Employee management in First Security Islami Bank Ltd. during Covid-19 pandemic

Abstract

The successful journey of my undergrad study in BRAC University for four years has been ending with the submission of this Internship Report. In these four years I have got to learn a lot of things. But I couldn’t implement this knowledge during that time practically. Through the internship program I have got the idea of the actual environment in a workplace and could relate the learning with it. Well, I have done my internship in one of the well-known Banks of our country which is “First Security Islami Bank Ltd.” During the three months time period my main purpose had been to understand the “Employee Management Function” of the bank during the pandemic. In this report I have provided basic information about the company and showed its current market condition. According to the topic of my report I have tried to analyze that how the top managers manage the huge number of employees and what are the challenges they have been facing to do that during the pandemic situation. We know that the employees who work in the banks are among the frontline fighters of the pandemic situation. So, it has been very challenging for the manager to manage the employees effectively. I have found FSIBL doing quite well in Employee Management function. The manager has tried to ensure all the wellbeing of the employees and provide necessary support in the workplace during the pandemic. He has also endeavored to boost up the employee performance and introduced special compensation as reward for the employees who have worked very hard and have shown excellent performance overcoming the challenges of Covid-19. The company has also maintained their pay scale quite satisfactory for the employees. Besides these, I have found few shortcomings in the employee management of the company during the pandemic. The company hasn’t introduced any special training and development program for the employees to face the crisis created by Covid-19. Sometimes maintaining the social vii distance has been very difficult in the workplace which has been very risky for the employees and their family members as well. In short, in my report I have tried to explain all the things that I have learnt through my internship period specially the HR Management function during the pandemic and put on some recommendation for the company.
