HR compliance is important because failing to meet your legal obligations will either be unlawful or illegal and can lead to industrial disputes or tribunal claims. In some circumstances, such as allowing an employee to work during the first week after they have given birth, such failures can also become a criminal law matter.

It can of course be difficult for an organisation to ensure that all their legal obligations are continually being met. While organisations may feel confident about complying with some of their legal responsibilities, such as paying the national minimum wage, they often feel less confident about complying with others, for example ensuring they follow a fair recruitment policy that does not discriminate against someone according to equality laws. To ensure compliance, it is essential that HR are appropriately resourced to fully understand the organisation’s obligations and are able to identify areas where further action and/or training is required.
