What Is Employee Onboarding Software?

Employee onboarding software provides a central online location for employers to communicate with new hires, assign onboarding tasks, and introduce them to your business. Employees can use the HR onboarding software to complete required paperwork and training, and access other information related to the company and their new position. HR teams and supervisors can view and track the progress of new team members as they complete various aspects of the onboarding process.

Online Employee Onboarding Software Saves Time and Helps Eliminate Mistakes

Given the time and resources it takes to recruit and hire, a new employee's first impression is crucial. Any misstep in the onboarding process can dampen the new hire's experience, leading to low morale and engagement as well as decreased productivity. Effective onboarding solutions streamline many tasks for new employees, help keep lines of communication open, and convey that your business values the new hire's time.

Tools to Enhance Hiring and Onboarding  

Your employees need to know the policies of the workplace, the safety rules they must follow, and much more — all of which can be accessed within the employee onboarding portal.
