Law Update Status
We automatically monitor 192 government and legal sources to keep our employment law data current. This page shows what we track and how often each source is checked.
How We Stay Current
Crawlers check federal agencies (DOL, EEOC, NLRB), the Federal Register, Congress.gov, and Supreme Court decisions on a daily basis.
State civil rights departments, LegiScan bill tracking, and NCSL are checked weekly during legislative sessions to catch new state employment laws.
All detected changes are flagged for human review before being applied to our law database. No automated change goes live without verification.
Important Note
While we make every effort to keep this information current, laws change frequently. The monitoring system detects changes that are then verified by our team. There may be a delay between when a law is enacted or modified and when it appears in our database. For the most authoritative and up-to-date information, always consult the official government source or speak with a qualified attorney. See our full disclaimer.
