Hi Nelly,
Orientation and Induction are entirely different things. Induction comes first and is followed by Orientation. Induction is for a shorter duration, while Orientation is for longer.
Now comes the subject matter of Induction and Orientation; Induction means the introduction of the company, providing an overall preview of the company. It is more in the form of presentations. On the other hand, Orientation is the practical overview of the company, which includes introducing employees to different people in the organization, making them more familiar with everyone. This helps them understand the type of company they will be working for and generates a level of comfort within the organization.
I hope I have been able to help you understand the difference between Orientation and Induction. If you have any doubts, please feel free to ask me any questions.

Hi all.
As per me, I believe these are the more accurate differences between orientation and induction.
Orientation is the introductory stage which familiarizes the new employee with his/her new working environment by introducing aspects of the company such as:
- Company mission
- Quality and value statements
- Organization chart
- Business objectives
- Management
- Workplace facilities
- Work rules, regulations, and policies
- Employee benefits and incentives
Induction is the process of initiation into a new job or company by which a new employee learns about and becomes part of an organization. Induction ranges from formal orientation programs to informal familiarization and social events. Its overall purpose is to provide necessary information, facilities, and motivation to assist the employee in adjusting to the new work environment, learning the ropes, and becoming productive on the job. It aims to help him/her understand the company's expectations and convey what he or she can expect from the job and the company. It encourages the development of loyalty and enthusiasm towards the company and gains employee commitment.
Orientation can be completed in a day or two and is much simpler to organize and conduct, and is less time-consuming. Induction, on the other hand, involves ongoing, systematic training and support for new employees beginning before the first day of work and continuing throughout the first two or three years.
In other words, orientation is one small activity that takes place during an overall systematic long training process known as induction.

Dear nidhibhatnagar99,
Congratulations on your first post! Despite being a member since Feb. '09, you waited patiently for a year to send an appropriate response; and what an amazing value-addition by precisely pointing out the difference between Induction and Orientation, and explaining both terms! Thank you for sharing such excellent inputs.
If we see the origin and dictionary meaning of both the words, the difference and significance become amply clear. "Induction" comes from the Latin root "inducere," meaning to bring in; to introduce. One of the meanings of "Orientation" implies aligning or adjusting oneself or one's ideas/awareness with reference to a place/surroundings or circumstances.
Warm regards.

Hello all,
Please learn from Raj Kumar Hansdah's post on how to avoid plagiarism by indicating the source. There is no point in cutting and pasting information from the web without proper editing. I have sent a private email to the person who has copied content from a website.
Another appeal is for bloggers to search the web for answers before posting general queries. For instance, I searched the web and discovered several links at http://www.google.co.uk/#hl=en&amp;source=hp&amp;q=induction+and+o rientation+definition&amp;aq=1&amp;aqi=g4& amp;amp;aql=&amp;oq=induction+and+orientation+ &amp;gs_rfai=&amp;fp=2790f0351a245477. One of them is http://bnet.com <link updated to site home>
Have a nice day.
