Compliance?
What is HR
Compliance
HR Compliance is adhering to federal,
state, and local government regulations,
relevant laws that ensure your
organization follows the most current
labor and employment laws.
HR leads this effort to ensure that your
organization's actions and decisions
related to employment are lawful and
ethical to protect the rights and well-
being of employees while mitigating
legal and regulatory risks.

Recruiting & Hiring
Practices
Compliance in the recruiting/hiring
process
Background Checks: must comply with Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and all state laws. Offer must be accepted before background
is initiated and must get candidate’s written consent.
Fair and Consistent Hiring Procedures: use standard processes to mitigate bias, use uniformed screening criteria to assess candidate’s
qualifications/skills, use structured interviews (STAR: Situation, Task, Action, Result) to mitigate bias by highlighting skills,
accomplishments and achievements.
Job Advertisements and Recruitment Strategies: ensure that all aspects of the recruiting process, including job postings, outreach
efforts, and candidate selection methods, adhere to relevant laws, regulations, and best practices.
Non-Discrimination Policies: ensure fair and unbiased treatment of all candidates throughout the recruitment process. Emphasize the
organization's commitment to equal employment opportunity and prohibiting discrimination based on factors such as race, color,
religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, genetic information, or any other characteristic protected by law.
Background Checks
Offer must be accepted before background check is
initiated
Candidate must agree in writing to have background
check initiated
Know the local and state laws to understand what you
can consider in making your decision
If a misdemeanor or felony comes back, does it affect
the job the person is being offered? How dated is it?
Wage and
Hour
Compliance
Wage & Hour
Compliance
• Failure to Pay Minimum Wage (check state laws)
• Employee Misclassification
• Exempt/non-exempt
• W2/Contractor
• Failure to Pay Overtime
• FLSA requires employers to pay non-exempt employees time and a
half for every hour worked in excess of 40 hours in one workweek
• Employees classified as exempt (executive, administrative &
professional employees receiving a salary) are not eligible for
overtime pay
Failure to Provide Paid Sick Time
• There’s a movement among states requiring employers to pay part-
time hourly employees paid sick time. Check state laws for
compliance.
Job
Protected
Leaves
FMLA: Family & Medical Leave Act. FMLA provides eligible employees with up to 12 weeks of unpaid,
job-protected leave per year for qualifying reasons, such as the birth or adoption of a child, caring for a
family member with a serious health condition, or the employee's own serious health condition.
FMLA also provides certain military family leave entitlements.
PFMLA: Paid Family & Medical Leave Act. Some states have enacted paid family leave laws that provide
eligible employees with paid time off to care for a new child, a seriously ill family member, or to address certain
military family needs. PFL laws vary by state in terms of eligibility criteria, benefit amounts, and qualifying
reasons for leave. Check state law.
Prenatal Personal Leave (2025): Beginning January 1, 2025, New York employers will be required to provide employees with 20
hours of paid “prenatal personal leave” during any 52-week calendar period to attend prenatal medical appointments during or
related to pregnancy. New York is the first state in the country to mandate paid leave specifically for pregnant employees.
Maternity Leave: Maternity Leave can be covered under FMLA, PFMLA, state and local laws. Employer may
offer additional time-off benefits.
Military Leave: The Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) provides job
protection for employees who leave their jobs to serve in the uniformed services, such as the U.S. Armed Forces,
Reserves, National Guard, or other uniformed services. USERRA requires employers to reemploy returning
service members in their previous positions or comparable positions with the same seniority, status, and pay.
Domestic Violence Leave: Some states have enacted laws that provide job-protected leave for employees who are
victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking, allowing them to take time off to seek medical attention,
obtain legal assistance, or address safety concerns. Check state law.
Job Protected Leaves
Data
Protection
and Privacy
Data Protection is Paramount
Legal Compliance: HR departments are entrusted with sensitive employee
information. Compliance with data protection and privacy laws is essential to
ensure that all employee data is collected, processed, and stored in accordance
with legal requirements, such as the GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, SOC2, and other
relevant laws.
Trust and Confidentiality: Maintaining the privacy and security of employee data
builds trust between employees and the organization, fostering a positive
workplace culture and employee morale.
Risk Management: Failure to protect employee data can expose organizations to
significant legal, financial, and reputational risks. Data breaches or violations of
data protection laws can result in regulatory fines, lawsuits, damage to brand
reputation, and loss of employee trust and confidence.
Employee Rights and Fairness: Employees have a right to privacy and control
over their personal information. Protecting employee data safeguards their rights
and ensures fairness in HR practices, such as recruitment, performance
management, compensation, and benefits administration.
