    • Onboarding, also known as organizational socialization, is management jargon first created in the 1970s that refers to the mechanism through which new employees acquire the necessary knowledge, skills, and behaviors in order to become effective organizational members and insiders.[1] In the United States, for example, up to 25% of workers are organizational newcomers engaged in an onboarding process. [2] Tactics used in this process include formal meetings, lectures, videos, printed materials, or computer-based orientations that outline the operations and culture of the organization that the employee is entering into. This process is known in other parts of the world as an 'induction' or training. Studies have documented that socialization techniques such as onboarding lead to positive outcomes for new employees. These include higher job satisfaction, better job performance, greater organizational commitment, and reduction in occupational stress and intent to quit.[3] [4]

    • QUOTE: The onboarding process is the primary responsibility of hiring supervisor. The hiring supervisor must be proactive and engaged in facilitating the employee’s successful integration into the organization from start to finish. Prior to arrival of the new employee and throughout the first year, the supervisor’s responsibility is to:
      • Establish regular communication with the new employee.
      • Use supporting tools and resources, such as the Onboarding Checklist to encourage a smooth transition.
      • Provide a department-specific comprehensive training plan to ensure proficiency in job tasks and organizational norms.
      • ​Provide clear expectations, direction, coaching, and performance feedback.
      • Connect the new employee with key information, resources, and people within the organization.
