Six working files organise the duties of Denmark's workers' compensation insurance law into open questions a business answers from its own records.

The instrument reaches employers in Denmark, together with businesses that take on work as contractors or subcontractors, and businesses that carry out building, construction or installation work. It also reaches businesses that supply goods or services across borders into Denmark, and businesses that produce, handle or receive waste. The duties concern the reporting of accidents and occupational diseases, the investigation and treatment of reported cases, safety measures, decisions on claims and the recovery of costs.

The toolkit is a set of working files that organise this one instrument's obligations into phases of open questions a business answers from its own records, with the statutory text carried verbatim beside each duty. The files cover the duty to report, the duty to investigate and treat, the duty to secure, the duty to decide and the rules on recovery of costs. Sections are served through a connector inside Claude, and the documents that come back are dated compliance reports the business keeps in its own file.

Each file groups the duties by subject, so a business can work through the reporting of an accident, the handling of a reported occupational disease, the safety measures that follow and the recovery of costs paid out. The toolkit never gives advice and never presents a perspective; it carries what the authority wrote, organised.

Which businesses must report an accident at work under this law?

Employers must report accidents and occupational diseases that fall within the law. The first working file walks through the reporting duty and the information the report must contain, with the statutory text beside each step. A business answers the open questions from its own records.

What does the toolkit contain?

It is a set of six working files that organise the instrument's obligations into phases of open questions. Each file covers one group of duties, and the statutory text is carried verbatim beside each duty. The files are served through a connector inside Claude.

How are the working files delivered?

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

What happens after a business answers the open questions?

The documents that come back are dated compliance reports. The business keeps them in its own file. Each report records the answers given against the duties in the instrument.

Which duties does the second working file cover?

It covers the further rules on the duty to report, including the cases that follow an initial report. The open questions guide a business through what must be reported and when. The statutory text sits beside each duty.

What does the duty to investigate and treat involve?

The third working file covers the duty to investigate a reported case and to provide treatment. The open questions ask a business what it has recorded about the case and the steps taken. The answers build the dated compliance report.

What safety measures does the law require?

The fourth working file covers the duty to secure, including the measures a business must take to prevent harm. The open questions ask what has been done and what is recorded. The statutory text is set beside each duty.

How does the toolkit handle decisions on claims?

The fifth working file covers the duty to decide, including the decisions a business must make and the grounds for them. The open questions guide the business through its own records. The answers are kept in the dated compliance report.

What does the sixth working file cover?

It covers the recovery of costs paid out under the instrument. The open questions ask a business what it has paid and what it seeks to recover. The statutory text is carried beside each duty.

Does the toolkit tell a business what to do?

The toolkit never gives advice and never presents a perspective; it carries what the authority wrote, organised. The open questions are answered by the business from its own records. The dated compliance report records those answers.
