Onboarding in social work?!

This paper deals with onboarding i.e. the initial period of induction and training when starting a new job in the field of social work. The aim of this paper was to present the satisfaction of graduates from the last four graduating classes of bachelor's and master's degree programmes in social work and comparable studies with onboarding in social enterprises in 2016 and 2017. To achieve this goal it was necessary to clarify a number of questions. It was necessary to find out which tools and measures were used and to determine which individuals provided support during the induction and training period. In addition to presenting the participants' satisfaction with individual aspects of their onboarding phase the results of this study also show that for satisfied employees it is not the number of tools used for induction and training that matters but rather their structured use and sufficient human and time resources.
