An Effective Respiratory Protection Program – The most effective method of protecting workers is to reduce the hazard by using ventilation, non-toxic chemicals, and other engineering methods. Quite often, these hazards may not be controlled through engineering methods, so personal protection may then be required. An effective respiratory protection program should:

• include a written standard operating procedure
• respirators shall be selected on the basis of hazards to which the worker is exposed
• user shall be instructed and trained
• respirators must be regularly cleaned and disinfected
• respirators must be stored in convenient, clean, and sanitary locations
• respirators must be routinely inspected during cleaning
• monitor the work area conditions and the degree of worker exposure or stress
• regular inspection and evaluation be completed to determine the continued effectiveness of the respirator protection program
• persons must be physically able to perform the work and use the equipment
• all respirators must be approved for the particular hazard and it must provide the necessary protection for that hazard
