HR Audits/HR healthchecks

A HR audit is an excellent resource to give you an independent, impartial and comprehensive review of your HR practices and procedures that will help you reduce risk and cost, improve performance, and reveal where HR can add real value to your business.

HR audits take a look at your current practices, policies, job functions, and outcomes of all the complex components of modern human resources.  We work with clients to carry out independent reviews to help you assess your current strengths and explore any opportunities that exist.

HR audits can be comprehensive or focused on one or several areas.   Our skilled team will recommend a HR audit that is absolutely appropriate for your organisation.  Some of the areas an audit can explore are:

  • Recruitment and onboarding
  • Leadership
  • Training and development
  • Employee relations
  • Performance management
  • Strategic planning
  • HR documentation
  • Best practice
  • Compliance with employment law

At Holgate HR, we help maximise the impact and value of your HR processes.
