Hi Lori, the masks/respirators should comply with the AS/NZ 1716? The
manufacturing company should provide that assurance if Australian.
Work Safe do provide various guidelines regarding mask selection. Masks
(N95 or P2s) from other countries will have their own compliance standards,
this link to NIOSH may be useful:

I note they tested non NIOSH approved masks and list the companies? The
filtration efficacy rates are varied, some are really poor.
