    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because a programme of induction helps new employees to acclimate to their new work environment and understand their roles and responsibilities. It provides them with necessary information about the company's policies, procedures, and culture, which allows them to integrate smoothly into the organization. This sensitivity from the employing organization demonstrates their commitment to supporting new employees and setting them up for success in their new role.

    Correct Answer
    A. Contract of employment
    Explanation
    A contract of employment refers to a formal agreement between an employer and an employee, outlining the terms and conditions of their working relationship. It establishes the rights and obligations of both parties, including job responsibilities, working hours, salary, benefits, and other employment terms. This legal document ensures clarity and protection for both the employer and the employee, providing a framework for a mutually beneficial employment relationship.

    A letter of job acceptance is a promise to an individual that certain benefits will be provided if they accept the employment.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    A letter of job acceptance is not a promise to provide certain benefits, but rather a confirmation from the individual that they are accepting the offered employment. It does not guarantee any specific benefits or terms of employment. Therefore, the statement is false.

    Organisations that do devote sufficient time, energy and resource into the process of introducing new employeeswill experience much higher levels of employee turnover.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Organizations that invest sufficient time, energy, and resources into the process of introducing new employees are more likely to have lower levels of employee turnover. This is because a well-structured onboarding process helps new employees feel welcomed, supported, and prepared for their roles, increasing their job satisfaction and commitment to the organization. By providing proper training, mentorship, and clear expectations, organizations can reduce turnover and retain employees for longer periods of time.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    The acceptance of a job offer has to be in writing, or an oral form.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because the acceptance of a job offer does not necessarily have to be in writing or oral form. Acceptance can be implied through actions or conduct, such as starting work or performing job-related tasks. While it is common for job offers to be accepted in writing or orally, it is not a requirement.

    The ______ function should take a lead role in the overall co-ordination of a new employee’s integration into the organisation

    • Line manager

    • Employees

    • HR

    • Supervisory

    Correct Answer
    A. HR
    Explanation
    The HR function should take a lead role in the overall coordination of a new employee's integration into the organization because HR is responsible for managing the recruitment, onboarding, and training processes. They have the expertise and knowledge to ensure that new employees are properly integrated into the organization and have the necessary resources and support to succeed in their roles. HR also plays a crucial role in establishing policies and procedures that promote a positive and inclusive work environment, which is essential for new employees to feel welcome and supported.
