Face Fit Testing should be carried out on all respiratory protective equipment that is required to be worn in harmful environments. With quantitative face fit testing, specialised equipment is used to ensure that the particular face mask worn by a particular individual has a tight seal and is correctly fitted to the wearer. The test is carried out under a number of controlled exercises to demonstrate the level of performance of the mask giving a more stringent pass or fail.
