What onboarding means here

Onboarding is everything between accepting an offer and becoming a fully productive team member — completing registration and reference checks, induction, mandatory training, orientation to policies and systems, and structured early supervision in a high-responsibility setting.

Onboarding steps

• Confirm registration, qualifications, references and right-to-work documents.
• Run general and role-specific induction.
• Complete mandatory training before independent practice where required.
• Orient new starters to policies, systems and the team.
• Provide structured supervision and check-ins through the early period.

Best practices

• Complete verification and checks before the first shift.
• Sequence mandatory training so staff are ready for their duties.
• Pair new starters with an experienced colleague or preceptor.
• Set clear early expectations and feedback points.
• Keep onboarding records and documents organised and accessible.

Common mistakes

• Letting new staff start before checks and training are complete.
• A generic induction that misses role-specific safety and systems.
• No supervision or support in the first weeks.
• Poorly organised documentation that delays readiness.
