## Key facts

| Fact | Value |

| Practice area | [Employment & Workplace Relations (incl. WHS)](https://ailawframework.com/practice/employment-and-workplace-relations.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | Build a dated chronology of the allegations and the documents the lawyer has marked as usable, and flag an allegation with no document. |
| What the lawyer must review | The chronology is an organizing aid. You decide what the documents show and what may be used. Formal Opinion 512: check a generated chronology against the documents before you rely on it. Model Rule 1.6: personnel and investigation files do not go into a public tool. The chronology is not a finding. |

## Checking plan

- What the AI does: Build a dated chronology of the allegations and the documents the lawyer has marked as usable, and flag an allegation with no document.
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 22 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Notes

- An allegation without a document stays flagged. The tool does not fill the gap.
- What the employer may collect and use is for the lawyer. The chronology does not decide that.
