Anyone wearing ANY respiratory protection completes a questionnaire.  Periodicity is based on health condition, frequency of use or negative pressure availability in the department and ranges from yearly to every 5 years for those in the respiratory program.  We have about 2200 in our program.

We do new hires when they come for  Occupational Health visit.  A vendor comes in to do the annuals once per year in July.  Individuals who were not previously fitted and have have a job transfer during the year

To a position that requires the fit testing, schedule an appointment with Occupational Health to complete that requirement.

Amy,

We are very limited on the number of people that do fit testing, so we moved the fit testing to due by date of hire. This prevented the clumping of 300+ people all trying to get fit tested in the same month that everyone’s performance review was due. All new hires are tested at the time of the post offer pre-employment exam.

Happy Friday,

We are moving to a new performance management system. Currently employees are evaluated in the month of their hire date. All of their annual requirements (fit testing, competencies, etc.) are to be completed prior to their review and if they are not completed the employee does not receive any increases they may be entitled to until it is completed. This has worked fairly well in ensuring people keep up on their requirements. The new system will have everyone being reviewed in the same time frame. We are looking at whether it would make sense to do the same with our fit testing. Designate a month and crank out all the fit tests and be done. Then you address new hires as they start. There are pros and cons to either method.

 

What are you all doing? What has worked well? Would you change? Have you recently switched to one system or the other? If so, why? Really any pearls relative to this experience would be most appreciated.
