When creating a fire safety plan, what must the S-56 manager identify regarding construction operations?

The identification of potential fire hazards is a critical component of creating a fire safety plan for construction operations. This process involves assessing the entire site and understanding the unique risks associated with the materials and activities present. Fire hazards can include flammable materials, electrical installations, hot work operations, and temporary structures that may affect fire spread. By identifying these hazards, the S-56 manager can implement appropriate safety measures, such as establishing fire watch protocols, maintaining fire extinguishing equipment, or designing an evacuation plan to protect workers and property in case of a fire. Understanding potential fire hazards ensures the safety of personnel and helps to prevent incidents that could lead to significant damage and injury.
