Each Compliance Step within a Section starts with Instructions, which is a free form plain text field allowing you to provide instructions, guidance and information as required (for whatever purposes).

Site Navigation & Logistics Instructions commonly guide people through the physical environment—where to park, which entrance to use, where to find their supervisor on arrival, and how to access amenities like restrooms and break areas. For construction sites, this extends to material storage locations, waste disposal areas, and site communication protocols. This practical wayfinding information helps new arrivals feel oriented and reduces the confusion that slows down onboarding.

Safety & Emergency Procedures can communicate safety information — emergency assembly points, evacuation procedures, first aid station locations, and emergency contact numbers. Construction sites use this space to detail site-specific PPE requirements, exclusion zones, and hot work permit procedures. Healthcare facilities explain hand hygiene protocols and infection control measures. These instructions ensure everyone knows how to stay safe and what to do in an emergency before they even step on site.

Access & Security Instructions frequently cover building access procedures, including where to collect swipe cards, keys, or access codes, and explain security protocols like visitor sign-in requirements, photography policies in secure areas, and confidential document handling. For corporate offices, this includes IT security reminders about locking screens and password policies. These instructions protect both the organization and help new people understand boundaries from day one.

Document & Compliance Instructions are invaluable for specifying exactly what's needed for file uploads — file format requirements, document validity periods (like "must be current within 12 months"), what information must be visible, and examples of acceptable documentation. For declarations, they might explain what the signature legally represents and consequences of false information. This reduces rejected submissions and back-and-forth communication.

Role-Specific Expectations Instructions also communicate immediate job expectations and policies—shift times, break schedules, uniform requirements, service standards, or supervision responsibilities. In hospitality, this might cover cash handling procedures; in education, student supervision ratios; in healthcare, patient privacy protocols. These instructions set clear expectations about conduct and responsibilities before someone's first day, ensuring everyone starts on the same page.
