Event workflow

Employees need clear instructions and the correct respirator available for testing.

  • Scheduling windows

Program continuity

Fit testing may need to be repeated when respirator models or employee fit conditions change.

  • Annual planning
  • Retesting workflow
  • Record retention support

A Practical Workflow for Employers

Confirm requirements

Review covered roles, test type, timing, geography, forms, and reporting expectations before employees are routed.

Set the access path

Choose clinic, mobile, collection-site, lab, or account-managed workflows based on the service and workforce.

Coordinate employee completion

Give employees and managers clear instructions, then track visits, specimens, paperwork, and exceptions.

Return program status

Route completion, pending items, and follow-up needs back to the agreed employer contact.
