2.3 IMPORTANCE OF ON THE JOB TRAINING

Training is about gaining the skills needed for a job. These may be learned at the

place of work on the job or away from work off the job. On the job training tends to

be more cost-effective and relevant. However, off-the-job training is usually carried

out by professional trainers. It also occurs away from the distractions of work.

training is more about the individual making the employee more efficient at a job

or capable of facing different responsibilities and challenges.

working in group ,competition among visitors and employees to come to work on

time, solve work problem , attention to work and take care not to fault or problem

gives information about work practice .

within the given time period with the best performance.

3.5 CONCLUSION

OTJ Architects works with organizations at different times in their growth and

development. The challenges of working with a start-up tech firm or a well-

established non-profit organization are very unique. Assessing organizational

changes like growth or contraction, reacting to a change of leadership which leads

to a change in vision, or simply adjusting to the changing work force are all issues

organizations face at some point. Developing and implementing workplace

strategies that respond to these changes and look forward to future changes is a

part of the success of any organization.
