The same record can feed AI prompts so generated drafts, summaries and management reporting use KY, 労働安全衛生 and the surrounding local terminology.
- Prefer KY for the primary safety document label in Japan.
- Use Risk Assessment, Work Procedure, KY Meeting and SDS where those concepts appear.
- Format dates as YYYY/MM/DD, currency as JPY and units as metric.
- Anchor references to Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, local regulations and local standards without presenting static copy as legal advice.

Official vocabulary
Ground the wording in public safety language.
Use KY, Risk Assessment, Work Procedure, JPY and metric unit context for Japanese contractor teams. These sources are vocabulary anchors, not legal advice, and teams should still review outputs against their own duties, contracts and competent advice.
