What's in every workbook

Built the way
a working reference should be.

Every Arbiter HR workbook follows the same structure — so once you know how to use one, you know how to use all nine. Source-cited, situation-organized, and updated monthly as laws change.

50-state reference table

Every state plus DC, side by side. The rule, the threshold, and the citation in one row.

Situation-based scenarios

Common compliance moments worked end-to-end — what to do, in what order, and what to document.

Compliance checklist

A step-through list for each scenario, written so you can use it in the meeting, not after.

Statute citations

Every rule is linked to its source statute or regulation so you can verify and cite without leaving the workbook.

Monthly statutory updates

Free for life. New laws, amendments, and effective dates folded in each month, with a changelog so you know what moved.

Excel + Google Sheets

Both formats included. Filter by state, sort by topic, drop a column into your own playbook — yours to use.

How we research

Sourced from statute. Verified monthly.

Every rule, threshold, and deadline in an Arbiter HR workbook is read directly from primary statute or regulation, cross-checked against state agency guidance, and re-verified each month. We publish the methodology so you can see exactly how it's done.

Informational only. Arbiter HR workbooks are professional reference materials, not legal advice. Compliance requirements depend on your specific facts, jurisdiction, and circumstances. Consult qualified counsel before acting on any specific situation.
