Describe the situation
Capture the allegation, issue or operational need. High-risk facts can require professional review.
WageRun Shield
Guided fair process. A record both sides can inspect.
Source-linked steps, worker response and an append-only chronology—without automating the employment decision.
A process, not a verdict
Make missing steps visible before a person decides.
Shield is designed around the September 2025 Code of Practice: Dismissal, current sources and the employer’s duty to make the actual decision.
Prepare notice and opportunity
Show the source and required process shape. A qualified content approval remains a production gate.
Hear the worker response
Provide a channel to respond or acknowledge receipt without forcing agreement.
Record the human decision
A named person makes findings and chooses the outcome. The system does not select a sanction.
Preserve the chronology
Notices, responses, evidence, review and next steps remain linked without erasing earlier material.
Professional boundary
Software guides the workflow. Qualified people provide scoped advice.
Advice Review is separately priced and separately assigned. It is not hidden inside low-cost software and does not create an outcome promise.
ShieldGuidance, checklist and evidence chronologyNo automated finding or sanction
EmployerFacts, participation and final decisionNamed authority remains on the record
ReviewerScoped professional review when acceptedAssignment and completion must be explicit
RepresentativeSeparate engagement where permittedNo representation is bundled or implied
What “ready” means here
CCMA-ready records, never an outcome warranty.
Source current
The workflow version points to its source and effective date. A source change triggers review.
Participation visible
Notice, opportunity to respond, actual response and delivery evidence remain distinct.
Completeness inspectable
An export can show the chronology and missing material. It cannot prove that every fact or decision was fair.
Current availability
Shield workflow mechanics exist locally. Qualified current-Code approval, real professional operation and production use remain launch gates.
