    Employee satisfaction refers to an employees

    general attitude toward his or her job.

    When employee needs are unmet, turnover,

    absenteeism, and union activity are more likely.

    To learn how well employee needs are met, theaudit team gathers data from workers.

    The team collects information about wages,

    benefits, supervisory practices, career planning

    assistance, and other dimensions of job

    1. Interviewswith employees and managersare one source of information about human

    resource activity. Employees and managers

    comments help the audit team find that

    need improvement.Another useful source of information is the

    exit interview. Exit interview are conducted

    with departing employees to learn theirviews of the organization.

    70

  • 8/12/2019 unit 1-HRM

    71/77

    Because interviews are time-consuming, costly,

    and often to only few people, many humanresource departments use questionnaires. Through

    questionnaire surveys, a more comprehensive

    picture of employee treatment can be developed.

    Questionnaire may also lead to more candidanswers than face-to-face interviews.

    - employee attitude about supervisors

    - Employee attitude about their jobs

    - Perceived effectiveness of human resource

    department

    71

  • 8/12/2019 unit 1-HRM

    72/77

    Not all the issues of interest to human resource

    audit are revealed through interviews orquestionnaires. Sometimes insight can be

    obtained by an analysis of historical records,

    such as:

    - Safety and health records

    - Grievances records- Compensation studies

    - Scrap rates

    - Turnover and absenteeism records

    - Selection records- Affirmative action plan records

    - Training program records

    72

  • 8/12/2019 unit 1-HRM

    73/77

    Outside comparisons give the audit team a

    perspective against which their firms activitiescan be judged.

    Through Department of Labor, industryassociation, professional association numerous

    statistics and report are compiled.These organizations regularly publishes

    information about future employmentopportunities, employee turnover rates, work

    force projection, area wage and salary survey,work force demography, accident rates, andother data that can serve as benchmark forcomparing internal information.

    73

  • 8/12/2019 unit 1-HRM

    74/77

    Findings of research are used todeveloped a picture of the organizations resource

    activities. For this information to be useful, it iscompiled into audit report.

    The audit report is a comprehensivedescription of human resource activities thatincludes both commendations for effective practicesand recommendations for improving practices thatare less effective.
