HR Compliance Audit.
We review your compliance across the labour laws that apply to you: the four Labour Codes and their rules, PF and ESI, Professional Tax, Labour Welfare Fund, Shops and Establishments, POSH and contract labour. You receive a location-by-location report of gaps, the risk each carries and a practical plan to close them, which matters now that registers, wage definitions and forms have changed.
Typically 2–4 weeks, depending on the number of locations and states and how quickly records are shared.
A partner — a chartered accountant or company secretary — from the first call to sign-off.
Based on your situation, and fixed in writing before any work starts.
