review your HR foundations
before an issue becomes a problem.

Get clarity on your employment documentation, compliance risk and people systems with our HR ESSENTIALS REVIEW - a structured diagnostic trusted by growing businesses to reduce risk and build confidence in everyday people management decisions.

Most people challenges aren’t unexpected, they’re predictable. But when compliance, risk or people systems slip, leads can get reactive, frustrated and exposed. The Annual HR Essentials Review gives you a clear view of where you stand, where the risks are, and what matters most. Without complicated legal jargon or guesswork.

WHAT IS IT?

The HR Essentials Review is a high-level diagnostic of your current HR documentation, contracts and core practices. We identify risk, prioritise focus areas, and deliver practical recommendations you can act on, in plain language.
It covers six core categories related to compliance:
  • Fair Work and Modern Awards,
  • Employment Agreements,
  • Payroll and Record Keeping,
  • General Compliance,
  • Policies and Procedures, and
  • Leave Entitlements.
You’ll receive a structured diagnostic report which includes:
  • An indicative risk dashboard (High / Medium / Low),
  • Category-by-category observations and findings,
  • Prioritised people focus areas, and
  • Practical recommendations for implementation, based on assessed risk and urgency, based

NOTE: An annual HR Essentials Review is included at no additional cost as part of our Essentials and Growth People Partner Plans. If you want more structure, clarity or support beyond a one-off review, our People Partner Plans may be a better fit for your business. Find out more here.
