MaintainedLast reviewed
Key facts
- Human involvement
- YellowClose supervision
- How AI is used
- Extract the warning or the signed form in the words on the page, with where it was given and who signed. Do not say whether it excludes the claim.
- What the lawyer must review
- The lawyer decides what effect the words have. Extract them. Do not rewrite them.
- Do not treat sections 18 and 19 as a risk-warning rule or as a waiver rule.
- Keep health and wage records in a firm-controlled tool, not a public one.
- ASCR r 9 and APP 11 apply. Decide if a breach is notifiable under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

Section 19 applies whether or not the person was aware of the risk. Awareness is not supplied by pointing at a sign unless the lawyer is on the section 19 question, which is a different task.
