Case Study: A welder who had not worked in quite a while was given a job to arc-weld fixtures on a ship. He had previously stored his welding PPE in a gang box. He found his welding hood at the bottom of the box, briefly inspected it, and began work. That night he began experiencing eye pain, which grew in intensity. Upon seeking medical treatment, he was diagnosed with welder's flash, caused by exposure to ultraviolet radiation that penetrated a small crack in the old hood.
Key Takeaways: Employees should always inspect PPE before beginning work. By holding the hood up to the light, it is possible to see small cracks. PPE with cracks or wear should be immediately replaced.

Governing Regulations
The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 created the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). OSHA, an agency of the U.S. Department of Labor, is charged with the enforcement of safety and health conditions of workers through the use of regulations published in the Code of Federal Regulations. OSHA regulations are published in Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Part 1910 addresses general industry standards, while Part 1926 is designated for construction industry standards. This course covers the standards applicable to both.

Employers are responsible for training new personnel before assigning them to tasks that may expose them to hazards such as chemical, environmental, radiological, or mechanical irritants and hazards.
To ensure compliance with eye/face protection, safety training must be conducted whenever the employer has reason to believe that any affected employee who has already been trained does not have the understanding and skill required to work safely, per 29 CFR 1910.132(f). Circumstances requiring retraining include, but are not limited to, changes in the workplace or types of PPE, as well as inadequacies in an affected employee's knowledge or use of assigned PPE are observed. This face and eye protection safety training meets these training requirements.
