This toolkit organises the duties of Real Decreto Legislativo 5/2000 into 19 working files of open questions, with the statutory text carried verbatim beside each duty.

This instrument reaches employers of every size in Spain, including construction contractors and subcontractors, temporary work agencies, online sellers and other businesses active in commerce, waste producers, and companies that handle employment and social security obligations. It sets out the infringements and sanctions of the social order, covering labour relations, employment, occupational risk prevention, documentation, and economic obligations. The working files walk a business through the duties that apply to its own activity, one phase of open questions at a time.

Each working file gathers the provisions on a single subject, such as labour relations, communication to the labour authority, subcontracting in construction, prevention of occupational risks, employment, or documentation. The business answers the open questions from its own records, and the statutory text sits beside each duty exactly as the authority wrote it. The sections are served through a connector inside Claude, so the business works from its own records without downloading or installing anything.

The documents that come back are dated compliance reports the business keeps in its own file. The toolkit never gives advice and never presents a perspective; it carries what the authority wrote, organised.

Which businesses does this instrument apply to?

It applies to employers in Spain across sectors, including construction contractors and subcontractors, temporary work agencies, online sellers, waste producers, and companies with employment and social security duties. The working files organise the obligations by subject so a business can locate the duties that match its own activity.

What does the toolkit contain?

It is a set of 19 working files that organise the instrument's obligations into phases of open questions a business answers from its own records. The statutory text is carried verbatim beside each duty. The files cover subjects such as labour relations, employment, occupational risk prevention, documentation, and economic obligations.

How are the sections delivered?

The sections are served through a connector inside Claude. The business opens the working files there and answers the open questions from its own records. Nothing is downloaded and nothing is installed.

What do I receive at the end of the questions?

The documents that come back are dated compliance reports the business keeps in its own file. Each report records the answers the business gave against the duties in the working files. The business can retain the dated report with its own records.

Does the toolkit tell me whether my business is compliant?

The toolkit never gives advice and never presents a perspective; it carries what the authority wrote, organised. The open questions prompt the business to answer from its own records. The dated compliance report records those answers for the business to keep.

Which subjects do the working files cover?

The files cover labour relations, communication to the labour authority, subcontracting in the construction sector, prevention of occupational risks, employment, documentation, and economic obligations. Each file gathers the provisions on one subject and sets out the open questions that follow from them. A business can work through the files that match its activity.

How does the toolkit handle the wording of the law?

The toolkit carries the law's words exactly as the authority wrote them, beside each duty. The business reads the statutory text next to the open question it answers. This keeps the authority's wording in view throughout the working file.

Can a construction contractor use the toolkit for subcontracting duties?

Yes. The working files include the provisions on subcontracting in the construction sector and on communication to the labour authority. A contractor answers the open questions from its own records, and the statutory text sits beside each duty. The dated compliance report records the answers for the business to keep.

What is the legal basis of the obligations in the toolkit?

The instrument is the Real Decreto Legislativo 5/2000, de 4 de agosto, por el que se aprueba el texto refundido de la Ley sobre Infracciones y Sanciones en el Orden Social, published in the Boletín Oficial del Estado núm. 189 on 8 August 2000. The working files organise its obligations by subject. The statutory text is carried beside each duty as the authority wrote it.

Do I need to prepare documents before starting?

The business answers the open questions from its own records, so it helps to have those records at hand. The working files set out the questions in phases, and the business moves through them at its own pace. The dated compliance report that comes back is kept in the business's own file.
