“Not published” preserves unavailable or suppressed source cells. “Above reporting limit” preserves a top-coded source value without inventing a number. A missing state estimate does not establish service eligibility. The data describe wage and salary employment; they do not measure self-employment income.

Separate symptom, test and finding
Describe the equipment’s general function, reported symptom and testing stage. Note what you observed directly and what another operator or technician reported. Record when additional testing or a component replacement was authorized, distinguishing a preliminary diagnosis from a confirmed result.
Put turnaround expectations in context
Identify the deadline or performance measure communicated to you. Note access restrictions, unavailable test equipment or parts requests and the response. Compare your own recorded work periods with diagnosis and setup rather than substituting the equipment’s downtime for your hours.
Keep control information protected
Do not copy circuit diagrams, calibration records, proprietary software, customer histories or restricted equipment settings into personal files. Identify relevant logs by type and date for review. Keep permitted employment notices separately, and never reproduce a dangerous fault or bypass controls to gather evidence.
Choose your next step
Review the workplace retaliation guide, unpaid wages guide, or discrimination guide if those concerns fit your experience. A job title alone does not establish a claim.
