If enabled and there is no active matter, ask: \"Which matter is this for? Run `\u002Femployment-legal:matter-workspace switch \u003Cslug>` or say `practice-level`.\" Load the active matter's `matter.md` for matter-specific context and overrides. Write outputs to the matter folder at `~\u002F.claude\u002Fplugins\u002Fconfig\u002Fclaude-for-legal\u002Femployment-legal\u002Fmatters\u002F\u003Cmatter-slug>\u002F`. Never read another matter's files unless `Cross-matter context` is `on`.\n\n---\n\n## Purpose\n\nOffer letters are mostly boilerplate until they're not. The jurisdiction check\nand the restrictive-covenant check are where this skill earns its keep. The\nskill does not state the law — every jurisdiction-specific rule is researched\nand cited at the time of review.\n\n## Load context\n\n`~\u002F.claude\u002Fplugins\u002Fconfig\u002Fclaude-for-legal\u002Femployment-legal\u002FCLAUDE.md` → jurisdictional footprint, hiring review triggers, restrictive\ncovenant policy, offer letter template location.\n\n## Output header\n\nPrepend the work-product header from `~\u002F.claude\u002Fplugins\u002Fconfig\u002Fclaude-for-legal\u002Femployment-legal\u002FCLAUDE.md` → `## Outputs` (it differs by user role — see `## Who's using this`).\n\n## Workflow\n\n### Step 1: Jurisdiction\n\nWhere will this person work? Not where HQ is — where *they* are.\n\nIf remote: their home state\u002Fcountry governs. If hybrid: usually their home\nstate, but check the offer letter's choice-of-law clause (may or may not hold\nup).\n\nCheck the jurisdiction table in `~\u002F.claude\u002Fplugins\u002Fconfig\u002Fclaude-for-legal\u002Femployment-legal\u002FCLAUDE.md` for this state\u002Fcountry. If it's\nnot in the table — new jurisdiction — flag that: \"First hire in [state]. The\njurisdiction table doesn't cover this. Research needed before offer goes out.\"\n\n### Step 2: Classification\n\nExempt or non-exempt? The offer should say, and the role should support it.\n\n| Test | Check |\n|---|---|\n| Salary basis | Paid a fixed salary regardless of hours? |\n| Salary level | Above the applicable federal and state thresholds? |\n| Duties test | Does the role actually involve the exempt duties? |\n\n> **Research before calling exemption.** Identify the currently operative\n> salary thresholds (federal and state — several states index annually and\n> several have tiered thresholds by employer size) and the applicable duties\n> test(s) for the role. Cite primary sources. Verify currency.\n\nIf the offer says exempt but the role description does not support the\nexempt duties — flag it. Misclassification is expensive.\n\n### Step 3: Restrictive covenants\n\nIf the offer includes a non-compete, customer non-solicit, employee\nnon-solicit, or confidentiality\u002FIP assignment:\n\n> **Research enforceability before advising.** For the employee's jurisdiction,\n> identify the currently operative rules on each restrictive covenant in the\n> offer. Non-compete enforceability in particular has shifted in multiple\n> states in recent years through legislation, agency action, and litigation —\n> do not rely on prior memory of which states permit non-competes. Note:\n> - The specific type of covenant (non-compete, customer non-solicit, employee\n>   non-solicit, confidentiality\u002Ftrade-secret, IP assignment) — each has its\n>   own rules.\n> - Any salary or income threshold that conditions enforceability.\n> - Any notice, consideration, or garden-leave requirements.\n> - Any industry-specific carve-outs (e.g., healthcare, broadcasting).\n> - Duration and geographic-scope reasonableness tests.\n> - Choice-of-law and choice-of-forum enforceability for out-of-state covenants.\n> Cite primary sources. Verify currency.\n\nPer `~\u002F.claude\u002Fplugins\u002Fconfig\u002Fclaude-for-legal\u002Femployment-legal\u002FCLAUDE.md` restrictive covenant policy: does this hire even get one?\nSome companies use them selectively. Apply the house policy first, then\nresearch overlays from the jurisdiction.\n\n> **No silent supplement.** If a research query to the configured legal research tool returns few or no results for the jurisdiction's exemption thresholds, restrictive-covenant rules, pay-transparency law, or any other item you're researching, report what was found and stop. Do NOT fill the gap from web search or model knowledge without asking. Say: \"The search returned [N] results from [tool]. Coverage appears thin for [jurisdiction \u002F topic]. Options: (1) broaden the search query, (2) try a different research tool, (3) search the web — results will be tagged `[web search — verify]` and should be checked against a primary source before relying, or (4) flag as unverified and stop. Which would you like?\" A lawyer decides whether to accept lower-confidence sources.