Keep an induction record

Record the role, start date, relevant induction and the person responsible for confirming that the new starter understands the procedures.

Track training evidence

Keep certificates or course evidence with the staff record, including the date completed and any refresher requirement.

Review gaps before inspection

A manager should be able to identify missing records, expired evidence and training that is appropriate to the person’s responsibilities.
