Start Date

The first day the user will work for the company and needs access to systems and applications. The amount of time between the hire date and start date is your lead time for onboarding the new hire. Typically for employees this is 2-4 weeks and sometimes longer depending on the notice period of the user. For contractors this is often less than 24 hours and in at least 10%+ of cases is actually after they are onsite. This general culture of waiting until the last minute to request access is also a big driver for automation where in reality this is the culture that needs to change.

Also consider that some users first days onsite might be in training and they may not require systems access until this is completed. Why does this matter? Because if they do not complete the training they might never need it.
