AI Use Guardrails One-Pager

The institution-wide guardrails leadership approves as policy — data-safety tiers, the human-review rule, and the approved-tool boundary — on a single page every employee can read.

What this one-pager sets

The green / yellow / red data classification rule — what may, may with care, and may never go into an AI tool.
The human-review rule: which AI-assisted outputs require a named reviewer before use.
The approved-tool boundary and how staff request an addition.

Why leadership signs it

If leadership does not set the guardrails, staff will improvise their own — inconsistently, and usually after the first incident. Approved guardrails turn judgment calls into policy.
