Face Fitting Service

Product Code: AC020A

<p>\n <strong>Why?</strong></p>\n<p>\n Over the years, awareness to Occupational Health has greatly improved. Misuse of Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE) has been fairly commonplace. From facial hair interfering with the seal on the face to tearing off the bottom strap of the respirator, to burning holes in the filter, allowing the wearer to smoke through it, has been common practice.</p>\n<p>\n Legislation, through the COSHH Approved Code of Practice (ACoP) has been put in place in an attempt to eliminate this abuse and improve awareness even further.</p>\n<p>\n This Face Fit Test Kit has been developed using the structure as laid down in HSE 282/28 Document. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) suggest that Qualitative Face Fit Testing should be conducted on all 'tight fitting' filtering face pieces and half mask respirators.</p>\n<p>\n <strong>How?</strong></p>\n<p>\n Our package is that we would issue a Fit Test Kit (details as below), one or two trained personnel from Vet Tech and an expert from the respiratory mask industry would visit your premises for one day.

The day would comprise of training those who would be carrying out the fit testing in house. During the day we would also supervise the 'Fit Testers' in testing as many staff as possible.</p>\n<p>\n We would then issue the 'Fit Testers' certificates to show they are competently trained in the use of the Fit Test Apparatus.</p>\n<p>\n The package can be either a full or half day service depending on staff numbers. We also issue mask samples free of charge for testing throughout the process.</p>\n<p>\n <strong>What Next?</strong></p>\n<p>\n Simply order the Face Test Kit using the details below and someone from Vet Tech Solutions will be in touch to arrange a mutually convenient date and time.</p>\n
