This hot works permit template helps teams control fire risk during welding and similar tasks. It guides users to check total fire ban status, determine if work is emergency-only, and stop work if required controls are not in place. The checklist covers clearing combustible materials within 15 metres, covering drains with wet fireproof blankets, confirming suitable fire extinguishers and water supply, and ensuring adequate ventilation. It also verifies welding machines and gas bottles are positioned safely from entries, and captures welder identification. Use this template to document precautions, standardize approvals, and support compliance with site hot work procedures.
