New Employee Orientation Checklist

During the First - Six Months

 

Orientation does not end after the first month of employment at Southeast. To achieve orientation success, managers must utilize strategies that focus on the long-term assimilation of an employee. One of the best ways to accomplish this goal is to develop a follow-up plan to see how well he/she is managing on the job. Here are a few tips to assist you in continuing a successful orientation.

 

Supervisor's Role

 

 
    Celebrate the completion of the probationary period
 
    Encourage feedback from the employee
 
    Send employee to New Employee Orientation
 
    Continue to clarify roles, responsibilities and expectations as needed and
    provide ongoing coaching and feedback.
 
    Schedule weekly/monthly update meetings as needed
 
 
    Conduct a probationary review meeting at the six-month period and provide
               detailed feedback to employee on his/her performance. Identify any areas that
               require further development or remediation. Click here for additional information
