Face Fitting Guidance

Research indicates that a significant amount of the RPE in use does not offer the user the expected level of protection because it does not fit. In April 2019 the HSE published their latest guidelines on face fitting HSE INDG 479. Fit2Fit published 3 method specific companions to support the HSE guidance. Download here.

Statement from the HSE
“In preparing the Fit2Fit RPE fit testers accreditation scheme, BSIF and other industry stakeholders have worked closely with the experts in Health and Safety Executive (HSE). Following this scheme is not compulsory and employers are free to take other action to comply with the law. But if you follow this scheme, you will be doing enough to demonstrate good practice.”
