HR Compliance Audits for Small Businesses

Professional HR Risk Assessment Services

​

Take control of your HR with an in-depth review designed to give small and medium businesses clarity and confidence in their people practices. We take a careful look at your HR practices, policies, and procedures to uncover compliance risks and opportunities to strengthen how your HR runs. We go beyond surface-level checks — looking closely at each area of your HR operations and how well it aligns with current federal, state and local employment laws.

​

Where to Start:  Three Levels of Review

Every business is in a different place, so we offer three levels of review. You don't need to know which one is right — we'll help you decide on a quick call.

​

• HR Health Check — A focused look at your highest-risk areas, like worker classification, key policies, and core compliance. The fastest way to see where you're most exposed.

• Comprehensive HR Audit — A full review across all seven areas of your HR function, delivered with a clear findings report and a prioritized roadmap of what to address first.

• Comprehensive HR Audit + Action Plan — Everything in the Comprehensive HR Audit, plus a detailed, phased action plan: what to fix, in what order, with the templates and timeline to guide it.

​​

What We Review:  The Seven Areas

​

A Comprehensive HR Audit looks across the seven areas where small businesses carry the most risk:

​

• Compliance & Legal Risk

• Policies & Documentation

• Hiring & Onboarding

• Pay & Benefits

• Performance & Employee Relations

• Offboarding & Terminations

• HR Systems & Recordkeeping

Through interviews, document review, and a look at how the work actually happens day to day, we assess each area and flag where you're exposed.

​

Custom HR Audit Reports with Actionable Recommendations

Your audit ends in a clear, written report that highlights what needs attention and gives you practical recommendations — prioritized by urgency and business impact. Each one is tailored to your size, industry, and specific challenges, so the guidance fits your business. And we explain everything in plain, non-technical language, so you know exactly what steps to take next.
