Questions
HR audit: common questions.
How much does an HR audit cost?
Price on request. The scope depends on the size of your company, and you receive a fixed-price quote in advance, so you know the cost before you sign off.
How long does an HR audit take?
For a company with 20 to 100 employees, plan on two to three weeks from document handover to report. Your effort stays small: one meeting of about 90 minutes and providing the documents. We set the timeline out in the quote.
Which documents do you need from us?
Employment contracts and policies, a selection of recent payslips, your social insurance statements and access to selected personnel files. If a template is missing, we note that as a finding. We treat every document confidentially and in line with Swiss data protection law.
What happens after the report?
We walk your management team through the results and rank the points by urgency. Then you decide what to handle internally and where you want support. If you like, clever hr takes on individual items, such as new contract templates or your ongoing payroll.
