This clip is part of an early respirator training film. Today in the US, employer must provide training to employees who are required to use respirators. The training must be comprehensive, understandable, and be done, at least, annually, and more often if necessary. This training should include: 1) why the respirator is necessary and how improper fit, use, or maintenance can compromise its protective effect; 2) the limitations and capabilities of the respirator; 3) how to inspect, put on and remove, use and check the seals (for tight-fitting types); 4) how to maintain and store the respirator; 5) how to recognize medical signs and symptoms that may limit or prevent effective use of a respirator; and, 6) the general requirements of OSHA's respirator standard, 29 CFR 1910.134. For examples of good respirator training, go to the Online Curricula Catalog of the National Institute for Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHSWorker Education and Training Program (WETP) at http://tools.niehs.nih.gov/wetp/index... .Since 1987, the NIEHS WETP has supported the development of curricula and the initiation of training programs throughout the country to help meet Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements under 29 CFR 1910.120, Hazardous Waste Operations & Emergency Response (HAZWOPER). This is clipped from the 1940s film, The Air We Breathe, a ppromotional documentary from the Mine Safety Appliances Company (MSA) on the importance of the air respirator to industrial health and safety. At the end, the film explains that industry and government cooperation has removed the "menace in the air" and urges workers in various industries to use the respirator. This film is available from the National Archives (NARA).
