Compliance&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This refers to the endless amount of tasks that must be completed at the start of the onboarding process to comply with legislation and company obligations. These include jobs such as:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Filling out paperwork like contracts, tax forms, and declarations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Familiarization with company values and policy, which is incredibly important as it gives employees an opportunity to internalize these values and align them with their own<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Initial training and courses on anti-harassment, data security, and other essential topics<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Badging process<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Relevant background checks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Creating logins for company systems and software<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Providing the required equipment such as laptops, stationery, and lanyards<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>While this never-ending barrage of busywork may seem like a nuisance at times, it\u2019s a crucial element of the onboarding process that ensures businesses meet legal and ethical requirements. It also helps to set a strong foundation for the employee, giving them something to refer back to as they progress throughout their career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, this process can be incredibly time-consuming and take up much of the first week of a new starter\u2019s employment. However, onboarding automation tools are&nbsp; able to digitize the entire experience, turning this administrative burden into an efficient and manageable workflow.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/b4bUPVx2QtzAkfXLbrXTWbX2oSN7BV4Zgh8kVe-plVkTk174ZhEeJ3zFHwjjlGycT5R00C5Zd5cLy7joWFEbVzvhJb_VVkXcEWAvH48Dg2-Ps1u2bkHCCyG3T-OCYs1pliavTkU4z6ixtRwpCmdvaS4\" alt=\"The numerous aspects of the onboarding process including, set up accounts, create logins, employee training, paperwork, and check-in plan. \" title=\"Onboarding checklist\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fd341ezm4iqaae0.cloudfront.net%2Fassets%2F2018%2F07%2F11172600%2FOnboarding_Checklist02-1024x585.jpg&amp;tbnid=bHioUDA3uLFNrM&amp;vet=12ahUKEwjY1rnStc-AAxU9mycCHRepDScQMygEegUIARD3AQ..i&amp;imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.indeed.com%2Fhire%2Fc%2Finfo%2Fnew-hire-onboarding-checklist&amp;docid=4UzfEsQqNoHN9M&amp;w=1024&amp;h=585&amp;q=new%20hire%20onboarding%20checklist&amp;client=safari&amp;ved=2ahUKEwjY1rnStc-AAxU9mycCHRepDScQMygEegUIARD3AQ\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"2-clarification\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">2.

Unfortunately, this is often not the case.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, it is imperative to reinforce the company&#8217;s expectations for an employee in their new role. There are multiple ways that this can be done, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Providing a thorough and detailed job description&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Creating a high-quality employee handbook<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Showcasing these points in an informative welcome presentation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Creating performance milestones and checklists<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Outlining the different metrics used to monitor performance&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Setting reasonable targets for a specified period of time<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Providing regular check-ins to discuss performance and expectations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>An effective employee onboarding tool will allow users to provide their team members with this information in an easily digestible and obtainable manner through an online resource portal. This will also save you time as an employer, since you won\u2019t have to go through the same information over and over again. It\u2019s also easier to refer back to these resources, rather than try and remember everything discussed in a face-to-face conversation<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/wNYxc_1-D2PJX2-VP1_I0e-6EJYijw7IunCLw5FaCmFeugHRXPhMjfvr4etEzz7EcpahdhUWJ74NcClZbbF2E47z7uQmSgDmYNIFPHFkVZkj2eXUul9-BfPiFvh76Z4fSu9d61HK9rbIk6oqb24n5e4\" alt=\"A list of 21 employee performance metrics, which include: number of sales, absentee rate, overtime, human capital ROI, profit per FTE, and number of phone calls. \" title=\"Metrics\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aihr.com\/blog\/employee-performance-metrics\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"3-culture\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.

To do this, employers should encourage new hires to attend social events and team-building exercises to become involved in the organization\u2019s culture from day one. These events should be varied and interesting, not falling for the trap of \u2018after-work drinks\u2019 as many seem to do.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think about booking event days, escape rooms, or nice meals to give everyone a chance to get to know each other, work together, and share some time away from their desks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With more and more businesses opting to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/home-and-office\/work-life\/hybrid-and-remote-work-the-state-of-play-in-2023\/#:~:text=Gartner%20estimates%20that%20by%20the,of%20the%20workforce%20in%202023.\">utilize remote work options<\/a>, developing an effective community is becoming increasingly difficult.
