Respiratory Protection Program


Description

A written respiratory protection program is a core component of ensuring safety in your workplace. Not only is it required by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), it’s also valuable to employers because:
 

    OSHA compliance officers use it to confirm that all parts of your program are up to par.    Supervisors and workers can refer to the policies and procedures contained in it, so they know their responsibilities.    It’s a single resource for keeping records of past training and testing so you know what needs updating and when.    Insurance adjusters may view it when investigating claims.
