About hot work

Hot work course covers all tasks where there is a risk of igniting building components or materials. The term "hot work" includes all work forms involving open flames. At the same time, it also applies to work with tools that generate heat and sparks that can ignite, where there is a risk of fire, such as angle grinders, circular saws, and tools for drying, soldering, and more.

Every year, hot work causes a number of the biggest and most expensive fires. Craftsmen and employees who use high-risk work tools do not always exercise the necessary caution or have the necessary knowledge. Therefore, insurance companies have decided to put special focus on the area.

For the company or builder affected by the fire, it can have serious consequences. The economic and production-related consequences of a fire can be very large. Although the fire damage is often covered by fire insurance, there are always many practical and economic disadvantages.

Most insurance companies have introduced a special deductible provision for hot work on property and liability insurance. Therefore, as a craftsman and building owner, you can avoid many liability risks by having the proper competence for correct hot work.

Hot work is found in many industries. This hot work training covers work in most industries such as welding, cutting and grinding work, mechanic and plate work, plumbing work, roofing work, and weed burning.

The material is based on DBI's guidelines 10, parts 1, 2, and 3.
