First Aid & CPR/AED, Respiratory Protection

OSHA Respiratory Protection Training
An estimated 5 million workers are required to wear respirators in 1.3 million workplaces throughout the United States. Respirators protect workers against insufficient oxygen environments, harmful dusts, fogs, smokes, mists, gases, vapors, and sprays.
These hazards may cause cancer, lung impairment, other diseases, or death. Respirators are needed to protect workers from atmospheric hazards, but they will not be effective unless they are properly used and maintained.
Safety Aspects Respirator Training was created to assist employers in complying with OSHA’s Respiratory Standards. Compliance with the OSHA Respiratory Protection Standard could avert hundreds of deaths and thousands of illnesses annually.
Safety Aspects can also provide Fit Tests for employees that are in your Respirator Program.
