FLS – Report Review & Editing Tool
​
Reviewing reports isn't just about correcting grammar. It's about making sure the report clearly documents what happened, what actions were taken, and why.
​
The FLS Report Review & Editing Tool gives first-line supervisors a structured way to review employee reports for clarity, completeness, organization, consistency, and professional writing before approving them.
​
Use it to check whether the report answers the essential questions, establishes a clear sequence of events, explains actions and decisions, identifies missing information, and communicates the incident in a way that someone who wasn't there can understand.
​
The tool also helps supervisors provide specific, useful feedback instead of simply returning a report with “fix this” or rewriting the employee's work for them.
​
The goal isn't to make every employee write exactly like you. It's to help them become stronger, more independent report writers while ensuring the documentation leaving your shift meets professional standards.
​
Don't just correct the report. Develop the report writer.
