A set of six working files that organise the duties under Bulgaria's ЗАКОН за защита от дискриминация into open questions a firm answers from its own records, with the statutory text carried verbatim beside each duty.

The instrument reaches employers of every size, online sellers and other traders in goods and services, vocational training providers, and public bodies that set conditions for work or access to services. It also concerns producers and handlers of waste where those activities touch the terms on which people are engaged or served. The toolkit organises the duties that fall on these businesses into six working files, each built around open questions answered from the firm's own records.

The working files walk through the ban on discrimination, the conditions of work, the suitability of the workplace, the measures that encourage equal treatment, the provision of information, and the ban on discrimination in goods and services. Each section pairs an open question with the statutory text carried verbatim beside the duty it describes. Sections are served through a connector inside Claude, and the documents that come back are dated compliance reports the firm keeps in its own file.

The toolkit never gives advice and never presents a perspective; it carries what the authority wrote, organised. A firm works through the open questions at its own pace, drawing on its own records, and receives a dated compliance report for each section it completes. The reports stay in the firm's own file as a record of what was asked and what was answered.

Which businesses does this instrument apply to?

It applies to employers, to traders in goods and services including online sellers, to vocational training providers, and to public bodies that set conditions for work or access to services. Producers and handlers of waste fall within it where their activities affect the terms on which people are engaged or served. The toolkit organises the duties for these firms into six working files.

What does the first working file cover?

It covers the general ban on discrimination, setting out the grounds and the conduct the instrument prohibits. Each open question in the file is paired with the statutory text carried verbatim beside the duty it describes. A firm answers from its own records.

How are the working files delivered?

Sections are served through a connector inside Claude. The firm opens the sections it needs and works through the open questions there. Nothing is downloaded and nothing is installed.

What does the file on conditions of work ask about?

It asks about the terms on which a firm engages people, including recruitment, pay and the treatment of employees. The open questions draw on the firm's own records for each answer. The statutory text sits beside each duty.

What does the file on the suitability of the workplace cover?

It covers the adjustments a firm makes so that the workplace suits the people who work there. The open questions ask the firm to describe its own arrangements from its records. Each duty is shown with the statutory text beside it.

What is the file on encouragement about?

It covers the measures a firm takes to encourage equal treatment within its organisation. The open questions ask what the firm has done, answered from its own records. The statutory text is carried verbatim beside each duty.

What does the file on the provision of information cover?

It covers the information a firm provides to the authority and to the people it engages. The open questions ask the firm to identify what it holds and what it has supplied. Each answer is drawn from the firm's own records.

What does the file on goods and services cover?

It covers the ban on discrimination in the supply of goods and services, including the terms on which a firm offers them. The open questions ask the firm to describe its own practices from its records. The statutory text is carried verbatim beside each duty.

What does a firm receive at the end of a section?

The documents that come back are dated compliance reports. The firm keeps each report in its own file. The report records the open questions and the answers the firm gave from its records.

Does the toolkit tell a firm what to do?

The toolkit never gives advice and never presents a perspective; it carries what the authority wrote, organised. A firm reads the statutory text beside each duty and answers the open questions from its own records. The dated compliance reports stay in the firm's own file.
