“In learning you will teach, and in teaching you will learn.”
― Phil Collins
As a recruiter or an employer, you might be selecting the best employees suitable for the required designations. Previous work experience, achievements, qualification and a strong resume are some of the sectors you give importance to while hiring your employees. But the process does not end there. You have to continuously work to stay competitive in the business and for this you need to constantly upgrade your employees’ skills, education, knowledge and motivation.
Purshotam Company Private Limited has been one of the leading industrial distributors in the country for decades, specializing in metal marking machines. Even today, we emphasize on employee education, as we are certain that it will help us sustain our position at the top.
We believe that, the need for continual employee training and education not only benefits the company, but it also boosts the employees’ morale and makes them more productive. Employees gain immensely with such training sessions as they get to expand their knowledge base, and learn more about current metal marking machines and new metal marking technologies.
We insist that employers and recruiters need to be aware of the need and importance of employee education. You might have hired the best of employees, but stagnancy of knowledge leads to stagnancy of motivation and subsequent growth.
There are a few factors you can implement in your work space on a periodic basis, which will help you ensure that your employees’ skills and motivation are updated constantly:
Keeping Skills Current
This is about keeping your employees up-to-date with the latest technologies, software applications, the latest market trends, new logical methods and certain other ways to improve overall productivity and efficiency. These factors in turn will help to keep your business or company be at par with your competitors in the market. A company that does not keep up with the trends in business and is reluctant to change will be doomed eventually.
Training Methods
Many firms come up with computer-assisted instructions or workshops as training methods for their employees. Computer-assisted instructions help to monitor an employee’s progress and give a detailed feedback on the required areas of improvement. Workshop training methods include audiovisual aids, role-playing, games and lectures, which help to encourage employees to develop team spirit and also get to know other employees from different departments.
Cross-training
Many firms give cross-training to their employees to ensure that their staff is well-aware of the responsibilities and jobs of other employees and can also enable them to step in the other’s shoes in case of sickness, promotion or leave. This gives the organization an overall security and reduces dependency on only one employee for a certain task. This also enables the company to remain productive and carry on their routine tasks without any hurdles, even when they need to relocate their employees. Cross-training also helps the employees understand the jobs of other colleagues and develop a higher respect for their contributions. This also helps in morale boosting and also creating a good atmosphere in the work space.
At Purshotam Company Private Limited, we believe that continual employee education also helps businesses to retain their best employees, increase their overall productivity and keep their staff motivated, focused and competitive. Employees respond well to such growth opportunities, which eventually give them greater job satisfaction.
