All new County employees should attend a New Employee Orientation (NEO) either with their department or a general enrollment class presented at the Workforce Development Center within 30 days of their start of employment. Orientation will provide useful information to new employees as they navigate the often times confusing on-boarding process. Topics covered will include the following areas:
WELCOME TO THE COUNTY
PENSION BENEFITS
DEFERRED COMPENSATION
DISCRIMINATION & HARASSMENT IN THE WORKPLACE
SEIU
ENERGY & SUSTAINABILITY
PURCHASING OVERVIEW
WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT - Planning for (Your) Success
HEALTH & SAFETY IN THE WORKPLACE
EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Additionally, the NEO contains content that is mandated by the Board of Supervisors and other entities such as Cal-OSHA (Workplace Safety) and the Department of Homeland Security (NIMS).
