Hot Work Guidelines
Sensible precautions – that’s all it takes to prevent a hot work fire or explosion. The goal of every hot work program should be to prevent hot work ignition sources from coming into contact with combustible and flammable material. When such a program is conducted properly, hot work incidents can be prevented. Download the Guide to Hot Work Loss Prevention below to learn more.
