SUGGESTIONS

It is advisable to involve as many people as possible in the process, by splitting the responsibility and making it more interesting.

The new joinees should be given a welcome pack which encourages them for eg. An executive dairy with the name of the new employee carved on it.

Arrange for the newcomer to spend time with someone who is doing the same or similar job. This may help prevent mistakes or misunderstandings. This process is known as job shadowing.

CONCLUSION

An induction programme is part of an organizations knowledge management process and is intended to enable the new starter to become a useful, integrated member of the team, rather than being "thrown in at the deep end" without understanding how to do their job, or how their role fits in with the rest of the company.

A good induction programmes can increase productivity and reduce short-term turnover of staff.
