Respiratory Equipment Fit Testing

Many workers deal with conditions that expose them to poisonous gas or airborne contaminants, and may be required to wear personal protective equipment such as Supplied Air Breathing Apparatus (SABA) or Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA). In such instances, it is essential that such equipment be properly fitted to individual users.

HSE Integrated provides comprehensive professional fit-testing services to protect employees. Using a TSI Portacount quantitative fit technician, HSE eliminates human errors associated with other fit-testing methods. Our system is completely automated, stores all the results, and offers an instantaneous printout when tests are complete. Each employee will be issued a wallet-sized card indicating the make, model, size of mask test date and expiration date.

Convenient onsite mobile fit testing is conducted in compliance with occupational health and safety codes and in accordance with CSA standards. During each test, HSE simulates workplace scenarios associated with high-risk environments. This simulation verifies that the certified respirators will provide properly fitted protection in potentially hazardous situations

• Test list sheet indicating all employees tested, test date/expiry date, mask make and size
