What is employee onboarding and offboarding in IT?

Employee onboarding and offboarding in IT refers to the technical process of provisioning or deactivating user accounts, access permissions, devices, and software licenses. IT plays a critical role in ensuring that new hires are set up for success and that departing employees no longer have access to company systems or data.

How can automation improve the onboarding and offboarding process?

Automation streamlines employee lifecycle management by triggering workflows for user creation, access setup, device deployment, and account deactivation. This reduces errors, saves time for HR and IT teams, and ensures consistency with every onboarding or offboarding event.

How does VirtuWorks support HR teams during employee onboarding?

VirtuWorks works closely with HR departments to automate routine IT tasks, ensuring new hires are onboarded quickly and securely. We coordinate account setup, access permissions, and device delivery while syncing timelines with HR and payroll platforms like UKG.

Can VirtuWorks integrate with UKG or other payroll systems?

Yes. VirtuWorks integrates with payroll platforms such as UKG to align IT provisioning with HR data. This connection helps automate tasks like user creation, license assignment, and email provisioning based on employee status changes in the HR system.

What are the security risks of improper employee offboarding?

Failing to properly offboard employees can lead to data breaches, unauthorized access, and compliance violations. VirtuWorks helps mitigate these risks by ensuring all user access is revoked, company data is removed from devices, and all accounts are fully deprovisioned upon exit.

Why is IT involvement critical in onboarding and offboarding employees?

Without IT involvement, onboarding can lead to delays and errors, while offboarding may leave critical access points open. VirtuWorks ensures that every step, from account creation to data removal, is handled securely, efficiently, and in alignment with HR policies.
