HR Workflow Template for Small Teams and Agencies
HR for a 4-25 person agency is not the same problem as HR for a 500-person company. A team this size does not need an HRIS, a dedicated HR manager, or expensive per-seat HR software. It needs structured workflows for the handful of recurring HR tasks that require consistency: onboarding, leave requests, performance reviews, and offboarding.
This template provides a Kanban board for those four workflows, running in the same workspace as the team's project management.
The Four HR Workflows This Template Covers
The onboarding column handles new hires from offer acceptance to 30-day check-in. Cards move through stages: pre-boarding tasks completed, day-one checklist done, first assignment given, 30-day review completed. Each card links to the role-specific onboarding checklist for that hire.
The leave request column tracks pending and approved leave. Leave request cards include the team member, dates, leave type, and approval status. Approved leave automatically syncs to the team calendar. The manager sees all pending requests in one column without checking individual messages.
The performance review column tracks review cycles. Cards are created 30 days before each team member's review date and move through: review prepared, self-assessment submitted, review conversation completed, goals documented.
The offboarding column handles team member departures with equipment return, access revocation, knowledge transfer tasks, and final documentation. Most agencies handle offboarding informally and later discover access was never revoked or that a departing team member was the only person who knew a client's login details.
Why One Board Covers All HR Work
Separate tools for each HR function create the same problem separate apps create in project management: context switching, unclear ownership, and data that does not connect. When leave approvals appear on the project calendar and onboarding tasks link to the team member's employee profile, the workflows connect without integration setup.
