FFT questions
How many people can you test in a day?
It depends on access and shift patterns. Tell us numbers and location and we will plan it.
Why is face fit testing required?
Tight-fitting RPE only protects the wearer if it seals. The Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations require a fit test for each wearer and mask.
How often should fit testing be repeated?
At least every two years, and sooner after significant weight change, dental work or a change of mask model.
Can you test our whole crew on site?
Yes. Testing takes around 20 to 30 minutes per person and we can work through a crew in a single visit.
