Respiratory Fit Testing
Respiratory fit testing, mandated by Australian & New Zealand Standard AS/NZS1715, is essential before using a respirator on the job and should be conducted annually. Fit tests are also necessary:
- When switching to a different size, style, model, or make of respirator.
- After any facial changes like significant weight fluctuations or dental work.

A proper fit addresses three key issues:
Seal - Effective protection hinges on a secure seal between the respirator and your skin. Air will take the path of least resistance, so if the seal isn’t there, the air will go around rather than through the respirator – and, therefore, lessen the protection.
Compatibility - Safety glasses, hearing protection, face shields, hard hats and coveralls can all vie with a respirator for real estate on a person’s face, head or body. For instance, if a half-face respirator doesn’t fit well (especially if it’s too large), it can overlap with glasses. The more that happens, the more fogging can potentially occur on glasses, and the more likely it is that they’ll interfere with the respirator’s seal.
Stability - The better a respirator fits, the more stable it’s likely to be on the wearer’s face. Fit testing determines the respirator’s ability to retain its seal when the worker is in motion. That’s why test subjects are told to go through several exercises as part of testing. A respirator that shifts during movement may not be able to retain its seal.
