New Employee/Job Change Orientation

Manager Check List

Recent studies show that when a new employee is orientated in their new work environment it reduces turnover, absenteeism, and improves job performance.  Furthermore, new employee orientation aids in retaining and motivating employees.

IT Services/OHR has created a Manager Orientation Checklist to guide the hiring manager in orienting (e.g. preparing the work area, selecting a department mentor, etc.) your new employee into the department.

Vehicle Use Acknowledgment Form

All employees required to drive a University owned vehicle they must fill out a Vehicle Use Form and send it to IT Services/OHR. The process is as follows:

Read the attached acknowledgment form.

  1. Fill out the form in its entirety.
  2. Attach a legible photocopy of the front and back of his or her current driver's license.
  3. Return the form and photocopy of his or her driver's license to your manager.
  4. Manager will submit above documents to IT Services/OHR for processing.

Do not authorize the employee to drive until you have received approval from our office.
