If I set up a corporation in a foreign country, then work "for" it as the manager of an American branch, would I be personally liable for suits against hiring and firing practices?
My guess is: no, that's why they call it liability limitation.
But how vulnerable would the company itself be, if it isn't incorporated in the US?
Innocent picture entirely unrelated to firing women who get fat, which is something I would never ever do.

You operate in America, you follow American laws, especially labor laws.

You sound like you know a lot about law.

Exactly. You shitpost on /biz/, you get banned.
He's not banned, and therefore not a shitposter.
That's the law.

If your foreign corporation ( that isn't a "controlled foreign corporation" / irs code: 4.61.7) contracts management services with an American LLC "HR & recruiting services agency" then you, as the agency, would submit potential employees and HR recommendations to the Foreign Corporation which will make all final decisions on hiring and firing for their american branch.
The trick is to make sure that the HR decisions are made by the non-"controlled foreign corporation" in a foreign country, and to limit the scope of your domestic operations to "collecting data."
However, you could just recruit directly and be as sexist/racist/whatever as you want completely legally. This is what the big boys do. It's only illegal to discriminate if you publically advertise the job opening and accept applicants.

If you just want to fire a woman for getting fat, check if you're in a right-to-work state. You can terminate "without cause" anytime you want.
She has to prove in court that she was fired for her physical appearance.
