Automating employee onboarding and offboarding means creating workflows where every step — documentation, system access, equipment delivery, access revocation — is triggered automatically and tracked in real time. Jestor lets you build these complete processes without code, with checklists, notifications, and a full per-employee record.

## Why Manual Onboarding and Offboarding Create Risks

HR processes without automation depend on memory and informal communication. A missed step in onboarding delays the employee's start; a missed step in offboarding is a security and compliance risk.

- Onboarding documents collected in a fragmented way, without a system
- System access not revoked on time after an employee's departure
- No visibility into how many onboardings and offboardings are in progress simultaneously

## How to Structure Onboarding and Offboarding Automation

- **Process intake form:** the manager enters the employee's information and the type of transition (joining or leaving)
- **Automatic checklist by type:** for onboarding, a list of documents and access requests; for offboarding, returns and cancellations
- **Notifications by owner:** IT, HR, finance, and the manager each receive their tasks at the right time
- **SLA per step:** defined deadline for each checklist item, with overdue alerts
- **Closure with record:** the process closes only when every step is completed

## Why Jestor Stands Out in Onboarding and Offboarding Automation

- Forms that automatically trigger checklists when submitted by the manager
- Tasks with subtasks per department (IT, HR, finance) triggered automatically in parallel
- Native SLA with alerts for owners who are overdue — no manual follow-up
- Full history of every transition — who did what and when
- Granular permissions: each department sees only its own tasks within the process
