RESPIRATORY FIT TESTING AND TRAINING

About Respirators:

A respirator is a protective device that covers the nose and mouth or the entire face or head to guard the wearer against hazardous atmospheres. When employees must work in environments with insufficient oxygen or where harmful dusts, fogs, smokes, mists, fumes, gases, vapors, or sprays are present, they need respirators. These health hazards may cause cancer, lung impairment, other diseases, or death.

 OSHA and Respirator Fit Testing (Qualitative):

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires an annual respirator fit test to check a correct fit for each face, ensuring a strong  seal is set on the user to protect them from hazardous particles in the atmosphere.  

 Our Respiratory Fit Test Training Includes:
  • Hands on training on inspecting, donning, and checking seals on your respirator 
  • What is the best size of respirator for you
  • Information on the capabilities and limitations of the selected respirator
  • Knowledge to perform respirator maintenance and storage requirements
  • We perform a Qualitative Fit Test (QLFT). A qualitative fit test is a pass/fail test to assess the adequacy of respirator fit that relies on the individual’s sensory detection of a test agent, ensuring adequate protection is met.

See our calendar for upcoming trainings.
