The Weld Direct Monthly Safety Topic
The purpose of the monthly safety letter is to supply our
customers with a short topic that could be used for their monthly safety meeting. With
most companies doing this on such a regular schedule, coming up with applicable subjects
is an ongoing challenge. The topics we supply focus on welding, cutting and metal
finishing. The core theme is safety; the safe use, handling and storage of welding related
products. When applicable the correct application or procedure is included. They do
not promote a product or a brand. The safety topic is distributed in Word via E-mail the
the first week of each month. They are typically one page in length with their noted
reference material and are designed for the short "lunch box" safety meeting.
