My Project

When students are welding, to prevent arc burn, students need to wear the proper PPE. Welding can be dangerous and this PPE will protect them from harm. This PPE can be costly, but it is needed to be safe. In the past, I had a student who was not wearing a welding helmet. He came to school complaining about pain in his eyes. I told him to get it checked out with the doctor. When he came back to school, he told me he suffered from arc flash, blistering his eyes.
