Respirator Fit Testing is an important element in OSHA compliance.
Respirator fit tests must be taken before a worker wears a mask for the first time. The worker must also take the fit test every year after that. Fit tests must also be taken if there are changes to a person’s face that could change the fit of the respirator. These changes can include things like weight changes, dental work, face surgery or scarring.
While respirator fit tests may be easy to lose track of, it is an important element in OSHA compliance. Even more than that, the respirator fit test is an important tool in keeping your employees healthy and safe from environmental hazards. We offer quantitative fit testing services throughout the state of Connecticut.
