Description: The Respiratory
Protection Standard (Sec. 1910.134;
hereafter, ‘‘Standard’’) information
collection requirements require
employers to: Develop a written
respirator program; conduct employee
medical evaluations and provide followup medical evaluations to determine the
employee’s ability to use a respirator;
provide the physician or other licensed
health care professional with
information about the employee’s
respirator and the conditions under
which the employee will use the
respirator; and administrator fit tests for
employees who will use negative- or
positive-pressure, tight-fitting facepieces. In addition, employers must
ensure that employees store emergencyuse respirators in compartments clearly
marked as containing emergency-use
respirators. For respirators maintained
for emergency use, employers must
label or tag the respirator with a
certificate stating the date of inspection,
the name of the individual who made
the inspection, the findings of the
inspection, required remedial action,
and the identity of the respirator.
The Standard also requires employers
to ensure that cylinders used to supply
breathing air to respirators have a
certificate of analysis from the supplier
stating that the breathing air meets the
requirements for Type 1—Grade D
breathing air; such certification assures
employers that the purchased breathing
air is safe. Compressors used to supply

breathing air to respirators must have a
tag containing the most recent change
date and the signature of the individual
authorized by the employer to perform
the change. Employers must maintain
this tag at the compressor. These tags
provide assurance that the compressors
are functioning properly.
