From Offer to Cleared
Every new PANOPTICON hire follows the same controlled onboarding sequence regardless of division. It runs from the signed offer through clearance, biocontainment induction, the exposure medical baseline, systems provisioning on PANACEA and VITALNET, mentor assignment, and role certification — closing with a probation review. No new staff member touches a dose floor or the vault until the gated steps below are complete and logged.
Onboarding Timeline
The pathway is gated by phase. Each step has a single accountable owner and a logged output that HR verifies before the next phase opens.
