Respirator fit testing is a vital safety measure in healthcare, firefighting, and manufacturing. It ensures a proper fit, preventing airborne contaminants from entering the user’s breathing zone. This is crucial as gaps can lead to short-term or long-term health effects and, in extreme cases, even death when exposed to hazardous substances.
Ensuring compliance with N95 or respirator fit testing is essential for legal requirements.
Employers must ensure that their employees wearing tight-fitting respirators comply with the legal protection requirements outlined in the Health and Safety Act and Ontario Regulation.
We conduct Quantitative or Qualitative Fit Tests to verify proper respirator fit.
At canaPHEM, we follow the CSA Standard CAN/CSA-Z94.4-18, Selection, Use and Care of Respirators. This standard is a recognized guideline for selecting, using, and caring for respirators, ensuring that our fit testing services are of the highest quality and meet industry standards.
Quantitative Fit Testing Services: Our main respirator fitting method is safe, hygienic, precise, and efficient. It ensures employee safety, legal compliance, risk avoidance, and productivity.
PortaCounts are used to confirm that each respirator has the right fit. There is no guesswork, no delays, and no mistakes.
Qualitative Fit Testing Services: The traditional fit testing method, available upon request, requires employees to confirm the taste and smell of test agents subjectively to ensure they are using the correct respirator and have a proper face seal. This method is widely accepted and reliable in the industry.
