Crosswalk pair
FedRAMP Rev5 Class B and US Employment Law - Federal Baseline, control by control
2 canonical controls in Keel’s library satisfy clauses of both FedRAMP Rev5 Class B and US Employment Law - Federal Baseline. Implement each once, attach the evidence once, and it counts toward each standard. The overlap is the work you don’t repeat.
The overlap
What the two libraries have in common
Every figure here counts canonical controls in Keel’s library, not clauses of either standard. Each standard’s own authored count is on its framework page.
2
Controls that satisfy both

The mapping
Controls that satisfy both
Each row is one control in Keel’s library and the clauses it answers on each side. Do the work once; both columns are then evidenced by the same artifacts.
| Canonical control | FedRAMP Rev5 Class B clauses | US Employment Law - Federal Baseline clauses |
|---|---|---|
| Data retention & secure disposal Data is retained per policy and securely destroyed when no longer needed. Retention periods are set against the purpose the data was collected for and any legal or contractual obligation to keep it, recorded per category of data rather than left to whoever is looking at the record, and enforced when they run out - data goes because its period ended, not because somebody finally objected to keeping it. Destruction leaves it unrecoverable rather than merely removed from an index, and what was destroyed, when, by what method and on whose authority is recorded. The hardware and media that held it reach a defined final disposition at end of life, by a route the organization has decided in advance rather than by whatever happens to the box; and any media that stays in service is cleared of that data before it is reused, reassigned, or passed to anyone else. Disposal is not confined to data and media: the documentation, the tools and the system components the organization has defined as needing it are disposed of by techniques and methods it has approved in advance - so a decommissioned appliance, a retired build server, a set of network diagrams or a licensed utility leaves the organization by a route somebody chose, and the route is recorded on the same terms as a data destruction. A retention period has two ends and both are stated: the minimum the organization must keep the data for, and the maximum beyond which it may not be kept - so retention is bounded in the direction of keeping too long as well as of destroying too early. | MP-6, SI-12, SR-12 | us.recordkeeping.eeo, us.recordkeeping.i9-retention |
| Personnel security (HR) Background screening, confidentiality agreements, and onboarding/offboarding security steps. Before a person is given access to sensitive data, and again whenever their role changes, a documented determination is made that the access their work calls for is appropriate to it - the screening informs that decision but is not the decision. What screening may ask is itself bounded: inquiries about a candidate’s health, disability or medical history are not made, and medical examinations are not required, before a conditional offer of the role has been made, and where such inquiries or examinations are made after an offer they are applied to everyone entering that role rather than to the individuals somebody chose to ask. Access is ended when their employment, or any other arrangement under which they worked for the organization, comes to an end, and whenever that determination says they should no longer hold it. The security responsibilities a person carries are stated in the terms under which they are engaged - in the employment contract or the equivalent agreement for a contractor or temporary worker - together with the organization’s own obligations to them, the duties that continue after the engagement ends and for how long, and what happens if the terms are broken; the terms are accepted before access is given. At the end of an engagement, and on a change of role that removes the need, every asset the person holds is returned and the return is recorded against the inventory rather than assumed - devices, media, tokens and keys, documents and any organization information held on equipment they own - and where information exists only on equipment the organization is not taking back, its transfer and deletion are performed and confirmed before the person leaves. The practice is governed by a documented personnel security policy with supporting procedures, issued to the roles it binds, owned by a named role and reviewed on a defined cadence. Security and privacy responsibilities are written into the POSITION DESCRIPTION for each role rather than only into the contract everybody signs, so what a particular job is accountable for is visible when it is advertised, filled, evaluated and re-scoped - and the descriptions are revised when the responsibilities change. Where a regime requires any NATIONALITY condition attaching to a role or to an account type to be written down, the organization documents the condition, and documents explicitly that there is none where none applies. Silence and a recorded absence are not the same record, and only the second can be verified. | PS-1, PS-2, PS-3, PS-6, PS-7, PS-9 | us.hiring-onboarding.ada-preoffer, us.hiring-onboarding.fcra-background |
Beyond the pair
Where else this work counts
A framework is lit when a shared control above also maps to it. Unlit means none of them do, which is an absence rather than a judgment about that standard.

The thesis
Why this is one project, not two
On a crosswalk-native model, US Employment Law - Federal Baseline mostly lights up controls you already built for FedRAMP Rev5 Class B. You’re not re-uploading the same screenshot for a second audit. You apply the framework and see the genuine delta worth working. That’s the whole idea behind collect once, comply everywhere.
Next step
Add US Employment Law - Federal Baseline to the work you already did
Apply both frameworks in one workspace and see the overlap measured against the controls you already hold.
