The RELY-PLUS TEST is a pre-employment test that not only measures basic work ethic -- attitudes toward and admissions about punctuality, attendance, and showing initiative on the job, but also includes a probing questionnaire about attitudes toward work ethic that can serve as the basis of a guided follow-up interview.
It’s difficult, without a validated test such as the RELY-PLUS TEST, to find out what attitudes toward punctuality, attendance, and initiative an applicant brings to the job. These are attitudes that are difficult to ask about in an interview without “telegraphing” the answers that will please the interviewer, and yet attitudes toward work ethic often drive behavior on the job. The RELY-PLUS TEST asks every applicant the same questions, in the same way, every time it is administered, and it does so in a work-relevant and non-threatening way.
The RELY-PLUS TEST is a fast and easy way to get an understanding of the attitudes that a new employee brings to the job about basic reliable work behavior. This gives the employer the best opportunity to educate new employees in the behavior standards that are expected on the job.
The RELY-PLUS TEST results reports provide information and tips about attitudes that raise concern about potential on-the-job behavior so that you can explore those attitudes (or self-reported previous behavior) during an interview.
Training new employees in how to demonstrate reliability and dependability on the job is easier with the RELY-PLUS TEST's RELY-ability Training Program. This is a self-administered, highly focused training tool that drives home the message that being reliable and dependable benefits the new employee as much as it benefits the company.
The RELY-Ability Training Program explains to new-hires, in concrete terms, what the person must do to be reliable and dependable, and it obtains a commitment from the new hire to strive to be the best employee he or she can be with a signed Pledge.
