Term Insurance Plans
Term Insurance or Pure Protection Plans are the most basic form of life insurance
plans. They enable you to secure your family financially, by offering a high life
insurance cover amount for a relatively low premium payment. You can pay these
premiums regularly, or at one go, depending on the life insurance policy you choose.
These insurance plans let you keep your family secure and financially independent, in
your absence. If you are the Life Assured, you pay a specific premium amount at
fixed intervals during your policy. In the eventuality of death during the policy tenure,
your family gets a pre-decided amount, called ‘Sum Assured’ as per the provisions of
your protection plan.

insurance amount. For example, if your annual income is 10 lakh, then
you can take a Life Cover of up to 1 crore.

2. Affordable Premiums: With Term Insurance plans, a large amount of Life


Cover comes at a small premium. For instance, you can get a Life Cover of 1
crore at a premium of just 17 per day^.

3. Tax Benefits: Term Insurance plans offer tax benefits** on premiums paid up
to 1.5 lakh under Section 80C. New-age Term plans with critical illness
cover also offer additional tax benefits on premiums paid up to 25,000 under
Section 80D. You also get tax benefits** under Section 10(10D) on the money
that your family receives in case of an unfortunate event.
4. Additional Security: To increase the security of your family, a Term
Insurance Plan provides double pay-out (up to 2 crore) in case of an
accidental death. For example, if your Life Cover is 1 crore, a Term
Insurance plan with Accident Cover pays 2 crore to your family in case of an
accidental death.

Health Insurance Plans


Health insurance is insurance which covers the cost of the policyholder's medical and
surgical expenses. Depending on the type of health cover, the insurance company
makes payments directly to the policyholder or the hospital. There is another option
where the expenses are paid by the policyholder and is reimbursed by the insurance
company on submission of relevant bills.

These insurance plans can help you secure your health against unforeseen
eventualities. If you buy a health insurance plan, you pay a specific premium amount
at fixed intervals during your policy or just once. During the policy term, if you detect
any of the covered illnesses, then the insurance company pays you the claim amount
according to the terms and conditions of the policy.

Plans;
 ICICI Pru Heart / Cancer Protect
 ICICI Pru Smart Health Cover

Need of Health Insurance No one plans to get sick, but a serious illness can strike
anyone. The cost of treating the illness can cause serious financial strain on your
savings. Today, the cost of medical treatment is continuously rising. For eg.
Herceptin, a cancer medicine costs approximately 1,10,000 for a vial of 440 mgs.
Depending on the weight, a patient usually requires 17-19 bottles for treatment over a
year. That's 18 - 20 lakh just for medicine. Then add hospitalisation costs, doctor
consultation fees, chemotherapy costs, etc. and overall expenses could exceed 25
lakh1. These costs which are already very high are increasing every year. That is why
most smart people have taken necessary precautions to insure their health.

Child Education Insurance Plans:


Child Education Insurance Plans are insurance plans that take care of your Protection
and Savings needs for securing the future of your children. As a parent, one of your
most important goals would be to make sure that your children have a bright future
and lead their lives comfortably. These plans can help you achieve this by saving for
your children’s higher education at a prestigious university.
In our child education insurance plan, you pay premiums for a specified period
(monthly, half-yearly, yearly or single pay). Once the policy term ends, you receive a
lump sum amount called the Maturity Benefit. In case of an unfortunate event during
the policy term, the company offers your nominee the Life Cover amount. The
company also waives the future premium payments* for the remaining policy term to
ensure that your children’s future is always secure. This benefit is available, provided
all due premiums are paid.

Insurance
Insurance is the equitable transfer of the risk of a loss, from one entity to another in
exchange for payment .It is a form of risk management primarily used to hedge
against the risk of a contingent uncertain loss.

An entity which provides insurance is known as an insurer, insurance company, or


insurance carrier. A person or entity who buys insurance is known as an insured or
policyholder.
A Study On Recruitment Automation Tool of ICICI
Prudential Life Insurance Pvt Ltd, Bangalore.

The insured receives a contract, called the insurance policy, which details the
conditions and circumstances under which the insured will be financially
compensated. The amount of money charged by the insurer to the insured for the
coverage set forth in the insurance policy is called the premium. If the insured
experiences a loss which is potentially covered by the insurance policy, the insured
submits a claim to the insurer for processing by a claims adjuster.

