Induction – [risk and benefit]• Unsatisfactory performance and low job satisfaction• Absenteeism, high labour turnover and resignations or
dismissals• Tribunal cases if employees complain of unfair dismissal
because of inadequate training• High demands on managers• Accidents leading to injuries and/or prosecution• Mistakes which are costly to the company
(ACAS, 2005)

Induction (continued)http://staffportal.uwic.ac.uk/Units/
HumanResources/sd/Pages/default.aspx
With the best will in the world, induction cannot be described as a glamorous, exciting facet of people management. In fact, it often degenerates into a hastily organised chore – a task that line managers can see as being merely a distraction from more important duties…
(Rankin, 2006)
