When to use it

Use when a client already has a workplace policy and wants it set beside the duties that were opened. It does not score the policy. The positive-duty guidelines were not opened, so this is not a map against those guidelines.

Used for these tasks

Each task page says how far AI may help with the task and what the lawyer must review.

How AI may be used

AI may quote a clause the principal marks and place it in the row the principal names. The principal decides whether the clause meets the duty.

AI may

  • Quote the clause number and the words the principal has highlighted
  • Leave the conclusion column blank

AI must not

  • Must not mark a policy as compliant
  • Must not add a duty from a guideline that was not opened
  • Must not draft a replacement policy

The lawyer checks

  • If the document is put forward as an action plan, each of section 61(a) to (f) is accounted for or marked absent
  • The positive-duty row uses only the Ombudsman's statement of the duty
  • A gap is recorded as a gap, not filled with a new clause

Method: how the Green, Yellow and Red levels are decided. This is guidance for planning, not legal advice.
