The OSHA Welding, Cutting, and Brazing for Construction Training is designed to provide workers in the construction industry with the necessary awareness-level knowledge to safely perform welding, cutting, and brazing operations. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has specific regulations and guidelines in place to protect workers from hazards associated with these activities.

The training is intended to familiarize learners with the hazards and risks involved in these operations, such as toxic fumes, burns, electrical hazards, and eye injuries. The training emphasizes the proper selection and use of personal protective equipment (PPE) like welding helmets, gloves, goggles, and protective clothing. Workers are also trained in safe operations, inspection, and maintenance of equipment, including handling, storing gas cylinders, and correctly using welding machines and torches. Fire safety measures are covered, such as understanding flammability, using fire extinguishers, and implementing fire watch procedures. Proper ventilation techniques to control exposure to hazardous fumes and gases are taught. The training highlights safe work practices like maintaining a clean work area, securing workpieces, and following proper procedures for equipment operation and storage.

Welding, Cutting, and Brazing are addressed in specific OSHA standards for the general industry (29 CFR 1910 Subparts I, Q, and Z), construction industry (29 CFR 1926 Subparts J and Z), and maritime (29 CFR 1915 Subpart D, I, G, P, and Z).

Please note: This training does not supersede or substitute for any local or state laws, codes, ordinances, regulations, or amendments thereto. This training should only be used as a nonbinding supplement to a jurisdiction’s requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

All our courses are designed to take a specific amount of time. However, some students may get through this online training course much faster than others. This training course will take around one hour to complete.

The training requirements for OSHA welding in construction standards can be found in 29 CFR 1926 Subpart J. These standards mandate that employers provide thorough operating instructions for both gas and arc welding and cutting processes. Gas welders and cutters must be instructed in the safe use of fuel gas, as specified in 29 CFR 1926.350(d). Similarly, employees engaged in arc welding and cutting must receive instruction on safe practices in accordance with 29 CFR 1926.351(d). If welders are working with chromium or cadmium, they must receive specific training as outlined in 29 CFR 1926.1126(j) or 29 CFR 1926.1127(m), respectively.
Additionally, employers may need to train specific personnel in fire hazards and the appropriate use of firefighting equipment relevant to their operations. Personnel assigned to fire protection during welding, cutting, or heating operations must undergo training to identify fire hazards and know how to effectively utilize firefighting equipment. In cases where standard fire prevention measures are insufficient, additional individuals trained in fire hazards and firefighting equipment must be present to prevent fires.

Welding, cutting, and brazing operations generate high levels of heat, giving rise to multiple hazards, including the presence of toxic fumes, gases, and the potential for fires. Additionally, welding operations are frequently performed in confined spaces, increasing associated risks. Therefore, workers must understand these potential safety and health concerns and adopt appropriate measures to mitigate them effectively.

The certification has 12-month validity and can be maintained by re-taking this same course, annually, thereafter.

The course meets and exceeds the compliance requirements of OSHA’s Construction Industry Regulations 29 CFR 1926 Subpart J and 29 CFR 1926 Subpart Z.

This training course is designed for all personnel, regardless of their position or level of experience, who are involved in welding, cutting, or brazing activities at construction sites of various sizes.

Employers are obligated to provide training to workers involved in welding, cutting, and brazing tasks. This training should be provided before commencing such operations and extended to new employees when they first join the organization. Additionally, refresher training must be administered as necessary to ensure the knowledge and skills remain current.

On successful completion of the final examination of the OSHA Welding, Cutting, and Brazing for Construction Training course, you will be able to immediately download, save, or print your Course Completion Certificate in PDF format.
