Although the hiring process for contractor positions is thought to be handled by
the HR division of a company. Chevron Bangladesh has been managing this
though the Hire of Labor (HOL) process which is under the ownership of the
Supply Chain Management (SCM) division of the company. The suppliers in this
case, called the HOL agencies have been helping to fulfill the staff augmentation
need of the company since its operation in the country. With the business
expansion of the company in Bangladesh, the need has been growing ever since.
As the company can only hire a certain number of regular employees in a
particular business year, rest of the workforce support is being covered through
the HOL process. Certainly, SCM has to work cordially with HR and the whole
company in supporting the recruitment of contractors. I had the opportunity to
work vel}' closely and understand the HOL process being a part of the Contract
dh~sion under SCM as an intern. This report is the reflection of the new
processes and learning that I got exposed to under the 4 months period of my
dedication and hard work. I have started the report with the history and
overview of Chevron Bangladesh, the departments in the company and moved
on to the description ofthe HOL process. My role and responsibility as an intern
and my contribution to the process during the internship period is also
described along with the learning I received. As the main part of the report, I
have pointed out some of the challenges that the company still face under the HOL process and finally recommendations on how to improve the whole process
and efficiently SUppOlt the staff augmentation need of the nation's 1argest gas
producing company.
