The primary purpose of Human Resource Auditing is to facilitate the management of people as valued organizational resources. This study sought to assess the practice of HRAudits, their scope and their range which could help to shed further light on the state of HRM (human resource management) in Mauritius through a semi-qualitative approach, relying essentially on structured, face-to-face interviews, phone and email surveys, as well as secondary data available from the annual financial reports of non-participants. The findings, subsequent to research, revealed a deficient implementation of HRM practices and a general ambivalence about the concept of HR Auditing in Mauritius. Although some form of auditing of the HR function is done, evidence for HR Audits per se is scant (Hyland and Verrault, 2006). However, HR audits provide an effective means to relate organizational performance and HRM, and should therefore be an integral part of the HR package in organizations.
