YOU SET THE RULES
Free time before detention (standard and extended) and the early or late grace period are blank on purpose. Enter your own carrier agreements and site rules. Until you do, detention is not flagged.

Each guide is one page with purpose, scope, roles, materials, numbered steps, safety notes, records, a "fill in for your site" box and an approval block.
