| DOST
is an acronym that stands for Dedicated
to On – Boarding Support and Training.
The scheme begins with the entry of a
newcomer into a team and facilitates his
or her effective and quick integration
into the organization. On entry, he /
she is provided with a friend labeled
DOST, who will facilitate overcoming
teething problems in a smooth and
hassle-free manner. From the time they
are introduced to each other, they are
called DOST and protégé /ward. A
newcomer feels lost in the organization
as he/she faces difficulties in
understanding and fulfilling the
formalities of various departments.
Besides, understanding the processes and
culture independently poses a challenge.
All these are addressed by offering a
senior person in the same department as
a companion to the newcomer through
DOST, who could support and be a
companion to him / her for the first 90
Days.
The DOST is entrusted with the job of
imbuing the joinee with the
organization’s business, culture,
values, policies and procedures in a
systematic manner. DOST is a one-point
contact for the newcomer, whether he
wishes to contact the Human Resources or
Administration Departments or for
knowledge of facilities like food joints
or a medical store in the vicinity. The
scheme is applicable to all full-time
joinees of NBHC, right up to the senior
management level. Quick integration of
joinees into the organization also
contributes to growth and productivity. |
