• Human resource functions have traditionally played a service role to compliment their functional activities.• An adaptation of the Parasuraman Service

Quality (1990) model is used to measure service quality gaps, where HR is the service provider, and line and employees are the customers. • The purpose of auditing service behaviours is

to identify the critical service delivery gaps.
