Onboarding is an Anglicisation of onboarding. It's about educating employees socially and process-wise. HR plays an important role in this and often sets up a standard process for onboarding new employees. This process is defined in an onboarding program.

Onboarding is important as a large number of employees leave within the first 90 days. This is often caused by different expectations, team dynamics and role ambiguity.
