In this webinar we will learn the reasons onboarding is important today. We will learn that the terms orientation and onboarding are not interchangeable. We will learn that orientation is in reality just one step in the onboarding process. We will learn that the onboarding process begins before the hire is made.
Statistics show that half of all hourly employees leave the job within
four months of hire and half of all salaried employees leave their jobs
within 18 months. This turnover is expensive. Much of this turnover can
be prevented by a proper onboarding process. The Orientation, the
process of making someone an employee, is no longer sufficient. When so
much of a company's success is dependent on the intellectual property
that employees produce it is critical to make sure that the employee is
fitting in and succeeding.
This is what a successful onboarding process accomplishes. Those
companies that do not do this successfully suffer lower productivity,
potential loss of customers, and of course the eventual loss of the
employee and the resultant replacement costs.
