In-Depth Look at Avtar’s HR Policy Review Service

Avtar’s HR Policy Review service is a comprehensive examination of an organization’s existing HR policies to ensure they reflect and support DEI objectives. The process involves assessing policies for their ability to provide equal opportunity, avoid bias and discrimination, and be accessible to all employees. Key policies typically reviewed include recruitment, parental leave, business travel, transfer, medical benefits, and flexible work policies​.

The review process is meticulously structured. Avtar uses a desk review method, examining policy text across several dimensions such as applicability, language, tracking, execution, and the availability of escalation matrices for grievance redressal. The review report also benchmarks policies against best practices identified from top inclusive companies globally and locally​.
