Welding and cutting activities produce sparks or use open flames and can create potential hazards _ especially in confined spaces and process areas. When working with gas welding and cutting operations, there are a number of safety guidelines employees must follow. This program trains your employees in basic safety procedures and safe work practices to prevent injury or property damage during welding and cutting operations.

Welding in one form or another has been around for over 2,000 years. But it can still can be very dangerous without proper safety awareness. Consider the hazardous gases of an "Oxyacetylene" unit... the high voltage of "Stick" welding... or the combination of gas and electricity that powers "MIG" and "TIG" operations... flying sparks, toxic fumes, electric shock and high temperatures can be a lethal combination. This program reminds employees of the hazards associated with welding, and provides the information they need to work and weld safely

This powerful program uses six accident re-creations to remind viewers that welding and cutting operations are inherently dangerous and that workers who weld must follow all safety rules to protect themselves from serious injury or death.

Like many industrial processes, welding can be very dangerous. Whether an employee is working with the hazardous gases of an "oxyacetylene" unit... the high voltage of "stick welding"... or the combination of gas and electricity that powers "MIG" and "TIG" operations... flying sparks, toxic fumes, electric shock and high temperatures are just some of the things that can make welding a dangerous proposition. This training program will remind your employees that there are indeed a number of hazards associated with welding, and provide the information they need to work safely when involved with welding operations.

When working with gas welding and cutting operations, there are many potential hazards that can cause accidents, and numerous safety procedures that must be followed. This program, in conjunction with company guidelines, policies, and procedures, helps provide the training required to safely perform gas welding and cutting operations.
