ABSTRACT
This case study was conducted at Kukurantumi in the Eastern Region of Ghana. The population of the research involved the artisans (welders) comprising of workshop owner, master welder and the apprentices. In reference to the diagnostic test conducted, the analysis in chapter four showed relatively the poor observance of safety in the welding and fabrication in the workshops. The researcher used 60 people for the sample size and simple random sampling technique was employed. The study used questionnaire, interview and observation in collecting the data. The finding revealed that, there were carelessness on the part of the welders, workshop organization was poor and there was no compliance of regulation. Finally there were less attempted measures made to ensure safety for the workshop owners. In view of the above problems the researcher has recommended the following measures to ensure the observance of safety in the welding and fabrication workshop. The welders need to be mobilized into an association for training programmes to be organized for them on the need to observance of safety precaution in the work they do at various places. Workshop owners should ensure that proper and adequate logistics are provided for artisans to promote safety at the workshop and workplaces. In conclusion the researcher wish to say that proper care and maintenance practice should be promoted in the various welding workshops in order to prevent accidents occurring and also it is to ensure effectiveness and efficiency in the working areas of welders which will bring development in their works as well as the country Ghana.
