What Is Employee Onboarding?

Employee onboarding is the structured process of integrating new hires into an organization. It goes beyond paperwork; it equips employees with the knowledge, skills, and culture they need to succeed in their roles. A strong onboarding program improves engagement, reduces turnover, and shortens the time it takes for new employees to add value.
