1. Protect your eyes from welding light by wearing a welder's
helmet fitted with a filter shade suitable for the type of
welding you are doing. The welding process produces
intense white light, infrared and ultraviolet light, these arc
rays can burn both eyes and skin.
1.1. Consult the Welding Shade Guide in Appendix A for
the minimum shade to protect the eyes based on the
amperage and type of welding.
2. An opaque helmet will protect against the ultraviolet or
infrared light. A helmet will also protect against ejected hot
material and slag. The helmet should protect the face,
forehead, ears and neck.
3. Wear a fire-resistant head covering like a skull cap or
balaclava hood to protect your head when the faceplate is
down or when using a welding hand-held face shield.
4. Wear ventilated safety goggles beneath the welding helmet
or behind the hand-held face shield. The cooling weld bead
may fragment or eject slag that can damage the eyes,
when the helmet or hand-held face shield is not in place.
4.1 Eye protection equipment should comply with CSA
Z94.3-07 or ANSI Z87.1 standards based on the type of
work performed.
5. Wear fire resistant ear plugs when welding overhead to
prevent spatter or slag from falling into ear.
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
1. Wear a leather apron or jacket, leather welding gloves and full
foot protection. Choose clothing fabrics that resist sparks,
heat, flames and splashes of molten material. Artificial fabrics
may burn and melt, resulting in a more severe injury.
1.1 Wear welding capes and sleeves when performing
overhead welding.
