Day one starts before day one.

The laptop is ordered, the badge is requested, the handbook is signed, and everyone can see what is left — before the new hire walks in.

The hire signs in before they start.

A pre-start hire gets a dedicated getting-started page rather than a dashboard they cannot use yet. They confirm their own details and supply an emergency contact, so the record is right before day one instead of after it.

First-day instructions travel on the workflow itself, so what they read is what HR actually wrote for this hire.

  • Preboarding data collection the hire completes themselves
  • Emergency contact visible only to the person, their supervisor and HR
  • Two onboarding templates ship: general new hire, and a program-specific variant

Everyone's part of a new hire, on one checklist.

One checklist routes its steps to the hire, their supervisor, HR, IT and the security office, each step with an owner and a due date, and nothing sitting in somebody's inbox where no one else can see it.

The workflow issues the documents automatically: handbook, NDA, offer letter, timekeeping policy, equipment agreement and remote-work agreement. Equipment and access provisioning — laptop, badge, system accounts — are steps on the same list.

  • Group queues for HR, IT, security, payroll, accounting and compliance
  • Each task carries its own history and comments
  • A matching offboarding workflow: account disabled, equipment returned, access revoked, final documents issued
