What is Face Fit Testing?
It is a legal requirement under Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations (Regulation 7), Control of Lead at Work Regulations (Regulations 6) and Control of Asbestos Regulations (Regulation 10) for employers to provide suitable and sufficient respiratory protective equipment (RPE) where other control measures cannot be achieved.
The relevant Approved Codes of Practice advise that the selection and use of tight fitting masks (as RPE) should include a face fit test.
A number of large contractors and house builders now require evidence of face fit testing from all of their sub-contractors.
At Safescope our qualified and experienced team provides a face fit testing service in a prompt and cost effective manner for your operatives either at your premises or our office in Ipswich, as convenient.
