Training and Development:
With our policy of internal promotion and training, we aim to give each employee
the opportunity to develop their career. Opportunities are available to all
employees irrespective of nationality, colour, race, gender or ethnic origin.
Our approach to training can be summed up as follows:-
All employees on joining OCS require in-depth induction and initial job
training identifying the philosophy and making them feel a part of a professional
team from the very onset of their career. Any training needs have to be
identified quickly and a training package formulated, planned and the results
documented. We will constantly update and evaluate the effectiveness of
their training; this can only be achieved by post training evaluation on
site in the employees’ place of work. Our employees need to be encouraged
to develop and expand their field of knowledge, their skills and abilities.
Our Managers will be supported in the development of their training skills
to ensure that the training that they give is of the highest possible standard.
