| danlan2 | Should IV be done before V and VI? |
| Slothrop | Why aren't III and IV done also, even if one needs to do V and VI? |
| Charlie | "may have violated" does not necessarily mean the employee has violated the standards. Therefore you cannot warn the employee. You need to investigate first. IV should not be chosen. III: you cannot report anything to your boss. You should try to resolve the issue yourself as it's your responsibility. |
| rethan | Good explanaion Charlie. Thanks |
| Shalva | Really good question. It shows that every word has utmost importance in these tests. |

| johntan1979 | III is encouraged, but not required. |
| isalya | May be III would be the case if told to report a potential misconduct |
I am happy to say that I passed! Your study notes certainly helped prepare me for what was the most difficult exam I had ever taken.
