Induction program.

Induction should be conducted on the first day of the new recruit from the gate of the
organization itself. For induction only higher management or Head of HR or Senior should be
addressing the new entrant. It should also involve the employees of the new entrant department.
An effective induction helps a new employee feel assured and comfortable in the new
environment, which is critical for early uptake in the new role. Induction should always be
interactive. It also provides an opportunity to the new entrant to engrain the original values and
ethics as well as the style of functioning. Escorting an new entrant will be one of the best and
most impactful induction step. It should always be interesting and must hold the attention of the
new employee.

Involvement in Induction programs ( not be's )

First of all Induction program must not/ should not include much of theoretical part. Bad
induction leads to stress and de-motivation. Arriving for a new job a bad induction can leave a
new starter worried, anxious and unable to perform their duties. More work for longer as the new
entrant struggles to become an effective member. It increases the workload, all the wrong
messages given to the new starter and can damage long-term implications.

Signs of bad Induction program are Too Short - during induction a new entrant should just not
give the mobile numbers or small brief as always remember either a person should have or
should not have knowledge, half knowledge leads to disaster. Too Hasty - A ten minutes brisk
walk and making him familiarizing about the exit or entry should not be the part of induction.
Too Boring - All the theoretical and long presentation with high figures involved is a bad sign of
induction. Impersonal - Avoid hours of speeches and presentations and voluminous policy
manuals or information packages. Too personal - It should not be related to the complete life
cycle of a new entrant. Neglectful - whosoever takes the induction should have complete
knowledge of the new entrant participation the induction program, Isolated and embarrassing.
