When an employee joins an organization, the first few days form a lasting impression. This plays an important part in his performance and stay with the company. It is also a key factor in job satisfaction, happiness, motivation, and intra-office interactions. High worker loyalty and retention is also reflected in the company’s bottom line and morale, as well as responsiveness and situational performance. It is therefore an important responsibility of the management to provide a welcoming experience to new recruits, as well as introduce them to the office culture and practices in an efficient and appropriate manner.

It is important to make an employee feel like part of a workforce and establishing a personal connection of the employee with the organization. This can be done by encouraging interactions and introductions, as well as providing a comprehensive picture of his responsibilities and contributions within the framework of the company. Assigning a mentor or overseer can be an effective way to begin introductions, as well as encouraging intra-office interactions. This also helps the employee learn the ropes quickly and perform efficiently, alongside getting acquainted with office culture, atmosphere, and practices.

Creating awareness of this fact among the current employee workforce is a responsibility that falls to the management. It is the most pertinent to the freshman employee’s prospective coworkers and immediate manager. Another important responsibility of the employee’s immediate environment is periodic and close evaluation of his skills and performance in the early days of his employment. Any outstanding issues or frictions that the new entry may cause need to be resolved quickly and efficiently, to ensure best integration of the employee within the workplace while keeping workforce morale consistent.

New employees mandate a specific and special amount of attention in the early days, and this responsibility falls to the management. This ensures smooth transitions, and translates to high worker satisfaction and best efficiency.