Insurance premium is a specified amount stipulated by the insurance company, which


the insured individual should periodically pay to maintain the actual coverage of
insurance. As a process, insurance companies examine the type of coverage, the
likelihood of a claim being made, the area where the policyholder lives, his
employment, his habits (smoking for instance), his medical condition (diabetes, heart
ailments) among other factors.

Insurance companies employ actuaries for the purpose of determining, for example,
the likelihood of a claim being for a heart attack or cancer or another critical illness by
individuals across various age groups and lifestyles. The greater the risk associated
with an event / claim, the more expensive the insurance premium will be.

Insurance companies offer policyholders a number of options when it comes to paying


insurance premium. Policyholders can generally pay the insurance premium in
instalments,
For example monthly or semi-annual payments or they can even pay the entire
amount upfront before coverage starts. In case of non-life insurance, like auto
insurance for instance, the annual insurance may be reduced a no-claim year.
Conversely, the premium can rise a claim year. Some types of insurance (such as
product liability insurance) are an essential component of risk management, and are
mandatory in several countries. Insurance, however, provides protection only against
tangible losses. It cannot ensure continuity of business, market share, or customer
confidence, and cannot provide knowledge, skills, or resources to resume the
operations after a disaster.

Insurance Industry
Insurance in India refers to the market for insurance in India which covers both the
public and private sector organizations. It is listed in the Constitution of India in the
Seventh Schedule as a Union List subject, meaning it can only be legislated by the
Central government.

The insurance sector has gone through a number of phases by allowing private
companies to solicit insurance and also allowing foreign direct investment. India
allowed private companies in insurance sector in 2000, setting a limit on FDI to 26%,
which was increased to 49% in 2014. However, the largest life-insurance company in
India, Life Insurance Corporation of India is still owned by the government and
carries a sovereign guarantee for all insurance policies issued by it.

Origin of Insurance in India


In India, insurance has a deep-rooted history. Insurance in various forms has been
mentioned in the writings of Manu (Manusmrithi), Yagnavalkya(Dharmashastra) and
Kautilya (Arthashastra).....The fundamental basis of the historical reference to
insurance in these ancient Indian texts is the same i.e.,pooling of resources that could
be redistributed in times of calamities such as fire, flood, epidemics and famine. The
early references to Insurance in these texts have reference to marine trade loans and
carriers contracts.
Insurance in its current form has its history dating back until 1818, when Oriental Life
Insurance Company was started by Anita Bhavsar in Kolkata to cater to the needs of
European community. The pre-independence era in India saw discrimination between
the lives of foreigners (English) and Indians with higher premiums being charged for
the latter.In 1870, Bombay Mutual Life Assurance Society became the first Indian
insurer.

At the dawn of the twentieth century, many insurance companies were founded. In the
year 1912, the Life Insurance Companies Act and the Provident Fund Act were passed
to regulate the insurance business. The Life Insurance Companies Act, 1912 made it
A Study On Recruitment Automation Tool of ICICI
Prudential Life Insurance Pvt Ltd, Bangalore.

necessary that the premium-rate tables and periodical valuations of companies should
be certified by an actuary. The oldest existing insurance company in India is the
National Insurance Company, which was founded in 1906, and is still in business.
The Government of India issued an Ordinance on 19 January 1956 nationalization the
Life Insurance sector and Life Insurance Corporation came into existence in the same
year. In 1972 the General Insurance Business (Nationalization) Act was passed by the
Indian Parliament, and consequently, General Insurance business was nationalized
with effect from 1 January 1973. 107 insurers were amalgamated and grouped into
four companies, namely National Insurance Company Ltd., the New India Assurance
Company Ltd. The General Insurance Corporation of India was incorporated as a
company in 1971 and it commence business on 1 January 1973. The LIC had
monopoly till the late 90s when the Insurance sector was reopened to the private
sector. Before that, the industry consisted of only two state insurers: Life Insurers
(Life Insurance Corporation of India, LIC) and General Insurers (General Insurance
Corporation of India, GIC).

Nature of Insurance
Sharing of Risk: Insurance is a co-operative device to share the burden of risk, which
may fall on happening of someone unforeseen events, such as the death of head of
family or on happening of marine perils or loss of by fire.
Co-operative device: Insurance is a co-operative form of distributing a certain risk
over a group of persons who are exposed to it. A large number of persons share the
losses arising from a particular risk.

