Topic- To analyse the benefits of training the newly hired staff for diversity in
a large and diversified business organisations. A case study on
Sainsbury’s.
Introduction
Equality and Diversity at workplace can be defined as the two crucial elememts which are
required to be understood in a detailed manner because this term is something that may make or
break an organisation in a short time of span. It has been analysed that, newly hired staff majorly
goes through a range of difficulties in their probation period because they actually don’t have
much information about what type of culture the company is following and how the existing
employees will communicate with them because it is maybe possible that they may belong to a
different culture or belongings. It is much required for organisations to develop training sessions
for the diverse inspired workforce and help them with a range of actions that they can take while
working with each other in much effective and efficient manner. Sainsbury's, was specifically
facing this issue because it is already working at a large scale and newly hired staff members
world facing problems because they were not aware of the culture that has been followed by the
company and this raised high employee turnover ratio and this impacted negatively on overall
performance level of firm.
Background of the investigation
Over the years, there are many organisations which are working at international level are going
through different range of difficulties while managing equality and diversity at workplace. When
it comes to mould newly hired staff members in the working environment with existing
employees, most of the organisations deal with problems. It has been analysed that training is
considered to be the only solution for them to help new staff members to get the knowledge of
what exactly the culture is being followed by the company and understand it properly so that no
conflicts may takes place among existing and new staff.
Research Aim
Aim of this investigation is “To analyse the benefits of training the newly hired staff for
diversity in a large and diversified business organisations. A case study on Sainsbury’s.”
