JandA Health & Safety Solutions
conducting fit-tests at NYC Hospital
during COVID-19 pandemic
If you have needs for supporting your workplace or construction site for COVID-19 you can feel confident that JandA has the expertise necessary to meet your needs. JandA was at the epicenter of the pandemic from March to the end of June supporting a major New York city hospital system with training fit-testers and managing about 10,000 respirator fit-tests for the hospital staff. JandA's role was to ensure that the fit-tests were conducted in accordance with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations and to complete the recordkeeping forms for each fit test (see Client testimonial).
