An independent personnel audit is a comprehensive audit of the processes and documents of the personnel department for compliance with the norms of legislation and records management. Unlike internal audit, which is authorized by a company employee, external or independent audit is entrusted to outside specialists - HR auditors or profile agencies.
This service is essentially the "younger sister" of the accounting audit and should not be underestimated, because an independent audit will help to identify defects in time and eliminate the risks of claims, labor disputes and possible fines.
