Abstract: An HR audit is a critical tool for enhancing the overall efficiency and effectiveness of human resource management within an organization. It provides a structured review of HR policies, practices, and procedures, ensuring that they are aligned with both organizational goals and legal compliance requirements. This study examines the role of HR audits and their influence on employee job satisfaction in Ahmedabad’s organized retail sector. HR audits serve as a comprehensive tool for evaluating the effectiveness of HR practices and ensuring compliance with policies and regulations. Through a systematic evaluation, this study explores the perception of HR managers towards the impact of HR audits on employee job satisfaction and investigates the association between HR managers' demographic profiles and their views on the audit's effects. A sample of 128 HR managers from Ahmedabad was surveyed to assess their opinions. Findings indicate that HR managers believe HR audits help identify policy gaps, enhance HR efficiency, and directly contribute to improving job satisfaction. Additionally, a significant association was found between demographic factors such as gender, education, and experience and the managers' perception of the effect of HR audits. The research highlights the critical role HR audits play in improving organizational practices and fostering a more satisfied workforce in the retail sector.
