What a report shows, on reconstructed situations
9 situations, 9 full reports — with the dated record of facts they produce. The conversations are invented; the structure of the report, the measures and the theoretical frameworks are those of the product.
Reconstructed case: the exchanges, dates and participants are fictional data, written to show the structure of the document. No real person, team or company is described here.

What these reports do not do
None of them concludes to harassment, to a fault, or to anything at all about the other person. They establish dated facts and offer readings that state their own limits. Putting a label on someone teaches you nothing; seeing what happened does.
