A trade plans hot work in an occupied renovation area. What should the GC coordinate operationally?
Correct Answer
C) Required hot-work controls, fire watch, permits, and occupant protection before work starts
Field operations require safety and protection controls for hazardous work activities.
Why This Is the Correct Answer
Field operations require safety and protection controls for hazardous work activities.
Why the Other Options Are Wrong
Option A: Let the welder proceed if the crew can finish before lunch
Let the welder proceed if the crew can finish before lunch may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the hot work coordination exposure being tested.
Option B: Use the final cleaning checklist as the fire-watch record
Use the final cleaning checklist as the fire-watch record may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the hot work coordination exposure being tested.
Option D: Treat the owner's verbal awareness as a substitute for hot-work controls and fire-watch records
Treat the owner's verbal awareness as a substitute for hot-work controls and fire-watch records may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the hot work coordination exposure being tested.
Memory Technique
If Coordinates Welding can still reach the worker, the control is decoration.
Reference Hint
Open-book path: tab OSHA 29 CFR 1926; Contractor's Manual to Hot work planning and jobsite safety controls; match the role, timing, and required approval before choosing.
