Reviewer Worksheet

Short Explanation

The Reviewer Worksheet is completed before any record is submitted to a personnel file or finalized case record. Each item is pass or fail, and a failed item requires resolution before submission, not after. It runs four checks. The Reconstruction Check asks whether a reviewer unfamiliar with the matter could reconstruct the basis from the file alone. The Evidence and Anchoring Check confirms each evaluative adjective rests on a specific behavioral fact and that escalation references prior documented warnings. The AI-Assisted Content Check confirms generated wording was reviewed against original notes and attested. The Record Type Escalation Check applies the rules for termination, discipline, accommodation, and investigation records. The worksheet ends in a reviewer attestation: READY (approved), REVIEW REQUIRED (clarification needed), or STOP (return to drafter). The attestation confirms documentation quality; it does not certify factual accuracy or legal sufficiency.

Why It Matters

Unstructured review produces inconsistent, unrepeatable results. A pass/fail worksheet makes each determination explicit and resolvable before submission, and produces a consistent attestation the organization can rely on.

Reviewer Questions

Common Failure Pattern

A record is approved on overall impression without completing the pass/fail checks. A failed item reaches the file unresolved and surfaces under later review.
