What Should Be Included in an Employee Onboarding Kit?

An employee onboarding kit should include practical items chosen around the new hire’s role, work environment, and daily routine, rather than a generic assortment of merchandise. Office employees may appreciate premium drinkware, notebooks, desk accessories, and branded apparel, while remote hires may get more value from charging accessories, tech organizers, and products that support their home workspace. Field and warehouse employees often need durable bags, outerwear, and job-specific essentials. Companies can also include welcome letters, first-week information, or other onboarding materials so the entire experience feels coordinated from the moment the kit is opened.

The goal is not to fill a box with as many products as possible. It is to choose a smaller number of useful items that fit the employee and reflect the culture they are joining. Product quality, apparel sizing, presentation, and decoration all influence whether the kit feels thoughtful or mass-produced. With access to 106+ imprinting techniques, GiftAFeeling matches each product with a method suited to its material, artwork, budget, and desired finish, from embroidery on jackets and polos to laser engraving on drinkware and full-colour printing on packaging. The result is a kit that looks considered, feels personal, and gives new hires something they will actually want to use.

 

FAQs

 

What are the most useful products for a new hire welcome kit?

The most useful products are the ones employees will still be using after their first week, not just unwrapping on day one. Popular choices include premium drinkware, quality notebooks, comfortable branded apparel, backpacks, and practical tech accessories such as chargers or laptop sleeves. The best onboarding kits are built around the employee's role, work environment, and daily routine.

Are volume discounts available for larger onboarding kit orders?

Yes. GiftAFeeling offers volume discounts on larger onboarding kit orders, with per-unit pricing typically decreasing as quantities increase. Bulk ordering can also reduce decoration, packaging, and assembly costs, helping companies manage recurring new-hire programs more efficiently.

What is the minimum order quantity for employee onboarding kits?

At GiftAFeeling, the minimum order quantity for most employee onboarding kit products is 25 units. Some products may have different minimums depending on the item and customization method, while select print-on-demand products can be ordered individually through a company store.

How long does it take to produce employee onboarding kits?

At GiftAFeeling, most employee onboarding kits take 10 to 15 business days to produce after final artwork approval. Timelines depend on the products, order quantity, and decoration methods selected. Kits with multiple customized items, personalized products, specialty sourcing, or custom packaging may require additional production time.

Do you offer rush production for onboarding kits?

Yes. We offer 24-hour rush production for employee onboarding kits using eligible in-stock products. Orders submitted before 11:00 a.m. ET can be produced and shipped the following business day, subject to artwork approval, order quantity, and decoration requirements. Shipping time is additional.

Which imprinting method is best for employee onboarding kit products?

The best imprinting method depends on the product material, logo design, intended use, and budget. Embroidery works well for apparel, while laser engraving creates a durable finish on drinkware. Screen printing, heat transfers, and full-colour printing suit many other products.

What packaging options are available for employee onboarding kits?

Employee onboarding kits are available with branded mailer boxes, magnetic gift boxes, reusable tote bags, backpacks, and custom shipping cartons. Additional options include tissue paper, welcome cards, printed inserts, stickers, and personalized name cards.

Do you ship onboarding kits directly to a new hire's home address?

Yes. We ship employee onboarding kits directly to individual home addresses across Canada and internationally. This is especially useful for remote and hybrid teams because HR does not need to receive, store, and redistribute each kit.

Can employees order their onboarding kits through a company store?

Yes. Employee onboarding kits can be ordered through a dedicated company store where new hires enter their shipping information, select approved apparel sizes when applicable, and place orders from a pre-approved catalog. Company stores simplify onboarding, reduce administrative work for HR teams, and provide a consistent ordering experience across multiple locations.

Can employee onboarding kits be made with sustainable products?

Yes. Employee onboarding kits can include recycled notebooks, reusable drinkware, responsibly sourced apparel, reusable bags, and packaging made with recycled or lower-waste materials. GiftAFeeling helps businesses select sustainable products that align with their branding goals, budget, product availability, and quality requirements.
