With web-based onboarding—which automates that process—experts say employers can drive productivity and acclimate employees better into their organizations.
According to Enwisen, web-based onboarding’s popularity has grown increasingly over the years as more
employers seek to streamline the hiring process, allowing companies to:
• Track and monitor new hires in the onboarding process and make new employees feel more welcome
and excited about beginning their new jobs.
• Enable firms to go paperless with all forms while eliminating data entry and improving accuracy.
• Take new hires through an online tour—with personalized content, streaming videos and more.
• Automate provisioning for uniforms, parking passes, computers, e-mail addresses, security badges and
the like.
• Help new hires evaluate and select health and insurance and other benefit plan choices, which can be
processed on the appropriate date after employment begins.
• Guarantee that policies and compliance requirements are approved and recorded electronically.
