We Train & Fit Test Onsite! We travel to you to save you time, money and the loss of production! Evergreen Fit Test goes onsite to any jobsite around the World Fit Testing every type of respirator including: Full-Face Half-Face
However, fit-testing is not performed in all health care settings. The small cost of performing fit-testing has to be compared to the welfare of the health care workers as well as potential cost of sick leave or legal costs.doi:10.5694/mja2.50764Adrian Regli...
Objectives: This study investigated particle-size-selective protection factors (PFs) of four models of N95 filtering facepiece respirators (FFRs) that passed and failed fit testing. Particle size ranges were representative of individual viruses and bacteria (aerodynamic diameter da = 0.04–1.3 μm)...
Until recently, respirator fit testing for first responders has focused heavily on SCBA masks for firefighters. However, this global pandemic has made clear the importance of fit testing other respirators like N95 filtering facepieces for EMTs, paramedics and firefighters....

This new fit-test method, PRST, can detect face seal leakage of an N95 respirator being worn while the wearer performs clinical activities. Thus, PRST can help ensure that the N95 respirator actually fulfils its function of protecting health-care workers from airborne pathogens....
