New Employee Orientation

A new employee orientation ensures that workers are aware of the employer’s rules and expectations for safety and health.  The amount of information that an employee will be able to retain is limited. With this in mind, this segment of the safety orientation covers general information that is not critical to their job.

New workers are an asset, bringing fresh eyes and new ideas to a workplace. However, new workers are especially vulnerable to workplace injury and illness due to lack of experience and ability to recognize hazards.

It will help you become familiar with the workplace and the hazards to which you or others may be exposed. An orientation ensures that workers are aware of the employer’s rules and expectations for safety and health.
