hirees
Recently onboarded workers
Hirees are people who have been hired.
The word is bureaucratic jargon, appearing in HR documents and employment contexts: All new hirees must complete orientation before their start date.
It parallels other -ee formations like employees and trainees, marking the person receiving the action rather than performing it.
