If you’ve recently been told by OSHA that your company isn’t in compliance with respirator fit testing requirements, you’re not alone — and you’re not stuck. At DOTDOC, we specialize in helping businesses quickly correct compliance gaps and protect their employees with proper, professional fit testing.
Under OSHA standard 29 CFR 1910.134, any employee who uses a tight-fitting respirator must complete a fit test:
Before first wearing the respirator on the job
Annually thereafter
Any time a new make, model, or size is introduced
Or when an employee experiences facial changes (weight change, dental work, scarring, etc.)
Common reasons for citations include: missing documentation, expired fit tests, or testing the wrong respirator model. Even small oversights can trigger violations, because an improper seal means the respirator may not provide adequate protection.
We make it simple to get your workplace back on track. DOTDOC offers both qualitative and quantitative respirator fit testing — including N95 — so you can meet OSHA standards quickly and confidently.
