Although many organizations and Human Resource Professionals overlook the importance of onboarding new employees, this Human Resource Management process is extremely important for transitioning employees and is a moral and ethical duty owed to those employees. This paper identifies ten classic onboarding errors and suggests solutions to those ethical missteps. By correcting these errors, organizations can improve the transition of their new employees, build trust and commitment, reduce employee stress, and increase new employee productivity.
