Work involving exposure to heat

In English, you've got to explain this in more detail than it appears in Swedish. It can't simply be translated as 'hot work'.

Hot work

Too late, I know, but this is not for points but for future reference - FYI - only.

In fire protection terms, "hot work" is actually commonly used at least in the US, as you can see if you google and review some sites.
