A welcome email tells a new hire that you have given thought to their position, and that they are not just another worker at the company. But this is not it\u2019s only purpose. <br><br>The welcome email gives a new hire information on their role, the company\u2019s values and company culture; information that they will certainly reference as they settle in. It provides a core understanding that is so crucial to ramp up engagement and productivity right from the start. Begin with this step to set your new hire up for success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-advancedbtn kt-btn-align-center kt-btn-tablet-align-inherit kt-btn-mobile-align-inherit kt-btns-wrap kt-btns_b6ab8e-a3\"><div class=\"kt-btn-wrap kt-btn-wrap-0\"><a class=\"kt-button button kt-btn-0-action kt-btn-size-standard kt-btn-style-basic kt-btn-svg-show-always kt-btn-has-text-true kt-btn-has-svg-false\" href=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/bb70c47434a91350eb4269608\/files\/e0cc550d-d5a7-4379-85d6-1a87754f273c\/2._NEW_HIRE_SAMPLE_EMAIL.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span class=\"kt-btn-inner-text\"><strong>Download the welcome email template!<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"color:#8b8b8b\" class=\"has-text-color\"><em>Enable Education is working hard to help businesses create sustainable training resources that can be used in the current working environment and once our world settles into a new normal.
