Onboarding, at its most basic, is the gathering and auditing of new employee information — but it should be so much more. Aside from gathering data, onboarding is your chance to introduce your company's mission, culture, and values to your new hire.
This step is not to be overlooked. In fact, outside of gathering basic information, the No. 1 purpose of onboarding should be to acclimate your new employee to your company's why and engage them so they remain excited to work for you.
Yet so many companies overcomplicate onboarding, thereby creating knowledge gaps for HR and missing the chance to make employees feel welcome from day one.
Done poorly, onboarding negatively affects your employee and your organization.
The process itself should be automated, repeatable, compliant, and scalable. To accomplish this effectively, you should be involved before the employee comes on board, preferably via a recruiting platform that allows HR to manage the process.
Managing onboarding effectively goes beyond creating good vibes between the employee and your company; it should move the new hire quickly to substantive job training and work, expediting integration into the company so they can contribute.
Let's look at an example involving an employee named Tamara to see how onboarding should work. In her story, look for areas where your organization can improve.
Tamara receives a job offer from a private college, along with a letter in the mail and a follow-up phone call from her new manager. Tamara doesn't start for two weeks, but HR sends her login information so she can access the HR platform ahead of time.
From there, Tamara electronically completes preliminary documents and performs basic tasks, such as verifying her address and tax withholding information. She fills out her direct deposit information, W-4, handbook receipt, and non-compete agreement.
Next, Tamara uses resources on the HR platform to begin organizational orientation. She learns about the company mission and culture, and she watches short introduction videos from the CEO, HR manager, and other departmental managers.
After Tamara completes orientation, she is prompted to delve into details about benefits — not through stacks of paper, but via modules or videos in the platform. She learns about the amazing benefits, like maternity leave, sabbaticals, 401(k) matching, retirement planning, wellness programs, life insurance, disability, paid time off (PTO), and more. The communications are designed to help Tamara understand all the benefits and, through that understanding, increase her appreciation for her new job.
With benefits background in hand, Tamara moves on to learning about various HR systems, such as how to clock in and out, request vacation time, and more.
On Tamara's first day of work, she feels comfortable and knows faces, not just names and job titles. She also feels prepared, as she has thoroughly reviewed policies and already received training on basic HR systems within the organization before arriving.
On her first day, Tamara has a 30-minute introductory call with the HR director. Because her paperwork was already completed, it has been automatically processed and sent to vendors, synced with payroll, and updated in timekeeping. The purpose of this meeting is purely to establish the relationship, answer questions, and help Tamara feel comfortable coming to HR with any problems she may have.
From there, Tamara spends the rest of her day acclimating to the company culture. She is introduced to the team, shadows employees, and goes to lunch with her coworkers.
The next day, she moves into the task-specific training for her new job.
With this process, there is no back-and-forth for missing or incorrect info, nor any "just sign it" forms Tamara doesn't get a chance to read. Additionally, the info Tamara read during onboarding is still available in her HR portal. If she needs to review it or has questions, she can access it easily.
Once an onboarding system is in place, you have a scalable process that sparks an employee's love of the organization, heads off a stream of questions down the road, and creates an environment where employees know they can come to you for additional help.
Your HR team need only input basic information from the application, if that, and the system automates the rest. You don't have to do anything more than that. In fact, you shouldn't do more if you want to act as a force multiplier in your company. Because automated systems are more efficient, leaders get to spend their time on prevention. They can focus on developing employees and improving the system.
Ultimately, a well-designed onboarding process means less work for HR, not more.

Choosing your outdoor lamps can be a fun and exciting experience. Understanding the characteristics of a lamp will help you choose the best lamps for your outdoor needs.
What exactly is a lamp? For most people the first thing that comes to mind is a desk lamp, or an oil lamp such as the one a genie comes out of when you rub it.
Now I know that outdoor lighting is magical, however the lighting field refers to various types of light bulbs as lamps.
Since lamps come in all shapes and sizes, where do you start?
A lamp's shape and size changes to accommodate it's light distribution, filament design, or arc-tube design.
There are two basic categories of lamps to choose from: Filament Lamps and Discharge Lamps.
Filament lamps are comprised of only one lamp type, incandescent. An easily recognizable incandescent lamp is commonly referred to as your typical light bulb.
