What must the Crown Gold Exchange franchisee use on all documents with its employees and independent contractors?

According to the 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, a Crown Gold Exchange franchisee must use its legal name on all documents with its employees and independent contractors. These documents include employment applications, time cards, paychecks, and employment and independent contractor agreements.

Furthermore, the franchisee is explicitly prohibited from using the Crown Gold Exchange's trademarks or "Marks" on any of these documents. This requirement ensures that there is a clear distinction between the franchisee as the employer and Crown Gold Exchange itself.

This stipulation is important for legal and liability reasons, as it reinforces that the franchisee is solely responsible for the terms and conditions of employment, including hiring, training, compensation, and termination. It also clarifies that the franchisee and Crown Gold Exchange are not joint employers, and the franchisee's employees are not considered agents or employees of Crown Gold Exchange.
