Abstract
Suggests that structured on‐the‐job training, offered to operators in most divisions of the Dutch steel giant Hoogovens IJmuiden, has led to a more complete understanding of the chemical and mechanical processes involved, and a shorter induction period. Presents a case study of the way two groups of employees in the company are being trained for their jobs. Part of the training takes place on the job and part of it in an off‐the‐job course, and handbooks are found to play a major role in the actual training process. Documents were studied, and trainees, instructors, supervisors and training co‐ordinators were interviewed to find out if the training is effective on the shopfloor.
