The perfect onboarding box: A sustainable start for new employees
Get off to a successful start with the right onboarding box
Onboarding new employees is a crucial phase in welcoming them from the start and integrating them into the corporate culture. A well-designed onboarding box can play a major role here. It not only makes it easier to get started, but also increases the motivation and retention of new team members.
In this article, we'll show you why an onboarding box is a worthwhile investment, how it contributes to employer branding, and the benefits of sustainable merchandise products.
What belongs in an onboarding box?
An onboarding box should be more than just a collection of giveaways. It should have a clear connection to corporate culture and give new employees the feeling of being part of the team right from the start. Typical content includes personalized articles such as:
- T-shirts or hoodies with the company logo
- Notebooks and pens in the corporate design
- A welcome card with a personal message
- Practical items such as USB sticks or cups for everyday use
In addition, it makes sense to include additional information about the company and important contacts to make it easier to get started. The better the onboarding box is tailored to the corporate culture, the more positive the first impression will be. You can find an overview of our articles here.
Sustainable merchandise for onboarding boxes
An important aspect of designing an onboarding box is sustainability. In times when environmentally conscious action is becoming more and more important, it is crucial to use sustainable products for employee gifts as well. Sustainable merchandise not only shows a sense of responsibility, but also strengthens the trust of new employees in the company.
We have a variety of environmentally friendly products that are perfect for your employees' onboarding box. From organic cotton shirts to warm socks, all of our items are made under fair conditions and from environmentally friendly materials. In this way, you can be sure that your onboarding box is not only well received, but also makes a positive contribution to the environment.
Onboarding boxes as part of employer branding
An onboarding box is a powerful tool for communicating company values and employer brand right at the start of the employment relationship. Personalized merchandise that is tailored to the corporate identity helps to position the company as an attractive employer. New employees immediately feel integrated and valued through well-thought-out onboarding gifts. This not only increases motivation, but also long-term commitment to the company.
By investing in high-quality onboarding boxes, you create a positive first experience that will shape your company's image in the long term. The new team members recognize that the company not only values professional onboarding, but also employee satisfaction.
Motivation through personalized onboarding packages
Onboarding packages, which have been put together with care and consideration, have a major impact on motivating new employees. They give the feeling that the company cares about everyone. Personalized items in particular, such as corporate design T-shirts or products specifically tailored to them, create an emotional bond. An onboarding gift that goes beyond purely functional aspects and has a personal touch ensures that new employees feel welcomed and valued right from the start.
The option to individually adapt the Onboarding Box items, for example to the colors of the company or to specific teams, also strengthens the sense of community and promotes identification with the company.
Long-term benefits of onboarding boxes
Investing in a well-thought-out onboarding box pays off in the long term. On the one hand, it strengthens employee loyalty and ensures that new employees are integrated and motivated more quickly. On the other hand, it contributes to a positive perception of the company — both internally and externally. Successful onboarding shows that the company values employee satisfaction, which in turn has a positive effect on the working environment and productivity.
In addition, onboarding boxes have a long-term effect on employer branding. Employees who feel welcomed and well looked after right from the start often speak positively about their experiences in the new company, which strengthens the company's image and attracts future talent.
Conclusion: Onboarding boxes as a strategic tool
An onboarding box is much more than just a nice welcome gift. It is a strategic tool for motivating and retaining new employees right from the start. By using sustainable merchandise and individually designed onboarding gifts, you can not only strengthen your corporate culture, but also make a positive contribution to the environment.
Take the opportunity to establish well-thought-out onboarding packages as part of your employer branding. Invest in high-quality, personalized and sustainable onboarding boxes and make the first day of your new employees an unforgettable experience.
