Morning All,
I know there is always a lot of debate of ‘Fit Testing’ for N95 Masks.
I’m interested to hear if any organisations have undertaken this large piece of work for their workplace?
Kind regards, Leisa

Hi Lisa
Many of our sites in WA have attempted to undertake this. The concerns are that the masks provided for the test are not available due to the supply chain issues. Even in one instance we were provided with a mask that was not approved by the TGA, which we had to actually point out to the person conducting the test.

Hi Leisa
No we haven’t gone as far as the fit testing, just train staff on fit checking.
Hope you are well.
