Capture the fit-test basics
Keep the worker name, fit-test date, respirator make, model, size, test method, pass or fail result, tester name, and the next follow-up date.
Separate records from medical details
The binder can track whether required records exist without storing unnecessary medical information. Keep sensitive medical documentation in the appropriate professional workflow.
Use reminders
Annual fit-test reminders, model-change reminders, and new-hire reminders reduce the chance that a shop discovers missing records only during an inspection.
