Respirator Qualitative Fit Test Description: A pass/fail fit test to assess the adequacy of respirator fit that relies on the individual’s response to the test agent. Qualitative Fit Testing may only be used to fit test negative pressure APRs that must achieve a fit factor or 100 or less. A respiratory fit test is needed to determine the proper match between the facepiece of the respirator and the face of the user.
Note: OSHA requires employees that are exposed to a concentration of an airborne
contaminant that would be hazardous to their safety or health, to use respiratory protection and pass a respirator fit test before use of a respirator.
Who Should Attend: Required for employees who use respirators for protection from atmospheric hazards initially and annually.
Important Considerations
Medical Certificate Requirements: Participants must bring their current Medical Certificate for Respirator Use which they will have received after completing a Medical Questionnaire or Evaluation. Should you need assistance with medical clearance we recommend that you contact your local occupational medicine clinic or visit 3M Online Respirator Medical Evaluation.
Personal Respirator Requirements: Participants must bring their own respirator for fit testing. Respirator sharing is not permissible under the law. Please ensure respirators are clean and in like new condition with no damage. If we will be conducting an initial respirator fit test the employer will need to provide a supply of respirators in all sizes & P100 cartridges for each respirator.
Respirator Seal Requirements: The test shall not be conducted if there is any hair growth between the skin and the facepiece sealing surface, such as stubble beard growth, beard, mustache, or sideburns which cross the respirator sealing surface. If the participant currently has regular facial hair growth, they will need to be clean shaven prior to prepare for fit test.
Personal Protective Equipment: Fit test should be performed while the participant is wearing safety equipment that may could interfere with respirator fit during actual respirator use. We recommend participants bring their other personal protective equipment including hard hat, eye wear, face shield, welding hood, spray sock, coveralls, etc.
Testing Time: Approximately 30 minutes per participant. We will be covering a great deal of information in a short period of time; your punctuality will be greatly appreciated.
