Training on entry – Improves worker-job matching and employee engagement

New recruits receive less training than employees with longer job tenure. Training on entry into post is provided less frequently for formerly unemployed individuals than for people already in employment prior to recruitment.

Such training would appear to be a means of improving worker-job matching or employee engagement with the work environment.
