Onboarding

Onboarding is the structured process of welcoming and preparing a new employee to succeed in their role. For financial institutions, this often includes policy reviews, system setup, training, and cross-department coordination.

By using your intranet to manage onboarding, you can automate these steps, reduce missed tasks, and deliver a consistent experience - whether it's for a new branch hire or a back-office team member.

Why It Matters

Inconsistent onboarding creates frustration, delays, and even risk. A centralized approach ensures accountability and helps new staff feel supported from day one.

Key Elements of Intranet-Based Onboarding

  • Pre-set task checklists by role or department
  • Automatic routing to HR, IT, and supervisors
  • Digital policy acknowledgments
  • Access to training resources and documentation
  • System access and equipment provisioning tasks
