If you are up with current affairs, you can see that it has become more and more complicated when it comes to compliance with federal and state employment laws. The best way to ensure you can sleep at night, knowing that you will not have “Uncle Sam” come knocking at your door is to audit your Human Resource practices.
Below is a list of employment practices to be reviewed:
Wage and hour pay practices
Compensation
Pre and post hire processes
Immigration
Leave of Absences
Independent Contractors
Worker’s Compensation
Employee Handbooks
Etc.
An HR Audit is the best way to determine if you are compliant and if you have best practices.
Good HR practices not only keep employers compliant but it can also aid with recruiting and retention among other benefits.
I encourage you to seriously consider conducting an audit of your HR practices. I would suggest using a certified HR consultant/professional who can look at your organization with an “outsiders” prospective.