Discharge lamps are comprised of two categories, high intensity discharge (HID) and low intensity discharge. HID lamps are commonly used for commercial outdoor lighting applications.
Find out more about HID lamps by clicking here on the commercial outdoor lamps link.
Low intensity discharge lamps consist of outdoor fluorescent lighting, cold cathode, and neon lighting.
Incandescent and HID lamps are identified by a lettering system that is followed by a number. The letters indicate the lamp's style while the numbers tell you the diameter of the bulb.
The numbers to the right of the letter(s) indicates the diameter at the widest part of the lamp. The sizes are broken down by eights of an inch.
For example, if you have a MR16 bulb you know that the bulb style is MR or (mirror reflector).
You also know that the 16 indicates 16 eights of an inch.
So 16/8 = 2. So you know that the fixture is 2 inches in diameter.
Inside an incandescent lamp you will find a filament. The filament is made up of tungsten which heats up when wattage is applied, producing light.
Although tungsten has a high melting point and provides slow filament evaporation, over time the filament will fail.
Filaments are designated by a letter system that helps distinguish each filament type, similar to that of an HID lamp.
CC - is a coiled wire that is itself wound into a larger coil.
Incandescent lamps come in many shapes and sizes allowing for a wide range of beam spreads to choose from. Because of their small filament light source, incandescent lamps have nice tight beam spread that can easily be controlled and focused on an object.
Another type of filament lamp is the tungsten-halogen or quartz lamps.
These lamps are filled with a halogen gas that surrounds the tungsten filament. As the filament burns, the halogen gas helps to re-deposit the evaporated tungsten back onto the filament.
This process is called the Tungsten-Halogen Cycle. It enables the filament to burn at a higher temperature resulting in a whiter color and better efficiency than incandescent lamps.
Halogen lamps have a longer life span than incandescent lamps when operated between 90% and 100% of their rated voltage.
They are also very sensitive to shock and need to be treated with care when handled.
Physical size and variable beam spread are important characteristics commonly sought after in outdoor lamps. The more compact the fixture the easier it can be hidden or blended into your outdoor lighting design.
Mirror reflector lamps are especially good at going undetected because of their compact size. These lamps contain a lamp surrounded by a miniature mirrored reflector.
Since MR lamps are Tungsten-Halogen Lamps, they are great for lighting plants as well as most other outdoor features.
These lamps are very versatile and many outdoor lighting fixtures are available that will work with them.
PAR lamps were originally designed for outdoor use. They have a heat resistant glass that is made to stand up to water and temperature changes.
PAR lamps are often attributed to outdoor flood lighting because of their wide beam spread.
They come in various sizes as well as many different voltages.
The smaller PAR 20 and PAR 30 lamps contain air holes at the base of the lamp to help drain water that could possibly get inside and short out the lamp.
The list goes on and on. With so many lamps to choose from and fresh new designs being invented all the time, it's never boring when shopping for outdoor lamps.

Have you ever made a "One Block Wonder"? To make one you place 6 layers of the same fabric on top of each other lining up the patterns exactly, and then cut them into triangles then sew each group of 6 triangles together into a hexagon. It's so much fun!
Once you're at the site, you'll see this screen under the tab "design helper".
Then press "MAKE HEXIES", and this is what you'll see!
The software magically changes the fabric into what the OBW quilt might be! It's set at the usual 3.75 inch triangle size and 40" wide fabric, but you can change those parameters if you need to.
After uploading the jpeg, I pressed "make hexies" and this is what appeared…isn't it fun?
The first screen shot is random, but this second screen shot was made when I pressed "by color". Then press "snapshot" to get a jpeg that you can save to your computer (right click).
Doesn't look exactly as the program's projection, but it's not too far off. I had an inkling that this fabric would work, but wouldn't it be great to use the program to confirmed it?
In some ways the program spoils the surprise–which is half the fun. But at the same time I think it helps you decide before you buy if the fabric will work. …And when you need to buy several yards of fabric (quite an expense),it's nice to be sure it will look good and work well..
The first is a Kaffe Fassett Lotus Leaf, the second is a Kona Bay fabric, and the third is a fabric by TrendTex that I've had for ages and I'm surprised how well it works.
I'm not sure about the width of fabric in the photo I uploaded. For example, if the fabric is 40″wide, but the photo only shows 20″ of it, I should probably change the parameters to 20 inch width? I'm not sure, but one thing I do know –it's a lot of fun to play with. And it's a great tool for getting some idea of how your fabric might work as a OBW.
