Fit Testing Sydney
If you are in the Sydney area and work in an industry that uses respiratory protective equipment (RPE), like healthcare, construction or the gas and oil industry, implementing a group fit testing program for your business will ensure your workers are kept safe and you are compliant.
What is a Group Fit Test?
A Group Fit Test is a procedure by which a trained technician can test your RPE to make sure it adequately protects against airborne hazards such as gas, dust, or disease.
In recent years, workers have become more educated about the potential for harm from airborne toxins, so many are using them already. However, their use is not standard practice yet.
As low-cost and inadequate masks flood the market, a properly implemented fit test program will ensure your workers are protected, no matter what they may encounter.
What to Expect from a Fit Test in Sydney
First, a fit test will help determine whether the RPE a user has selected is appropriate for the work they will be performing. A trained technician will observe and record information during the fit test to help determine this.
The shape and size of your face matter too. The mask must fit both the shape and size of your face to work properly. If it doesn’t, then you are not guaranteed the right level of protection.
