The new employee onboarding checklist template in Teamwork gives you a clear, repeatable way to welcome every new hire. Instead of rebuilding checklists for each start date, you track tasks, owners, and due dates in one shared project so onboarding feels organised and consistent.
You capture everything from paperwork and system access through to role specific training. HR and people teams see what is complete and what is still pending for each new hire, while managers know exactly how to support someone through their first weeks.
Because the checklist lives in Teamwork, onboarding stays connected to wider projects. You keep notes, documents, and training tasks in the same place, which helps new employees ramp up faster and start contributing with confidence.
What does the new employee onboarding checklist template include in Teamwork?
The new employee onboarding checklist template includes structured task lists for key onboarding stages, such as pre start setup, first day, and first weeks. Each task has a clear owner, due date, and status so you always know who is responsible for the next step.
You add links, documents, and notes directly to tasks, which keeps contracts, policies, and training resources close to where work happens. This turns the checklist into a live plan instead of a static document that quickly goes out of date.
Who is the new employee onboarding checklist designed for?
The template is designed for HR managers, onboarding specialists, and people teams who coordinate new hire experiences. It also supports hiring managers who need a simple way to track what they owe each new team member.
By using one shared structure, everyone involved in onboarding has the same view of progress. That reduces missed steps, duplication, and confusion about who should contact the new starter and when.
How does this template help me onboard new hires consistently?
The template helps you onboard new hires consistently by standardising the steps every employee goes through. You define required tasks once, then reuse them for each new joiner so nothing important depends on memory.
You can add role or location specific tasks as needed, while still keeping a core set of steps for all hires. Over time, you refine the checklist based on feedback so your onboarding process improves with each cohort.
How do I coordinate onboarding tasks across teams with this template?
You coordinate onboarding tasks across teams by assigning work to HR, IT, facilities, and managers within the same project. Each group sees their tasks in a personalised view filtered by owner or department.
Status updates and comments stay inside tasks, which avoids scattered email threads. When a task such as laptop setup is complete, the next person in the chain sees that update and can move forward without waiting for a separate message.
