The Induction feature allows you to upload induction material as either a YouTube video, PDF, Doc, and/or Docx file. You can then set what employees will receive this content.

The feature also allows you to edit the information, re-assign the material to another user, and delete the data. Lastly, this feature also lets your employees acknowledge the induction content you uploaded.

Important

The induction content document, Fixed Term Contract Information Statement, has been updated to reflect the most recent legislation as of the 1st of November 2024. This ensures that users of Employment Hero are in compliance with the latest legal requirements. The feature will also prompt employees to acknowledge the document every six months to maintain ongoing compliance.

If you ‌replace induction content with a newer version, then you will permanently lose any supporting documents and employee acknowledgements attached to the previous version. Also, you can only report on induction content marked as required via the Induction Content report. It is because we do not ask employees to acknowledge non-mandatory induction content.
