Weekly Clinics – Public respirator fit testing
Next Training date:

We are conducting weekly ‘fit testing’ clinics for N95 respirators, half- and full-face masks or respirators.

 Please contact our office at 416-283-7233 or safety@actfirstsafety.ca for more information and to schedule an appointment.

Pre-screening of users and infection prevention and control protocols are in place during these clinics. In addition, clinics will be met with limited enrollment, social distancing and infection prevention procedures.

On-site sessions at your location may be arranged under these same strict guidelines.

Who should attend: Any worker who needs to wear a respirator requires fit testing prior to using the respirator for the first time. 

Fit testing is required at least annually, but should not exceed two years and should be conducted on each brand and size a user might wear.

From time to time, Act First Safety trains key staff members on how to conduct fit testing for their workers. Moreover, fit testers are required to meet the definition of competency under the Occupational Health and Safety Act to perform fit testing on others.

Act First Safety has developed a comprehensive, turnkey Respiratory Fit Testing training program. The program seamlessly combines theoretical knowledge, practical application, and equipment requirements to ensure employers provide optimal protection for their workers. 

Additionally, it offers the convenience of an internal fit tester. 

Our instructors are adept at delivering training across various industry sectors, including industrial, construction, and healthcare, and are proficient in multiple fit test methods.

This training is conducted in public sessions at our Scarborough location, a customized program at your location and via webinar.
