A successful respiratory protection program is about much more than purchasing respirators. It combines hazard assessment, proper equipment selection, employee training, respirator maintenance, and regular fit testing to help reduce exposure to airborne contaminants.

Workplaces change over time as new materials, equipment, and job tasks are introduced. Regular reviews help ensure employees continue using respiratory protection that matches the hazards they face each day.

An effective program also includes inspecting respirators for wear, replacing filters and cartridges according to manufacturer recommendations, and ensuring workers understand how to properly wear, store, and maintain their equipment.
