Set Up New Hires for Success
Research shows that successful onboarding reduces employee turnover, increases productivity, and boosts morale. Yet, surprisingly, many employers offer little to no formalized orientation process.
Investing in a well-planned employee orientation experience helps support positive working relationships—and your bottom line. Depending on your business, onboarding may take an hour or last for several days.

Introductions
Introduce your company, its culture, values, vision and policies
Job Specifics
Plan a departmental or job-specific orientation when the employee actually starts work
In person vs. Virtual Onboarding
Decide how best to deliver your onboarding program, before the new hire comes into your workplace
