HR Audit for Australian Business

An HR audit is a structured review of your employment contracts, policies, modern award coverage, record-keeping and Fair Work compliance, with a prioritised list of risks and fixes. Employment Star runs independent HR audits for Australian businesses and offers a free initial HR health check — so you know where you stand before issues become costly.

What an HR audit covers

  • Employment contracts — current, compliant and correctly classified (employee vs contractor).
  • Modern award coverage — right awards, classifications, rates, allowances and penalties.
  • Policies & handbook — present, up to date and lawful.
  • Record-keeping — pay records, timesheets and employee data meet Fair Work requirements.
  • Payroll & super — STP Phase 2, super and Payday Super readiness (links to a payroll audit where needed).
  • Onboarding & offboarding — compliant processes, including termination and redundancy.

Free HR health check

Not sure you need a full audit? Start with a free HR health check — a short review that flags your biggest compliance risks and tells you whether a deeper audit is worthwhile. No obligation.

What you get

A clear report: what’s compliant, what’s at risk, and a prioritised action list — plus the option for Employment Star to fix the gaps through HR consulting or ongoing outsourced HR.