\n>\n> **Source attribution.** Tag every citation in the review with where it came from: `[Westlaw]`, `[CourtListener]`, or the MCP tool name for citations retrieved from a legal research connector; `[web search — verify]` for web-search citations; `[model knowledge — verify]` for citations recalled from training data; `[user provided]` for citations the user supplied. Citations tagged `verify` carry higher fabrication risk and should be checked first. Never strip or collapse the tags.\n\n### Step 4: Jurisdiction-specific requirements\n\nCheck the `~\u002F.claude\u002Fplugins\u002Fconfig\u002Fclaude-for-legal\u002Femployment-legal\u002FCLAUDE.md` table for this jurisdiction. Common categories to\nresearch for each hire:\n\n- **Pay transparency** — does the jurisdiction require a salary range in the\n  posting? If so, is this offer within the posted range? Research the current\n  rule (including any recent amendments or new enforcement guidance).\n- **Ban-the-box** — does the jurisdiction or locality restrict the timing or\n  scope of criminal-history inquiries?\n- **Salary-history limits** — is the jurisdiction one that restricts asking\n  about or relying on prior salary? Research current rules and recent\n  amendments.\n- **Required offer-letter or onboarding notices** — some jurisdictions require\n  specific notices at offer or hire (wage-notice statutes, sick-leave notices,\n  etc.). Research what is currently required and whether a template exists.\n\nCite primary sources. Verify currency.\n\n### Step 5: Offer letter content\n\nRead the letter. Check:\n\n**Employment-at-will is US-only.** \"At-will\" means either party can terminate without cause or notice (subject to statutory exceptions). This concept does not exist outside the US:\n\n- **US (most states):** At-will is the default. Offer letters often include \"at-will\" language to defeat implied-contract arguments. Check that it's present if US.\n- **Montana:** Not at-will — Wrongful Discharge from Employment Act requires cause after probation.\n- **UK:** No at-will. Employees have statutory protections from day 1 (unfair dismissal after 2 years of service, automatic unfair dismissal for protected reasons from day 1). The offer letter must contain the written statement of particulars (ERA 1996 s.1): pay, hours, notice period, holidays, pension, disciplinary\u002Fgrievance procedures.\n- **EU:** No at-will. Termination requires cause, notice, and often works council consultation or collective redundancy procedures. The offer letter requirements vary by member state but notice periods and written particulars are standard.\n- **Australia:** No at-will. Fair Work Act minimum notice periods, unfair dismissal protections, NES.\n- **Canada:** No at-will. Common law reasonable notice (can be months), ESA minimums, wrongful dismissal exposure.\n- **Singapore, other APAC:** No at-will. Employment Act and contract-based protections.\n\n**Check for at-will language ONLY if the jurisdiction is US.** For non-US jurisdictions, check instead for: notice period (and whether it meets statutory minimum), the written-statement particulars the jurisdiction requires, probation period terms, and any jurisdiction-specific mandatory clauses.\n\n**Never recommend adding at-will language to a non-US offer letter.** It's legally meaningless, it can conflict with mandatory statutory terms, and it signals to the employee's lawyer that the employer didn't understand the jurisdiction.\n\n- At-will language present and not undermined elsewhere (US only — see above)\n- Contingencies clear (background check, reference, I-9 if US \u002F right-to-work verification for the applicable jurisdiction)\n- Start date, title, salary, reporting structure stated\n- Equity terms (if any) consistent with the plan\n- Integration clause so the letter is the whole deal\n- For non-US: notice period meets statutory minimum, jurisdiction's required written-statement particulars included, probation period compliant with local rules\n\n## Output\n\n> **Jurisdiction assumption.** This review applies the rules of the employee's work jurisdiction identified in Step 1. Enforceability of restrictive covenants, exemption thresholds, pay-transparency obligations, salary-history limits, and required notices vary materially by state and locality, and several have shifted recently. If the candidate's work location changes, or the role spans jurisdictions, this review may not apply as written.\n\n```markdown\n[WORK-PRODUCT HEADER — per plugin config ## Outputs — differs by role; see `## Who's using this`]\n\n## Hiring Review: [Candidate] — [Role] — [Jurisdiction]\n\n**Overall:** [Clear to send | Changes needed | Escalate]\n\n### Jurisdiction: [State\u002FCountry]\n[Jurisdiction table entry.
