Dear [Manager's Name],

​

As part of our commitment to effective onboarding and employee success, We want to remind you of the importance of conducting a First Week Check-In with any new team members under your supervision. This check-in serves as a valuable opportunity to welcome the new employee, provide the necessary support, clarify expectations, and address any initial concerns they may have. 

​

Your guidance and engagement during this pivotal moment can significantly impact the newcomer's sense of belonging and confidence in their role. Please schedule a meeting with your respective new employee within their first week to facilitate this check-in. During the meeting, take the time to introduce yourself, review key responsibilities, answer questions, and ensure they have the resources needed to excel in their position.

​

Your proactive approach to this check-in will not only aid in their successful integration but also contribute to our overall employee retention and satisfaction goals.

​

Thank you for your attention to this matter. If you require any assistance or guidance in conducting the check-in, please don't hesitate to let us know.

​

Thank You,

​
