ONBOARDING

PROGRAM 2021
HUMAN RESOURCE DEPARTMENT
 WHAT IS ONBOARDING?
Onboarding is the process of welcoming and integrating new employees into your company and their
new role.

Notice the stress on the words “process” and “welcoming AND integrating”. These highlighted words
are the key to a successful employee onboarding.

A successful employee onboarding is not an event that takes place on your new employee’s first day at
the office. It is a continuous process that starts at the moment your best candidate accepts your job offer.

If you want to make sure that your new employee will actually show up on their first day, you need to do
your best to keep them engaged until their start date.

If done right, onboarding is the powerful weapon for both for hiring and retaining employees.
“NEW NORMAL”
 3 TYPES

• ONBOARDING begins once a job candidate agrees to accept a job. It involves all the steps needed
to get a new employee successfully deployed and productive.

• OFFBOARDING
is the reverse of onboarding, and it involves separating an employee from a firm.

• REBOARDING
is the process of bringing an employee back to an organization and refamiliarizing them with their role.
