Webhire Unveils New Solution For Streamlining Employee Onboarding
Webhire onboarding helps companies reduce initial time to productivity and improve employee retention.
Lexington, MA (PRWEB) October 20, 2005
Webhire, Inc., a leader in talent management solutions, today announced Webhire Onboarding, a new solution designed to help employers improve the initial onboarding process for new employees. Webhire Onboarding provides Webhire customers with a flexible set of tools for initiating and tracking the tasks associated with bringing new hires into an organization, including provisioning, forms management and culturalization. The solution can also be used to offboard employees when separating from the company.
Webhire Onboarding helps facilitate an employee’s transition into an organization by providing employers a full set of tools for outlining, initiating and tracking the strategic initiatives involved in onboarding. Some of the activities that comprise the onboarding process include the communication, collaboration and tracking of internal and external activities required to prepare for a new hire’s first day. Additionally, onboarding calls for the delivery, completion and tracking of new hire documents and information pre - and post-start date, and the delivery of company, position and division or department specific information to the new hire.
“A smooth onboarding process helps improve employee retention, but it also reduces employer costs and ensures compliance with regulatory employment requirements,” said Allan Schweyer, Executive Director of the Human Capital Institute. “Webhire has gone beyond traditional products, offering a combination of features that provide wide functionality. Webhire Onboarding integrates provisioning tools with forms management and culturalization tools that will help employers complete the important tasks involved with onboarding."
Webhire Onboarding is the latest in a series of products and services designed to help employers strategically manage the entire employment life cycle; from initial attraction through strategic sourcing and selection techniques, to delivering effective hires based on a positive, meaningful candidate relationship, continuing through employee retention. Webhire Onboarding extends the capabilities of Webhire Recruiter, Webhire’s end-to-end talent management solution. Beyond the benefits of increased employee productivity and engagement, Webhire Onboarding helps companies reduce tactical expenses such as paper forms, physical storage requirements, manual data entry errors, and administrative staffing costs.
“Webhire has responded to the needs of the market by delivering a flexible, comprehensive onboarding solution,” said Susanne Bowen, Chairman and CEO of Webhire. “The first few days at a new job are critical in confirming an employee’s decision to join a new company and setting in motion positive employee engagement which directly improves their time to productivity. When employees are highly engaged, companies are more likely to retain them. Webhire Onboarding is an important milestone in our commitment to help customers attract, hire and retain the right talent.”
