COMPETENCY MAPPING OF THE EMPLOYEES (A STUDY OF CIMMCO SPINNING MILL, SOLAPUR)

Abstract

In the present scenario, the world had changed into a global village. In this small world, every company is striving to survive. In this situation, the biggest challenge for a company is to have a competent staff. This competent staff can be built by assessing and determining one’s strengths as an individual worker and in some cases, as part of an organization. This process is known as competency mapping. The purpose of this paper is to explain the process of competency mapping and to assess the gap between the present and desired competencies of the employees. We conducted this study on the basis of an existing and well tried questionnaire, followed by interviews to understand how competency mapping is done and its impacts on employees. This research paper is divided into distinct parts. The first lays down the background, the second lays down the definitional premise within which competencies can be studied. The third lays down the methodology of the present study and examines the data generated by the investigation and the fourth treats the relationship between competency mapping and employees satisfaction towards it while the fifth posits a conclusion.
