Workplace learning creates knowledge to individuals and workers. By doing so, individuals acquire different styles of learning which enable them in understanding in different ways; which include concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization as well as active experimentation. It is observed above that workplace training eliminates some avoidable expenses like for training, saves time s the employees will be reproductive as they learn, will save time as there is to single day spent out of job training for a given system or software, it also helps solidify the culture of the organization as the new employees will be learning from the old employees who have already inculcated the organizational culture within them over a long period of time. It is also worth noting that a performing organization is more likely to retain their employees, particularly in the hospitality industry, than an organization that underperforms on a perennial basis.
