The other protective materials to be used in hazardous circumstances are as
follows:
• Fire resistant clothing
• Leg dusters
• Aprons
• Leather arm covers and shoulder cloaks
• A cap worn under the welding mask
Gloves made of fire-resistant materials such as leather etc. must to be worn
without fail, in order to protect the hands against burns, cuts and scratches.
Additionally, the gloves made of fire-resistant materials such as leather etc. have to
be robust and dry to ensure protection against electrical shock.
Noise:
Ear protection should be used for protecting the ears against sparks and molten
metal as well as loss of hearing caused by the noise of the welding machine. When
the noise level in the work environment reaches a disturbing level for the ears and
causes head ache, a hearing problem may be experienced. Ear protection must
be used immediately in such cases. The loss of hearing may not be evident until a
test is conducted, but treatment after that point may also be too late.
Importance and Cleanliness of Working Environment:
The order and cleanliness of the work environment is equally important as
maintaining the welding machine. The degree of hazard increases along with the
number of the employees. Despite reading the warning notes about the machine
and taking the measures required, someone tripping on a live cable in the work
environment could still create the risk of electric shock, contact with hot metals or
falling down.
All the equipment, cables, hoses and gas cylinders must be kept away from the
floors, corridors and stairs etc. with heavy traffic. The environment must be kept
orderly and neat and the work environment must be cleaned after the welding
works are finished. This will improve the work efficiency along with work safety.
Moreover, somebody in the work environment my accidentally step in to the weld
bath; therefore barriers should be placed around the area during the welding
works.

ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL: Electrical shock is the most serious risk that the
welding operator might face frequently. Contact with the live electrical materials
can lead to injuries, death, electrical shocks or sudden falls by reflex. Do not touch
the electrode, grounding wire or work piece under voltage attached to the
