At the end of the session, participants will have a template to use for auditing human resource functions, instruction on sample selection, review and analysis processes, regulatory requirements and best practices that should be included, and other information necessary to conduct internal HR audits. Cases, examples, situational analysis and other activities are incorporated to ensure a “hands on” learning experience. Questions are always welcome thorough out.
At the conclusion of the second day, you will have gone through a full audit process, have the data, sample results, and all other information and materials needed to draft an audit report/summary and the experience of having completed an audit prior to “soloing”.
This process facilitates the collection of vital information that is often not available to internal auditors, frees participants to address work demands while learning and while the audit process continues and results in your receipt of a complete written audit report which is followed by a presentation and de-brief on your site with the HR Audit, Inc. auditor.
The on-site portion of the audit in this option takes 3-4 days. HR Audit, Inc. will draft the written report which will follow three weeks after the on-site portion, and the presentation scheduled at your discretion. One of the vital pieces of information collected during this option that internal auditors tell us they rarely are able to get themselves is the candid input from members of the senior management team and other department heads on their expectations and perception of the performance of the HR department. Internal auditors have also indicated that unless an independent, arms-length, third party is involved readers of the audit often view the findings with skepticism, diminishing the value of going through the arduous audit process and not resulting in the appropriate level of appreciation/recognition for the department’s contribution. Internal audits which include resource requests, technology updates and staffing needs are often viewed by decision makers as “self-serving” and acted upon accordingly. This option results in an independent report and assessment, an example of a written audit, a formal presentation of the findings, a template to use in other locations, and an annual follow-up audit process.
HR Audit, Inc. will provide quotes upon request. All prices quoted are “not to exceed” figures and will include all costs. Options two and three also include unlimited telephone support for 12 months following the on-site visit to answer questions, provide recommendations or simply serve as a sounding board.
The HR Audit, Inc. audit process is unique in that in addition to assessing compliance with regulatory requirements and best practices, our audit process objective is, “How can your department better maximize its strategic contribution to the organization?” Consequently, the audit process you will learn and/or we will complete reviews the alignment of the organization’s strategic objectives with HR functions, practices, policies and procedures and assesses to what degree “continuous improvement” is likely. We also assist with the identification of the most appropriate and valuable department performance measures and objectives.
