Like any other function, the performance and contribution of HR should be audited regularly. The questions to which answers should be obtained are:
DEFINITION-HR AUDIT
The Human Resources (HR)
Audit is a process of examining policies, procedures, documentation, systems, and practices with respect to an organizations HR functions
PURPOSE-HR AUDIT
The purpose of the audit is to reveal the strengths and weaknesses
in the human resources system, and any issues needing resolution. The audit works best when the focus is on analyzing and improving the HR function in the organization. The audit itself is a diagnostic tool, not a prescriptive instrument. It will help you identify what you are missing or need to improve, but it cant tell you what you need to do to address these issues. It is most useful when an organization is ready to act on the findings, and to evolve its HR function to a level where its full potential to support the organizations mission and objectives can be realized.

team reviews each major section and notes disparities between paper (what we think or say we do) and practice (what we actually do, as revealed by the answers to the audit questions). This can then be compared to best practice (what we should do to best support our organizations mission).
workplan with a timeline, accountability, and deliverables should be created after the team reviews the completed audit and identifies areas where improvement is needed. Follow-up and review should be a regular management function, performed on an ongoing basis.
Conclusion
HRIS and Hr Auditing systems adopted by most of the organisation to make the work easier and transparent for the organisation.
