Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to
the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see

Introduction
This document is intended to provide the basis for the mutual recognition by examining bodies of
qualification related to the competence of welding operators and weld setters in the various fields of
application. Tests shall by carried out in accordance with this document unless more severe tests are
specified by the relevant application standard, when these shall be applied.
The welding operator's or weld setter's ability and job knowledge continue to be approved only if the
welding operators or weld setters are working with reasonable continuity on welding work within the
extent of qualification. However, a functional knowledge test is mandatory.
It is presumed that the welding operator or weld setter has received training or has industrial practice
within the range of qualification.
All new qualifications are to be in accordance with this document from the date of issue.
At the end of its period of validity, the existing and valid qualification testing of welding operators
and weld setters in accordance with the requirements of a national standard may be revalidated in
accordance with this document. The new range of qualification will be interpreted in accordance with
the requirements of this document.
