What to know before scheduling.
Does medical clearance happen before fit testing?
Yes. OSHA requires the medical evaluation before an employee is fit tested or required to use a respirator.
Can a supervisor review questionnaire answers?
No. OSHA's process requires the questionnaire to be administered confidentially and delivered to the reviewing healthcare professional.
Is a physical examination always required?
No. The initial process may use the OSHA questionnaire; the reviewing clinician determines whether follow-up examination or testing is needed.
