ELLA® is a management tool that helps employers detect hidden problems, develop positive employee relations, implement risk reduction strategies, benchmark best practices, and prioritize corrective measures. ELLA® is designed on the premise that employers can't get the right answers if they don't ask the right questions. ELLA® first provides employers with the right questions, then gives them the ability to self-audit their responses.

SHRM Book Summary
The Employment Labor Law Audit (ELLA) is an invaluable tool for auditing many aspects of the HR function. It is especially useful because, as you answer a series of questions on a subject, you can look and see why the question is important, what law it applies to, and why it matters if you’ve answered the question positively or negatively. An example would be a question on drug testing candidates for positions. You can check to see why the question was asked, and what the outcomes might be if you decide not to do drug testing. It doesn’t say you should be doing the testing, that’s your decision. But it tells you why you should consider doing it.
This book covers all of the legal aspects of HR. It provides a valuable cross-check, even if you believe your HR department is doing most things right.
