Onboarding and offboarding employees requires careful attention. Otherwise, team members may receive insufficient permissions to perform their jobs or continue to have access long after their employment’s termination. Given the stakes, the problem is even worse when managing IT staff permissions, so it’s imperative that your company adopts a system to ensure consistency.

Employees, contractors and interns come and go. IT departments, of course, are tasked with ensuring the proper accounts, applications, services and permissions are assigned to each user. The process quickly becomes complex, considering the variety of corresponding elements that must be tracked for every onboarding and offboarding cycle. However, when enrolling or disabling an IT staff member’s accounts and services, each of the required steps becomes that much more important.

Following a checklist, like the one written by Erik Eckel for TechRepublic Premium, or even adapting the checklist for your organization will ensure a smooth transition when onboarding and offboarding members of your IT staff.
