Induction refers to the process of welcoming and orienting new employees to an organization. The goals of induction include reducing employee anxiety, introducing them to company policies and culture, and ensuring they understand their roles. It involves providing information about the company, workplace, job responsibilities, and who to contact with questions. Effective induction methods include formal presentations, one-on-one meetings, and collecting feedback over an employee's first few months. While induction helps employees adjust, programs must be concise to avoid confusion or boredom among new hires.
