Videos from OSHA Show Proper Use of Respirators

OSHA has posted a series of 17 short videos in both English and Spanish to help workers learn about the proper use of respirators on the job. With topics ranging from OSHA’s Respiratory Standard to detecting counterfeit respirators, the videos provide valuable information to workers in general industry and construction. In addition, the Agency’s page on Respiratory Protection provides more training materials, information about occupational respiratory hazards in different industries and details of their Respiratory Protection Standard (29 CFR 1910.134 and 29 CFR 1926.103).
