RESPIRATORY AND FIT TRAINING

If engineering controls are not used to abate respiratory hazards, then respiratory protection must be provided to your workers.  PTP can provide guidance on respirator choices and update your written program.  We can also provide annual training and fit testing to those affected by this standard.  Our training program meets the compliance requirements of 29CFR §1910.134, and includes the following topics:

• Introduction to OSHA requirements

• Written program requirements

• Types of contaminants

• Various types and limitations of respirators

• Medical surveillance and criteria for clearance

• Procedures for wearing and caring for respirators

• Fit checks and annual fit testing
