Each requirement is phrased as a verifiable statement, allowing users to score their organization's maturity. Example questions include 'Feedback from exit interviews is reviewed by HR leadership at least quarterly', 'Onboarding workflows include at least three experience checkpoints', and 'A documented process exists for escalating unresolved employee concerns within five business days'.
