New Employee Orientation Template: Design and Template Tips

When creating a new employee orientation, there are many areas to consider from what important materials employees need to see before starting the new job through to policy acknowledgements, understanding safety content, safety procedures and check list items relating to their role and new workplace. To make it easier designing your new employee orientation, we've created the below template to use.

Before they start their role: materials to collect

When a new employee is about to join an organisation, there's a number of common materials you might collect from them:

Emergency contact information

Evidence of training

Qualifications and certifications

Payroll details

Contact information

Medical information that could affect the job

Typically, these areas might be captured on the first day of the new employee starting work but with an online orientation you could collect everything online and before they start work.

Once you have interviewed the candidate, you could even get them to do the orientation after the interview as part of qualifying whether the employee has the right materials and acknowledges the content and topics important for working at your workplace.

Common Topics for an Employee Orientation

The most common workplace topics to include range from a mix of safety and HR based materials. These ensure that workers understand what is important to work safe, stay safe, report safety issues and observations and understand and acknowledge important workplace topics and procedures.
