Employee Onboarding Gamification at the First Task: Triggers
What should trigger employee onboarding gamification at a new hire's first real task?
Trigger the first-action stage when the HRIS start date passes and the new hire's first role task is assigned, not at offer acceptance. A Talent Development Manager chooses the incentive by verification method and tax treatment, and hands any taxable reward to payroll before the pay cycle closes.
