Hey everyone,
I just joined as a junior HR coordinator at a 80 person company about 2 months ago, and we have employees in like 11 countries. My manager just asked me to "make sure our severance accruals are on track" for the auditor. I had to look up what severance accrual even was, and from what I understand, in some countries employees earn severance from day one, like it builds up over time as a liability on the books.

So if I have someone in Mexico who's been with us 2 years and we fired them tomorrow we'd owe them something already calculated.

Is that right? and how do I "track" this? Is there a spreadsheet I'm supposed to be maintaining? I don't think anyone has been doing this and I'm low key panicking.

Hey everyone,

So this is sort of a half a vent and half a question post/situation, I run infra for a 60 person company with engineers in Manila, Berlin, Austin, and Brazil. My HR asked me to confirm the on-call schedule for our compliance audit that is happening soon, and they came back saying it doesn't comply with german working time law, which I had no idea even existed!!! Every time I think I've got the rotation balanced I find out another country has a thing, is there a sane way to do this or do most teams just pay everyone the german standard to be safe?

Not sure if this is the right place — but trying because good people are sometimes outside job boards.
