- Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the perceptions about Employee Relations Programs (ERPs) by Non-managerial Employees (NMEs). An attempt has been made to identify the perception of ERPs provided by the organization beyond legal requirements and perception of NMEs regarding ERPs extended by the employers voluntarily. Primary data was collected from 300 NMEs working in the pharmaceutical industry in Bangladesh. Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) was carried out to determine how the ERPs provided by the employers were related to different categories of benefits with differential significance to the NMEs. A ranking was then performed by classifying the ERP programs to be either "employee-focused" or "family-focused", Employee-focused financial direct compensation category got the highest ranking followed by family-focused financial compensation category. Employee-focused financial indirect compensation category ranked third and employee-focused financial indirect compensation ranked the lowest. The findings have implications for non-managerial personnel engaged in the pharmaceutical industry.