For example, here's a fabric I KNOW won't work well –it's too much of the same colors, doesn't have enough movement, and the print is too small. The photo I took was of 20", so I changed the width of fabric in the website program to 20".
YUP, as you can see–although it's pretty, it doesn't really work. It's too much the same.

Tajikistan has highest COVID-19 death toll in Central Asia, Uzbekistan resumes domestic flights
According to the Yandex self-isolation index, the level of self-isolation in Kyrgyzstan is low. The IT giant Yandex reminds that the self-isolation is one of the main measures in the fight against the novel coronavirus. It compares the urban activity level now and on a normal pre-epidemic day.
"If the urban activity level is the same as during the rush hour of the normal weekdays, then it means that the self-isolation level is low and stands at zero, which is obviously bad. If it is quite on the streets, which is typical for late night hours, the self-isolation index will show five on the scale. The higher the figure, the more difficult it is for coronavirus to spread," the Yandex website states.
The self-isolation index in Bishkek on May 18 stands at two, which means that there are many people on the streets. According to official data, Kyrgyzstan reported a total of 1,216 COVID-19 cases and 14 coronavirus-related deaths. Overall, 827 patients reported to have recovered.
The number of people who recovered from COVID-19 is growing in Uzbekistan. The novel coronavirus infected 2,762 people and killed 2,254 patients in the country.
Uzbekistan significantly relaxed quarantine measures due to the increase in the number of cases of recovery from the coronavirus infection. The Uzbek airline UZAirways resumes its domestic flights starting today, May 18. Only passengers who have a certificate confirming that they haven't been infected with coronavirus will be allowed to board the airplane. The COVID-19 test must be taken at the Center for Sanitary and Epidemiological Surveillance within 120 hours before the flight departure time. The flight passengers must be wearing a protective face mask and gloves during the check-in and the flight itself. They must also observe the social distancing while approaching their sit in the cabin of the airplane.
According to the press office of the Uzbek rail carrier 'Oʻzbekiston Temir Yoʻllari', similar sanitary rules and requirements to the passengers were established on the trains as well. The railway services within the country will be resumed starting today, May 18. The passenger transport services on international routes were suspended from March 16 and domestically from March 27.
Meanwhile, according to the Fergana News, Tajikistan became the hardest-hit country in Central Asia in terms of the total number of coronavirus-related deaths. According to recent data, Tajikistan reported a total of more than 1,500 COVID-19 cases and 39 deaths. Another 4,200 Tajik residents are currently under the supervision of doctors.
Another Central Asian state, Turkmenistan, still states that there are no confirmed coronavirus cases in the country.

Sam Smith cancels another performance for vocal rest
Sam Smith. (AP)
Los Angeles - Sam Smith cancelled his performance at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's fifth annual Art + Film Gala on Saturday to go on vocal rest.
The Writing's On The Wall hitmaker was forced to pull out of the charity event, attended by the likes of Kim Kardashian West and Leonardo Di Caprio, just six months after undergoing a throat operation on his vocal chords.
A statement was released by organisers of the charity gala - that brings together the film and art worlds to raise money for the museum and its film-related programming and exhibitions - about Sam's no-show, which read: "Sam Smith has fallen ill and regretfully was unable to perform tonight at the LACMA Art + Film Gala. He was required to go on vocal rest."
Eagles singer Joe Walsh, 67, was forced to step in at the last minute at the Gucci-sponsored event.
Addressing the audience, the Hotel California singer said: "Well, here I am. I'm glad to be here, I think. I'm just going to play a couple songs, and we'll see what happens."
A host of big name stars who attended the charity gala missed out on hearing the Sam sing, including Gwyneth Paltrow, Reese Witherspoon, Jared Leto, Salma Hayek, Jason Statham, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and his wife Sam Taylor-Johnson and Usher.
The news comes after Sam, 23, revealed last week he was suffering from a throat infection and the pain was so bad it felt as though he had a "tennis ball" stuck in his throat.
In an Instagram post, he shared: "Feeling very sorry for myself. Throat Glands are so fucking big. Feel like I have a tennis ball down my throat (sic)"
Feeling very sorry for myself tonight. Throat Glands are so fucking big. Feel like I have a tennis ball down my throat ??
