Résumé

This study compares HR practices across six key industrial sectors in Gujarat using data from 315 HR professionals and employees. Primary and secondary data were collected through questionnaires, interviews, and reports. The analysis focused on areas like training, appraisal, compensation, work environment, feedback, career growth, and inclusion. ANOVA results show significant differences across sectors (p < 0.05), with FMCG and Manufacturing performing best, while Finance and Healthcare lag in several areas. The study highlights sector-specific strengths and gaps, offering insights to improve HR effectiveness and employee satisfaction.
