What are the Issues Related to Metal Fabrication
  • Here are a few of the factors that lead to
    accident or injury
  • Serious injury often relate to poor attention
    when working
  • High amount of noise can be distracting.
  • Use of chemicals and minimum ventilation can
    cause problems with breathing.
  • Poor lifting techniques can lead to back or
    similar injuries
  • cuts and scrapes from surfeit quantity of metal
    parts

Injuries Frequent in the Metal Fabrication
Industry
  • Mishaps and Injuries in Metal FabricationWhile
    dealing with material in the work place, injuries
    are usually caused. Which mostly involves bone
    and joint injuries, small injuries and severe
    condition like invertebral disc injury. Various
    other problems include problems with joint or
    muscular pain in different parts of the body.
    Nearly all issues of pulls and strains relate to
    poor handling of the material or operating in an
    awkward position. The earlier mentioned injuries
    may lead to RSI (Repetitive strain injury), OOS
    (Occupational overuse syndrome) and CTD
    (Cumulative trauma disorder).

Frequent Injuries Associated to the Use of Hand
Tools
  • Appropriate care and attention is also necessary
    when operating with hand tools. Usual complaints
    consist of chronic disorders of the hand,
    repetitive strain syndrome, musculoskeletal
    issues, and wrist tendonitis. Powered hand tools
    like grinder causes injury to the eyes as the
    powder spreads all over and can enter the eyes
    and can also create problems in breathing. A
    common problem is the vibration which can impact
    the hand and arm area. Wielding brings about poor
    air flow. Toxic gases like ozone and carbon
    monoxide are noticed during this time. Further
    issues with welding include sparks, bad work
    positions, heavy objects, and loud noises.
