People have been welding in one form or another for over 2,000 years. But 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. Welding Safety, available in Online and CD-ROM formats, reminds employees that there are indeed a number of hazards associated with welding, and provides the information they need to work safely when involved with welding operations.
