Thursday, July 16, 2026

July 16, 2026
1:00 PM – 2:00 PM Eastern Time
4th Webinar in the 2026 TCA Online Recruitment & Retention Series

Stop viewing new hire orientation as a checklist and start leveraging it as a strategic tool for long-term retention and performance. This session reveals the critical difference between a static orientation process and a dynamic, comprehensive onboarding program designed to maximize new hire success and loyalty.

Key Takeaways:

  • Recognize the difference between traditional orientation and a strategic onboarding program and articulate why it’s crucial for driver and staff retention.
  • Create a company culture where all managers and team members understand their role in welcoming and integrating new hires, turning the process into a team-wide effort rather than an HR task.
  • Identify key metrics to measure the effectiveness of their onboarding program, such as time-to-productivity, turnover rates, and employee engagement scores.
  • Develop a structured 30-60-90-day onboarding plan that goes beyond initial training to include social integration, performance goal setting, and continuous feedback.
