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 the platform 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 I add induction content for everyone and make it required, will it be required for all current employees or just new employees?
Hi Brodyn Kemish! If you toggle required content for any induction content to Yes, all employees, including all current employees, will be notified that new induction material is available, and they will need to acknowledge the content.
When making the required on a yearly basis, can the date be set for the renewal date?
Can this date be selected in advance or only ever on the date of upload?
Hi Matthew Hay, thanks for your question. For now, the yearly date can only be the same as the upload date. Whilst setting a different renewal date is not a current functionality, this is definitely something that is on our radar for the future. I have also let the team know this is something your organisation would love to see introduced. Thank you!
How do I see if an employee has acknowledged the content?
Hi Lily Atkinson-Sheppard, thank you for your comment.
You can view employee content acknowledgment using the Policies and Induction Reports function - click here for more information.
How many documents can be saved to Induction Contents page and can they be grouped by departments for example?
Hi Kelsey Xu, thanks for your message. I'm unsure about your question but I have raised a ticket with our support team on your behalf. They will get in contact shortly and will be able to help. Thank you.
Hi, I have been asked to acknowledge Au Fair Work Information Statement but all I can do is download the pdf document. There is no way to acknowledge. There is no button. Can you assist?
