Human Resources Audit

This service provides management with an unbiased, outside appraisal of the Human Resources function. In view of frequently changing legal requirements, such an audit can identify problem areas before they become overly costly or embarrassing to management. The audit also provides management with valuable information from which to intelligently plan for present and future Human Resources needs.

The Human Resources Audit is a thorough review of your personnel policies and practices. It provides an assessment of your present operation in the areas of recruitment, placement, compensation, benefits, employee relations, and legal compliance. The audit includes an inspection of your personnel files, employee handbook, policy and procedures manual, application forms, and other documentation used for record keeping. The audit also includes interviews with your Human Resources staff.

The Audit provides you with a detailed summary of the findings outlining the areas where change is recommended along with proposed actions to be taken.

Mediation is now receiving the recognition in the community that it deserves as an effective, efficient way of disposing of litigation.
