Compliance & Standards

EEOC / Title VII of the Civil Rights Act

Equal Employment Opportunity Commission classification alignment

JobAlign returns the EEO-1 job category code for every title classified, aligning with the EEOC's standard occupational groupings used in annual EEO-1 Component 1 reporting — covering 10 categories from Executives/Senior Officials to Service Workers. Using consistent, standardized EEO-1 codes helps ensure your workforce data is reportable, auditable, and defensible in the event of an EEOC inquiry.

JobAlign does not make employment decisions — it assists in the classification of job titles for reporting and architecture purposes only.

FLSA — Fair Labor Standards Act

Exempt / Non-Exempt / Highly Compensated classification

JobAlign provides FLSA exemption status recommendations based on the role's typical duties and the DOL's 2024 salary thresholds: $684/week ($35,568/year) for the standard exemption test and $107,432/year for the Highly Compensated Employee (HCE) exemption. Exemption status is evaluated against the five FLSA white-collar tests: Executive, Administrative, Professional, Computer, and Outside Sales.

ADA — Americans with Disabilities Act

Accessibility and non-discriminatory classification practices

JobAlign's classification recommendations are title-based and function-neutral. The tool does not factor physical requirements, accommodations, or disability-related criteria into any output — consistent with ADA Title I guidance. The platform is built to WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility principles including semantic HTML, keyboard navigability, and sufficient color contrast.

GDPR — General Data Protection Regulation

EU/UK data privacy compliance

JobAlign processes job titles and classification codes — not personal employee data. No names, employee IDs, salaries, or personally identifiable information are required or stored by the classifier.

CCPA / CPRA — California Privacy Rights

California Consumer Privacy Act & California Privacy Rights Act

JobAlign collects limited account data (name, email, company) necessary to operate the platform. This data is not sold or used for profiling. Classification inputs (job titles) are treated as business-purpose data and are not considered personal information under CCPA. Mapping data uploaded by customers is treated as confidential business data owned by that customer.
