## Checking plan

**Duty schedule and the work and rest record**

Compare the schedule and the record with the design principles on the page.

- What the AI does: From the duty schedule and the work and rest record, list the planned hours, the hours the record says were worked, any duty period over 12 hours in 24, any rest period without six unbroken hours, and any 6-on 6-off roster.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer decides whether the schedule and the record meet the published design principles for this vessel. The page is not treated as a marine-order hours limit.
- Who reviews: Responsible lawyer with competence in the matter
- Basis: Practical workflow informed by the linked primary sources; the traffic light and working checks are editorial guidance, not a court classification.
- Why: The level reflects what the work is, the consequence of an error, and how much of the output the lawyer must independently re-derive.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Compare the schedule with the hours the record says were actually worked, including handovers after the watch.
2. Flag a duty period of more than 12 hours in 24, a rest period without six unbroken hours, and a 6-on 6-off roster.
3. Keep the 70-hour week as the page's 'if possible' figure. Do not treat it as a limit set by a marine order.
4. The lawyer decides whether the schedule and the record meet the principles for this vessel.

## Notes

- These are suggested working checks. Confirm the required checking with the responsible lawyer before work starts; the checking approach does not establish permission to use AI.
