We asked ChatGPT to write a company HR policy – and the results were promising

Since this generative AI technology is so new, there isn’t a lot of research about how it can be used by companies yet.

Key Points: 
  • Since this generative AI technology is so new, there isn’t a lot of research about how it can be used by companies yet.
  • So we conducted an experiment to see what kind of help an AI assistant like ChatGPT could provide when it comes to writing policies.
  • We found that, although it didn’t give the most creative responses, ChatGPT could be a useful tool for helping small businesses to create standard HR policy documents.
  • This also helped determine when the AI was “hallucinating” – or making up plausible results based on little or no evidence.

The first test

    • Asking the same query coupled with the index from the seven existing EDI policies produced a far more concise list of responses.
    • For example, one of its points was: “supporting the policy with the Board of Trustees and senior management”.

A tougher test

    • Its first paragraph showed potential, using inclusive pronouns and including a series of statements that set out good practice.
    • But by the second and third sentences a preference for joining separate points with “and” indicated a fairly mechanical reworking of the previous bullet points.
    • “Thrip and Wear Associates is committed to creating an inclusive and diverse workplace that encourages and celebrates the unique contributions of all our employees.
    • We are dedicated to providing equal opportunities for all employees and eliminating any form of unlawful discrimination.

Solving challenges with ChatGPT

    • We then presented details of a made-up clothing manufacturer and challenged ChatGPT to list the key actions for a new EDI policy for the company.
    • ChatGPT’s response repeated the points it had listed for the key themes it had previously found within the existing seven EDI policies.
    • As such, the general ChatGPT interface works best for business policy writing.

The last test

    • It’s response:
      Equal rights for all

      Diversity and inclusion

      A better future awaits.

    • This answer certainly ticks a lot of EDI boxes when it comes to vocabulary, but it doesn’t really mean much.
