Question

What is meant by the orientation of employees?

Answer 1

After accepting the job offer, it is important that individual’s expectations from the organisation and organisation’s expectations from the individual match each other. On joining, employees want to know their superiors, co-workers, organisation structure, basis of departmentation, framework of authority-responsibility structure etc. Induction and orientation programmes enable trainees know about the organisation. They introduce the trainees to the organisation and help them carry out their work effectively.This is called orientation.
