What problem does it solve? As a business hires and grows, employment laws attach silently at headcount thresholds, and misclassifying a worker or missing a required policy creates real financial and legal exposure. This Skill identifies which laws likely apply, surfaces compliance gaps, and routes every actual employment decision to an attorney or HR professional. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Applicable-Law Mapping: Determines which employment laws likely apply based on headcount, annual sales, and states of operation, with all thresholds flagged as illustrative for re-verification. - Worker Classification Diagnostic: Applies Right-to-Control and Economic-Realities tests to flag misclassification risk, defaulting toward employee status when company control exists. - Policy Gap & Multistate Checks: Audits handbooks, anti-harassment training, overtime tracking, signed agreements, and remote-worker jurisdiction issues including PEO/EOR joint-employer risk. - Use Case: A founder at 14 employees is about to hire a 15th plus an out-of-state designer as a 1099 contractor. The Skill flags the anti-discrimination threshold triggered at 15 employees, leans the designer toward employee classification, and escalates both decisions to counsel. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to run an employment compliance scan before hiring our 15th employee and onboarding an out-of-state contractor.
