For an overall efficiency of work, suitable training to the workers at all levels is an absolute necessity. To acquire a higher standard of efficiency in production, training is imparted to the employees right from the level of unskilled workers to the specialised executive staff. Whenever new techniques and new machines are used in the construction process, workers must be trained for their jobs. Such training schemes are always conducted to keep the production process up-to-date. By giving such training, wastage can be minimised, machines and equipments can be properly utilized and the cost of construction can be reduced to a minimum. The cost of training can be easily recovered through the reduction in the drawbacks, on the part of the workers in their day-to-day working. The organisation can earn larger profits and the workers also get higher wages because of increased productivity.
