The challenge
Why the workflow breaks
Three patterns show up across teams using GenAI without a shared workflow
Fragmented evidence
Case notes, policies, and engagement signals can sit in different places, making the fact pattern hard to reconstruct.
Context collapse
A short summary can flatten chronology, source quality, and employee context if citations are not preserved.
Premature conclusions
ER work requires judgment, but unsupported patterns can make a case look more resolved than it actually is.
Where GenAI helps
From confused intake to source-of-truth artifacts
Here’s what changes when the team uses this playbook
From
To
Case notes are summarized as a narrative
Individual Case Summaries keep facts and sources visible
Evidence links are checked manually
Cited Evidence Sheets preserve traceability
Engagement signals are considered separately
Case-Engagement Cross-Reference shows relevant context
Escalation themes are discussed informally
Case Trend Summary captures patterns for review
How the playbook works
3 phases, one source of truth
Each phase produces an artifact the next phase builds on
Structure cases
AI applies the Case Summary Template to produce Individual Case Summaries with chronology, cited facts, and open questions.
Cross-reference signals
The workflow builds Cited Evidence Sheets and a Case-Engagement Cross-Reference without replacing ER judgment.
Summarize trends
Risk Highlight Reports, Pattern & Escalation Analysis, and the Case Trend Summary focus human review on supported signals.
What you’ll produce
Sample artifacts from the workflow
Interim and final deliverables you can review and download
Individual Case Summaries
Per-case fact summary with verbatim evidence, source pointers, and policy references before severity scoring or cross-case conclusions.
Risk Highlight Report
Case-level risk table with severity, compliance citations, practical implications, and recommended next steps tied to escalation rules.
Case Trend Summary
Leadership-facing summary of case mix, recurring patterns, escalation snapshot, and evidence-linked options for policy or resourcing follow-up.
Built into the workflow
Quality and risk checks at every step
Verification, data handling, and definition-of-done rules are part of the playbook — not afterthoughts
Quality
Enforces verbatim citation of source case files and policy-anchored severity classifications across all cases, ensuring every risk assessment traces to documented evidence rather than inconsistent analyst interpretation.
Risk handling
Prevents protected employee relations data — disciplinary records, grievance details, and performance improvement plans — from exposure in unapproved GenAI tools through mandatory redaction gates and approved-platform restrictions.
