Set up your organisations onboarding checklists | HR Web Platform

Overview

An onboarding checklist is a way for hiring managers to organise the steps involved in guiding new hires through their first days and months at a company. The checklist makes sure that each critical stage of the new hire onboarding process is complete and provides a starting point for your procedures related to hiring a new employee.

The Onboarding Checklist feature allows an admin to create a group of tasks that they can activate when they onboard an employee, with the ability to specify which team will receive these tasks. This feature also allows you to edit, clone, and delete individual onboarding tasks and to delete any previously created onboarding checklists.

Important

Checklists by location and/or a specific employee is not possible; only via teams is currently possible.
