EMPLOYMENT COMPLIANCE

All small businesses must adhere to a multitude of labor and employment laws to maintain compliance. From interview protocols to paycheck distribution, virtually, every HR-related activity is governed by specific legal requirements. As an employer you must ensure that your company’s policies and actions align with labor laws in your specific country, state, or municipality. Laws also vary based on the number of employees within an organization.

An employer’s size significantly influences which federal laws apply to their organization, including those related to employment, health care, leaves, safety, privacy, and finances.

Determining an employer’s size involves several factors, such as the types of employees and their locations, as well as specific legal requirements. Each law has its own criteria for determining employer size. The federal law table below provides a broad overview of key sized-based federal employment laws. It does not cover state or local laws that may be applicable to your organization or industry specific laws.

When you work in accordance with legal requirements, you are giving your business more legitimacy while protecting your employees. It also protects you from scandals, fines, and liabilities that may damage your business’s reputation.
