At Nationwide Lift Services we are a firm believer in empowering the next generation of lift experts, training them up and investing in them so they can reach their full potential. We don’t believe leaving them to their own tools is right, so the young guns who work for us do training as part of their role (in which they get paid for). The results have been clear to us, they have been hungry to learn and expand their knowledge, learning from other staff and our engineers.
The next generation of lift experts have great potential to thrive and be masters of the lift industry, we pride ourselves with training our staff up and watching them excel in their roles, we cannot wait to see how far they will go.
On the job training can sculpt a brand new employee, who may not have a clue about the ins and outs of the industry to a master of all things lifts, the key is patience and high quality training material.
Benefits of on the job training:
- Real life examples and learning from more experienced employees
- Faster adaptation to the job
- Perform simple job tasks from the beginning of your career
- Good and loyal employees who are more likely to stay
- Attract the right type of employee
At Nationwide Lift Services, we firmly believe in hiring the next generation of geniuses, training them and watching their skills grow, we have some amazing examples of our young staff here are some below.
Tamzin, who is our newest employee is 21, she has only been with us for a few weeks and she is flying through work like a hawk and has been keen to learn the ins and outs of the lift industry. She is learning the repairs side of the business from our sales manager Brad and she is excelling in her work. Before working here she was at university and had a few jobs prior to this, but this is her first time working for the lift industry.
Daniel, who is part of our sales team is only 16 and has been doing well, he is brand new into the lift industry and has only been with us for a month (this is also his first job). he is learning the sales side of the business and has been learning from our longterm employees. In the short time he has been with Nationwide Lift Services, he has completed several training courses, done hours of research and put the work in, as well as winning us new business. a prime example of what the next generation is capable of.
Michael, who is in charge of the website, marketing and social media only recently turned 20 and has been with the company for just over 7 months, however he has been doing work in the background for us for longer than this. He has been making websites since a teenager and has always had a strong motivation for work. Before going onto looking after the website full time, he did sales/lead generation for a while. During his time with us he has made vast improvements to the website and social media and has 3 marketing qualifications under his belt, as well as winning us new business from the website.
Organizations with a strong onboarding process improve new-hire retention by 82%. It also increases productivity by 70%. Implementing on the job training has been proven to prevent a high employee turnover.
