Onboarding
Scope
Definition
Onboarding takes a new employee from a signed offer to working on their own in their role, the same way in every center.
Applicable to
- Center Manager, Floor Manager and trainers
- Every new employee, every role, every center
Why it matters
Sk why
- People stay. A clear start makes new staff confident.
- Clients feel it. New staff keep the Leor experience the same.

Never
Sk rule
- Start a new employee without a signed contract.
- Let a new employee work alone with clients before the practical assessment is passed.

Good practice
Sk tips
- Make the role clear. Show what good work looks like with real examples, not only the JD.
- Build confidence step by step. Easy tasks first, then harder ones. Praise what goes well and correct one thing at a time.
- Help them belong. Introduce them by name to everyone, and include them in the huddle and team lunch from day one. A short buddy check-in every day in week one.
- Make questions welcome. Tell them that asking is expected, and who to ask for what.
- Show the real job. Talk openly about busy days, difficult clients and long hours on their feet, so nothing comes as a surprise.
