In this episode I discuss the importance of conducting a new hire orientation in our department as a new leader. This checklist will inform new employees of the policies in their new work place and hopefully avoid embarrassing situations. 

Below are a few examples I talk about that should be included in you checklist. 

• Department policies
• Employee dress codes
• Employee code of conduct
• Attendance, day off request and vacation policy
• Training activities
• Co-worker introductions
• 1st day and 1st week follow-up
• Department Goals
