Respiratory Protection for Respirator Wearers
Lección 1

For workers who are required to wear a respirator: what must happen before you wear one, how to check the seal every time, when to leave the area, and how to inspect, clean and store your respirator.

What this certificate covers

This certificate records completion of awareness training based on OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134. It is not an OSHA card or license, it does not replace the medical evaluation and fit test required before you use a respirator, and it does not by itself meet the training requirements of 29 CFR 1910.134(k). Your employer must still provide effective training before requiring you to use a respirator, ensure you can demonstrate knowledge of each item listed in 1910.134(k)(1), and retrain you annually and in the situations listed in 1910.134(k)(5).

What you will learn

  • Know what must happen before you wear one: medical evaluation, fit test and training
  • Put it on and check the seal every time, and recognize what breaks the seal
  • Recognize the limits of your respirator and when you must leave the area
  • Inspect, clean and store your respirator, and take a damaged one out of service

What you get

  • About 20 minutes, on your phone or computer, read out loud as you go
  • Real photos, not cartoons
  • A hands-on drill: you make the calls, step by step, and see what happens
  • 4 quick checks along the way, then a final quiz
  • A certificate with a QR code your employer can check online
  • A wallet card you can print and carry
  • A printable study guide (PDF)
