Why is a Respiratory Protection Programme necessary?

It is recognised that as a PCBU (Person Conducting a Business or Undertaking) we must ensure the health and safety of workers. Respiratory protection equipment (RPE) is lowest action to implement on the minimisation hierarchy and requires careful administration and training to remain effective. A respiratory protective programme should follow the requirement set out in AS/NZS 1715.
