A first-day employee checklist equips managers with steps to guide new hires on their very first day at work. A good checklist ensures compliance with employment laws and prepares new employees with everything they need for a successful start with your business.

Without a first-day employee checklist, your business risks an inefficient process, confusion, and immediate disengagement on the part of the employee. Nearly one in three new hires quit their job in the first 90 days, according to the Job Seeker Nation Report. You can protect your business from this kind of turnover with a proven HR onboarding process.
