The Employer Legal Risk Assessment
Workplace and commercial risks rarely announce themselves. A termination clause that won't hold up. A workplace policy that's never been updated. A vendor agreement signed without legal review. This checklist helps you identify those gaps before they become disputes, complaints, or litigation.
What's Inside
29 Questions Across Three Critical Areas
01
Employment Contracts & Termination Exposure
Are your offer letters and termination clauses enforceable under Ontario or BC law? Do your agreements expose you to liability you're not aware of? This section tells you.
02
Workplace Policies & Compliance Obligations
Which policies do you actually need under the ESA, OHSA, and the Human Rights Code? Which ones are missing, outdated, or legally insufficient? This section maps the gaps.
03
Commercial Agreements & Human Rights Exposure
Vendor contracts, accommodation obligations, and liability areas that most growing organizations overlook until a complaint or claim makes the exposure impossible to ignore.
Why this matters: The organizations that manage legal risk well are not the ones with the biggest legal budgets. They're the ones that know where their exposure is. This assessment gives you that visibility in under 10 minutes, and a clear sense of what to do about it.
