For a welding job, the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) would be:

  1. Eye Protection - Specifically, a welding helmet or goggles should be used to protect the eyes from harmful UV and IR radiation, as well as sparks and debris.

  2. Hearing Protection - Depending on the noise level of the welding environment, hearing protection such as earplugs or earmuffs may also be necessary to protect against potential hearing damage.

Sunglasses and a baseball hat are not suitable PPE for welding.
