Induction

Induction

At LJMU we recognise that, to get the best results from our staff we need to ensure we provide them with the tools to perform their role to the highest possible standard.  The process of induction is a key part of preparing an individual for their job role, providing them with the opportunity to learn about the University and their local working environment.  Whilst making new staff fully aware of policies and procedures, it is our responsibility to ensure they settle into their role as quickly and as easily as possible.

The Purpose of the University induction is to:

• enable staff to settle into their job and feel welcomed to LJMU
• engender staff loyalty and committment to supporting the LJMU mission
• ensure staff members are aware of the LJMU values; that they understand and adhere to policies, codes of practice and procedures
• enable staff to confidently and effectively perform in their role, contributing towards achieving the University's strategic goals
