Onboarding Checklist for Managers
An onboarding checklist for managers usually contains a good deal that no manager can action, and the result is that the whole list gets treated as somebody else’s job.
Give the manager only what belongs to them. Introducing the person to the team. Explaining what the role actually involves this quarter, which is rarely what the position description says. Setting the first few weeks of work. Delivering the local safety induction, meaning the hazards on this site, not the generic module. Supervising more closely than usual while the person is new. Holding a conversation at the end of the first week and again at a month.
Leave statements, records, payroll and policy issue with HR.
Supervision is the item with a duty attached, and it is the one most often assumed rather than planned.
Safe Work Australia covers supervision duties. This is general information rather than legal advice, and obligations vary by state and territory.
