Employee Training and Professional Development
To keep workers safe, maintain a high-level of quality, and ensure compliance, Janco offers a number of opportunities for employee training.
Before a new employee begins, they are given ISO training to ensure they adhere to the standards and practices these certifications require. This includes:
- Defining the knowledge and skills needed to do their job.
- Providing training or other learning activities that will develop the knowledge and skills they need.
- Testing employees on this knowledge and their skills to prove whether the training was effective.

In addition to new hire training, Janco also offers cross training and professional development for employees who want the opportunity to learn new roles and cover other jobs in the event of absences. This training creates opportunities for taking on additional responsibilities, which Janco rewards with merit salary increases.
