RESPIRATOR FIT TESTING

What is Respirator Fit Testing?
Used to ensure that an employee’s face piece respirator fits tightly and properly:

1) Qualitative Fit Test – a non-numeric pass/fail test that relies on the employee’s sense of taste or smell, or his/her reaction to a substance (test agent) in order to detect leakage into the respirator facepiece.

2) Quantitative Fit Test – utilizes a machine to measure the amount of leakage into the facepiece, instead of relying on senses.

Additionally, prior to respirator use, employers must provide the respirator clearance questionnaire to any employee required to wear a respirator at work to ensure that each employee is medically able to do so.
