## FEDERAL HR COMPLIANCE CHART

### HR COMPLIANCE AFFECTS EMPLOYERS OF ALL SIZES

The following chart provides a basic summary of some of the most common federal laws affecting employers. Many of the coverage requirements are based upon employer size; however, in some cases, coverage requirements may be based upon other factors (i.e., size of the contract). More information for each statute is available by clicking on the links. Employers should also check state statutes to ensure compliance in the jurisdiction(s) where the company operates.
