Abstract

The human resource (HR) audit is a strategic tool for assessing the effectiveness, efficiency, and alignment of HR practices within an organisation. This audit helps define clear objectives for improving HR functions, supporting strategic decision-making, and ensuring compliance with regulations. Key objectives include evaluating employee performance management, identifying HR strengths and weaknesses, and fostering a productive work environment. The HR audit’s significance lies in its role in uncovering potential gaps in workforce management and enhancing organisational growth. This audit can be conducted through various types, such as compliance, performance, and strategic audits, each catering to different HR aspects. The HR audit process involves planning, collecting data, evaluating findings, and providing recommendations. With evolving trends in HR technology and analytics, the future of HR audits will likely see a shift towards digitalisation and predictive insights, enabling more proactive and agile HR strategies. This comprehensive exploration is complemented by a summary, review exercises, case studies, group activities, and resources, providing an interactive and practical approach to mastering HR audit fundamentals.
