摘要：Purpose – Employee Orientation is one of the most imperious functions of human resource management. Therefore, it is essential to determine the functional effectiveness, which is rarely addressed in the existing literature. Therefore, this paper had endeavored to replete the research gap by measuring the functional effectiveness of the Employee Orientation Program (EOP) of private banks of Bangladesh. Aim – This study's key objective is to measure the effectiveness of different functional issues of EOP conducted for the new bankers of Bangladeshi private commercial banks. Methodology – Hypothesis testing was used to measure the effectiveness of the functional issues of EOP. Thirty hypotheses developed from the functional issues of EOP were analyzed using one-sample "T-test." A questionnaire survey was conducted among 125 young bankers randomly selected from 20 local private commercial banks located in Chattogram Division. Findings – Eighteen null hypotheses out of thirty were found rejected. The study discovered that sample banks were found efficient in ensuring most of the functional issues of the learning environment aspect of EOP. However, they were partially efficient in attaining the event management aspects. Limitation of the Study – The discovery of the real facts of EOP may be hindered as the survey was conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic. Practical implication – The banks' top management was suggested to be more sincere in some issues like workstation arrangement, providing induction booklets, training on customs &etiquettes, and organizing a reception party for the inductees. Hence, the feeling of team-spirit should be generated among the new hires through teambuilding exercises during EOP. Originality/value – This paper is first of a kind in the banking sector of Bangladesh. The outcome of this research may contribute to enrich the body of knowledge of human resource management.
