When an employer looks at the onboarding process, cost savings, compliance and efficiency are all areas of top concern. However, the experience of the new hire is another very important aspect of this initial phase of employment. Emerald Software Group has developed the concept of Easy Mondays as a way of focusing on how a new employee's first day at work is affected by the implementation of an effective, intuitive onboarding system.
Making a good initial impression is critical for successful acculturation. Having a stress-free way to handle the transactional side of onboarding (completing forms, etc) eases anxiety and reduces distractions. First Mondays can be difficult for everyone. Departments have to collaborate effectively to create a smooth transition for each new hire. Lack of communication can cause disruption in the onboarding process and leave employees without the ability to be productive on their first day.
Here is an overview of the various departments that must come together to create a seamless onboarding process using a typical approach:
Human Resources
Depending on the size of an organization's kroger expresspay com HR department, one person may handle all aspects of transactional onboarding. Or, there may be half a dozen different people involved. For example, an entry level HR employee may be responsible for copying forms and putting together the new hire packet. A specialist could be tasked with explaining the company's benefits plan.
A mid-level staff member may need to be on hand to answer any questions about corporate policies. The hiring manager would (hopefully) inspect each form including I9s, W4s, and all policy acknowledgments to ensure these are correctly completed and signed.
