“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.

Document decision authority
List which assignments, targets and staffing recommendations you could make independently. Note approvals needed from another manager. If team results were attributed to you, explain any account allocation or resource decision you requested and the response, separating a recommendation from authority to act.
Connect targets with changed conditions
Record the target period and when expectations changed. Describe turnover, territory reassignment or additional service duties you reported, without using them as an assumed explanation for every result. Pair your own evaluation with permitted instructions and your written response.
Keep team and customer files separate
Do not collect representatives’ disciplinary histories, compensation statements or complete customer pipelines. Identify relevant reports by type and date. A supervisory title alone does not determine coverage or pay classification; your own role documents and actual duties provide the starting context.
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.
