What's the preferred method of setting up employees with macs?

I'm buying new iMacs for certain employees and I'm not sure what the best process is for managing their accounts.

Is it as simple as setting up their Apple account with their work email address? I believe an account is a requirement for all new machines. The accounts will run on a single machine.

Also, would it be a straightforward change of accounts on the macs for new employees who take over the machines?

Apologies if this is as straightforward as above, just thought I'd double check incase there's a better/preferred way to manage these processes. All my apple products run on the same personal account so I've never swapped over accounts or the like.
 
Most businesses I've encountered tend to use a Mac server. Then you can use the profile manager to manage all the Mac's and user accounts. It's then easy to push out apps etc. that you have bought from the volume purchase program.
