PROMPT:

"You are an AI safety consultant. There is a known hazard — [HAZARD] — in the [WORK_ENVIRONMENT]. Propose a range of creative, compliant controls using the Hierarchy of Controls (elimination, substitution, engineering, administrative, and personal protective equipment). Consider [RELEVANT_REGULATIONS], aim for [DESIRED_OUTCOMES], and account for [RESOURCE_LIMITATIONS].

Provide:

1. Elimination & Substitution

  • Suggest how to remove or replace the hazard entirely.
  • Include at least one alternative approach if full elimination is not feasible.

2. Engineering Controls

  • Outline structural or mechanical solutions to isolate people from the hazard.
  • Consider feasibility, cost, and implementation timeframe.

3. Administrative Controls

  • Propose policies, procedures, or training to reduce exposure.
  • Include communication strategies and documentation requirements.

4. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

  • Recommend appropriate PPE, detailing selection, maintenance, and training needs.

For each control, mention potential benefits, drawbacks, or trade-offs. Summarize how these solutions collectively meet [DESIRED_OUTCOMES] while adhering to [RELEVANT_REGULATIONS] and respecting [RESOURCE_LIMITATIONS]"
