"All you need to know the first week of employment is how to find the coffee machine" : A qualitative study of officials onboarding process (English)
Abstract [sv]

Syfte: Syftet med studien är att skapa förståelse för en organisations specifika onboardingprocess och vilka delar som beskrivs viktiga för att en nyanställd ska komma in i sin roll samt organisationen utifrån HR-funktionens, chefer och nyanställdas perspektiv. Förhoppningen med studien är också att nyckelpersoner inom onboarding kan använda sig av studiens resultat för att reflektera över hur onboardingprocessen upplevs och fungerar i deras organisation.

Metod: Studien är en kvalitativ fallstudie med induktiv ansats. Det empiriska materialet har samlats in genom semistrukturerade intervjuer. Intervjuerna genomfördes med fem tjänstemän, två chefer och en HR-manager.

Slutsats: Studien framställer flertalet centrala delar med onboardingprocessen utifrån de tre perspektiven. Det mest centrala under processen, i det specifika fallet, är att kunna arbeta med individanpassning för att möta samtliga behov. Även tidsaspekten är en av de mest centrala delarna som påverkar upplevelsen av onboarding.

Abstract [en]

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to create an understanding of an organisation’s specific onboarding process. The aim is also to provide an understanding of the essential parts in adapting to the position and organisation described by the HR-function, managers and officials. The results of the study will hopefully provide key individuals in the field of onboarding with the opportunity to reflect on how the onboarding process is experienced and how it functions in their organisation.

Method: This study is a qualitative case study with an inductive approach. The empirical material has been collected through semi-structured interviews. The interviews were conducted with five officials, two managers and one HR manager.

Conclusion: This study highlights a number of essential parts regarding the onboarding based on the three perspectives. The most essential part in this specific case is being able to work with individual factors to satisfy the needs of the new employee. The aspect of time is also one of the most essential parts that will affect the experience of onboarding.
