SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Prevents wrongful-termination, retaliation, discrimination, and wage-and-hour exposure by running a structured high-risk review before a termination decision is finalized.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • High-risk flag scan: Detects issues such as recent complaints, protected leave, protected-class timing, whistleblowing, thin documentation, comparators, handbook/contract promises, and potential exempt misclassification.
  • Jurisdiction-specific requirements: Researches and cites rules for final pay timing, PTO payout, required termination notices, and WARN/mini-WARN obligations when applicable.
  • Severance and release readiness: Applies severance/release considerations with OWBPA/older-worker protections and state-specific waiver constraints, ensuring the right consideration/revocation framework is used.
  • Escalation and documentation checks: Forces escalation when high-risk flags fire and verifies the “paper trail” that supports the stated reason for termination.

When do I need to research WARN Act or mini-WARN obligations for a termination?▼

You must research WARN or mini-WARN obligations when applicable during a termination review, ensuring jurisdiction-specific notice requirements are cited and verified before proceeding with the termination.

What escalation triggers should I watch for during an employment law risk assessment?▼

Employment law risk assessment escalation triggers fire when high-risk flags are detected, forcing escalation and verifying the paper trail that supports the stated reason for termination.

Can I review a termination decision without complete documentation or comparators data?▼

Reviewing a termination decision without complete documentation is risky because termination reviews specifically flag thin documentation and comparators as high-risk issues requiring escalation before proceeding.
