# Ethics & Compliance — Review Queue

![Ethics & Compliance — Review Queue](/docs-content/2b05d0797b-01-review-queue.png.webp)

**Navigation:** Intelligence → Ethics & Compliance → Review Queue  
**Access:** restricted to explicitly authorized reviewers; unauthorized users cannot see the area, counts, or existence of items  
**Primary audience:** trained ethics, compliance, HR, legal, or other designated reviewers according to policy

## Purpose

Review Queue supports controlled human assessment of possible policy-related signals found in authorized workplace evidence. It presents context, candidate category, policy mapping, and review history without declaring misconduct, guilt, intent, or motive.

## Queue scope

The queue can be filtered by assignment, priority, category, age, source, jurisdiction, or policy. Summary counts distinguish all candidates, items requiring human review, items assigned to the signed-in reviewer, and SLA state.

## Candidate list

Each entry shows a neutral candidate label—such as possible inappropriate language, harassment, threat, discrimination, conflict of interest, or bribery—plus source, time, review requirement, priority, and assignment. These labels indicate possible policy relevance only.

## Review workspace

The selected item displays:

- source and timestamp;
- surrounding conversation or document context;
- speaker or author names only when the reviewer chooses to reveal them and policy permits it;
- highlighted excerpt and unhighlighted surrounding material;
- candidate severity and confidence as separate values;
- relevant policy sections and jurisdiction;
- prior reviewer activity and notes;
- related evidence, duplicate candidates, or existing case link.

## Actions

- Reveal identities where authorized and necessary; the access is reason-coded and audited.
- Play or open the evidence in context.
- Add a reviewer note.
- Confirm policy relevance, change category or severity, request more evidence, dismiss the candidate, or identify a duplicate.
- Escalate or create a restricted case when the applicable procedure requires it.
- Reassign within the authorized reviewer pool.

## Review procedure

Confirm purpose and jurisdiction, inspect the full relevant context, minimize identity exposure, and review applicable policy. Record a narrow evidence-based decision and rationale. Create a case only when the policy threshold is met; do not use the queue as a disciplinary conclusion.

## Safeguards and states

The interface uses human-review-required language. Confidence does not establish wrongdoing. Review notes, identity reveals, exports, decisions, and access are audited. Recusal, conflict-of-interest, legal hold, sealed evidence, and restricted handoff states supersede ordinary queue actions.
