The HSE have recently been inspecting premises that undertake welding.
There is no known safe level of exposure to welding fume, including that from mild steel welding.
The HSE will no longer accept any welding that is undertaken without suitable control measures irrespective of duration, frequency, or if done outdoors.
Our updated one-page summary explains what the HSE expect of employers and duty-holders, what they need to do to ensure compliance, and the health risks faced if the exposure is not properly controlled.
