Your HR Audit

www.yourhr911.com

 

What is an HR Audit?

 

  • The purpose of conducting a Human Resources audit is to evaluate your company’s existing HR policies and procedures and to identify opportunities for improvement. The audit helps to establish where you are doing well today and where there is potential trouble in the future. It is a systematic analysis of where you currently stand in your human resources practices while ensuring that government laws, regulations and company policies are being followed. Please note: this audit and its findings are provided for informational purposes only and are not intended to be legal advice. While this audit and the advice that it provides will be reviewed by a qualified employment attorney who is a part of our staff, we are not providing formal legal advice to you. You will need to have your own qualified employment attorney review this document.

 

Why do an Audit?

 

  • To be sure that the people who work for you are being appropriately utilized.
  • To review your compliance with a myriad of administrative and governmental rules and regulations that are changing all too often.
  • To instill a sense of confidence in management and the human resources function that it is well managed and prepared to meet potential challenges.
  • To maintain or enhance the organization’s and the department’s reputation in the community that it is compliant with the federal and state.
  • To perform a "due diligence" review for shareholders or potential investors/owners so that their investment is properly protected from an HR viewpoint.
  • To be sure that the people who work at your organization are treated fairly and with respect; that information is communicated appropriately to all who should know.

HR Out of the Box

www.hroutofthebox.com


Hiring and managing your people can take a lot of time and energy. This site is an on-line human resource platform and system created to increase productivity, better engage employees in the business, create individualized learning opportunities, and involve everyone in making the business just a little bit better.


There are several important reasons why you should consider using Your HR Solutions Human Resource process:


  • Each part is linked to every other part - You don't have to reinvent the wheel when you go from one part to another. They are all linked together.
  • The process is industry specific. Most job descriptions are bland useless words that have little impact in the real world. This was created with industry experts - the men and women who work on these jobs every day. They have told us what they do and that knowledge is available to you now. It is just common sense to tell your employees what they have to do in terms that they can understand so they can do the job your customers expect of your company.
  • You will have your own job site within "HR Out of the Box". Here you can tailor, modify, and change the industry standards to the way you do business in your home town. The job description - which describes the job exactly - then links to the learning checklist - which trains the person to do the job the right way - which automatically creates the performance and development plan - which helps you and your employee discuss how they are doing on the job based on what the job description told them they had to do - both praise their work and correct their mistakes where it is appropriate.
  • It is all on the Internet. It is there 24 hours a day; 7 days a week whenever you want it. It combines high-quality HR tools with any time, any place access interactivity.
  • The site is set up to make it easy to work. The help screens are written in English … not technological "globbly-de-gook" or computer jargon. It will walk you through the process one step at a time.

 

We want to make the whole human resource process simple to work. We want to make it easy to understand. We want to allow your people to work more effectively and more efficiently. That is why this site has been developed.

 

We are proud to introduce this new platform for human resources.
There are 3 major components of the site:

 

Job Descriptions (JD) – industry specific descriptions of what a person is supposed to do on the job… not only the tasks to be accomplished, but also the standards and measurements of how that is suppose to happen. Click Here to see sample.

 

Learning Checklists (LCL) tells the employee exactly what they are supposed to know to do their job. The content is directly linked to the job description so that people know precisely what they have to learn to do the job correctly. This training outline is organized to deliver the most effective orientation to the job. The LCL is a job specific training process that helps your employee learn the details of how to do their job in the most effective and efficient manner. Click Here to see a sample.

 

The Performance and Development Plans (PDP) – These very useful performance discussions are now available based on what the Job Description said and what the Learning Checklist told them they had to learn. It is intended to be a performance dialogue system and is designed to take the “pain” out of the appraisal. This process reduces the normal stress that comes with a “review” or an “appraisal”. Instead both you and your employee together create a plan for improved employee performance and a plan for their development – a mutual performance and development plan. In fact, it makes it easier to talk with your people about how they are doing, because it is so clear about what needs to be done. Click Here to see a sample.

 

Technology does not have to be hard, but as with anything that is new and different, it is not always obvious what you have to do. At Your HR Solutions we want to make this friendly and useful. We will walk you through each step of the way to be sure you know what you have to do.
