What to do when a labor inspector gives you a notice

If an inspector hands you a letter or notice, nothing is broken and no fix is owed — you need to know what the notice requires. 1. File a GUIDANCE request (not a complaint). 2. Upload a photo or scan of the notice. 3. Describe briefly what happened: 'Labor inspector visited, gave me this notice.' 4. The relevant department replies with clear next steps: what is required, what documents, and the deadline from the notice. 5. Once you understand or have complied, confirm — the request closes as 'guidance acknowledged'. Guidance requests follow the same SLA clock and escalation ladder as complaints — a company waiting on legally required guidance deserves the same time-bound accountability.
