| Welding
craftsmen are highly thought of members of
the construction and fabrication team and
pay for a skilled person will often reflect
the importance of the role. Major projects
such as pipelines, bridges or oil rigs cannot
be put at risk through bad workmanship. Welding
is a transferable skill not confined to one
country. Skills and qualifications obtained
in the UK are valid in Europe and Worldwide.
