This form should be printed out, completed, and placed in the new Collective member's file.

Checklist

When a new collective member is hired there are several steps that need to be performed. It's the buddy's job to make certain these steps are accomplished. Most of these things must be done by other people but it's the buddy's responsibility to make certain that it gets done and that a complete hard copy of this document exists in the new hire's file.

The buddy needs to determine an orientation schedule, and will need to arrange appointments with other collective members (noted in bold beside the task) who are responsible for parts of the orientation.
