Respiratory Protection. When cutting or grinding cementitious materials or cleaning in enclosed environments, respirators equal to NIOSH N-95 should be worn for protection. All other areas or operations will be evaluated by project supervision. Prime will be responsible for their own employees and shall provide all Contractor’s with their program elements and identifications of competent persons. Where conditions warrant, air sampling may be required to ensure the correct selection of respiratory protection.
Respiratory Protection. 12.8.1. Contractor shall provide and require the use of appropriate respiratory protective equipment in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.134 and acceptable to the District, whenever a respiratory hazard exists.
12.8.2. A competent person knowledgeable of inhalation hazards and respiratory protective equipment shall be designated by the Contractor to conduct a step-by-step evaluation to insure that only respiratory protection appropriate for the conditions of exposure is selected and utilized.
12.8.3. Where respiratory protection is required or expected to be required, the Contractor shall have a written Respiratory Protection Program, which describes the selection, use, care and sanitation of respiratory equipment. This procedure shall include the name of the procedure administrator for the site, cartridge change out data, method to be used for sanitizing respirators, medical qualifications of those required to wear respirators, methods for fit testing and employee training.
12.8.4. Contractor supervisors shall notify the District’s Site Safety Representative or Construction Manager before starting any Work that requires employees wear respiratory protection.
Respiratory Protection. 9/10/1 The Employer reserves the right to require the wearing of respiratory equipment by employees. In such cases, the Employer shall provide a suitable personal safety device. The Employer shall provide replacement filter cartridges.
Respiratory Protection. Contractors whose work activities warrants that employees wear respiratory protection, shall establish and implement a respiratory protection program. The program shall meet the requirements set forth in 29 CFR 1926.134.
Respiratory Protection. In the event that the Employer requires the use of respiratory equipment by employees, the Employer shall provide suitable equipment.
Respiratory Protection. 19.1 TANK CONTRACTOR shall provide and require the use of appropriate respiratory protective equipment, manufactured in accordance with NIOSH/ MSHA standards, whenever a respiratory system hazard exists.
Respiratory Protection. Depending on the type of work being performed and conditions created by such work, airborne concentrations of some materials may exceed established Permissible Exposure Levels. Workers will therefore, be provided appropriate respiratory protection by the contractor, as required.
Respiratory Protection. If Contractor plans to use respirators as a part of its Work operations, then Contractor is required to forward to JWA Project Manager a copy of Contractor’s written Respiratory Protection Program. Refer to 8 CCR, Subchapter 7 GISO, Group 16, Article 107, Section 5144.
Respiratory Protection. If it is not possible to reduce airborne exposure levels to below the OSHA PEL with ventilation, use the table below to assist you in selecting respirators that will reduce personal exposures to below the OSHA PEL. This table is part of the NIOSH Respirator Selection Logic, 2004, Chapter III, Table 1, “Particulate Respirators”. The full document can be found at xxx.xxx.xxx/xxxxx/xxxxx/xxxxxx/xxxxxxxxxxx; the user of this MSDS is directed to that site for information concerning respirator selection and use. The assigned protection factor (APF) is the minimum anticipated level of protection provided by each type of respirator worn in accordance with an adequate respiratory protection program. For example, an APF of 10 means that the respirator should reduce the airborne concentration of a particulate by a factor of 10, so that if the workplace concentration of a particulate was 150 ug/m3, then a respirator with an APF of 10 should reduce the concentration of particulate to 15 ug/m3. factor 1 (Use only NIOSH-certified respirators) 10 Any air-purifying elastomeric half-mask respirator equipped with appropriate type of particulate filter. 2 Appropriate filtering facepiece respirator. 2,3 Any air-purifying full facepiece respirator equipped with appropriate type of particulate filter. 2 Any negative pressure (demand) supplied-air respirator equipped with a half-mask. 25 Any powered air-purifying respirator equipped with a hood or helmet and a high efficiency (HEPA) filter. Any continuous flow supplied-air respirator equipped with a hood or helmet. 50 Any air-purifying full facepiece respirator equipped with X-000, X-000, xx X-000 filter(s). Any powered air-purifying respirator equipped with a tight-fitting facepiece (half or full facepiece) and a high-efficiency filter. Any negative pressure (demand) supplied-air respirator equipped with a full facepiece. Any continuous flow supplied-air respirator equipped with a tight-fitting facepiece (half or full facepiece). Any negative pressure (demand) self-contained respirator equipped with a full facepiece.
Respiratory Protection. It is agreed that the City will take the appropriate steps necessary to comply with applicable federal, state, and local laws, including but not limited to Ohio’s Public Employment Risk Reduction Program (O.R.C. Chapter 4167), dealing with respiratory protection. To that end, the City will provide respirators that are applicable and suitable for the purposes intended consistent with applicable provisions of law. Employees shall use the respiratory protection provided in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, training provided, and all applicable provisions of law. Further, employees will be fit-tested for respirators in order to ensure that a proper facial seal exists as prescribed and mandated by current law. The City will require employees to correct conditions which prevent, impair, or impede a proper facial seal, including but not limited to, a growth of xxxxx, sideburns, any object worn that projects under the face piece, or temple pieces on glasses. The refusal or failure of any employee, after being advised by management, to take corrective action to remedy those conditions which prevent, impair or impede the proper fit of a respirator may subject such employee to disciplinary action, up to and including termination. Employees who are assigned a respirator must be medically cleared to determine their fitness to wear the respirator, which may require a physical examination. No employee will be assigned a task requiring the use of a respirator unless found physically able to perform the work while wearing the respirator. Physical examinations to determine medical fitness to wear a respirator shall be conducted by a licensed health care professional. Certain provisions of applicable occupational health and safety laws require site and/or job specific policies, procedures and protocols. It is further agreed that the City will promulgate and employees will comply with such site and/or job specific policies, procedures and protocols. Failure of an employee to comply with such policies, procedures and protocols may result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination.
