While location isn’t a protected class under federal law, these decisions can still introduce proximity bias—where in-person employees are favored over remote ones.

This can impact morale, advancement, and fairness across teams. Business leaders must balance legal authority with thoughtful practices to ensure equity in hybrid environments. https://ow.ly/Rqg450Wn2Qi

Hiring the right people is critical to growing your business—but how you hire matters just as much as who you hire. Employers can easily (and often unintentionally) run afoul of state and federal laws during the hiring process, opening themselves up to costly legal claims. From discriminatory job postings to improper interview questions, even well-meaning practices can lead to big problems. Common hiring missteps include:

• Asking about a candidate’s age, marital status, or family plans
• Failing to provide accommodations during the application or interview process
• Posting job ads with discriminatory language
• Not properly classifying employees vs. independent contractors
• Conducting background checks without proper disclosures

If you're unsure whether your hiring practices are legally sound, Venn Law Group can help you evaluate your process and reduce your risk. https://ow.ly/nYKg50WiGh9

In 2025, hiring family members isn’t just a business decision, it’s a legal risk. When favoritism overlaps with bias, even well-intentioned family hires can trigger costly discrimination claims.

A single complaint, like one recent case in Maryland, can escalate fast and cost thousands, even without going to court.

For small businesses, the real danger isn’t the hire itself—it’s the lack of structure, transparency, and documentation. Business leaders must lead the charge in managing fairness before perceptions become legal liabilities. https://ow.ly/GviE50Wgpea
