Employee Onboarding Form

Onboard new employees smoothly — personal details, department, tools and accessibility needs — so day one is ready for them.

Description

An employee onboarding form gathers everything HR and IT need to set a new hire up properly before their first day. Instead of chasing details across emails, you collect their personal and emergency information, the tools they’ll need and any accessibility requirements in one place — so day one is about welcome, not paperwork.

It captures the employee’s full name, date of birth and contact details, their home address, department and employment type, and emergency contact information. The work tools they need, any accessibility needs with room to describe them, and a data consent field mean everything’s ready and compliant before they arrive.

Customize the departments, tools and fields to match your company, restyle it in your brand colors, and embed it on your intranet so onboarding runs smoothly.

Template FAQs

Common questions about the Employee Onboarding Form — what it captures, when to use it, and how to make it your own.

What is an employee onboarding form?

It’s a form new hires complete before starting, so HR and IT can set them up. It captures personal and emergency details, department, the tools they’ll need and any accessibility requirements, so everything’s ready for a smooth, welcoming first day.

What does the form capture?

The employee’s full name, date of birth and contact details, home address, department and employment type, and emergency contact information. The work tools they need, any accessibility needs, and a data consent field complete the onboarding record.

When should it be completed?

After the offer is accepted and before the start date. Collecting everything in advance gives IT time to provision equipment and accounts, HR time to set up records, and the new hire a first day spent settling in rather than filling in forms.

Who is this form for?

HR teams, IT departments and MSPs that onboard staff, and the new employees joining. It suits any organization that wants onboarding to be organized and welcoming, with accounts, equipment and access ready before someone walks through the door.

Why ask about accessibility needs?

Setting up the right equipment or adjustments before a new hire starts means they can work comfortably from day one, rather than raising it awkwardly later. Asking up front shows you take inclusion seriously and gives IT time to arrange anything needed properly.

Is this form free to use?

Yes — it’s free. Create a Fun Forms account, customize the departments, tools and fields to match your company, restyle it to your brand, and embed it on your intranet with no coding. New hire details then arrive ready to set up.
