Face Fit Testing for Industry: If your job requires you to wear RPE, under Regulation INDG479 of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, you must prove that mask fits the wearer.
The only way to do this is by undertaking a Face Fit Test.
The test takes around 20 minutes and involves the wearer undertaking various actions to simulate working with the mask. This puts the seal under pressure and shows us whether the Mask fits, or not.
The far most common factor of mask failure is incorrect sizing and incorrect fitting. Our tester will familiarize you with how to fit, and maintain your RPE, as well as provide you with all the required documentation on successful completion of the Fit Test.

As we move into the first year of a new decade, several trends are taking shape that will influence OSH during the next few years and beyond.
High-Tech Workplace Safety ProgramsOver the last few years, much of the focus of workplace safety and health programs have been on introducing high-tech tools and methods of training and leadership.
In 2020 and beyond, expect to see more safety programs that incorporate both technological and personalized solutions; for example, safety professionals may spend more time with their organization's workers themselves, offering coaching during real-life situations.
As a result, many safety professionals are being charged with overseeing all aspects of OSH in an organization, and they need to approach their work from multiple perspectives.
Greater Focus on Total HealthTraditionally, OSH has focused on keeping individuals safe at work and protecting them from the risks of their job.
In 2011, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health launched the Total Worker Health Program, an initiative designed to support the overall health and well-being of workers both on the job and off the clock.
