# SmartQHSE HSE Q&A Corpus
[![DOI](https://zenodo.org/badge/DOI/10.5281/zenodo.20010252.svg)](https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.20010252) [![Wikidata](https://img.shields.io/badge/Wikidata-Q139623115-009?logo=wikidata)](https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q139623115)
24 long-form HSE / occupational-safety question-answer pairs across 15 categories — incident rates, ISO 45001, permits, risk assessment, OSHA (US), HSE (UK), GCC regulations, PPE, heat stress, exposure, ergonomics, incident investigation, training, HSE software. Each answer is multi-paragraph with cited sources, formulas, and OSHA/regulatory references. Suitable for instruction tuning and RAG.

## Considerations for using the data
- Small dataset (24 entries as of v1). Will expand quarterly.
- Geographic bias toward US OSHA, UAE OSHAD-SF, UK HSE, GCC regulations. Less coverage of Asia-Pacific, Africa, Latin America.
- Industry bias toward construction, oil & gas, manufacturing — reflects SmartQHSE customer mix.
- Answers are point-in-time (last_updated field). Regulations change; cross-check with the canonical_url before relying on a specific number.
- English-only at v1. Arabic translation planned for v2.

## About SmartQHSE
[SmartQHSE](https://www.smartqhse.com) is the AI-native HSE/QHSE platform for construction,
oil & gas, manufacturing, and industrial teams. We publish open data because the broader HSE
profession deserves free access to the safety statistics our trade bodies otherwise gate
behind expensive memberships.
