Various HR processes, systems and structures have been revisited or initiated afresh under a composite HR system so as to bring in the desired linkages and inter-dependencies. Some of the major initiatives undertaken are as under:


  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP): Having understood the importance of workplace Counselling, our Bank has taken the first step in addressing the employees personal or workplace issues and up-keeping employees’ emotional well-being by introducing EAP program in association with professional counselling body. Work place counselling assumes significance where stress disorders have a substantial impact not only on the health of the employees but also they pose performance challenge to our Bank in terms of lesser engagement, absenteeism and low productivity from our employees. Thus, the employee assistance program – workplace counselling services offered by the Bank shall help in the up keeping of emotional well-being, happiness, productivity and engagement of employees in their personal and professional matters.

The contents are tailor-made to suit our needs.
    In view of the various initiatives being undertaken in different functions, Bank is hiring specialized people, having core competencies & relevant exposure for driving special assignments / projects. The expertise of such specialized staff not only meets the project requirements but also adds to strengthening the Bank’s presence in niche areas.

Baroda Gems

Bank of Baroda's HR function has very closely linked itself to the Bank’s operational & financial performance by putting in place and implementing a very objective and growth oriented state-of-the-art Performance Management System, Baroda GEMS, by assessing Business performance, Operational Excellence, Customer Experience and People Development.

As part of the Bank's Transformation Journey, the HR Vertical undertook a project to build a new scientifically driven and objective Performance Management System (PMS) with the objective of “empowerment” of its officers” to achieve their full potential. The new PMS is christened Baroda GEMS – the Growth and Empowerment Management System. This new PMS has been launched by the Bank in  2017 and no other Bank in the industry can boast of such  unique PMS System which is not just transparent & objective but fully oriented towards improving performance & enabling growth of individual officers/managers.

The objectives behind introducing Baroda GEMS are as under:


  • Laying down a more Scientific & Robust Target Setting Process

  • Ensuring greater clarity of roles & expectations

  • Better measurement of actual performance based on scientific & data-backed processes

  • Empowering the officers through regular developmental feedback

  • Strengthening our rewards & recognition programs

  • Ensuring greater transparency and objectivity in the entire process



Four key pillars form the foundation of Baroda Gems:

Results Orientation: In order to strengthen the performance culture in the Bank, every single officer has been assigned  focused Key Result Areas (KRAs). Every officer has been assigned 5-7 KRAs which reflect the actual job roles being performed by the officer. Earlier, only 20% officers (majorly branch heads) had KRAs linked to achievement of business targets. Under Baroda GEMS, this proportion is now 80% with almost all officers in branches now having budgetary and measurable KRAs which has enabled a very result/output oriented measurement, which is absolutely system driven with no manual calculation of scores, etc. for the budgetary/financial parameters. 

Objectivity & Rationality: In order to ensure that performance appraisal of each officer reflect their actual achievements, scores for measurable KRAs are system-driven. This significantly mitigates biases in the appraisal process. The officers are given Grades instead of scores.ss
In addition, every officer is allocated a “Cohort” – group of people performing similar role. For e.g. all officers managing deposits in small rural branches < 5 years old would belong to the same cohort.

Empowerment: The aim of Baroda GEMS is not just to measure performance, but to guide officers to enhance their performance. The bank launched “GEMS Insight” which is an online tool providing a monthly view of performance to all officers. In addition, an innovative feature of the tool is that the officers can deep-dive on each KRA to understand the exact drivers which can help them improve their performance.

Recognition of High Performance: In addition to recognition of performance through the annual appraisal, Baroda GEMS also provides a platform for “Spot Recognition” of performance by providing a platform to award “badges” to officers for exceptional work (e.g. customer centricity, team contribution). Such recognition is made visible to all officers to in turn, motivate them towards exceptional performance.


Some Key Result Areas are evaluated in terms of “Team Scores” where every officer in a branch receives the same score.

