Guide to Onboarding - Supervisor
|
Congratulations on hiring your
new employee!
As a supervisor to a new
employee, it is your privilege
to help welcome your new hire to
the University of Wisconsin-La
Crosse.
You will play a
particularly active, very
important, role in onboarding.
Onboarding is a process
that begins prior to an
employee’s start date and
extends well into their first
year of employment.
Most new
employees come to UW-L full of
expectation and enthusiasm.
This fresh eagerness can
either be nurtured or defeated
depending on the first few days
and weeks at the University.
It is a time when new
employees learn and develop
perceptions about the
University, other employees,
their job, responsibilities, and
their supervisors. Do you
remember your first days as a
new employee?
It was probably an
exciting, yet somewhat hectic,
time.
With your assistance, and
that of the Human Resources
Office, your new employee will
be able to succeed in their new
position sooner and feel a
closer connection to UW-L and
the La Crosse area. Below is a
checklist to assist you in your
preparations for the arrival of
a new employee.
Please feel free to add
or remove activities based on
your department/unit’s needs.
Supervisors should work
with their department/unit
administrative support staff so
as to not duplicate efforts.
