The Ministry of Gender, Labour and Social Development (MGSLD) is committed to successful implementation of the Orphans and other children policy. Development of this guide is step in that direction that is aimed at ensuring that all staff involved in the orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) programme, are inducted in the relevant OVC policy, operational and program assessment documents to enable them perform their work effectively based on agreed framework and operation standard. The induction process is key in facilitating this commitment. This resource guide has been designed to provide information to support managers responsible for inducting employees involved in the OVC programme. This guide should be read in conjunction with the induction training manual for newly appointed public officers developed by the Ministry of Public Service.