It is very closely aligning with Business by enforcing and institutionalizing the process and discipline of having monthly reviews on the monthly performance updates being provided by the Insight Tool at all levels i.e. Branch Level, Region Level, Zone Level & Bank Level.



Job Families and Career Path Scheme:

Our Bank has always believed that employees are the backbone behind its success and has always maintained focus on the proper development of people through training, exposure across various functions and role succession. To enhance the existing succession planning process and design specific career paths for employees at the Bank, 12 key Job Families have been identified with the following objectives:



Baroda Samadhan:

In order to address employees’ concern areas and grievances, Bank has envisioned to strengthen transparency and fairness in the grievance redressal mechanism, named as “Baroda Samadhan”, which not only just a machinery to resolve grievances but also enable to become aware of employees issues and expectations and be sensitive to their needs and well-being. lt will also facilitate in instilling the faith of the employees in the system and strengthen in all its dealing, the ethos of integrity, trust and transparency that our Bank strongly professes in all its dealing.

It will enable a better HR administration and bring in a more transparent system of handling employee grievances in a time bound manner, which in turn will lead to less number of issues/ grievances of employees and improve employee satisfaction.



HR Helpline:

Recognizing the need of many of our employees for quick resolution / replies to their issues / queries, a central HR Helpline is put in place which will take up issues regarding clarification / resolution / matters requiring support from Bank’s side expeditiously and informs the Bank’s response immediately for all employees on a continuous basis.



Employee Engagement Survey "Voice of Barodians"

Bank has conducted an Employee Engagement Surveys to understand the engagement levels of employees particularly their perceptions, beliefs, views etc so that it can tailor various HR activities/initiatives suitably in order to address the gaps and to improve the engagement levels of employees further.

Initiatives in Learning and Development

  • The entire training and development efforts of the Bank has been brought under one focused vertical of “BARODA ACADEMY”. With the objective of enhancing (1) the learning experience and development opportunities for employees, (2) help in better grooming and development of people in the Bank (3) create a learning organization and (4) significantly improve organization performance.

  • To provide alternate learning channels and build learning environment, Bank has put in place a robust learning and development initiatives, catering to the requirements of reskilling and knowledge up gradation.

  • Simultaneously, training has been aligned to specific job roles by introducing the concept of mandatory courses required for each critical role. Bank is also running mandatory certification programs that are necessary before deployment in critical roles like Credit and Risk Management, Forex, Treasury Operations, Compliance and Branch Head. Life cycle concept identifies the functional, mandatory and behavioural training needs for an executive/officer in the Bank at different levels of their career and addresses those requirements in a systematic manner.

  • Other than imparting functional training, Bank is also investing in sharpening the soft skills and behavioural training aspect for its employees. The Bank has an extensive learning and development function which caters to the training needs of employees

Introduction Of Life Cycle Concept (Lcc) Of Training:

Bank has introduced the Life Cycle Concept (LCC) of Training to address capability building needs of each employee at different stages of his/her career in the Bank. This concept maps the training requirement based on the job profile of an officer in different grade/scale and position in branches. This concept of life cycle training includes:

  • Identification of Roles: - All possible roles based on LCC of an officer from his initial journey as a junior officer to attain top positions up to General Manager are captured.

  • Training Levels: - Training programs are categorized in 1-5 level, first level being basic course while 5th level shall be of advanced nature in its input.

  • Training Modules- Learning expected to be acquired module wise to ensure systematic transformation of learning with relevant contents and total understanding by the trainees.

  • Learning Heads conclave: - All learning heads of Baroda Academies and Baroda Satellite Learning Units across the Bank has been conducted to sensitize them about the concept and design of training courses under the new approach.

  • Partnering with HR functionaries:- As the success of the new concept largely depends on zone/region HR functionaries with respect to identifying right target group for life cycle based training, therefore, a conclave of HR functionaries was first organized to sensitize them on various aspects for effective implementation.
