Responsibilities of Employer for Interns – Quick Guide

How can organisations meet the requirements of today while also getting their employees ready for tomorrow? One approach is to develop a good program for internships. Employers hold certain responsibilities towards young grads. This is because their whole career depends on the first internship they join.

Companies planning to implement internship programs must have a strong planning for the same. Since interns would be employed in your company, it becomes your duty to train them, enhance their skills and mentor them. This will help them make their way through corporate work culture.
The below points are a quick tips prepared for the employers who are swamped with too much work. A briefing about an elaborate process of working with interns will assist them in better intern management.

•    Guide and mentor them with the job role and what’s expected from them.
•    Assign important responsibilities and tasks that contribute to the goals of the company.
•    Keep evaluating the interns and provide them with regular feedbacks.
•    Plan for the intern and their supervisor to meet often so that they can talk openly about expectations, upcoming tasks, and how the internship is going.
•    Encourage the interns to ask their questions and voice concerns.
•    Plan for and offer them enough instructions and supervision for a true learning experience in this internship.
•    Give the interns the tools and resources they need to do important tasks, work on their assignments, or maybe make connections with other people.
• Choose and hire the right managers and mentors who will help, guide, and answer questions during the internship.
• If possible, include trainees in important gatherings and meetings, so they can get hands-on experience and take part in business talks.
•    Invite them in corporate activities and events to meet and greet with new team members.
•    Provide competent setting that encourages a healthy and secure workplace culture.
•    Upon completion of the internship, provide a complete review to discuss accomplishments, highlight their gap areas and chances for improvement.
•    Have the HR set up sessions to help them with day to day work policies, health and wellness benefits and a list of contacts required in certain cases.

The development of an internship programme is a good approach to invest in future accomplishments of your firm. More often than not, they lead to discovery of future leaders. Hence, paying attention to, and implementing even the smallest of steps will only help raise your company ratings.
