Employee Induction
Employee Induction is an activity of introducing newly recruited candidate to the process
and culture of Organisation. It is conducted to make new employees feel comfortable with the
workplace and its environment so that they become socially comfortable and know their
professional responsibilities (Cattermole, 2019). Thus, Employee Induction program helps in
settling new joiner’s and provides detailed information of their roles and responsibilities in
Company. It is also known as Orientation, which helps in making new staff familiar with fellow
workers, subordinates, superiors. Manager ensures new employee must be aware of
Organisational policies, culture and its rules and regulation in order to work in effective and
efficient manner. Some of the Companies don’t organise Employee Induction program as they
feel this function can be performed by colleagues or subordinates of the new candidate. But
many Organisations lay emphasis on conducting the program as it helps in reducing the issues of
adaptability and adjustment to new working environment due to which the rate of turnover also
get decreased (Ganesh, 2016). The main objective of Employee Induction is to develop rapport
between firm and new staff and make them feel valuable part of business. Few Goals of
Employee Induction is to settle new candidates, make them understand about their
responsibilities and what is expected of them and ensures Organisation must receive benefit of
them.
