BS EN ISO 14731:2006 Welding coordination. Tasks and responsibilities
What is BS EN ISO 14731:2006?This British Standard helps to ensure the end welded join is safe and performs as it should in service. BS EN ISO 14731:2006 sets out the tasks and responsibilities of the personnel dealing with all the production processes and welding-related activities, such as planning, execution and supervision. The standard also looks at the job specifications of joining processes and staff involved in coordination, management operations and quality assurance.
How does it work?BS EN ISO 14731:2006 defines the job specifications for all welding personnel. This includes a comprehensive summary of the tasks and responsibilities associated with each job description. The allocated responsibilities for each role are assigned according to a staff member’s position in the welding organisation. The standard also looks at their level of authorisation needed to fulfil their tasks – such as procedure specification and supervision reports.
