Induction: New Employees

6 – Post-Award Stage

Induction: New Employees

You may wish to organise an induction to your team, department, or office space, to ensure your new starter feels welcomed and is provided with adequate information about the ongoing support mechanisms that will be provided. Give them a chance to ask any other queries they have about their new role.

Inductions can be a great way for the new starters to meet each other so they can share advice they have each received and have a peer to experience ‘being new’ with.

Try to recall the aspects of your institution which were least familiar to you when you started your role or ask people who have started more recently than you for their advice.

As always, ensure you have sought out requests for accommodations from those attending the induction, and that your induction materials meet the visual accessibility and inclusive language guidance shared earlier.
