DETAILS:
Onboarding new hires in multiple states using paper processes is a veritable nightmare for human resource departments. Between evolving compliance needs, state-specific regulations, and keeping things organized, paper processes are cumbersome, outdated and increasingly risky to maintain. However, recognizing the challenges and complexities of this approach is only the first step. During the Talent Acquisition Tech Conference, Angela Lockman, vice president, Product Management for Equifax Workforce Solutions, will join Shari Conaway, director of People at Southwest Airlines, to discuss the benefits of an updated, automated approach to employee onboarding.

As an organization, Southwest Airlines wanted to reflect a culture of hard work, innovation, respect, reliability and fun for every employee and new hire. Realizing that its paper-based onboarding processes were detracting from this culture, Southwest decided to make a change. Lockman and Conaway will share the steps Southwest took to create an easier, more welcoming experience for new employees and the ways it helped benefit the organization's bottom line. Session attendees will learn how to automate onboarding processes to remove administrative burden, improve compliance and identify tax-credit opportunities, even when the organization has decentralized hiring practices.

Attendees: Talent acquisition, HR and compliance professionals interested in learning how Equifax Workforce Solutions can make onboarding a strategic part of the hiring process are encouraged to attend this session.
