In industries where airborne contaminants are present, such as dust, fumes, vapors, or biological agents, proper respiratory protection is crucial to prevent long-term health problems like lung disease, asthma, or even cancer. OSHA mandates that employers provide workers with effective respiratory protection, but the right training ensures that employees are able to correctly use, maintain, and replace respirators as necessary.
When correctly applied, respiratory protection prevents workers from inhaling harmful substances, safeguarding their health and boosting productivity by reducing absenteeism due to respiratory issues. By offering this training, Safety Is A Mindset ensures that both employers and employees comply with safety standards, creating a safer, healthier work environment.
