SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

International hiring projects fail at scale when legal, tax, finance, and HR each own only part of the picture, causing unclear structure decisions, missed country requirements, and stalled execution across sessions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • EOR vs. entity decision framing: Produces a structured, cross-functional trade-off document that lets CFO and tax counsel make the choice without the skill trying to decide tax law.
  • Cross-functional trigger planning: Drafts exactly what Tax, Finance/Payroll, HR/Total Rewards, and outside counsel must do, including the specific questions legal should ask them.
  • Outside-counsel briefing request + persistent tracker: Generates a country-specific briefing agenda (with verification language) and writes an expansion tracker YAML that persists across sessions, so open items can be updated via subsequent expansion updates.

Quick Start

Run /employment-legal:expansion-kickoff and answer the intake prompts for country, roles, headcount, timing, and current state (entity/EOR/engagement), then follow the generated outside-counsel briefing request and tracker outputs.

FAQPage Schema
How do I plan international expansion and decide between an EOR vs entity?

International expansion planning requires structuring an EOR vs entity trade-off document for CFO and tax counsel review. This approach frames cross-functional inputs into an actionable legal and tax workstream without attempting to decide tax law internally.

What is the best way to coordinate cross-functional workflow for global hiring?

Cross-functional workflow for global hiring maps specific triggers for Tax, Finance, Payroll, and HR teams. It defines exactly what each department must execute and outlines the specific questions legal needs to ask them.

How do I brief outside counsel for employment compliance in a new country?

Briefing outside counsel for employment compliance requires generating a country-specific agenda with verification language. This routes all substantive local-law determination to external legal counsel through a structured briefing request.

How do I track open items for international expansion across multiple sessions?

Tracking international expansion open items across sessions requires persisting execution state into a YAML file. This persistent tracker allows subsequent updates to modify and maintain the country-specific expansion workstream over time.

What information do I need to start employment planning for overseas hiring?

Employment planning for overseas hiring requires intake data including the target country, roles, headcount, timing, and current state. This initial information drives the generation of the outside-counsel briefing and expansion tracker.
