 to 13th August 2009.

Pakistan Steel Mill’s Human Resources department is working very effectively and

efficiently. Mr Qaiser Saleem PEO (HRD) and Mr.Nisar Khawaja (incharge HRD)

they both helped me out to understand the functions of Human Resource. Within

between the employees at Pakistan Steel Mill, Human Resource Department is busy

keeping those employees organized and prepared for the work they are all assigned.

Overall my work at Pakistan Steel Mill was very administrative. I did a lot of filing and

paperwork type tasks that didn’t require me to utilize much of my HR knowledge. If I

had been thrown into an internship that required me to have a lot of in depth knowledge

about Human Resources activities I don’t think I would have been very comfortable. I

feel confident in my knowledge and what I’ve learned in classes but I don’t think I would

be ready to take on projects just yet. My internship at Pakistan Steel Mill helped ease

me into the world of Human Resources without overwhelming me.

My Responsibilities

Filling satisfaction form by meeting individuals

Online screening resumes

procedures for handling routine personnel changes.

What I’ve Learned

It was nice to go to my internship and realize that what I’ve been learning in my classes

is present in the work environment today. One thing I will make sure to do when I go

out into the Human Resources field is to keep my HR literature that I’ve read in previous

classes close at hand. Those resources will be very helpful to refer to if I need ideas or

if I need help stimulating new ideas. My supervisor and the HR Director both have book

shelves dedicated to books on HR topics that they can look at during any point of the

day. I don’t know everything there is to know about Human Resources and I won’t be

able to remember everything so it is a good idea to keep the possibility for error to a

minimum.

As I’ve learned in previous classes as well documenting incidents that occur in the work

environment is very important. Human Resources professionals should make sure to

write down everything situation that they are involved in. Creating a daily journal that

lists of the day’s activities is a good idea. If any employee takes legal action against

your company, the Human Resources department is responsible to help build the facts

against that employee, if the company isn’t in the wrong. HR has a duty to the company

their in to manage their employees efficiently. One major part of that is developing good

relationships with employees so there is no need for them to file legal complaints.

There are cases where situations can not be handled without legal action so it’s

necessary for Human Resources to have documentation stating what took place during

the incident.

The last point I want to make about what I’ve learned from my internship is the overall

importance of the Human Resources department. It is obvious from the interactions my

supervisor as well as the HR Director makes with the rest of company how pivotal their

department is to the rest of the company. Supervisors are in meetings with either

individual employees or with whole departments on a daily and weekly basis. They

constantly need to keep thinking how to make their department more strategic and how

they can help the rest of the company to become that way as well. HR is an integral

part of any company and this internship helped to reinforce my desire to work within an

HR department.
