Upon hiring a new employee, the first impression of how the person is treated is a determining factor as to how well they will succeed. Therefore, it is critical for organizations to have a comprehensive on boarding program. This allows for a more engaged employee who feels a connection to the organization. It also provides for the employee to make an immediate contribution while significantly reducing the acclimation time.

On Boarding

• Create a New Employee E-mail Announcement, introducing them to the team.
• Provide company manual and all required paper information to be completed for HR benefits and payroll purposes.
• Welcome employee. Introduce and orient to work space including computer setup and email.
•  Introduce personally to co workers.
•  Pre arrange “First Day Lunch” with manager or mentor.
•  Give employee instructions on how to use software and computer systems.
• Set up schedule for job training.
• Set expectations and goals to succeed at the position.
