EBECUTI=E SUMMARY
Induction is the beginning of the fusion process which helps
integration between the organi=ational goals and the personal
goals of the new employee. Induction welcomes the new
employee, creates a favorable attitude, and reduces labor
turnover and increases commitment and productivity. Induction
may also be viewed as the sociali=ation process. 2he organi=ation
has provided the researcher with the topic 'I/P3R21N+( 3<
IN*,+2I3N 1& 1 P38I+4) as 51&&I1 feels it .uite an essential
policy in comparison to other policies. 2he success of the
induction course depends upon the .uality of trainers and their
ability to draw out the interest of their listeners. 2herefore 51&&I1
considers induction policy to be the -rst stepping stone of an
organi=ation. 1s it is rightly said -rst impression lasts long so
induction program needs to be a success.
*ASSIA PAC)A4IN4 P=T LTD was an ideal organi=ation to help
the researcher to continue him survey and successfully conclude
it. It is indeed a learning experience for him as he got to know the
practicalities of an organi=ation and its employees. 51&&I1
P1+619IN9 is a fully owned subsidiary of 34&21R 9roup. In recent
times its turnover is around ;> crores and about ?$ employees
work there. 2he researcher adopted the .uestionnaire method as
well as observation method to conduct her survey. &ome results
were .uite expected and some .uite shocking. /any respondents
are not aware of what all is going in 51&&I1 which is .uite
essential for them to know.
/any respondents have di@erent views regarding the process of
induction, satisfaction of the newcomer, purpose of induction,
need for training and development, time slot for induction
program, panel conducting the induction program. /a:ority of
51&&I1 employees are satis-ed with the existing induction
program and they feel training and development is essential after
induction program. 2hey are also agree with the time slot for
induction program. 1round A$ samples are .uestioned and the
survey is descriptive in nature. 1 combination of random and
purposive sampling has been used .*ata are collected from both
primary as well as secondary sources.
M&A 9 12 /
&ome organi=ations perhaps, have missed the opportunity of
learning from each otherBs experiences and building on the best
practices evolved elsewhere. (ven though the concept of
induction is .uite old, but still a lot is to be done so as to make it
e@ective and worthy.

INTRODUCTION
3rgani=ations are run and steered by people. It is through people that goals
are set and ob:ectives are reali=ed. 1n organi=ation follows some important
procedure to increase the eGciency and e@ectiveness of its own. 8ike
Recruitment, &election, Induction, 2raining etc. 7hen an organi=ation

a sense of pride in the organi=ation and commitment to the :ob. Induction or
otherwise called orientation program intend to make the new employee
versatile and more comfortable within the organi=ation.
Induction program is essential to every organi=ation. 0y this program new
employees catch very .uickly the companiesB rules and regulations and also
.uickly understand the ob:ectives of an organi=ation.

current position, and the bene-ts for which he is eligible, leave rules, rest
periods etc. 1lso covered are the more routine things a newcomer must
learn, such as the location of the rest rooms, break rooms, parking spaces,
cafeteria etc. In some organi=ation all this is done in formally by at teaching
new employees to their seniors, who provided guidance the above matters.
8ectures, hand books, -lms, groups, seminar are always provided to new
employees so that they can settle down .uickly and resume the work.
&ome of the organi=ation using the buddy scheme method for their induction
program. In this method the new employees are accompanied by a senior
from the similar department he has :oined and they are the trainee of the
newcomer.
Induction helps the newcomers to interact freely with employees working at
various levels and learn behaviors that are acceptable. 2hrough such formal

LIMITATION OF T*E STUDY
Number of respondents taken for this study was only A$.5owever the
researcher was constrained to select a small sample due to the
shortage of time available for the study.
/ost of the employees simply denied giving any responses#opinions
about this study or system.
2hough the techni.ue of data collection is .uestionnaire so the
researcher was unable to explain the .uestions personally to each
respondent. &o some .uestions were not given any answers because in
a .uestionnaire method respondents are not bound to give answers to
all .uestions.
&ome of the employees have responded .uite positively and openly.
&ome have negative responses towards the method but they gave
positive answers.

IMP"I$ATION OF ST%#&
7e canBt conclude or canBt fully believe the results found from
analysis tables, we canBt take any decision upon the ma:or -ndings or the
opinion ma:ority respondents gave because if the other respondents are
giving di@erent responses they must have some reasons the total of data
collection has its own drawbacks. &o implication must be given on the basis
of ma:or -ndings Ealso minor so the implication is as follows.
2he induction program should be more speci-c and unambiguous.
2here should be no biasness in the orientation program.
,sually most of the employee expects a lot from the induction program
but they are not satis-ed with the current induction program.
2he purpose of induction should not only be introducing them to the
organi=ation. Its policies and making them familiar with the old employees
rather it should be more developmental oriented.
2he design of the orientation program should be proper show that the
re.uired information can be supplied at a given session.
3rientation procedure should be thoroughly planned in the
organi=ation.
2he induction program should be conducted as stipulated in the
system.
2he 5R dept should play a key role in planning Ecoordinating the
orientation program in collaboration with the concerned like manager and
supervisors.
2he necessary information should be provided in the right time and
details should be properly explained so that they are clear about the work to
be performed.
2he 5R panel should be trained in the art of orientation of new
workers. 2hus induction should be treated as special duty.
&o the above implications may bring e@ective in the system but
the most important thing is that the induction program should be properly
designed and framed so as to make him#her feel at home and they must
think I am bring treated in the best possible way and fortunate enough to be
a part of this organi=ation.

In the present research the researcher has tried to cover almost all the
aspects of Recruitment but due to time constraints it was not possible to do
an elaborate study on it. &o as to evaluate and suggest for further research
an overall study needs to be done.

CONCLUSION FROM RESEARC*,
It is a real challenge for the 5R professional to make the
induction program more pragmatic to ensure that people trust in the
organi=ation. It is essential to balance sub:ectivity Eob:ectivity in the
induction program to make it employee oriented, workable and productive.
/oreover, the purpose of the program should be more developmental rather
than punitive in nature. Induction program is generally not informal in case
of such organi=ation. 3rientation course should not be too lengthy. 0ut the
induction program should start from the very beginning day when the
employee :oins the organi=ation. 2he initial introduction and the immediately
needed information should be given by the 5R manager to the new
employee from the beginning day.
2he success of induction program depends on the sincerity
shown by the management. It shows the importance and skills of the 5R
professional in an organi=ation. In the whole the induction program reduces
the employeeBs anxieties and provides them an opportunity to know about
the organi=ation and its people.
