When someone first starts working for you, both you and they will benefit if you introduce them to their colleagues, explain their new role to them and describe how their work relates to the rest of the business.

As an employer, you have a duty of care to your workers. This includes making sure they can do the job both safely and competently and feel confident to do so.

The best way to help your new employee become familiar with your business and the job they are starting is through a planned Induction Process.

Whilst there's no legal obligation to carry out an induction, it is an entitlement and a structured programme will help you to be sure that your new employees get a proper introduction to your business. This has been found to improve retention rates during the first few weeks of employment, so getting it right is important.

A carefully planned Induction can ensure that you give your new employee all the information you are obliged as an employer, to give.
