Everyday weldersgo to work building and fabricating the things we use everyday, like our cellphones, cars, and office buildings. There are all kinds of welding jobs some of which take welders from under the sea to zero gravity in space. Where and how a welder works determines how much they get paid and how difficult their day-to-day requirements are.

For most welders though, the workday begins with some sense of direction. Usually they are assigned a project that has either a drawing or specifications that tell them what they need to accomplish with their project. Even though welders determine their own plans on how best to complete their project most follow a procedure like: Setup equipment, Execute the welds, and Examine the welds to ensure required standards or specifications have been met.

Safety is extremely important to a welder’s daily life. Working with hot metals, intense light, and hazardous materials requires a welder to be alert and careful on the job. Protective gear such as, shoes, goggles, hoods, protective lenses, gloves and special fire resistant clothing are all part of the uniform.
