ABSTRACT: Employees welfare refers to “the efforts made to provide good life worth for
employees”. Employees welfare means anything done for the comfort and improvement,
Intellectual or social, of the employees over and above the wages paid which is not a necessity of
the industry.”Organizations provide welfare facilities to their employees to keep their motivation
levels high. The employee welfare schemes can be classified into two categories viz. Intra-mural
and Extra-Mural. The Intra-Mural schemes are those schemes that are compulsory to provide by an
organization as compliance to the laws governing employee health and safety. The Extra-Mural
schemes differ from organization to organization and from industry to industry. The basic purpose
of employees’ welfare is to enrich the quality of life of employees and keep them happy and
contended. Extra-Mural benefits are the result of employer’s generosity, enlightenment and
philanthropic feelings. It is one of many ways for people to feel heard, cared for, to be informed
and to be involved. It is equally important to ensure that leaders and employees at all levels of the
organization are aligned to the culture of the organization and living it. Hence this paper
contributes the in-depth of analysis of both Intra-Mural and Extra-Moral and its impact on
employee satisfaction in South Central Railways. This study conducted with objectives of welfare
measures in South Central Railways and its impact on employee satisfaction Finally, results drawn
with basis of observations are Extra-Mural particularly on Sports, Cultural, Library, Reading,
Leaves on travel, Welfare Cooperatives, Vocational, Welfare facilities to Children and Women,
where as in Intra-mural particularly protective clothing, crèches, restrooms and drinking facilities
are in poor state to improve the rate of employee satisfaction.
