Employer HR Risk Review covering policies, documentation, payroll and HR processes

HR Audit & Employer HR Risk Review in Malaysia

Business risk represented by a person overlooking a steep mountain landscape to the vast valley below. 
The focus of our HR Compliance Audit is not simply on identifying what is missing. We look at whether your HR policies, processes and documentation are practical, consistent, appropriately governed and capable of supporting the way your organisation operates today. This aligns with ARCHER BAHARI’s established approach of creating HR frameworks that are usable, commercially sensible and aligned with business operations.

Ask yourself these 7 questions:

  • Are my HR policies fully up to date and comply with the latest updates to Employment law?

  • Are my employment contracts consistent and protect me and my organisation?

  • Are my HR processes clearly defined and followed across the business?

  • Are disciplinary procedures clearly defined and adequately documented to keep me safe?

  • Are payroll and statutory records in order in line with the law?

  • Is employee data properly protected and managed legally?

  • Could my HR processes, practices, procedures and governance withstand an external review by a regulatory body?
