Ontario workplace regulations governing employment relations are complex and constantly evolving. Non-compliance with legal obligations exposes an employer to risk of both civil and statutory liability as well as harm to its corporate reputation. This webinar explores how conducting internal HR audits will identify areas of legal non-compliance as well as employer best-practices that will help reduce risks.

Learning Objectives:

<  Understanding an employer’s legal compliance obligations

<  Identifying the subject matter appropriate for an internal HR audit

<  Key considerations for developing and executing an internal HR audit

<  Identifying post-audit reporting and action items

Who should attend:

Human resource professionals of all levels.
