This program establishes written procedures to prevent fires resulting from temporary operations involving an open flame or that produces heat, sparks, or hot slag. This includes (but is not limited to) brazing, cutting, grinding, soldering, thawing pipes, torch-applied roofing, thermal spraying, adhesive bonding and welding. The Hot Work Program requires the issuance of a Hot Work Permit before beginning work.
