A hot work permit is required for any work involving open flames or sparks. The permit must be completed by a competent safety officer and posted at the work site. It outlines the required precautions and approvals needed before hot work can begin.

The area must be inspected for combustibles and fire hazards. Combustibles must be removed or protected. Fire detection and suppression equipment must be available. The work area and any enclosed equipment must be cleaned of combustibles.

A fire watch will monitor the hot work area during and for 30 minutes after work. They must be equipped with a fire extinguisher and trained in its use. They may need to monitor adjoining areas as well.
