Throughout the US, in construction, manufacturing and welding industries, there are more than 80 different types of welding procedures used daily. Each type of the welding process carries a different risk or potential hazard for the employee and surrounding employees. It is essential that welders are made aware of the Welding Safety Equipment and Welding Cutting Safety regulations mandated by OSHA. These welding safety programs generally cover the Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) requirements, the types of welding operations, environment safety, and common injuries associated to welding. Our  €œOSHA Welding safety video€ training products remind employees that there are indeed, a number of hazards associated with welding equipment , and provide the information  he or she needs to work safely when involved with welding operations.

OSHA's Position On Welding Safety Training

In U.S. industries involving manufacturing, construction and welding you can find over 80 different types of welding procedures that are utilized on a daily basis. Each one of these procedures carries a different set of potential hazards/risks that involve both the welder and those near their work area. The American Bureau of Labor Statistics has estimated that there are 365,000 welding accidents each year and has recently reported 40 annual fatalities for welding, soldering and brazing workers, which translates into 8.8 deaths per applicable 100,000 full-time workers. OSHA has mandated specific requirements for industry welding procedures. The first and foremost item within these regulations involves the use of the appropriate protective equipment. Here, at Compliance and Safety, we offer a complete set of welding training materials that are designed to meet the entire set of mandatory OSHA directives. The topics that are covered include:
