Hot Work - Grinding

The Hot Work - Grinding Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) outlines the main hazards and risks associated with the use of angle and wheel grinders in areas where there is a risk of fire due to the risk of ignition of flammable materials in areas from grinding sparks where the work is being carried out.

The SWMS provides details of safety inspections required of the plant before use, and the safety precautions to be observed when using grinders in workplaces and on sites where there is a risk of fire due to the use of the equipment.
