Workrite Safety

With the Global Pandemic, still very real and present, there has been some confusion with respirator choice and usage by many, especially those that have never been required to use a respirator before. Questions as to which respirators are approved, do I need a medical clearance exam and how is fit testing performed are just an example of some of the questions we get. Whether you are one of our clients or simply need a little help we encourage you to call us (WorkRite Safet...y) with any questions you may have. We have helped with the selection of respirators (which ones are approved and safe to use), reuse and extended use of N95's during the pandemic, as well as helping you to understand OSHA requirements associated with their use.

Quick read up on effective measures to cleaning your N95 respirator. Also remember to.... 1.) Keep away from extreme temperature changes (ie don't store in the car overnight) 2.) Store in an air-tight storage bag (ie freezer bag)... 3.) Avoid moisture when you can (Do not keep it in your work locker near the showers, it will challenge the integrity of the mask and COVID-19 is drawn to moisture) #covid19 #inthistogether # #makethedifference #peoplemakethedifference #n95 #respirator
