Did you know that fit testing should be conducted annually as part of your respiratory protection program? Fit testing measures that an adequate seal between the respirator and the user's face is achieved. There are many different face profiles so regular fit testing and proper mask selection is important to achieve a high level of protection for employees. Proper fit testing is essential for maintaining safety standards and compliance.

Knowing what respiratory protection is needed for the specific environment and application can be a challenging task, often confused by abbreviations and acronyms. Understanding key abbreviations is crucial for navigating respiratory protection guidelines and equipment. Here are some essential terms: ? RPE (Respiratory Protective Equipment): Devices like masks and respirators are designed to protect the wearer from inhaling hazardous substances. ? HM – Half Masks are a type of reusable face mask that fit over the nose and mouth but do not protect the eyes or upper part of the face. ? FFM – Full Face Masks are another type of reusable mask, but offer protection to the respiratory system, nose, mouth, and eyes. They require filters, which can vary depending on the protection level needed.? ? N95 respirators: Specifically for the United States, an N95 respirator is a disposable or reusable respirator that meets the NIOSH N95 standard for air filtration, filtering at least 95% of airborne particles. The edges of an N95 respirator are designed to form a seal around the nose and mouth and achieve a very efficient filtration of airborne particles. Still not sure?

What Is Mask Fit Testing and Fit Checking? As simply as we can get: A Fit test is to determine the mask is the correct size, make or model and that an adequate seal was achieved and maintained during motion. A Fit check is self-conducted by the wearer after donning their respiratory protective equipment (RPE) to ensure you have put it on correctly and achieved the appropriate seal each time you wear it. A 'fit check' aka 'user seal check' is required to be performed by the wearer prior to entering areas of known airborne contamination. Nonetheless, both are vital for your respiratory health. #FitTestAustralia #RespiratoryHealth #FitCheck
