New starters: an onboarding checklist for business owners

As a growing business, you might be in the recruitment process at the moment, or potentially taken on new staff already. The key to smooth recruitment is in the onboarding process – the better the onboarding, the better a new starter will get used to their job role, understand how the company functions and feel part of the team sooner.

But it isn’t just the employee who will benefit from a good onboarding process. It’s useful for you as an employer, as it’ll ensure better job performance, increase efficiency and improve employee engagement and retention – thus creating a happier, healthier workplace.

There are quite a few things you need to do before bringing someone onboard – so we’ve put together a comprehensive list of all things Health & Safety and HR so you can make sure nothing gets left out.
