Identify your risks, ensure best practices, and set clear actions with a streamlined HR Audit.
Most SMEs discover their HR gaps only when it’s too late and expensive to fix.
The Save Group’s HR Audit is a practical, structured review of your current people systems and processes, designed specifically for small and medium-sized businesses.
Get a clear picture of what’s working, what’s missing and where risks may exist, with actionable recommendations to strengthen your HR framework and better support your business.
Work through how your business classifies, pays and manages employees against the relevant Modern Awards and Fair Work obligations, to pinpoint where compliance gaps and risks may exist.
Explore whether the right policies are in place and up to date, covering both the documents you're required to have and those that protect your business and support your team day to day.
Discuss how your employment and contractor arrangements are set up, to identify where agreements may be missing, out of date, or inconsistent with how people are actually engaged.
Look at how employees enter and leave your business, and whether you have clear, consistent processes to bring new starters up to speed and manage departures professionally.
Talk through your approach to attracting, assessing and hiring people, including the processes and checks that support fair, consistent and compliant hiring decisions.
Assess how employee expectations, feedback, development and performance concerns are currently managed, and whether the right structure is in place to handle performance consistently.
Consider the people practices that shape engagement, workplace culture and retention, and how well you understand what keeps your team motivated and committed.
Our HR Audit is designed to be quick and easy for time-poor business owners:
We begin with a dedicated 2-hour consultation to understand your business, your team and your current people processes.
Together, we review how HR is currently managed and explore any existing concerns, challenges or areas where you would like greater confidence.
Following the consultation, you’ll receive a clear assessment of your HR practices, highlighting key risks, gaps and priority areas.
You’ll know what needs attention and where improvements can be made.
We then work through the findings with you and turn them into a practical roadmap.
You’ll know what should be addressed first, what can be improved over time, and what actions will help create stronger HR foundations for your business.
For many small and growing businesses, HR systems develop gradually as the team expands and new situations arise. Contracts, policies and internal processes are often added over time rather than reviewed as one complete system.
This can create gaps that are difficult to identify from inside the business and may increase compliance risks, create people management challenges and make future growth more difficult.
Outdated or inconsistent documentation and processes can increase exposure to workplace disputes, claims or penalties.
HR systems that worked for five employees may not work effectively when your business grows to 15, 30 or 50 people.
Poorly defined processes can make employee disputes, performance concerns and sudden exits harder to manage.
Identifying problems early is easier than trying to resolve them after a dispute or compliance issue has occurred.
Australian employment law has changed substantially in the last three years. Most small business contracts and policies have not kept up.
