Labor-law compliance built into employee time tracking
Rules for all 50 states, DC and 24 popular remote-work countries — so W-2 employees, 1099 contractors and overseas contractors each get the right treatment.

What’s included in compliance guardrails
Employee vs contractor
Contractors are tracked for billing, but schedules, break limits and scoring are off by default to avoid misclassification risk.
Monitoring notice
Everyone sees a plain-language notice before tracking starts, and their acknowledgment is recorded — required in New York, Connecticut and Delaware.
Meal and rest breaks
State meal-break rules are checked every day, with the statute cited.
Big warnings
Turning off a legal rule requires typing a confirmation and a reason. Every manager sees a red banner, and payroll files are marked.
Reviewed every quarter
The rules are re-checked every quarter, and the dashboard tells you if a review is overdue.
Not legal advice
Watchie helps you follow the rules; your employment lawyer has the final word.
