Hot Work Safety Program

UDOT's Hot Work Safety Program, required by state and federal regulations, is all about keeping you safe on the job. This program sets clear rules and procedures to prevent fires, burns, and other injuries when you're doing hot work like welding, cutting, or grinding. We've worked hard to make this program straightforward and easy to use, so you can focus on the job at hand.

Look, we know you've got a job to do, and we're not trying to just pile on more administrative responsibilities. But hot work safety is non-negotiable. Following these minimum requirements isn't just conforming to another requirement; it's about looking out for yourself and your crew. If something goes wrong, sticking to these procedures will ensure that UDOT has your back.

Here's what we've put together to make this easier:

• An Online Inspection Checklist – quick and simple to use.

• Short Online Trainer – get the info you need, when you need it.

• A Hot Work Program Feedback Form – tell us how we can make it even better.
