Mobile, On-Site Respiratory Compliance Support

On-Site Respirator Fit Testing (QLFT & QNFT)

Fit test employees at your facility with minimal disruption. We provide qualitative and quantitative fit testing, optional medical clearance, and clean documentation that supports OSHA respiratory protection requirements.

  • OSHA-aligned documentation
  • Efficient on-site flow
  • Built for teams & shift work
  • Northern CA + Atlanta, GA

Why Respirator Fit Testing Matters

A respirator is only protective when it fits correctly. Fit testing verifies the seal, helps validate your respiratory protection program, and supports safer outcomes for employees exposed to airborne hazards.

Verify the Seal

Tight-fitting respirators must seal against the face. Fit testing helps confirm the selected make, model, and size can maintain a reliable seal during use.

Protect Employees from Airborne Hazards

Dust, fumes, and aerosols can pose serious health risks. Fit testing supports safer respiratory protection by validating that the chosen respirator can perform as intended for the wearer.

Safety documentation related to respirator fit testing and compliance

Support OSHA Compliance

Fit testing is part of a compliant respiratory protection program for tight-fitting respirators. Clear records reduce audit friction and help standardize your annual cycle.

Mobile On-Site Testing That Fits Your Operation

Sending employees off-site burns time and creates scheduling headaches. QuickCare brings fit testing to your workplace, builds an efficient flow for your team, and delivers the documentation you need at the end of the day.

  • Coordinate around shifts, production windows, and peak hours
  • Support for both QLFT and QNFT depending on respirator type and program needs
  • Digital records designed for easy storage and retrieval
  • Optional add-ons: medical clearance and respirator training

Respiratory Protection Program Support

Fit testing is one part of a complete respiratory protection program. QuickCare helps you execute the fit testing portion efficiently, and we provide documentation that supports ongoing compliance management.

Initial + Annual Fit Testing

Fit testing is required before first use and at least annually for tight-fitting respirators, and whenever changes occur that could impact fit (equipment change or employee physical change).

Records You Can Actually Use

Fit test records include test type, date, respirator make/model/style/size, and results—organized for quick retrieval during audits, onboarding, and annual refresh cycles.

Medical Clearance Options

If your program requires it, we can bundle medical clearance with fit testing to reduce coordination overhead and keep your schedule moving.

Qualitative and Quantitative Fit Testing

Choose the method that matches your respirator type and program requirements. We’ll help you plan the right approach for your workforce.

Qualitative Fit Testing (QLFT)

QLFT is a pass/fail method that relies on the wearer’s ability to detect a test agent, indicating leakage at the face seal. Often used for filtering facepieces (like many N95 programs) and certain half-mask applications where allowed.

  • Pass/fail outcome based on wearer response
  • Efficient option for teams and annual refresh cycles
  • Clear records: respirator make/model/size + result

Quantitative Fit Testing (QNFT)

QNFT uses an instrument to measure leakage and generate a numerical fit factor. It’s commonly used for full-face respirators and higher-control programs where objective measurement is required.

  • Numerical fit factor for objective evaluation
  • Supports tight-fitting half-mask and full-face programs
  • Useful for standardization across varied face shapes

A Simple, On-Site Workflow

We build a schedule that keeps production moving—then we arrive ready to run an efficient, documented fit testing day.

  1. 1

    Plan + Schedule

    Share headcount, respirator types, and preferred windows. We’ll propose an on-site plan that fits your shift structure.

  2. 2

    Pre-Test Readiness

    We confirm requirements (QLFT vs QNFT, clean-shaven policy, medical clearance needs) and align on the on-site setup.

  3. 3

    On-Site Fit Testing

    Our team runs the fit testing flow with OSHA-aligned protocols and keeps the day moving with organized time slots.

  4. 4

    Documentation Delivery

    You receive fit test records and any included training or clearance documentation—ready for storage and audit support.

What’s Included + How to Prepare

Make fit testing day predictable. Here’s what you get from QuickCare and what your team should do ahead of time.

What QuickCare Provides

  • Mobile on-site testing setup (QLFT or QNFT)
  • Fit test administration using a standardized workflow
  • Records including respirator make/model/style/size and results
  • Optional add-ons: medical clearance and respirator training
  • Practical guidance on scheduling and throughput for teams

Need broader program support? Pair fit testing with on-site first aid, CPR/AED training, or your annual training calendar through ProTrain.

Employee + Site Preparation Checklist

  • Employees are clean-shaven where the respirator seals to the face
  • Confirm respirator models/sizes to be tested (or we can assist)
  • Provide a quiet indoor space with table and chairs
  • Coordinate time slots by department/shift to reduce idle time
  • If required, complete medical questionnaires prior to fit testing

For qualitative testing, we recommend avoiding eating/drinking (except water) immediately beforehand to reduce reschedules. We’ll confirm the exact prep guidance during scheduling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers for safety managers, HR, and operations teams planning respirator fit testing.

How often is respirator fit testing required?

Fit testing is required for tight-fitting respirators:

  • Before initial use
  • At least annually
  • When respirator make/model/style/size changes
  • When an employee’s physical condition changes in a way that could affect fit
What’s the difference between qualitative and quantitative fit testing?

Qualitative (QLFT) is pass/fail and depends on the wearer detecting a test agent. Quantitative (QNFT) uses an instrument to measure leakage and provides a numerical fit factor. We’ll help you align method selection with respirator type and program requirements.

What types of respirators can you fit test?

We support fit testing for tight-fitting respirators, including:

  • N95/N99/N100 filtering facepiece respirators
  • Half-mask elastomeric respirators
  • Full-face elastomeric respirators
  • Tight-fitting PAPR facepieces
  • SCBA-style masks (program/site requirements apply)
Do employees need to be clean-shaven?

Yes. For tight-fitting respirators, employees must be clean-shaven anywhere the respirator seals against the face. Facial hair at the seal can prevent an adequate fit and may require rescheduling.

What documentation do you provide?

Fit test records typically include:

  • Employee name and test date
  • Test type (QLFT or QNFT)
  • Respirator make, model, style, and size
  • Results (pass/fail or fit factor)

If included in your package, we also provide medical clearance documentation and training completion records.

Do you provide respirator training?

Yes. Training is included in the Complete Package or available as a standalone service ($87.00 per session). Training covers why the respirator is needed, limitations, donning/doffing, seal checks, maintenance, storage, and program basics.
