9.6. On-boarding/ Staff induction

The onboarding process starts from when you first offer the new employee the job.

The process is about:

• familiarising the employee with your team and business culture
• helping them understand their role and what is required of them
• helping them fit in socially and professionally.
  

Onboarding new employees will ensure they feel welcome and have everything they need to start their first day with confidence.

More information, including induction checklists, can be found Staff onboarding and inductions.
