We find that many businesses don’t have a formal induction and onboarding programme in place, which can be problematic for the integration of a new employee into the organisation.

Onboarding is one of the most important aspects of HR to get right in your business. You put a lot of time and effort selling your business and the role to new talent. So, it is essential that your new employees get a positive experience from the time the offer goes out to them, to the day they start and into the first few weeks.

Starting at a new job is exciting as well as challenging, and it is important that you offer as much support to all new hires starting in your business. Part of that experience is getting simple things ready on the first day like their email address, phone, computer and any tools of trade ready for when they arrive.
