  INTERVIEW OF ANEMPLOYER SAY :  Employing freshers is a time and energy consuming task.  They do not have any idea of what their job would entail, what sort of work they will have to do.  Employee's Attitude makes a lot of difference.  In the six months training period, the employee learns all the necessary aspects of his job.  Small-scale industries can not afford to invest in the training- experts or other type of training professionals. They have to engage a senior employee to train the new employees or do the job themselves.
• 4.
  ACTION DO  Advertises inthe local newspapers, websites, employment agencies for a position in the company besides a word-of-mouth publicity.  Trains and guides many fresh employees in the company, despite knowing they may not last longer.  Guides employees through unfamiliar aspects of their job and support.  Provides them with different skills teaching and information necessary for the job.  Try to build up their confidence about their job.
• 5.
  THOUGHTS THINK & FEEL:  Attitude of an employee matters a lot.  You can train the employees in new skills, equip them with the information, but how to change their attitude?  Training a freshly appointed employee for a period of 6 months, spending considerable time - energy & efforts on him takes quite a toll. It affects work performance.  How can the newly appointed employees adapt to their working environment in an economic, efficient and effective manner?
• 6.
  INSIGHT  A smallbusiness needs a way to help new employees adapt quickly & efficiently to their working environment.  Because long time to adapt & learn skills weighs on productivity and profits.
