Respiratory Protection

Focus on employee protection: The primary goal is to safeguard employees from respiratory hazards through the proper use of respirators.

Prioritize hazard prevention: Emphasize the use of engineering controls (like ventilation) and administrative controls (like safe work procedures) to minimize exposure to contaminants before resorting to respirators.

Compliance with regulations: UC Davis Health implements a comprehensive respiratory protection program for workers who are exposed to hazardous airborne containments following Cal/OSHA's respiratory protection standard (T8 CCR 5144).
