Fit testing is required for all employees for N95 mask use

All employees who are required to regularly wear an N95 should be fit tested, to ensure that the mask you are wearing offers the best possible level of protection.

Our PPE Compulsory Standards require that all patient-facing employees wear an N95 mask and eye protection at a minimum. A patient-facing employee is any employee who has regular contact with patients.

Fit testing is a process during which a user trials a range of makes, models and sizes of N95 masks to find the most efficient seal for their face. Better fitting masks offer better protection from workplace respiratory hazards, including airborne infectious agents, dust, and other particles.

To book your test, please first complete the Fit Testing Consent and Medical Clearance Form. After completing the form, you will be guided to book your fit test.

Please note that if you are coming up to your 12 month re-test, we will fit test new employees first. Please be patient.
