New hire onboarding. Made simple.

Choose a role and check off what's done. Add owners or due dates only when you need them.

A planning template only — it doesn't verify legal, credential, or operational eligibility, and an authorized supervisor makes the final call. Keep sensitive personnel details in your approved systems.

Your checklist adjusts automatically.
Optional: checklist label and start date

Use role or department labels rather than employee names. Don't enter medical details, ID numbers, or background-check results.

Put your onboarding plan into practice

Less chasing. A clearer path from new hire to ready.

Use this checklist to plan the work. VAIRKKO helps your team organize onboarding, assign responsibility, and see what still needs attention.

01

Build a repeatable process

Create onboarding templates for different roles. Organize tasks, set due dates, and assign responsible people so each new hire starts with a clear plan.

Fewer missed steps and less repeated setup.

02

See where each hire stands

Use onboarding dashboards and reports to review progress and spot outstanding tasks without chasing status updates.

Managers know exactly where to follow up.

03

Keep paperwork moving

Send documents for electronic completion and signature. Request policy acknowledgments, build custom forms with approval routing, and see what is pending or signed.

No more chasing paper forms.

04

Connect training and qualifications

Assign orientation courses and required learning, track credentials, and monitor renewal dates alongside onboarding.

Readiness that lasts beyond the first week.

05

Get them on the schedule, ready to work

Add the new hire to schedules once required qualifications are in place. Scheduling checks roles and certifications before shifts are assigned or picked up, and employees see their schedule, request time off and pick up shifts in the mobile app.

The right people on every shift from day one.

06

Clock in and get paid correctly

Set up timekeeping on day one so punches line up with scheduled shifts and timecards are ready for review and payroll export.

An accurate first paycheck.
