Increase 30-Day Retention
Employee turnover frequently happens in the first 30 days because employees don’t feel welcomed, informed and supported. Keeping in touch with them over this crucial period can make or break their experience, and thus their decision to stay or leave.
How you might currently be doing this
- A formal review at the end of the first month
- Occasional check-ins over the first week or two
- You might not be doing this at all and instead leave employees alone once they’re done onboarding
Why Use Team Engine Instead
Automation: Once the communication workflow is set up in Team Engine, onboarding messages will start sending automatically over time for each new hire.
Consistency: You’ll never fall behind or forget to send a time-sensitive message again.
Accessibility: Because employees receive messages on their cell phone via text (instead of email or an app) you can rest assured that every employee will get every message every time.
How you can use Team Engine to do this
With Team Engine, you can create a customized communication workflow that automatically checks in with new hires over the course of their first 30, 60 or 90 days on things like:
- How their first paycheck will arrive and how to access pay stubs
- Periodically ask for feedback on their experience
- How to log in to the company intranet
- When they’re eligible for benefits and how to get them
- To ask for employee referrals
You can even use Team Engine to automatically send reminders to managers to check in with their new hires and things to discuss (e.g. company values, job expectations, etc.).
