HR Audit and Diagnostics

What HR Audit & Diagnostics Covers

Statutory & Labour Compliance Review

We evaluate your organisation against current labour laws, reviewing:

  • Employment contracts and appointment letters
  • Working hours, overtime, and weekly limits
  • Minimum wage requirements
  • SSF registration and monthly contribution status
  • Leave and holiday practices
  • Bonus provisions
  • Mandatory policies under Nepali law
  • Workplace safety and welfare
  • Labour union considerations (if applicable)

This review is fully evidence-based, ensuring clarity on where you meet legal standards and where risks exist.

HR Policy & Documentation Review

We check the quality and completeness of all your HR documents, including:

  • HR policy manual
  • Attendance and leave procedures
  • Disciplinary process
  • Recruitment and onboarding practices
  • Employee file documentation
  • Performance management records
  • Salary structure and compensation documents

You receive a detailed list of what is missing, unclear, outdated, or misaligned with Nepali law.

Operational HR Process Assessment

We examine how HR actually functions in day-to-day operations.
This includes reviewing:

  • Recruitment workflow
  • Onboarding experience
  • File and record management
  • Payroll coordination and SSF activities
  • Exit and clearance process
  • Grievance handling
  • Consistency between written policy and actual practice

This reveals operational gaps that affect efficiency and employee experience.

Workforce & Organisation Diagnostics

Beyond compliance and processes, we assess wider organisational factors that shape HR performance:

  • Role clarity and job descriptions
  • Organisational structure and reporting flow
  • Manpower planning
  • Leadership and communication
  • Engagement indicators
  • Turnover trends
  • Workplace culture and environment

This helps identify why issues like high turnover, low morale, or misalignment occur.
