## Q32 key (Workforce Audit Calendar)

1. Service was Monday, April 5, and the service day is excluded. The third business day is Thursday, April 8. Missed: the initial production is late.
2. The offsite forms are expected Thursday morning, so an extension may be requested before the deadline but is not necessary if complete production can occur by close Thursday. If requested, it changes nothing unless granted in writing. Missed: Arclight relies on an unapproved extension.
3. Produce the requested forms and existing payroll roster only, with a neutral cover letter. Do not send the unsupported "fully complied" statement or unrelated files. Missed: an audit response creates avoidable admissions or false assurances.
4. Preserve originals and make current, dated, attributable corrections. Never backdate or replace the original. Missed: curable paperwork defects become concealment evidence.
5. The April 12 technical notice gives ten business days after receipt: April 13 is day one and Monday, April 26 is day ten. Complete and document cure by April 26. Missed: fourteen avoidable paperwork penalties mature.
6. The April 14 mismatch notice requires individual delivery by the fifth business day: Thursday April 15, Friday April 16, Monday April 19, Tuesday April 20, Wednesday April 21. Missed: employees lose process and the employer violates the notice rule.
7. Each eight-business-day contest period runs from that employee's actual receipt, not from the Bureau's April 14 transmission. Obtain signed or electronically confirmed receipt and calculate separately. Missed: adverse action occurs before the employee's window expires.
8. Marisol's renewal receipt, filing date, category, and extension effect are specifically missing. Obtain and verify them before any work decision. Missed: an authorized employee is unlawfully removed or an unauthorized employee remains based on assumption.
9. Do not remove all three immediately. Deliver notices, permit timely contest, verify the two transposed numbers, and await final nonconfirmation or independent proof. Missed: national-origin and retaliation exposure is created during a curable mismatch process.
10. Assign records production to counsel and HR, technical cures to HR with employee signoff, receipt tracking to a named compliance owner, and final work decisions to counsel-reviewed HR after the response period. Missed: correct duties occur without a reliable calendar or owner.
