    \r\n\t
    \r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n

    All UK employees who wear tight-fitting respiratory protective equipment (RPE) must, by now, have a certificate to prove that the protective equipment they wear during work not only fits them, but also affords them the effective protection necessary for the task being performed.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

    All face fit testing is conducted by one of our Fit2Fit accredited trainers.<\/em><\/p>","course_info":"

    Face Fit Testing Course Overview<\/h2>\r\n\r\n

    This is a method used for checking that a tight fitting face piece matches the person\u2019s facial features and seals adequately to the wearers face. It also helps to ensure that poorly fitting face pieces are not selected for use. An inadequate fit will significantly reduce the protection provided to the wearer.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

    If a fit test is not performed, then an unsatisfactory seal \/ barrier may unknowingly exist. This could allow excessive leakage of airborne contaminants into the wearer\u2019s breathing zone, even though the user is wearing a respirator correctly selected for the application.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

    Entry Requirements<\/h2>\r\n\r\n

    Persons attending MUST<\/u><\/strong> be clean shaven. The fit test cannot be carried out if there is any hair growth between the skin and the face piece sealing surface e.g. stubble beard growth, beard, moustache etc. <\/p>\r\n\r\n

    The wearer should not eat, drink (except plain water), smoke or chew gum for at least 30 minutes before the test.<\/p>","assessment":"

    There is no formal assessment however, instruction will be given by our tutor on how to recognise, inspect, test and fit a mask correctly including performing a pre-fit check. Learners will be expected to imitate these procedures correctly prior to fit testing to confirm understanding. During the fit test, led by our tutor, learners will be directed to perform several test procedures in accordance with the INDG 479 guidance to test the integrity and seal of the mask over a period of time.<\/p>","certification":"

    For those who successfully complete face fit testing, they will receive an Essential Site Skills digital certificate detailing the type, make and model of the respirator and also a Qualitative Fit Test employee record, both of which include the Fit2Fit logo identifying the fit test was done by a Fit2Fit Accredited Trainer. These are valid for 2 years, however in accordance with INDG 479 the following circumstances would require repeat testing:<\/p>\r\n\r\n

    • Annual repeat testing as part of a proactive approach to fit testing<\/li>\r\n\t
