A case of occupational asthma from fumes due to spot-welding is described. The hazards from resistance welding have been considered minimal as compared to other types of welding. This paper illustrates the possible hazards of occupational asthma among welders including those doing spot-welding. It also illustrates the difficulties encountered in identifying the specific causative agent in such cases.
