Benefits of Providing Human Resources Training Videos to Your Team

Every major organization has a human resources team, department, or at least a single HR specialist that is responsible for recruiting new employees, interviewing, hiring, and handling things like compensation, sick pay and other benefits, training, and individual employee relationships. Providing human resources training videos to your team will help them to understand the ways that your human resources department or team works to help your employees have a healthy, safe, and productive work environment.  

In fact, by providing human resources training videos for your team, you can reduce employee turnover, build stronger leadership, improve worker relationships and balance engagement and communication among employees. At Beverly Boy Productions, we produce interactive training videos for industries large and small including human resources training videos that are great for pulling together your team and helping them to understand the many ways that your HR department can assist them.

Benefits of Human Resources Training

It’s common for new employees to lack understanding of important human resources topics. Providing human resources training videos that will assist your newly hired employees in understanding the various topics relative to HR in your organization can have many major benefits. In fact, the decision to train on human resources topics via human resources training videos is likely to result in the following benefits for your organization:

• Reduced employee turnover rate.
• Increased understanding of compensation, sick pay, and vacation time.
• Stronger employee communications with others.
• Improved employee relationships.
• Increased productivity among employee groups.
• Improved employee understanding of organizational HR resources.

Providing training on these, and other HR topics can have significant benefits for your team that you may not initially even realize you’re missing out on. Particularly, when you provide human resources training videos to newly hired team members you’re not only showing that you value them but you’re teaching them about all of the resources you provide for employees to make their work environment safe, enjoyable, productive and effective. 

Benefits of Human Resources Training Videos

While there are very specific benefits that can be associated with human resources, there are even more specific benefits that can be directly attributed to the use of training videos. The benefits of human resources training videos go beyond your typical improvements in employee relationships,  lower turnover rates, and better use of vacation time and sick days. Providing human resources training videos for your team will have the following video-based learning benefits:

• Increased learner engagement.
• Stronger information retention.
• Cost-effective training that doesn’t have repeat expenses each time a new employee is hired.
• Ease of access for employees.
• Convenience in training that can occur anytime, anyplace, and with virtually any device that has internet capabilities including a cell phone, table, laptop or computer.
• Greater accessibility of content even among learners with varied learning styles.

Customized human resources training videos help your team to engage in training more effectively and efficiently so that they will actually benefit from the training that you provide. Unlike providing a training manual or requiring that employees sit through a long-winded training session, training videos make training easy and convenient to access, they provide short, focused training that employees can engage in at their own pace, and they are ideal for a variety of different learning styles. 

There’s another major benefit to providing human resources training videos. In addition to  reaching your workers with the information they need, and making it memorable, video is easier to understand for most workers than a written training manual or other styles of training are. In fact, 19% of US adult workers do not read above a “below average” level. So if you expect them to read a manual, you’ll likely be more than just mistaken. Most workers will not read an entire manual, and those who do read it will only recall about 20% of what they read. Offering training via video is significantly more valuable.

Training videos can also make training more enjoyable for the employee. In fact, when asked, 90% of people said they prefer video over other formats of learning new information such as reading or classroom training. By offering your employees human resources training videos, you’re providing training that not only meets their needs, but that meets their expectations too.

Management loves the use of training videos, too. Not only will human resources training videos minimize the amount of time that it takes to train new employees, they reduce the amount of one-on-one time that management or top tenured employees must spend on training. Additionally, HR training videos have the added benefit of easy monitoring by management to see who has finished training and when.
