HR
Assessment Identifies Your Immediate HR Priorities
HRI has developed strategies
to assess your most pressing human resource issues. Our HR Assessment report
is a valuable tool for any company. It defines a baseline of how your company
has addressed human resources needs and requirements. The process is designed
to accomplish three objectives:
- Describes
the current state of your company’s human resources in terms of each
HR function and its priority to the company
- Provides
recommendations to address priority and other areas you would like
- Proposes
a plan to meet the HR needs identified in the audit.
The Assessment
covers three levels: 1) BASIC – the most comprehensive, identifies the
areas of possible liability / exposure from legal or government compliance
perspective; 2) VALUES – areas that instill the values of the organization
to the employee such as commitment to executive and professional development.
Values communicate a sense of the leader’s values and commitment to
making this an attractive place to work; and 3) COMPETITIVE – areas
seen as a competitive advantage such as the ability to attract and retain
the best employees with turnaround times and cost per hire results that are
below industry standards.
The example below would
result from meetings with key personnel, touring the facility and follow-up
conversations to clarify key points and review existing company handbook and
policy documents.
