Onboarding software saves you time and effort by automating all the hiring admin that you'd otherwise have to do yourself. In the past, someone at every small business (someone like you!) had to collect new starter details from their employees manually, usually over email and then noted down in spreadsheets or Google Docs.
That might work the first couple of times, but sooner or later that admin starts to get overwhelming.
Here's how Charlie does things instead:
You set up your company's bespoke onboarding flow, then keep it saved and ready for the next time you make a hire.
Then, you can invite new team members with a single click. Charlie will collect all the employee data for you, without you needing to chase up.
We'll keep their employment details safe and secure, and where you can always find them.
If you want, you can also create onboarding checklists and delegate tasks to line manager
And don't worry – we'll make sure your whole onboarding process is fully compliant and up-to-date with UK employment law.

Onboarding is an essential step in setting up new employees for success.
However, without the right onboarding tools it can quickly become a full-time job in itself, especially if you work at a small business without an HR team.
That’s why many startups and small companies choose to switch from manual HR processes to onboarding software — so that they can streamline and automate the most repetitive onboarding tasks and get some time back to focus on building a high-performing team.
On top of cutting back on manual admin, another reason small businesses use onboarding software is make sure every new employee gets a warm welcome and a positive onboarding experience from day one.
A good first impression is really key to engaging new joiners, and onboarding software like CharlieHR helps you deliver that.
A third, very important reason why small companies need an onboarding platform is legal compliance. Small business onboarding solutions like Charlie ensure you tick off all the necessary steps required by employment law, with no space for forgetfulness or human error — so you’re safe in the knowledge you’re protecting your business at all times.
