MASK FIT TESTING – A DEEP DIVE

In the field of occupational health and safety, ensuring the protection of workers’ lungs across various industries is paramount. Respirator fit testing is a key practice in this effort, as it ensures that respiratory protective equipment (RPE) creates a secure seal against airborne contaminants.

Complying with Australian standards AS/NZS 1715:2009, respirator fit testing is essential for verifying the effectiveness and compliance of these vital safety measures.

Amare Safety currently only offers respirator fit testing at Sydney Seven Hills location or flexibility for businesses and individuals in Sydney Metro with on-site visits.  We do test P2 and P3 which relates to Half Face (P2) and Full Face (P3) Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE).   As more sites become available we will update and advise our customers of new locations.

Why is it important to have your respirator tested

Regulatory Adherence: Respirator fit testing is not just a suggestion; it’s often a regulatory requirement. Standards such as AS/NZS 1715:2009 provide guidelines that workplaces must follow to ensure their respiratory protective equipment meets necessary standards.

Dynamic Workplace Hazards: Industries such as mining, construction, healthcare, and manufacturing are prone to airborne contamination risks. Respirator fit testing ensures that RPE fits individual facial features properly, providing a personalized defense against these ever-changing airborne threats.

Proactive Adaptability: Annual mask fit testing is not merely a routine task; it’s a proactive approach to adapting to changes. Whether it’s a new type of respirator, changes in facial features, or shifts in workplace conditions, fit testing ensures that RPE remains effective.

Clean-Shaven Vitality: The requirement to be clean-shaven for a fit test is not just about grooming. It’s a crucial factor for ensuring the seal between the mask and face is effective, minimizing the risk of contaminants breaching the RPE.
