Proportionate evidence
A work output, approved link, system record, completion record, acknowledgement, or authorised observation may be appropriate.
100-day onboarding plan
A 100-day onboarding plan that ends with an evidence-based decision.
Primi Centum gives each new hire a role-specific path from starting context to observable outcomes, reviewed evidence, timely support, and a recorded Day 100 decision.
Important qualification
In Primi Centum, 100 days is a defined governance window. It is not presented as a universal scientific cut-off or a replacement for contractual probation, regulated assessment, employment policy, reasonable-adjustment processes, or legal advice.
Public lifecycle
Five principles from role definition to Day 100.
The public lifecycle explains the accountable journey. Programme configuration and customer-specific operating rules remain private.
Define outcomes
State the observable result, proportionate evidence, and responsible reviewer.
Record context
Capture initial understanding, access needs, and known support requirements.
Review progress
Compare concise evidence with the agreed outcome and quality standard.
Assign support
Record a specific action, responsible person, and review point.
Record the decision
Summarise the evidence, human judgement, remaining support, and next steps.
Illustrative SMART outcome
Set a concise result that can be reviewed without an essay.
This fictional social media example demonstrates the public format. It is not a customer programme, universal standard, or required threshold.
- Outcome
- By Day 30, maintain a four-week approved content calendar across the agreed social channels, with named publishing responsibilities and a weekly performance review.
- Pass standard
- The calendar identifies the channel, owner, and due date for each item; content has recorded brand approval; missed activity has a named recovery action.
- Evidence
- Provide the approved calendar, published links, approval record, and weekly summary of results and actions.
Evidence, not activity alone
A strong plan connects work completed with the result it was meant to support.
Visible support
A gap leads to a named support action, owner, and review point instead of a vague instruction to improve.
Human judgement
The authorised line manager considers the evidence and context, then records the decision and next steps.
