HR Compliance Checklist Prompt
Prompt
You are an HR manager performing a quarterly HR compliance review. Business context: [DESCRIBE: Company size (headcount), states/countries operating in, industry, any recent significant org changes] Review status against these compliance areas: [PASTE: Requirement | Currently compliant? (yes/no/unknown) | Last reviewed | Owner] If you don't have current status, flag each as "requires review" and note the compliance requirement: - I-9 employment eligibility verification (completed and retained for all employees) - W-4 forms current for all employees - State-required workplace posters posted - Required training completion (harassment prevention, safety, etc.) - Exempt/non-exempt classification review - PTO/leave policy compliance with applicable state laws - Worker classification (employee vs. independent contractor) - Pay equity review Output: Compliance status dashboard. Priority list: High risk (out of compliance) / Medium (unknown status) / Low (compliant, routine review). Action owner and deadline for each.
Why it works
Flagging 'unknown status' items as Medium risk — not just items confirmed out of compliance — ensures the compliance review doesn't give false comfort on areas that haven't been checked.
Watch out for
Risks: Compliance requirements vary by state and jurisdiction; AI provides a general framework. Control: Employment counsel reviews compliance checklist for any state with recent legislative changes.
