Respiratory Protection Program (Fit Testing)

Respiratory Protection Program (Fit Testing)

You should be fit tested to make sure your Respiratory Protection Gear provides an effective seal if:

• Mandatory at work for protection against Airborne Viruses.
• Required respirator at the industrial workplace.
• N95 or Surgical mask during emergency response activities.
• N95 or Surgical mask at the Medical or Dental or other health care clinics.

That seal (or ‘fit’) lets you know your respirator will give you the proper level of protection when you need it.
A fit test verifies you are using the right make, model and size of respirator. Above that, it serves as a training tool to show proper use and assess the comfort of the respirator.

Respirators that need a fit test include:
• Filtering facepieces such as N95
• Half-face respirator
• Full-face respirator
• SCBA’s
