Workplace onboarding is the part of new-starter onboarding that deals with the physical and digital workplace: building access, desk and room booking, parking, the office app, and knowing where things and people are.
It is a first-impressions moment with outsized effect. A new starter whose badge works, whose desk is booked next to their team and whose app already signs them in via SSO gets the message that the organisation runs well. The alternative message also lands.
