Induction Plan For New Employees | Managing People | Upskill People

Set your team up for a successful career with you

A good staff induction plan offers more than an introduction to the business. You need to make sure your new team member understands your company values, and the ins and outs of their responsibilities. Is the role what they expected? And are they demonstrating the skills you were assured they had during the hiring stage? This is the time to spot any issues, celebrate early successes, and make sure both parties are happy to move ahead.

Episode 4: The story

Team member Gemma’s performance and attendance haven’t been great. As it turns out, she wasn’t given a proper induction when she first joined the business. Charlotte needs to listen to Gemma’s perspective on the situation, and decide which steps to take next. It’s also been revealed that a staff member recently inducted by Charlotte has been helping herself to some stock – something that needs to be tackled fast. But how?
