Induction
The process of introducing a new employee to their role, team and organisation in their first days and weeks.
Induction is the structured welcome given to a new starter, covering their role, the team, key policies, systems and the organisation's culture. It is the practical front end of onboarding.
A good induction helps people feel welcome, become productive sooner and understand what is expected of them, which improves early engagement and retention.
Combining essential compliance and health-and-safety information with a genuine sense of belonging makes the first days count, and an HRIS can automate the checklist.
