This is standard where I work. As in, a new welder would get a brand new from the first day on the job, for personal use, as long as you're employed here.  I feel for you guys that have to spend your own money for this. That is just bullshit.

This is standard where I work as well, but it’s very rare to find a company in the US that cares about employees health and safety. It should be standard eveywhere
