Assembled prompt
Beginner instructions
Replace names with labels such as Employee A and Manager B before using an AI tool. Start with the timeline and dispute table. Ask an experienced HR lead to review policy interpretation, legal risk, and the final escalation decision.
Advanced instructions
Test whether each disputed point would change the policy analysis or next step. Prioritize questions that can be checked against records. Keep the source account, evidence assessment, policy review, and recommendation in separate sections.
