How to Create an Work Equipment List for a Job Role

  1. Start by creating a list of all job roles
  2. Have a job requirements catalog ready for each role
  3. Assign the necessary equipment for each role (such as computers, office supplies, safety gear, keys, software, etc.)
  4. This will create a checklist you can use as a reference, for example, when planning a new employee’s onboarding
