Analysis:

From the interview with the senior manager of the company we have come to know many

things about the reinforcement program of their company. From the discussion with the

assistance manager of the company we found that, the reinforcement program conducted by them

is very effective to motivate their employees. The percentage of work, attendance, turnover rate

is always being evaluated to ensure the better performance of the company and on the basis of

these performance stated above they give rewards to their employees. These things make them

motivated and satisfied with the job. The top management of the company is always concerned

about the quality of the service provided by them to survive in the competing market and for this

reason if anything is found wrong or disturbing situation made by any employee then they take

effective steps to control it by giving punishment, demotion, over-time etc. By following these

principles they are always trying to make their employees more productive for the company and

in this way they are running their business effectively and performing well consistently.
