How to use it

Your first 15 minutes

Step 1 is the Program Guide; step 5 is the HR AI Risk Checklist.

  1. Read the Program Guide (item 1) first. It frames the program and maps each part of the work to its tool.

  2. Run the Readiness Checklist (file 26) to see where you stand, then read the Toolkit guide (file 11).

  3. Build your job architecture and equal-value groups (file 15), then work the Readiness Workbook (file 3): data inventory, pay gap review, country tracker, action plan.

  4. Fix recruitment with the Job Posting Pay Range Pack (file 12), and stand up the Request Tracker (file 6) for the two-month pay-request window.

  5. Inventory and govern your HR AI with the HR AI Risk Checklist (file 10).

Before you buy

Clear answers to the practical questions.

The point of a product page is to let you judge the work before checkout.

What exactly do I receive?

17 PDF guides, 5 Word documents, 5 Excel workbooks, each one named in the What is inside section above. The purchase is a download, not a subscription, and the files are yours to keep.

Are these the real screenshots?

Yes. The preview images on this page are taken from the current deliverable, so you can judge the structure and writing before buying.

Can I use the files in my business?

The files are designed to be edited for your own internal operations. Review the included license and have legal counsel check decisions that require jurisdiction-specific advice.

What if I need help applying it?

Use the $149 Setup Session for one hour of implementation help on this tool. TrueStep HR does not offer broader consulting engagements. For a legal question, use qualified counsel.
