Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about respirator clearance

Yes, OSHA regulations (29 CFR 1910.134) require that anyone using a respirator at work must receive medical clearance first. This applies to all types of respirators, including N95 masks, half-face respirators, and full-face respirators. The requirement exists because respirators can put additional strain on your heart and lungs, and a medical professional needs to verify that it's safe for you to use one.

Respirator clearances are typically valid for one year from the date of issue. However, you may need a new clearance sooner if your health status changes significantly, if you experience breathing difficulties while using a respirator, or if your employer has specific policies requiring more frequent evaluations. Your digital certificate will clearly show the issue date and expiration date.

No, the medical evaluation (what ProTrain provides) and the fit test are two different requirements. The medical evaluation determines if you're medically able to wear a respirator. A fit test verifies that your specific respirator forms a proper seal on your face. Both are required by OSHA, but they are separate processes. You must receive medical clearance before completing a fit test. ProTrain provides the medical clearance portion; you'll need to arrange for a fit test separately, typically through your employer or a safety service provider.

Most clearances are issued within 15 minutes after completing your questionnaire. Complex cases that require additional review may take longer. You'll receive a notification as soon as your clearance certificate is ready. The system is available 24/7, so you can complete your questionnaire at any time convenient for you, even on weekends or after hours.

Yes, absolutely. ProTrain is HIPAA compliant, meaning we follow strict protocols to protect your personal health information. Your questionnaire responses are only shared with the licensed healthcare professional reviewing your clearance. Your employer or job site will only receive your clearance status (cleared, not cleared, or cleared with restrictions), not your specific health information or questionnaire responses.

Your digital certificate can be accessed in several ways:
  • Download a PDF copy to your device
  • Email the certificate directly to your employer or supervisor
  • Add it to your digital wallet (Apple Wallet or Google Pay)
  • Display the certificate on your phone screen when reporting to a job site
Each certificate has a unique verification code that can be used to confirm its authenticity.
