Construction Safety Guardrails

## When NOT to Use Copilot on Site

**NEVER use Copilot for:**
- Safety authorization or permit-to-work
- Quality inspection sign-offs
- Field measurements or as-built verification
- Equipment operation guidance
- Incident investigation
- Site access decisions
- Material acceptance
- LOTO (Lock-Out/Tag-Out) procedures

**Golden Rule:** Copilot informs — site engineers verify on the ground.

**Critical Reminder:**
No AI output replaces physical inspection, measurement, or site-specific judgment.

**What Copilot IS good for on site:**
- Finding method statements and procedures
- Drafting daily reports
- Searching for precedent issues
- Summarizing coordination discussions

**Mobile Tips:**
- Keep prompts short and specific
- Ask for document links rather than full content
- Never let Copilot delay safety-critical actions