Compliance Audits and Investigations: Regulatory authorities
may conduct audits or investigations to ensure compliance with
data protection and privacy laws. There must be data protection
measures put in place to demonstrate compliance and mitigate
legal risks should there be an audit or investigation.
Global Transmission of Data: If you have a global workforce, HR
may need to transfer employee data across borders. Compliance
with data protection laws, particularly regarding data transfers, is
critical for legal compliance.
Employee Well-being and Safety: Protecting employee data
safeguards against identity theft, fraud, or misuse of personal
information. Employees are more likely to feel secure and valued
when they trust that their data is handled responsibly by the
organization. Should there be any breach of data, employees
need to be immediately made aware and measures put in place
to support them.
Employee
Relations
Employee Relations
in HR Compliance
Employee relations in HR compliance
involve promoting a culture of fairness,
transparency, and legal compliance
while addressing workplace issues in a
timely manner and maintaining
positive employee relations.
Labor Laws Compliance: Compliance with federal, state. and local labor laws and regulations governing
the employer-employee relationship.
Employee Policies and Procedures: Develop and enforce employee policies and procedures to ensure
compliance with legal requirements and promote fair treatment of employees.
Union Relations: With unionized workforces, employee relations involve managing relationships with
labor unions in compliance with collective bargaining agreements and labor laws.
Conflict Resolution: Resolving conflicts and disputes between employees or between employees and
management in a fair and equitable manner.
Employee Engagement and Communication: Employee engagement is promoted by implementing
employee feedback channels, conducting employee surveys, and creating strategies to enhance
employee morale, motivation, and overall satisfaction.
Performance Management: Employee relations involve managing performance-related issues in
compliance with legal requirements and company policies. HR should have a performance management
process in place that is accessible to employees so that they are aware.
Termination and Separation of Employment: HR manages employee terminations and separations in
compliance with legal requirements and company policies. (Check states for final payroll processing and
payout of accrued unused vacation days.)
Recordkeeping and Documentation: Employee relations activities require accurate recordkeeping and
documentation to demonstrate compliance with legal requirements and company policies. (HRIS systems
provide this compliance component.)
Employee Relations
Diversity,
Equity,
Inclusion and
BELONGING
HR practices and policies should support diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB).
Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Compliance: HR must comply with EEO laws and
regulations that prohibit discrimination based on protected characteristics such as race, color,
religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, genetic information, and gender identity.
Affirmative Action Compliance: Federal contractors and subcontractors are subject to affirmative
action requirements and HR must ensure compliance with affirmative action obligations.
Diversity Recruitment and Retention: HR should implement strategies to attract candidates from
diverse backgrounds, review recruitment processes for potential bias, and foster an inclusive
workplace culture that values diversity and promotes belonging.
Harassment and Discrimination Prevention: HR is responsible for preventing and addressing
harassment and discrimination in the workplace.
Accessibility and Accommodations: HR ensures compliance with the Americans with Disabilities
Act (ADA) by providing reasonable accommodations to employees with disabilities and ensuring
accessibility in recruitment, hiring, training, and other HR processes. Remember: Compliance
doesn’t guarantee accessibility.

Offer must be accepted before background is initiated and must get candidate’s written consent. Fair and Consistent Hiring Procedures: use standard processes to mitigate bias, use uniformed screening criteria to assess candidate’s qualifications/skills, use structured interviews (STAR: Situation, Task, Action, Result) to mitigate bias by highlighting skills, accomplishments and achievements. Job Advertisements and Recruitment Strategies: ensure that all aspects of the recruiting process, including job postings, outreach efforts, and candidate selection methods, adhere to relevant laws, regulations, and best practices. Non-Discrimination Policies: ensure fair and unbiased treatment of all candidates throughout the recruitment process. Emphasize the organization's commitment to equal employment opportunity and prohibiting discrimination based on factors such as race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, genetic information, or any other characteristic protected by law.

Check state laws for compliance.
