tickboxes
Form option markers
Tickboxes is the plural of tickbox, a small square on a form that you mark with a check or X to indicate a selection.
British English for what Americans call checkboxes.
Figuratively, tickbox describes perfunctory compliance—going through motions without substance: a tickbox exercise, tickbox diversity.
