How to use it

Your first 15 minutes

Step 1 is the Field Guide, file 9. Work down from there, and by step 5 you set the 30/60/90 plan in the Workbook.

  1. Read the Field Guide first. It covers the whole arc, from before day one through the 90-day review, the safety orientation, and the compliance basics you cannot skip.

  2. Open the Workbook and enter the new hire, the line, the shift, and the start date. The phase dates, the live status, and the compliance deadlines fill in for you.

  3. Run pre-boarding from the onboarding checklist: order PPE in the right sizes, set up the time clock and locker, send the paperwork, and line up the buddy and the orientation.

  4. Run day one from the Day One Floor Checklist, hold the safety orientation from the Safety Orientation Pack, and file the signed record.

  5. Set the 30/60/90 plan in the Workbook, stand up the buddy program from the Buddy Program Guide, and keep the check-ins running through week one and the 30, 60, and 90day reviews.

Before you buy

Clear answers to the practical questions.

The point of a product page is to let you judge the work before checkout.

What exactly do I receive?

8 PDF guides, 3 Word documents, 1 Excel workbook, each one named in the What is inside section above. The purchase is a download, not a subscription, and the files are yours to keep.

Are these the real screenshots?

Yes. The preview images on this page are taken from the current deliverable, so you can judge the structure and writing before buying.

Can I use the files in my business?

The files are designed to be edited for your own internal operations. Review the included license and have legal counsel check decisions that require jurisdiction-specific advice.

What if I need help applying it?

Use the $149 Setup Session for one hour of implementation help on this tool. TrueStep HR does not offer broader consulting engagements. For a legal question, use qualified counsel.
