Effective Onboarding
Why effective onboarding is more important than ever:
A successful onboarding strategy will reduce attrition and increase employee engagement, both of which impact your bottom line. 💷
Investing time and resources in a thorough onboarding process goes beyond paperwork; it sets the stage for success on all fronts. 🌐
➡ Accelerated Integration: A well-structured onboarding process ensures new employees quickly acclimatise to the industry's unique nuances, boosting their confidence and productivity.
➡ Cultural Alignment: Creating a sense of belonging is key. Proper onboarding not only imparts knowledge but also facilitates connection to the company culture, making for more engaged and committed team members.
➡ Retention Boost: Employees who undergo comprehensive onboarding are more likely to stay for the long haul. Investing in their success from day one fosters loyalty and reduces turnover.
➡ Productivity Increase: Efficient onboarding minimises the learning curve, enabling candidates to hit the ground running. This not only benefits individual performance but positively impacts team efficiency.
Creating a culture of happy, engaged, and inspired employees starts with their onboarding experience. Unfortunately we do still see companies who focus on the first couple of weeks only, and then wonder why their retention rates are low! 🤝

HelloFresh vs Gousto…
I’m a sucker for a good discount code, and I’ve seen numerous influencers posting codes lately about HelloFresh and Gousto so I thought I’d give them a try. Although recipe boxes have been around awhile now, I’m totally new to trying them. There’s a few pros and cons I’ve noticed so far.
Why Talent Shortages are More Damaging Than Supply Chain Issues
In the Food and Drink manufacturing industry, we're no strangers to disruption. From Brexit to Covid, global conflicts to raw material shortages, supply chains have taken a beating over the last few years. And while those headlines have dominated, there's a quieter, more dangerous challenge threatening the industry's long term stability: the talent shortage. Yes, a late shipment can throw off your production line. But a missing team leader, technical manager, or site director? That can derail your entire operation.
A Lens whilst Shopping
There was an article this week in the Food Manufacture by Bethan Grylls, titled "Reading food and drink labels with sight loss" - and how food manufacturing companies can make their packaging more inclusive and accessible for those with visual impairments. It is a really insightful article exploring the world of a VIP (Visually Impaired Person) and certainly made me think of scenarios I hadn't thought of before - how are VIPs expected to navigate their way around a supermarket and read food and drink labels. As a coeliac, I wear my glasses on my head in the supermarket as I am constantly trying to read the ever decreasing font size on food labelling to ensure the product I buy is safe for me! I cannot imagine how challenging it must be for VIPs. It will be interesting to see how the technologies currently available and those yet to be invented, can help VIPs and those of us whose eyesight is likely to deteriorate further.
