This short course provides you with an introduction to hot work, the hazards associated with it and controls that can be put in place to minimise these hazards.
The course covers what is meant by hot work, including activities involving open flames or other heat sources, sparks, or flame-producing equipment.
Hot works can be extremely hazardous if not executed correctly, so it is of paramount importance that all workers undertaking hot works understand the hazards involved and the safety precautions they must take in their day-to-day work.
Following on from this the course sets out the hazards associated with such works, explores the controls that can be put in place to keep your workplace safer and finishes by explaining why you should use a permit to work scheme for hot work activities.
Written in our straightforward, easy to understand style, this course provides you with all the information they need to help keep everyone safe in the workplace.
This course is aimed at those in any industry that are responsible for and the use of open fires, flames and work involving the application of heat by means of tools.
Understanding the risks and how to protect yourself from Hot Works and the hazards associated with Hot Works
For those needing further safety training, courses such as PUWER, Working safely and PPE should be completed alongside this one. For Supervisors that want to continue to enhance their skills, courses such as Introduction to Risk Assessment or Leadership Skills would make great next steps.
Training is not always the answer. A course covers awareness. Where the law asks for a competent person, a written risk assessment or a system you can evidence, training on its own will not close the gap. Tell us what you are trying to satisfy and we will say plainly whether this course does it.
Questions
Buy it online and the learner gets their login straight away. If you are booking for more than one person, or for several different courses, send us the list and we will quote for the group rather than charging person by person.
It is self paced, so learners can stop and pick up where they left off. The time shown is video content and does not count thinking time on the questions.
Yes. A certificate is issued once the learner passes, and you can download records for everyone you have enrolled.
Yes, per learner and excluding VAT. Group rates are better than the published price, so ask before booking a team.
For awareness it often is. Where a duty needs a competent person, a risk assessment or a documented system, training alone will not close it. If you are not sure which side of that line you are on, ask us before buying.
Next step
Tell us what you are trying to cover and how many people need it. We will tell you which courses do the job, whether a bundle works out cheaper, and where a course on its own will not satisfy the duty you are actually under.
