We’ve prepared several resources to help new employees get to know and understand the company. This page describes a four-step orientation process applicable to all new Turner employees. New employees will also receive a hard copy of this process as a Welcome Guide.
STEP ONE: We want new employees to feel a part of our team right from the start. The Welcome Guide is the first step. It’s an introduction to Turner and explains how to get ready for the first day. See the Paperwork section for a list of items new employees need to read and/or complete, sign and return to Turner in advance of their first day.
STEP TWO: Within the first few days as a Turner employee, new employees will receive a comprehensive Getting Started Manual. This manual is designed to provide valuable information to help new employees feel at home and productive on their first day at work. Also, at orientation, new employees will find out more about Turner, about people they will meet, items they will receive, things they will learn about, and resources they can take advantage of as a Turner employee. For example:
- First-day checklists to help make the most of the resources available
- A high level overview of Turner’s culture, philosophy, policies, and procedures
- Information about the work group
- Places to know
STEP THREE: An important step in the orientation process is receiving a more detailed introduction to Turner by taking the following learning courses on the Turner Knowledge Network (TKN) within the first two months of employment:
- Orientation: Getting Started at Turner
- Understanding Turner – Orientation for Experienced Hires
- Turner History and Culture
- Century of Excellence
- Career Counseling
- Business Meeting Etiquette
STEP FOUR: While the first month at Turner is significant in any career, we think that life after orientation is even more critical. We plan to stay in touch, and show new employees ways to manage their career at Turner. Staying connected is important, so new employees need to get to know colleagues within their business unit or job site, meet with various department heads and reach out to a mentor.
