A single exposure to an airborne chemical can cause health effects that may last for the rest of your life. If your workplace contains dangerous chemicals or hazardous atmospheres, you need to know when and how to wear a respirator. This training will present the basic requirements of respiratory protection and will focus on the types and limitations of respirators. Learners include all employees.
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134;OSHA 29 CFR 1926.103
Several workers are required to wear respirators in distinct workplaces in the United States. Respirators safeguard workers against insufficient oxygen environments, fogs, dusts, mists, and smokes. These hazards may cause cancer, leading to lung impairment, diseases, and even death. If you work in a similar environment with hazardous substances or poor air quality, then you must know when and how to use a respirator. Our respirator training complies with the OSHA respiratory protection standard, which can help avoid illnesses and deaths.
Respirators protect the user in two ways. First, it removes the contaminants from the air. Respirators of this type include particulate respirators that filter out airborne particles and air-purifying respirators with canisters. These filter out chemicals and gases. The other kind of respirator supplies clean, respirable air from another source. Respirators of this category include airline respirators that use compressed air from a remote source along with self-contained breathing apparatus, which include their own air supply. In this training, learn to use the right respirator for your job and ensure a healthy workplace.