Large number of insured persons: The success of insurance business depends on


the large number of persons insured against similar risk. This will enable the insurer
to spread the losses of risk among large number of persons, thus keeping the premium
rate at the minimum.

Transfer of risk: Insurance is a plan in which the insured transfers his risk on the
insurer. This may be the reason that may arson observes, that insurance is a device to
transfer some economic losses would have been borne by the insured themselves.
A Study On Recruitment Automation Tool of ICICI
Prudential Life Insurance Pvt Ltd, Bangalore.

Protection against risks: Insurance provides protection against risk involved in life,
materials and property. It is a device to avoid or reduce risks.

A Contract: Insurance is a legal contract between the insurer and insured under
which the insurer promises to compensate the insured financially within the scope of
insurance policy, the insured promises to pay a fixed rate of premium to the insurer.

Social Device: Insurance is a plan of social welfare and protection of interest of the
people. “Insurance is of social nature”.

Regulation under the law: The government of every country enacts the law
governing insurance business so as to regulate, and control its activities for the
interest of the people. In India General Insurance Act 1972 and the Life Insurance Act
1956 are the major enactment in this direction.

Based on Mutual Goodwill: Insurance is a contract based on good faith between


parties. Therefore, both the parties are bound to disclose the important facts affecting
to the contract before each other. Utmost good faith is one of the important principles
of insurance.
Types of Insurance:
A Study On Recruitment Automation Tool of ICICI
Prudential Life Insurance Pvt Ltd, Bangalore.

Life Insurance: Life Insurance is a contract between an insurance policy holder and
an insurance company, where the insurer promises to pay a sum of money in
exchange for a premium, upon the death of an insured person or after a set period.

General Insurance: Insurance contracts that do not come under the ambit of life
insurance are called General insurance. The different forms of general insurance are
fire, marine, motor, accident and other miscellaneous non-life insurance.

Why Life Insurance is important:


Life insurance is a great tool that will help your family in meeting their critical needs
and lead a comfortable life even when you are not around. This is because the insurer
will pay the Beneficiary of your Policy a predetermined sum of money after your
death. It could also be given if you are bedridden with a critical illness. Life insurance
is therefore the most essential insurance policy that you can have in your savings and
investment portfolio. Here are some important reasons as to why you should buy life
insurance:

Family’s Financial Requirements: If you are the only person in your family who is
earning, then the family’s income will cease when you are no more. With no steady
source of income, the standard of living will fall and they may not be able to meet
even basic needs like education. Therefore, your life insurance policy will come to
your family’s aid during such phases of life.

Draw Loans Against Insurance: Besides using your life insurance policy amount to
repay your loans, you can also use your policy to draw a loan against it.

Diverse Investment Options: You can also use your life insurance policy as a good
investment option. There are various kinds of insurance policies and you can use them
for different purposes. For example, retirement plans, child insurance plans, whole
life insurance plans, Term life insurance plans etc. are all good life insurance policies.
Except Term plans, which don’t have an investment component, all others are good
investment options too.
A Study On Recruitment Automation Tool of ICICI
Prudential Life Insurance Pvt Ltd, Bangalore.

Illnesses and Accidents: Life insurance policies are always a good protection tool
against the financial pressure that you will face during a serious illness or accident.
You can get treatment from the best hospitals without worrying about the financial
burden. Ideally, all insurance policies should be purchased when you are young and
free of illnesses.

Tax Benefits: Life insurance policies are a good way of saving tax too. Under Section
80c of the IT Act, many of the insurance schemes in India including the life insurance
schemes offer tax deductions on Premium payments. With diverse kinds of options,
insurance policies are today not just meant for insurance purposes but are also
attractive investment options. From childhood to old age, there are various options for
everybody. You should therefore consider your young family and purchase life
insurance policies early in life, when you are still young and free of illnesses.

Key Benefits of Life Insurance


Investment of Fund: In the coerce of their business, insurance by the way of
premiums collect vast sums. Especially in life business much of it can be invested
profitably over long periods. This benefits the nation as a whole because insurers are
required by law to invest the major portion in government securities and other
approved investment, out of which nation-building activities are undertaken.

Reduction of cost insurance: Income earned by investment of accumulated funds


further increases the fund and goes to reduce the cost of insurance for otherwise the
premiums would have to be higher to next extent.

