Frequently asked questions

What should I include in a new employee induction checklist?

A comprehensive induction checklist should include pre-arrival preparations, administrative requirements, company introduction, facilities tour, IT setup, role-specific training, health and safety briefings, team introductions, and scheduled follow-up meetings. Customize sections based on your organization’s size and culture while maintaining these essential components.

How long should the new employee induction process last?

An effective induction process typically spans 90 days, not just the first day or week. Begin with intensive orientation during week one, then transition to role-specific training and integration activities that gradually decrease in frequency but maintain regular check-ins throughout the first three months to ensure proper adaptation and address any concerns.

Who should be responsible for implementing the new employee induction checklist?

Responsibility for the induction checklist should be shared between HR (for administrative and company-wide elements) and the direct supervisor (for role-specific training and team integration). Designate a primary coordinator to oversee the entire process, ensuring all stakeholders complete their assigned tasks and nothing falls through the cracks.
