Welders work at manufacturing plants and construction sites to shape and modify metal objects. They can work with items at any scale, from small pipes and car parts to massive steel beams in the infrastructure of a building. Welders use detailed specifications to complete their role in a project’s construction and carefully inspect their work for imperfections and defects to ensure the structural integrity of their projects. Welders may help set up scaffolding to reach high places or climb into tight spaces. They are educated on workplace safety practices, including the type of protective equipment they need in various situations.
