    ON BOARDING

    By Reddy Teja
    "Onboarding" refers to the processes in which new hires are integrated into
    the organization. It includes activities that allow new employees to complete
    an initial new-hire orientation process, as well as learn about the
    organization and its structure, culture, vision, mission and values. For some
    organizations, the onboarding process consists of one or two days of
    activities; for other organizations, this process may involve a series of
    activities spanning one or many months.
    Program Components

    While there are many ways to design an onboarding program, some


    components are integral to the process:
    PREBOARDING
    ORIENTATION
    FOUNDATION BUILDING
    MENTORING AND BUDDY SYSTEMS
    Roles and Responsibilities

    "Onboarding is everyone's responsibility" is an often-used phrase in organizations, but


    without actionable items and accountability, onboarding programs will never succeed. While
    every organization is unique in how the onboarding responsibilities are shared throughout
    the organization, there are some general guidelines for allocating onboarding duties and
    accountability:

    • HR department. Completing and collecting employee paperwork (e.g., forms,


    benefits); reviewing work hours, the history and background of the organization, and the
    organizational chart; touring the facility.
    • Training department. Delivering the onboarding program elements; guiding lectures and
    discussions about organizational culture, goals and objectives; reviewing company videos.
    • Supervisor. Discussing duties and responsibilities, work behaviors, and standards and
    expectations; introducing team members and other members of the organization; touring
    the department; reviewing other roles and relationships within the department.
    • Co-workers. Sharing how the group works as a team, how to get things
    done, how to find/requisition tools and equipment, and where to turn for
    support.
    • Executive team. Helping the employee understand the organization's
    mission, vision, values, strategic goals and objectives; reviewing roles and
    responsibilities at a higher level; describing organizational culture.
    • Mentor/buddy. Introducing team members and others within the
    organization, reviewing informal rules and policies, answering day-to-day
    questions.
    Onboarding Delivery Approaches

    Various components of an onboarding program can be delivered using different approaches and
    methodologies combined to suit the organization and available resources.
    Some employers are using innovative practices, such as games, video, and team-building exercises,
    to get new hires excited about joining the company. They're also working to make sure people can
    hit the ground running with functional workstations and equipment. Some examples of this
    include:

    • Facebook has its "45-minute rule," which means all new employees can begin to work within 45
    minutes of arriving because all of their systems and devices have been set up before they report
    for their first day.
    • Leaders at Suffolk Construction, a national construction firm based in Boston, invite entry-level
    hires to participate in a variety of team-building exercises, including rowing the Charles River.
    • New employees at Bedgear, a Farmingdale, N.Y.-based manufacturer of performance bedding,
    take a walking tour of downtown Manhattan to visit other retailers that sell customized products,
    including Warby Parker and Samsung.
