The induction period is the most rewarding time for any employee. Apart from the basic job knowledge, it also teaches values and helps build a flamboyant personality. It encompasses a brief overview of the company and the role played by the employees.

Induction can be relatively boring if the teaching methods are one-way. Interactions and discussions are the most effectual methods of conveying the message. Even if the employee doesn’t remember what the trainer spoke, he/she would always remember what they spoke hence it is important to share views.

A session to discern other employees is also essential. A new employee has high levels of anxiety and may not find comfort in discussing it with a senior. To kill this anxiety a co-employee or trainee can act as a refuge. Thus it is important to initiate camaraderie amongst trainees.

The orientation programme is designed to leverage employee commitment by putting forward a self enhancing proposal. It shows why a particular employee is important to the company and how can their efforts add value to the company. It also specifies the various departments of the company and the department the trainees will be affiliated to.

The programme conveys to the employee what exactly they need to expect from the company and what the company expects out of them. The basic amenities that will be provided to them, the working hours, payment module, holidays, rules and regulations, dress code, goals, why and how the task has to be actuated, technical skills, etc. are the few essentials of orientation.

After the induction process a feedback system can be addressed that tells you how much did the employee understand and what changes need to be implemented to help them deduce the ideas. The employee can be asked to demonstrate the techniques learned and at the same time can help other new joiners so that he/she can get polished.

The seniors should help the employees in the initial days as there exists a huge difference in learning something and putting it into practice. An employee may grasp the techniques quickly but lag behind while implementing them hence a mentor should be assigned that guides them to work effectively.

Induction is an on-going process and does not end within an anchored period. Everyday brings a new challenge for the employee hence each day can be regarded as a learning period.

Hi,
I also believe the same that Induction is the first experience and interaction between the employee and the organization. It creates a comfort level of understanding of the nature and environment of the organization where the employee will start his work. Induction can also be referred as first formal interaction.
