## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability globalrules-hiring-kit-by-country-6bf190f0
```

Example prompt: Pull up the full hiring compliance kit for Germany — I need the minimum wage, standard work week, public holidays with in-lieu rules, parental leave, retirement age, corporate tax rate, and business and banking hours all in one shot.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a full employment compliance bundle for a single country in one API call rather than making multiple individual lookups. Ideal for HR agents, EOR platforms, payroll tools, and global hiring workflows that need authoritative, government-sourced data across all key labor and business metrics simultaneously. Prefer this over the sibling single-fact endpoint when you need more than one or two data points for a country.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported or invalid country code returns an error or empty response
- Data may be outdated if the government source has changed since the last verification date
- Render.com cold start latency on first request after inactivity
- Payment failure via x402 protocol blocks the request
- Some smaller/disputed territories may have incomplete data