  • 20. FMLA: Family & Medical Leave Act. FMLA provides eligible employees with up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave per year for qualifying reasons, such as the birth or adoption of a child, caring for a family member with a serious health condition, or the employee's own serious health condition. FMLA also provides certain military family leave entitlements. PFMLA: Paid Family & Medical Leave Act. Some states have enacted paid family leave laws that provide eligible employees with paid time off to care for a new child, a seriously ill family member, or to address certain military family needs. PFL laws vary by state in terms of eligibility criteria, benefit amounts, and qualifying reasons for leave. Check state law. Prenatal Personal Leave (2025): Beginning January 1, 2025, New York employers will be required to provide employees with 20 hours of paid “prenatal personal leave” during any 52-week calendar period to attend prenatal medical appointments during or related to pregnancy. New York is the first state in the country to mandate paid leave specifically for pregnant employees. Maternity Leave: Maternity Leave can be covered under FMLA, PFMLA, state and local laws. Employer may offer additional time-off benefits. Military Leave: The Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) provides job protection for employees who leave their jobs to serve in the uniformed services, such as the U.S. Armed Forces, Reserves, National Guard, or other uniformed services. USERRA requires employers to reemploy returning service members in their previous positions or comparable positions with the same seniority, status, and pay. Domestic Violence Leave: Some states have enacted laws that provide job-protected leave for employees who are victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking, allowing them to take time off to seek medical attention, obtain legal assistance, or address safety concerns. Check state law. Job Protected Leaves
  • 22. Data Protection is Paramount Legal Compliance: HR departments are entrusted with sensitive employee information. Compliance with data protection and privacy laws is essential to ensure that all employee data is collected, processed, and stored in accordance with legal requirements, such as the GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, SOC2, and other relevant laws. Trust and Confidentiality: Maintaining the privacy and security of employee data builds trust between employees and the organization, fostering a positive workplace culture and employee morale. Risk Management: Failure to protect employee data can expose organizations to significant legal, financial, and reputational risks. Data breaches or violations of data protection laws can result in regulatory fines, lawsuits, damage to brand reputation, and loss of employee trust and confidence. Employee Rights and Fairness: Employees have a right to privacy and control over their personal information. Protecting employee data safeguards their rights and ensures fairness in HR practices, such as recruitment, performance management, compensation, and benefits administration. Compliance Audits and Investigations: Regulatory authorities may conduct audits or investigations to ensure compliance with data protection and privacy laws. There must be data protection measures put in place to demonstrate compliance and mitigate legal risks should there be an audit or investigation. Global Transmission of Data: If you have a global workforce, HR may need to transfer employee data across borders. Compliance with data protection laws, particularly regarding data transfers, is critical for legal compliance. Employee Well-being and Safety: Protecting employee data safeguards against identity theft, fraud, or misuse of personal information. Employees are more likely to feel secure and valued when they trust that their data is handled responsibly by the organization. Should there be any breach of data, employees need to be immediately made aware and measures put in place to support them.
  • 24. Employee Relations in HR Compliance Employee relations in HR compliance involve promoting a culture of fairness, transparency, and legal compliance while addressing workplace issues in a timely manner and maintaining positive employee relations.
  • 25. Labor Laws Compliance: Compliance with federal, state. and local labor laws and regulations governing the employer-employee relationship. Employee Policies and Procedures: Develop and enforce employee policies and procedures to ensure compliance with legal requirements and promote fair treatment of employees. Union Relations: With unionized workforces, employee relations involve managing relationships with labor unions in compliance with collective bargaining agreements and labor laws. Conflict Resolution: Resolving conflicts and disputes between employees or between employees and management in a fair and equitable manner. Employee Engagement and Communication: Employee engagement is promoted by implementing employee feedback channels, conducting employee surveys, and creating strategies to enhance employee morale, motivation, and overall satisfaction. Performance Management: Employee relations involve managing performance-related issues in compliance with legal requirements and company policies. HR should have a performance management process in place that is accessible to employees so that they are aware. Termination and Separation of Employment: HR manages employee terminations and separations in compliance with legal requirements and company policies. (Check states for final payroll processing and payout of accrued unused vacation days.) Recordkeeping and Documentation: Employee relations activities require accurate recordkeeping and documentation to demonstrate compliance with legal requirements and company policies. (HRIS systems provide this compliance component.) Employee Relations
  • 27. HR practices and policies should support diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB). Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Compliance: HR must comply with EEO laws and regulations that prohibit discrimination based on protected characteristics such as race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, genetic information, and gender identity. Affirmative Action Compliance: Federal contractors and subcontractors are subject to affirmative action requirements and HR must ensure compliance with affirmative action obligations. Diversity Recruitment and Retention: HR should implement strategies to attract candidates from diverse backgrounds, review recruitment processes for potential bias, and foster an inclusive workplace culture that values diversity and promotes belonging. Harassment and Discrimination Prevention: HR is responsible for preventing and addressing harassment and discrimination in the workplace. Accessibility and Accommodations: HR ensures compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) by providing reasonable accommodations to employees with disabilities and ensuring accessibility in recruitment, hiring, training, and other HR processes. Remember: Compliance doesn’t guarantee accessibility. Key aspects of HR compliance in Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging
