• {{focus_areas}}: Specific compliance areas to examine (e.g., data privacy, labor laws, tax implications).
• {{recent_changes}}: Any known recent legal updates or regulatory changes affecting remote work.

Instructions

2. Provide a high-level overview of the key legal requirements for remote work in each of the employee locations provided.
3. Analyze the current policies against these requirements and flag potential areas of non-compliance.
4. Highlight any recent legal updates relevant to the focus areas and explain their potential impact on the company.
5. Compile a prioritized list of compliance risks, with the most urgent at the top.
6. For each risk, suggest a concrete mitigation step or policy adjustment.

Output format Structure the response with sections for each location, a risk matrix, and a summary of recommendations. Use clear, professional language. Include a disclaimer that this is not legal advice.
