Check before you trust.

You can't check everything. Check in proportion to what it costs if the answer is wrong.

01

Triage

What happens if this is wrong? Low, medium or high stakes?

02

Go to the source

The Act, the official site, the contract. Not a blog about it.

03

Cross-check

A second source, or ask the question a different way.

04

Call an expert

For high stakes: legal, finance, HR or medical sign-off.

The higher the stakes, the harder you check.
