Hi,

I am curious about the this which I want the people of the forum to make me clear asap;
In the gold refining process, There will be many hot things and they will be dangerous to the workers.
Do they wear the boots which will be protected them by the fire items and more?

As I seen they will cover all the body by the clothes or some more protective things. The main thing to protect their foot while they have to walk around.

Someone make me clear how do they deal with the boots. :roll: :|
 
If you are smart you do, if you live in a poor country we have seen video’s here of melt operations where the operator wears shorts and flip flops.

I always supplied steel toed boots for workers in a refinery, as well as the heat resistant aprons and arm protectors for the melt staff. But in the US any decent sized operation is monitored by OSHA and if you don’t comply you get fined! But in the end it is up to the worker to be smart and use whatever protective gear is available.
