Onboarding a new technician in their first week
A simple five-day plan so a new hire is useful quickly and safely.
- Day one: paperwork and safety. Complete forms, licences check and a safety walk-through.
- Day two: ride along. Let them watch how you talk to customers.
- Day three: supervised work. Give a small job while you stay close.
- Day five: review. Talk through what went well and what to practice next.
