The well established bases of promotion are <em><strong>seniority<\/strong><\/em> and <strong><em>merit<\/em><\/strong> .<\/p>\n<p><strong>Promotion Policy<\/strong>. seniority and merit suffers from certain limitations. To be fair , therefore , a firm should institute a promotion policy that gives due weightage to both seniority as well as merit .To strike a proper balance between the two , a firm could observe the following points :<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Establish a fair and equitable basis for promotion that is Merit and Seniority or both .<\/li>\n<li>A promotion policy thus , established should provide equal opportunities for promotion in all categories of jobs , departments and regions of an organisation .<\/li>\n<li>It should ensure an open policy in the sense that every eligible employee is considered for promotion rather than a closed system which considers only a particular class of employees . it must tell the employees the various avenues for achieving vertical growth through career maps , charts etc.<\/li>\n<li>The norms for judging merit , length of service , potentiality etc must be established beforehand .the relative weightage to be given to merit or seniority or both should be spelt out clearly .<\/li>\n<li>Mode of acquiring new talent should specified to all employees so that they can prepare themselves .<\/li>\n<li>Appropriate authority should be entrusted with the responsibility of taking final decision on promotion .<\/li>\n<li>Detailed records of service , performance etc., should be maintained for all employees , to avoid charges of favoritism , nepotism etc.<\/li>\n<li>It should be consistent in the sense that is applied uniformity to all employees irrespective of their background .<\/li>\n<li>Promotion policy should contain alternatives to promotion when deserving candidates are not promoted due to lack of vacancies at a higher level . These alternatives includes up gradation , re designation , sanctioning of higher pay or increments assigning new and varied responsibilities to the employees by enriching the job .<\/li>\n<li>A provision for appeal against arbitrary actions of managements and its review should be there .<\/li>\n<li>Promotion initially may be for a trial period so as to minimize the mistakes of promotion .<\/li>\n<li>Promotion policy , once it is formulated , should be communicated to all employees , particularly to the trade unions leaders . It should be reviewed periodically , based on the experience and findings of the attitude and moral surveys .<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/Human-Resources\">Click here for government certification in Human Resources<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Organisations adopt different bases of promotion depending upon the nature of the job , size and management of the organisation .
