This is comment on Proposed Rule

Abbreviated Bitrex[supreg]Qualitative Fit-Testing Protocol

View Comment

Why a subjective test like qualitative fit-testing is still allowed in this day and age begs the question of how seriously OSHA takes respirator fit. Economical and easy-to-administer quantitative fit testing is readily available. This proposed rule change will reduce and already poor and quick test to an even quicker and poorer fit test. Shame on you for considering this rule change! Robert Mandel
