What is it about?
How best to integrate new team members into the company?
Why is it important?
➡️ The onboarding phase is crucial to integrating new employees. The goal is to ensure that new team members feel welcome, embrace the company culture, and quickly become autonomous in their tasks.
➡️ The challenge is to create an efficient process that saves time while fostering engagement and a sense of belonging to the team.
Three actions to take right now
1️⃣ Create a formal process for onboarding new employees
- Decide when the integration of a new recruit begins (From first contact with our recruitment team? Upon signing the employment contract? Upon the new employee's arrival?)
- Anticipate actions to be taken before the new hires arrive
- Plan activities for their first days
- Provide follow-up support
2️⃣ Create an Employee Handbook
Develop a manual that includes everything a new employee might need to know: the company's values and objectives, details about the team, information about compensation, decision-making processes, leave policies, etc.
3️⃣ Don't overlook a new employee’s first day in the company!
Advice from the article mentioned below:
"The first day is your chance to be who you said you were in the hiring process."
"Make sure their office is set up and they have all the tools they need."
