important job functions allow the characterization and prevention of risks to health and safety for welders, but e iven the variety of jobs, it is almost impossible to predict all threats appear. Welders usually work in facilities, steel, heavy machinery, ships, or make special equipment, and there are industries, the different opportunity s such as automotive, forestry, industries providing construction and mining. Safety and health risks under several categories depending on the influence of the type of chemicals and material safety process and health management are discussed.
Welders may be exposed to vapors resulting from the technological process: metal oxides, fluorides and silicates. Particular caution is advised when action is a risk of welders inhaling these fumes are harmful to human health should be. Vapors from the excessive heat of metal, that education can by some fine solid particles by condensation, and they usually contain chemicals from the electrodes and the metal coating or paint is exposed to the welding process. Compressed gases such as Acetylene and flammable liquid fuels present other potential hazards for welders;. Compliance with all rules and safety procedures should, therefore, the number of accidents to a minimum risk
ergonomics must also be in terms of security policy welder used for sprains many strains are mentioned and musculoskeletal deficits r & # XE9; sulting working conditions. Welders are often heavy objects, work in uncomfortable positions for long periods or repeated requests, the excessive regularly LY straining the muscles and bones to lift. Also run in the category Welding physical, eye injuries most likely to occur. The use of helmets auto darkening of eye protection against the effects of ultraviolet and infrared and reduces the number of cataract cases are caused by radiation.
Modern working conditions involve the use of appropriate tools to prevent health risks of welding. Effective ventilation, carefully store flammable materials, ventilation and fire-resistant gloves and aprons are some things that welders working very much collat ; st Basic knowledge of lifting technique and the scrutiny of scaffolds and ladders to reduce the risk of accidents. For periods, not in the welding of unfavorable positions can be avoided, it is advisable to take breaks re ; LAR to take or not to a skeletal muscle disease that may be chronically develop over time.
