Response Safety Grading
Response safety grading scores model outputs across defined safety risk dimensions.
Why it matters for annotators
It enables comparable safety tracking across model versions.
Visual mental model
Response -> safety dimensions -> graded risk score.
Examples (bad vs good)
Scenario: Real annotation scenario involving Response Safety Grading
Bad: Labeling quickly without applying project rubric.
Good: Applying rubric criteria, documenting rationale, and escalating uncertainty.
Common mistakes
- Skipping guideline details for edge cases.
- Applying inconsistent criteria across similar samples.
- Avoiding escalation even when uncertain.
Submission checklist
- Read the latest guideline update before each batch.
- Apply rubric dimensions explicitly in each decision.
- Escalate ambiguous items with concise rationale.
