Question
Induction training is the same as on-the-job training?
Solution
Induction training is different from on-the-job training in that:
- On-the-job training refers to internal company training, while induction introduces new employees to the organisation.
- On-the-job training focuses on job skills, while induction training introduces new employees to the company's history, organisational structure, policies, procedures, and regulations.
- On-the-job training involves a superior or trainer guiding the trainee and allowing them to observe and learn on the job. It provides first-hand job knowledge. During induction training, top managers present lectures to new workers about the company's history, activities, and policies.
