The term “hot work” refers to any labour that involves open flames, produces sparks, or can start a fire by other means. This typically includes welding, wheel or torch cutting, brazing, soldering, and grinding, but it can include other work. Because this type of work poses such a unique combination of both safety and health hazards to workers, it requires a substantial amount of controls.
