SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you evaluate an offer letter and any restrictive covenants by running a jurisdiction check and a covenant enforceability review so hiring paperwork is ready for attorney review.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Jurisdiction-based hiring review: Identifies the work jurisdiction (including remote/hybrid logic) and checks it against the configured jurisdiction table for required escalations.
  • Misclassification and exemption screening: Verifies exempt vs non-exempt classification using researched salary thresholds and duties tests for the specific hire.
  • Restrictive covenant review with enforcement guardrails: Reviews non-compete, non-solicit, confidentiality/trade secrets, and IP/confidentiality terms with researched, cited primary sources and currency validation.
  • Jurisdiction-specific compliance checks: Covers pay transparency, ban-the-box, salary-history limits, and required notices applicable to the hire’s location.

Quick Start

Review the attached offer letter and tell me whether it is clear to send or needs attorney escalation based on the candidate’s work jurisdiction.

FAQPage Schema
How do I review an offer letter for restrictive covenants and jurisdiction compliance?

To review an offer letter for restrictive covenants and jurisdiction compliance, load the practice-level configuration and follow a jurisdiction→classification→covenants→requirements workflow to produce a structured output gated for attorney review.

What does an employment classification check involve for exempt vs non-exempt hires?

An employment classification check verifies exempt vs non-exempt status by researching salary thresholds and duties tests for the specific hire and work jurisdiction to screen for misclassification risks in the offer letter.

How do I verify non-compete enforceability and required notices for a remote employee's work jurisdiction?

To verify non-compete enforceability and required notices for a remote employee, the review identifies the work jurisdiction using remote/hybrid logic, checks it against a configured jurisdiction table, and reviews covenants with cited primary sources.

Can I check pay transparency, salary-history limits, and background-check constraints before sending an offer?

Yes, you can check pay-transparency, salary-history, and background-check constraints, as the review covers jurisdiction-specific compliance checks and required notices applicable to the hire's location to determine if the offer is clear or needs escalation.

Does the restrictive covenant review output replace the need for an attorney?

No, the restrictive covenant review output does not replace an attorney, as it specifically produces a structured output gated for attorney review to ensure hiring paperwork is ready for final legal escalation.
