Dear Sir/Madam,
I wonder if the induction includes orientation as well as socialization? It is hard to tell if each one is different from the others because their functions and forms are similar. Thank you for your concern.

Hello Yang. Yes, inducting new employees should be about starting the socialization process as well as familiarizing them with tasks, procedures, etc. And this is the challenge where most of the induction is done “online”. The first few hours/days leaves a lasting impression on the new hire. This is the organization’s chance to win the heart as well as the mind of the new recruit.
Assigning a “buddy”, inviting them to team meetings and onsite and offsite social occasions, having plenty of dialogue with their new boss; all of these things well help to engage the new employee and get a committed and productive worker.

Dear Yang,
Greetings.
Induction training is a must for the smooth performance of a person in a new environment. It is different from socialization, where a person may be introduced to a mass audience. Through induction, we can reduce the attrition rate, improve efficiency, productivity, create a sense of unity, and instill pride in the company's ethics.

Dear Les,
Even you said that most of the induciton is done"online", this is not the case in some industry. Like in hotels, it is impossible for new staff to learn the work requitrments without invovling in practical places. I wonder if the induction conducted in hotel is different from other workplaces'? Thanks for your conern again.

Dear Yang,
Orientation covers activities related to introducing new employees to the organization and their work units. This includes the company's history, philosophy, objectives, rules, and policies/procedures being communicated to new employees.
The socialization process plays a crucial role in influencing employee performance and helping them understand the correct way to perform their jobs. It consists of three stages:
1. Prearrival
2. Encounter
3. Metamorphosis
A successful socialization process leads to increased work productivity, commitment to organizational objectives, and a decision to remain with the organization.

Hello Yang. I did not mean to imply that most companies conduct inductions online. In fact, this is not the case. For some companies, induction is a mix of offline and online activities. I was trying to say that for those companies for which most of an employee’s induction is conducted online, that this presents a challenge in socializing the new employee. Thank you for allowing me to clarify.

Yes, induction is a process of orientation as well as socialization. It is concerned with familiarizing new entrants with company policies, working patterns, and introducing them to other employees. In a way, it is a process of making new employees comfortable within the organization.