Effect on prices: Manufacturers pass on the consumer, the cost of insurance along
with other production cost. Still it is beneficial to the consumers because without
insurance the cost would have been much more.

Invisible export: Providing insurance service overseas is our invisible export, like
export of

Material goods and the profit brought in is contribution to the favourable balance of
Trade.

Reducing cost of social services: No victim or heirs of a deceased victim of motor


accidents now a day goes without compensation from insurance funds built out of
compulsory insurance of motor vehicles and this is no small benefit social relief.

Which makes the documentation easy to the recruiter’s to hire the candidates This
guide serves as a convenient overview, providing an executive summary and
definition of what Recruiting Automation Tool is?.

Recruiting automation is a category of technology that allows companies to automate


recruiting tasks and workflows so they can increase recruiter productivity, accelerate
time-to-fill, reduce cost-per-hire and improve the overall talent profile of their
organization. Recruiting automation is a subset of Human Capital Management
(HCM), a category of enterprise software-as-a-service (SaaS) used by companies to
manage all aspects of their workforce.
A Study On Recruitment Automation Tool of ICICI

Fig(1)
Above fig(1) shows that it is the image how ripple hire stages can be seen.

Recruiting automation enables talent acquisition teams to automate processes that


were previously performed manually. These technologies leverage artificial
intelligence (AI), machine learning and predictive analytics and can be found at all
stages of the hiring process (pre-applicant, during the application process and post-
hiring decision).

Recruiting automation technologies are used by companies looking to increase their


competitive advantage in hiring. These companies recognize that the “status quo” way
of hiring simply doesn’t work as well as it used to in an of age of hyper-competition
for top talent. These companies are looking to achieve better results, in a shorter
amount of time and often with fewer resources relative to the goals they are trying to
achieve.

Examples of recruiting automation technologies can be found throughout the


recruiting funnel, from initial candidate sourcing to the final hiring decision. Some of
the categories within recruiting automation are as follows:
A Study On Recruitment Automation Tool of ICICI
Prudential Life Insurance Pvt Ltd, Bangalore.

 Candidate Sourcing and Engagement


 Candidate Screening and Experience
 Interview Scheduling Assessments, Interviewing and Background Check
 Candidate Relationship Management (“CRM”) / Recruitment Marketing
 Applicant Tracking Systems (“ATS”)
 Candidate rediscovery and Ranking

Competition for talent:


Historically low unemployment and an increasing skills gap has led to a war for talent
at many of the world’s leading companies. The intensification of the talent wars has
led many companies to invest in technology that can help them achieve engage with
qualified talent faster.

Information overload:
The sheer amount of information about candidates, from online profiles to inbound
resumes, is exceeding the ability of recruiting teams to process. Most recruiters
simply don’t have enough time to adequately source, assess and screen candidates.
Recruiting automation systems help companies analyze candidate data quickly to help
them make better decisions, fast.”

Better technology:
Recruiting automation is not a new idea. People have been talking about how
recruiting will be automated for many years. However, until recently the technology
did not exist at scale to move the needle on hiring efficiency. Recent advances in
artificial intelligence and machine learning and rise of open source software have
spurred innovation that makes the promise of more efficient and productive recruiting
teams a reality.

Recruiting automation is commonly known for the time savings and efficiency gains
it brings to modern recruiting departments. However, recruiting automation can bring
numerous other benefits. Chief among those is providing talent leaders with much-

needed insight into which recruiting programs are working and which aren’t. In
addition, recruiting automation and the accompanying analytics these systems can
offer provide talent leaders with the metrics they need to speak confidently to the C-
suite about the recruiting team’s impact on the growth of the business.

Productivity savings:
Recruiting automation technologies excel at eliminating inefficiencies from talent
operations. By instituting recruiting automation capabilities, companies can expect to
achieve an increase in recruiting staff productivity between 10 and 50 percent 1. The
biggest boost, of course, will come to companies transitioning from labor-intense or
manual recruiting systems or processes.

Faster time to hire:


The average time it takes to fill a given position in the United States is 42 days,
according to SHRM’s 2017 Human Capital Benchmarking Report 2. Companies who
enable recruiting automation reduce time to hire by between 7 and 15 percent, or 4.5
days per role on average. When multiplied by the cost per day of an unfilled position
– $500 average3 – and the number of reqs per recruiter per year – 40 average 4 – the
savings in vacancy costs reaches $90,000 per recruiter per year.

