The HRTech Wire · auto-curated
HR technology, every morning — wired to the companies and people behind it.
Workforce uncertainty is mounting as potential US job cuts in the millions raise recession fears, while Big Tech firms including Microsoft, Google, and Meta pursue voluntary buyout strategies — moves that are unsettling employees and reshaping headcount planning. On the technology and compliance side, Sterling Brokers' acquisition of Lucite brings AI-powered tools to Canada's independent benefits brokers, CodeSignal advances skills validation through agentic intelligence, and Remote has launched expense cards for Employer of Record staff. Employers are also navigating a tightening regulatory landscape, with new salary disclosure requirements under an emerging pay-transparency law and fresh compliance obligations for New York employers around personnel record access.
