Induction Policy and Documents
The induction process is crucial to motivating and retaining newly appointed employees, whether the employee is new to the organisation as a whole or is starting a new job with the same employer. Induction Policy and Documents contains an up-to-date policy which will help you ensure that you have an effective induction process in place, in line with the requirements of the Equality Act 2010 and includes a checklist and feedback form to help manage the whole induction process.
What is the purpose of induction?
Simply put, an effective, well-planned induction ensures that a new employee integrates quickly into their role in the organisation. Depending on the size and the complexity of the organisation, an induction course can last anything from a day to a week. A 'phased' induction can be helpful for the new employee and helps avoid information overload. Essential information like working environment, facilities, health and safety and essential policies (like expected behaviours, the Equality and Diversity policy) should be covered on day one, and then broader matters, like company values and culture, can be discussed further down the line. However, the most important aspect of induction is for the manager to keep checking in on the new employee regularly, ensuing they are settling in well. The more supported a new employee feels, the quicker they will start to become a productive team member.
The Induction Checklist Form allows the line manager to check that each part of the induction process has been completed, while the Induction Feedback Form can be used for an employee to give feedback on their induction and improve the process for new joiners in the future. The New Starter Form contains the information you will need in order to ensure that you have met your obligations as an employer e.g. evidence of the right to work legally in the UK and tax forms (P45).