Higher quality candidates:


The recruiting automation process helps ensure that all the best-fit candidates were
identified and engaged in the recruiting process, resulting in better quality hires and a
higher performing organization.

If your team is having trouble hitting goals or scaling the recruiting processes you’ve
put in place, it’s time to focus your efforts on developing a recruiting automation
strategy.

Below are some good questions to ask yourself when deciding if recruiting
automation is the right move for your organization.
 Are your recruiters overwhelmed with the number of reqs on their plate?
A Study On Recruitment Automation Tool of ICICI
Prudential Life Insurance Pvt Ltd, Bangalore.

 Do your recruiters spend a significant portion of their time on administrative


activities?
 Are open reqs sitting unfilled for extended periods of time?
 Is your average time to hire above the benchmark for companies in your
space?
 Do you rely on outside assistance (RPOs or agencies) to fill your reqs?
 Do you have a proven strategy that you would like to scale?

LITERATURE REVIEW
The research articles in automation of recruitment have been just arriving. Now there
is a trend in research which has started focusing on automation of recruitment. Few of
these articles are mentioned below.

RECRUITING AUTOMATION (2019 Entelo. All Right Reserved) [Trends


Report]
With the current state of the labour market, recruiters must dedicate an increasing
amount of their day to sourcing in order to stay competitive. This is a clear area in
which automation can be leveraged to increase efficiency, offload tedious, manual
tasks, and as a result reduce time-to fill and cost-per-hire. It’s not surprising then that
when asked where recruiting automation would be most helpful, the majority of
recruiters point to sourcing.

Additionally, recruiting automation will play a larger role in planning for tomorrow’s
workforce. In 2019, 22% of talent organizations will increase their spend in recruiting
automation tools (up 30% YoY), leaning more heavily on predictive analytics to
provide actionable insights for talent acquisition, workforce mapping and planning.

Where Recruiting automation is most useful


Sourcing 39.6%
Candidate Qualification 15.8%
Interview Scheduling 15.8%
Engaging Candidates 11.9%
Team Collaboration 7.9%
Candidate Nurturing 6.9%
Over 80% of recruiters agree that Recruitment Automation can help increase their
productivity.

Bell, et al. (2006) [A Study Of HR Automation In Organization]


(International Journal Of Academic Research And Development)
Data collected through interviews with senior HR professionals from 19 Fortune 500
companies to examine the role of automation tools (recruitment) information
technology (e-HR) in shaping the competency requirements of HR professionals. The
data suggested that information technology has the potential to play an important role
in this change process. The HR executives we interviewed indicated that information
technology has allowed the HR function to focus less attention on routine,
administrative tasks and dedicate more energy to delivering services that add value to
the business. Interviews also indicated that e-HR require HR professionals to have a
sound understanding of the business and should have ability to solve business
problems with management. e-HR also provide specialization and expertise in
functional HR delivery. Together, these competencies enable HR professionals to
offer state-of-the-art services that are aligned with the business needs.

Beadles, et al. (2005) [2] [A Study of HR Automation in Organization]


(International Journal of Academic Research and Development)
The survey conducted in order to gather information regarding the implementation of
an HRIS, perceived benefits, satisfaction and its strategic impact, shows that the
directors surveyed were satisfied with the system, but don’t yet see many benefits

from its usage outside of its effect on information and information sharing. Part of the
problem may stem from the type of organizations that were sampled. Recruiting,
hiring, and training probably are handled somewhat differently for public sector
employees as compared to employees of private sector organizations, so HRIS in its
current form may not yet have had much positive impact in these areas. Yet, it
appears that there is potential for these benefits, as a large majority of the directors
believed that the HRIS was not being fully utilized. Variable studied were: HR

A developing and retrieval stage but despite of that it has positive influence on the
recruitment process. “The presence of these applications is scarcer for the most
complex and delayed in time tasks, such as decision making processes, because they
require, in return, more complex HRIS. It was also observed that two groups of
organizations lead the HRIS automation implementation trend: the parent companies,
with regard to their subsidiaries, and the largest firms in terms of number of
employees. This seems a logical finding because their more complex structures may
benefit more of the advantages of HRIS to increase the efficiency of their recruiting
processes.”
