Client shall notify Pebl immediately of any changes to the provided information.Pebl reserves the right to refuse to employ and/or the right to conduct an Offboarding of any Supported Worker in its reasonable discretion, including but not limited to situations where employing the Supported Worker would violate Applicable Laws, require Pebl's local Affiliate or ICP to obtain additional insurance policies, employer licenses or registrations in the Work Location or otherwise cause undue hardship to Pebl.

Client shall provide reasonable cooperation to Pebl, including but not limited, to providing additional information about the Supported Worker upon request and giving Pebl permission to contact the Supported Worker to request additional documentation or information directly from the Supported Worker. Client acknowledges and agrees that Pebl cannot hire any Supported Worker unless and until it is able to verify their work authorization rights in the Work Location.
  • Onboarding and Offboarding: Supported Worker Compensation Package. Client is responsible for providing the compensation and benefits package agreed upon with each Supported Worker ("Compensation Package") to Pebl prior to submitting the Onboarding Form for the applicable Supported Worker.

  • Onboarding: Offer Letters. If Client wishes to provide an offer letter to a Supported Worker or candidate prior to the execution of the Employment Agreement (as defined below) Pebl shall provide an offer letter to Client for Client's review and approval and, once approved by Client, Pebl shall send the offer letter to the Supported Worker or candidate. Client acknowledges that providing an offer letter to a Supported Worker or candidate may increase its risk of Co-Employment (as defined below) and may constitute a legally-binding offer of employment in the applicable Work Location.
  • Compliant Employment Contracts. Upon Client's completion and submission of the Onboarding Form, Pebl shall provide an employment agreement to be signed by the applicable Supported Worker and Pebl's local Affiliate or ICP ("Employment Agreement") to Client for review and approval.

Client acknowledges and agrees that some job types or responsibilities cannot be supported by Pebl's local Affiliate or ICP due to industry- specific or job-specific licensing and/or regulatory requirements that apply to employers under Applicable Laws in the Work Location. If such a situation exists, Pebl shall give notice to Client after submission of the Onboarding Form and the Parties will cooperate in good faith to either modify the job type and/or responsibilities so that the licensing and/or regulatory requirements do not apply or to reach a separate agreement regarding compliance with the licensing and/or regulatory requirements.

The Payroll Calendar will include the date after which no new Supported Workers can be onboarded in that same month ("New Joiner Cutoff"), which is the 10th of the month (or the last business day before the tenth (10th) of the month if the tenth (10th) falls on a US public holiday or weekend) unless set forth otherwise in the Payroll Calendar, the date by which payroll additions (i.e., changes to salary, bonuses, variable compensation, etc.) ("Additions") must be submitted to Pebl for inclusion in the next payroll cycle, and the date the Supported Worker(s) will be paid. If the Onboarding Form for a new Supported Worker is completed and submitted by Client after the New Joiner Cutoff, the Supported Worker's Start Date will be set for the following month.
