| A Written
Respiratory Protection Program: The first step in
providing a comprehensive, compliant respirator plan for your company, is
developing a Written Respiratory Protection Program.
Your
program should detail, at a minimum, the requirements, situations and levels of protection required for
each hazard employees encounter as well as how to properly maintain, care for
and use appropriate respirators. The written program is used as a basis for
implementing and managing your respirator program and should be shared with
each employee who is required to wear respirators. If you need information on
developing a Written respiratory Protection Plan, or would like Compliance
Solutions to develop one for your company, please send
us an email or contact us at 800-711-2706. We would be glad to
help develop
a comprehensive program at a reasonable rate. |
- Employee Training:
OSHA's respiratory protection standard (29 CFR 1910.134) requires each person
wearing a respirator to complete training BEFORE
wearing the respirator and then ANNUALY thereafter. Compliance
Solutions makes training easy with an online training course

training is available in both English and Spanish versions! For more

| Medical Clearance: Before an employee can
wear a respirator they must have a Medical Clearance (also known as a "Fit-to
Wear" Clearance) from a doctor or a
medical professional stating they are medically cleared to wear a
respirator. This process involves an extensive review of the employees
medical history and in some cases, additional testing if there are questions or
concerns related to their background. Respiratory clearances can ONLY be performed by qualified occupational
medical professionals and the cost (normally between $50 and $150) MUST be paid by the employer.

| Respirator
Fit-Testing: Once your
employees are properly trained, have received a medical clearance and have
been given an opportunity to review
your company's written Respiratory Protection Program, the final step to a
safe and complete program is a respirator fit-test. Before your employees can
use any respirator in the field, you must have the mask tested for proper fit
and seal.

Clearances at the same time and
