While new workers can complete many onboarding tasks before their start date, two common tasks depend on the worker’s actual start date. Be sure to communicate this to new workers with future-dated hires, so they don’t get tripped up by date-related issues.
Remember to ensure the Hire process is final approved and Onboarding launched before asking your new worker to log in to Workday and begin onboarding. You can find more detailed information on the Recruiting and Onboarding & I-9 documentation pages. Additionally, the Onboarding Workday Process Overview (WPO) can help you and your new employee know which tasks they can perform before their start date.
