HR Risk Audit · Colorado small businesses

You run the business.
What HR risks are hiding in it?

When nobody owns HR, small gaps pile up: missing records, inconsistent pay practices, policies that don't match reality, and terminations with no paper trail. We'll review what you have and tell you what to fix first.

The outcome

A clear picture. A practical plan.

You don't need a stack of generic policies. You need to know where your current practices leave you exposed.

Find the gaps

We review selected records, policies, and day-to-day practices against the scope agreed at kickoff.

Know what matters

Receive a written findings report organized by priority, with plain-language explanations.

Decide what to fix

Walk through the findings together and get a practical action list you can use with or without ongoing HR support.

What we look at

The basics that get businesses in trouble.

The final sample and scope depend on your headcount, locations, and concerns. Common review areas include:

  • Employee recordsPersonnel files, required forms, and recordkeeping habits.
  • Hiring and onboardingOffer documents, I-9 processes, and how new employees start.
  • Pay and timekeepingClassification, overtime, breaks, tips where applicable, and time records.
  • Policies and leaveHandbook status, actual practices, and leave administration.
  • Manager documentationPerformance issues, complaints, investigations, and terminations.
  • Operational handoffsWho makes people decisions and what happens when an issue escalates.

The audit is a scoped HR review, not legal advice or a guarantee that every issue will be found. If a matter needs legal counsel, we'll flag it clearly.
