RESPIRATOR FIT TESTING QUALITATIVE/QUANTITATIVE
LEGAL REQUIREMENTS: Under the Ontario Health & Safety Act, section 25 (1) (a) states that protective devices are provided. Section 25(1) (d) says that employers must ensure that protective devices provided are used as prescribed. Section 25(2) (a) describes the duty to provide workers with instruction to protect the safety of the worker. The CSA Standard Z94.4-11 defines the respirator fit testing requirements. There are two acceptable methods for Respirator Fit Testing according to the CSA Z94. 4-11. Both a Qualitative and Quantitative method require a trained professional to conduct an in-person assessment and training on the selection, care and use of designated respirators. All respirators that rely on a mask-to-face seal need to be checked with either a Qualitative or Quantitative method to determine whether the mask provides an acceptable fit to the wearer. This includes all types of air purifying, air-supplied, positive pressure, powered air-purifying respirators, and SCBA. In Canada, each province maintains its own Occupational Health and Safety guidelines and policies. In Ontario, the Occupational Health and Safety Act suggests Respirator Fit Testing to be conducted every 2 years.

ASBESTOS TESTING AND AIR CLEARANCE
If your property was built prior to 1986, then it is likely that some of the building materials used during the construction of the building may contain asbestos. For this reason we highly recommend that if you are considering any type of renovation project, that you also consider testing materials to be disturbed or removed. If you are a contractor that performs Type 3 asbestos abatement work, our certified and experienced team can conduct your clearance inspections, clearance air sampling, as well as provide you with the required documentation.

DESIGNATED SUBSTANCE REPORT
On pre-building purchase or pre-demolition building hazardous material reports will provide you with an inventory of hazardous materials present within the property in question. Our reports will also provide managers, as well as those planning building renovations or demolition activities with the means to identify the areas requiring proper abatement.
