BSBHRM506 - Recruitment, Selection, and Induction Process Project

This project solution outlines the staff induction procedures at Bounce Fitness, encompassing three main stages: pre-appointment, center-level induction, and corporate induction. The pre-appointment stage focuses on making a positive first impression during recruitment, with HR providing comprehensive employment documentation. Center-level induction emphasizes integrating new staff into their working environment, clarifying roles, and providing support through experienced colleagues and regular performance reviews. Managers use a Team Member Induction Checklist to ensure all needs are met, with completed checklists reviewed during the probationary period. Corporate induction, facilitated by Human Resources, includes a Staff Induction Day covering the company's vision, values, services, staff facilities, and key policies, along with mandatory training. The process flows sequentially from recruitment to center integration and finally to corporate onboarding.

Staff Induction Procedures
There are three main stages to the induction of new staff
a. pre-appointment
b. school/service level induction
c. corporate induction
The following summarises each of these stages.
A. Pre-Appointment
It is important to regard the induction process as commencing with the initial contact between Bou
Fitness and the prospective employee established during the recruitment process. It is during this period
that prospective staff form initial impressions about us and it is crucial that they are positive.
Bounce Fitness policy aims to enhance our standing as a good employer and sets out the responsibilities of
Managers, Human Resource and other staff in respect of:
The quality of recruitment information provided to potential recruits
The quality of recruitment practices and procedures generally (refer to Recruitment a
Selection guidelines for more information)
Prior to the commencement of employment, Human Resource will also take responsibility for providing the
appointee with comprehensive and clear documentation detailing terms and conditions of employment.
B. Centre level Induction
The integration of new staff is critically affected by the quality of induction to their immediate wor
environment. Induction at this level must be carefully structured and should aim to put the new member of
staff at ease.

The new staff member’s immediate Manager, when planning staff induction at a Centre level, must take into
account the following:
Making arrangements to welcome a new member of staff
Ensuring that immediate and long term practical needs relating to the new member of staff
are identified and arranged where possible before his or her arrival
Clarifying roles and expectations
Familiarising him or her with the specific aims, practices and ethos of the Centre
Arranging for an experienced colleague to help the staff member settle in and adjust to their
new working environment. Typically he or she will provide guided tours of the facilities, answ
questions and provide practical advice.
Centre Managers are responsible for ensuring that new staff have the facilities and support that they need t
do their job effectively.
Specifically immediate Managers should:
Conduct, regular, constructive reviews of performance during the staff members induction
and probation period
Refer to the job description and in conjunction with the new member of staff identify initial
training and development needs
Support and encourage staff to meet identified needs, in liaison, as necessary, with Bounce
Fitness’ Learning and Development.
To assist the Manager in the preparation, delivery and evaluation of the new member of staff’s induction, a
‘Team Member Induction Checklist’ has been designed (for a copy see Documents/Induction). The checklist
needs to be completed by the immediate Manager, although some items may be delegated to the colleague
helping the new staff member settle in.
Before the first day of employment the Manager and new member of staff will receive, from Human Resourc
a copy of the Staff Induction Checklist, a ‘Staff Induction Handbook’ and a contract of employment.
Completed Staff Induction Checklists should be returned to Human Resources within 6 weeks, by th
immediate Manager. The Human Resources will action the staff development needs identified and monitor
and evaluate the induction process. A copy of the checklist should be kept by the new staff member and the
immediate Manager.
At a Centre level, completed Staff Induction Checklists should be revisited as part of the first probationary
review (see Documents/Induction/Probation procedures) and any outstanding development needs discussed
C. Corporate Induction
Human Resources will facilitate a ‘Staff Induction Day’.

Staff Induction Days will ensure that all new staff are welcomed to Bounce Fitness personally by the CEO (or
rarely, by a senior colleague), and are briefed by Human Resource staff on the following:
Bounce Fitness’ Vision, Values, History and Future
An overview of Centres and services
The range of staff facilities available
Maintaining and continuously improving the client experience
How Bounce Fitness manages and develops staff and how we communicate as a staff team
Key policies, procedures and practices, including an introduction to our intranet, Equality an
Diversity, Health and Safety, Learning and Development and Human Resource function.
The Staff Induction Days will also provide an opportunity for new staff to network and enrol onto the followin
Introduction to the Bounce Fitness Network and Microsoft Outlook
