The first step after getting your joining kit and getting all other formalities in an organization is Induction.
Organizations conduct Induction to make new joiners the aware of what the organization is all about.
Like how many departments are there and how many business does the organization runs. How do they operate from different locations.
Meeting the business heads, department heads and others. In induction they show their presentations of their Business and departments about how they operate.
Induction is very important for and organization and new joiners. This gives the new joiners and overview of their organization and what they should be proud of.....

Dear Samsamay,

I can see that in the previous replies all have written about Induction only. When a new employee joins a company he is led into an induction/orientation or an induction and orientation program. This really confuses many in HR as some believe it is induction while others refer to it as orientation.

Let me make it clear that these two are interrelated but different concepts that are parts of any initiation program that is designed to make a new employee feel relaxed and learn the rules and regulations of a company in an easy manner.

Induction comes first and then it is followed by Orientation. Introducing the New Employee to all in the Organization, Issuing Appointment Letter, Entering name of the New Joiner in Attendance, Leave Management System, Salary Programme and all other joining formalities including familiarizing the new employee with the Company Profile, HR Policies and Processes, Organization Structure, etc. come under Induction Process. We can take help of a Presentation to explain some of the aforesaid stuffs to the new joiner. Induction is shorter, mostly of a day or two.

Orientation is a more formal program and usually consists of familiarizing the new employee with his work environment, the job and tasks that the new employee is expected to perform. Initial on job training can be a part of Orientation. The entire process can take 1 Week to 2 Weeks.

Induction is done to get the new employees acquainted to the company norms and policies. For this the new entrants have to undergo various sessions, for example:
•HR Session- Wherein someone from the HR department explains the HR policies and functions to the new entrants
•Finance Session- Here someone from the finance team explains the various functions they perform. E.g.: Salary structure, deductions, benefits…
•Risk & Compliance Session- Here they are explained about the company’s do’s and don’ts
•Bank Session- A member from the bank that is associated with the company takes a session to open a new bank account
Other sessions would be- Social sessions, admin session, health and welfare session, etc… Depending on the size of the company these sessions may vary.
I hope this information helped you.

I agree to some of the points; but in some organizations joining procedure is the first priority step and then Induction & orientation in the 1 week after joining.
