NEW EMPLOYEE INDUCTION CHECKLIST
Getting a new employee started, comfortable and empowered and ensuring you have legal
issues covered is getting more and more complicated.
Bellow is a handy checklist to get your new employees “up to speed” as quickly as possible.
Work through this form with your new employee and have them sign it, or give it to your
manager or supervisor to work through with the new employee and have both of them sign it.
While it’s not whole induction story, (the employee might need on the job training or safety
training as well) it is a handy defensive tool if anything goes wrong later.
Legal
Does the employee have a “letter of offer” which states starting wage,
review periods, hours per week and legal basis of employment?
Does this meet the new national employment standards? □
Has the employee received and filled in a Tax Form and has this been sent? □
Has the employee been given the “ten items list” national employment
standards under the Fair Work Act? □

their bank account details, home address and emergency contacts? □

Has the employee been through this induction list? □
Does the employee clearly understand that they have a
responsibility, along with you, to implement OHS? □
