An induction policy to provide a framework for identifying and sorting out any initial difficulties which can occur in the early stages of starting a job.

For existing members, it also helps clarify how to support new members effectively.

This peer review policy and procedure aims to support all employees to achieve and maintain their maximum (reasonable) contribution to their role at the project. It’s an opportunity for all employee members to have time to reflect on their role, to think about how their work is going and what the issues are. It’s a chance to have someone else engage with their job, listen to them and support them with anything they need help with, and to grow and develop within the role.
