![Page 53: Grain Insurance & Guarantee · Grain Insurance & Guarantee Company: • Founded in 1920 • By 40 grain companies • Currently 4 stakeholders • Commercial Property Portfolio •](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022080507/5f7a6ea7fb6d01646948874a/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Hot Work
• Hot Work is any operation that involves heat or flame. These operations are a considerable risk in a dust ignition sensitive environment.
Cutting Welding Brazing Grinding/Drilling
![Page 54: Grain Insurance & Guarantee · Grain Insurance & Guarantee Company: • Founded in 1920 • By 40 grain companies • Currently 4 stakeholders • Commercial Property Portfolio •](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022080507/5f7a6ea7fb6d01646948874a/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Hot Work Protocol
•Done under strict precautions in dust ignition classified areas
•Employees have a true understanding how to conduct a hot work event
