How To Perform On-The-Job Training

More about the book

On-the-job training is highlighted as the most common and effective method for job training, according to The Encyclopedia of Business. Despite its effectiveness, this training approach requires a substantial investment of time and resources, as new employees spend about 30% of their first 90 days in training. Additionally, the productivity of experienced workers may decline while they mentor new hires, and there is a risk of costly mistakes made by inexperienced workers during this period.
