Conduct an HR audit

Winston Churchill once said, "Let our advance worrying become "advance thinking and planning." In other words, you could spend your time worrying about whether employees are correctly classified as exempt or non-exempt or if the time clock calculates vacation correctly or you could take the time to perform an audit on Human Resources to ensure that everything is in order. An audit is a great way to ensure the things you are responsible for are compliant and up-to-date. In conducting your audit, the first thing you'll want to do is create a checklist of all things HR. I've made it easy on you and put one in the Exercise Files for this course.

As you review the checklist, I'm certain some things will stand out to you as desperately needing an audit while others may not. For that reason, the next thing you should do is create an audit plan. The audit plan will help you stay on track. As you can see in the template audit plan I put in the Exercise Files, the first part is the Scope. Depending on what you're auditing, you may say.
