International Human Resources Audit Checklist

The HR audit is the process of examining intensely and objectively the organization’s HR policies, procedures, documentation, systems, practices, and strategies to protect the organization from litigation, establish best practices, and identify opportunities for improvement. An objective review of the employer’s “current state” can help evaluate whether specific practice areas are adequate, legal, and effective.

The results obtained from this audit checklist can help identify gaps in HR practices. HR can then prioritize these gaps to minimize lawsuits or regulatory violations and achieve and maintain world-class competitiveness in key HR practice areas.
