Face Fit Testing
Workplace testing plays a crucial role in maintaining
a safe and healthy work environment. These
assessments
go
beyond
traditional
medical
examinations and focus on specific aspects of
employee health and safety relevant to the
workplace.
Latus can provide expert guidance on which tests
are appropriate for specific roles and workplaces,
ensuring that all assessments are conducted in
accordance
with
best
practices
and
legal
requirements, and provide clear and concise advice
to employees based on the test results.
Face Fit Testing is the process and testing of
ensuring the correct fit of RPE (Respiratory
Protective Equipment).
Certain job roles and industries require employees
to wear RPE in order to protect them from various
harmful environments such as dust and fumes. If
their RPE is not correctly fitted, then the employee
could potentially be exposed to hazardous
substances, causing ill-health.
RPE Face-Fit-Testing is carried out either on-site or at one of our clinics by a
fully trained, qualified and experienced professional.
Employer Face-Fit Test Obligations:
A face-fit-test is a legal duty of the employer
A risk assessment should be carried out by the employer
The RPE required is matched to the hazard
