Hiring employees is a huge responsibility. Not only do you have to find
the right people, you also have to make sure you've met your legal
responsibilities. So it helps to have a system.
To help, we’ve pulled together a structured checklist to help you hire that
perfect person for the position, regardless of whether they are your first
employee or one of a larger team. This checklist covers off all stages from
helping to define the position required through to ways to find them and then
help them settle in.
To get started, simply click on either of the download buttons below to open
the new hire checklist in PDF or Microsoft Word format, and save a copy to your
computer if you want to complete or refer to the details at a later date.
