What is an HR Audit?
Human Resource Audit is a comprehensive method of objective and systematic verification of current practices, documentation, policies and procedures prevalent in the HR system of the organization. An effective HR audit helps in identifying the need for improvement and enhancement of the HR function. It also guides the organization in maintaining compliance with ever-changing rules and regulations. An HR audit helps in analyzing the gap between ‘what is the current HR function’ and ‘what should be/could be the best possible HR function’ in the organization.
Though HR auditing is not mandatory like financial auditing, organizations are opting for regular HR audits in order to examine their existing HR system including organization's policies, strategies and objectives, and legal requirements. This can help companies minimize the risk of lawsuits, human rights complaints and other forms of recourse a dissatisfied employee can take.
Primary components of the HR audit include – documentation, job descriptions, policies, recruitment and selection, training and development, compensation and employee benefit system, career management, employee relations, performance measurement and evaluation process, termination, key performance indicators, and HR Information Systems (HRIS).
