Testing a Language-Support Routing Checklist for HR Intake

Research question: Does a structured evidence checklist improve independent review of a synthetic HR intake message?

Methodology and scope: Create fifty synthetic cases with controlled omissions, conflicts, duplicates, ambiguous events, and clean controls. Two reviewers independently classify each case using language, urgency, privacy, translation confidence, and route. Measure correct holds, missed conflicts, review time, and reviewer agreement.

Inference limits: Results can compare reviewer behavior on the constructed cases. They cannot prove facts in a live system, establish legal compliance, validate a real employer process, or show that the checklist is suitable for another organization.

Limitations and use: Synthetic cases are smaller and cleaner than operational histories, and reviewers may learn seeded patterns. Accountable HR, security, payroll, training, or reporting owners retain all interpretation, approval, exception, and policy decisions.
