Budgetly's Staff Induction Checklist (Civic & Social Services)

Civic and social services organisations onboard staff who work directly with vulnerable communities. Every new employee must understand safeguarding protocols, client confidentiality, government compliance obligations, and the specific programs they will support. A thorough induction protects both the people you serve and your organisation’s funding compliance.

This free staff induction checklist gives civic and social services organisations a structured framework for onboarding new team members, covering safeguarding compliance, program-specific procedures, and financial onboarding with Budgetly.

What’s inside

• Day one essentials: background check confirmation, office or site orientation, case management system access, government funding overview, and emergency procedures
• First week compliance: safeguarding policy, government compliance obligations, cultural awareness training, and privacy policy review and sign-off
• Expense and card onboarding: Budgetly app setup, Visa debit card activation, spend limits, and receipt upload training

Who is it for?
