Drug & Alcohol Tests we offer
Respiratory Fit
Section 7-3 of Saskatchewan’s OH&S Regulations, 2020 make it clear that where workers may be exposed to airborne contaminants that may present a hazard to workers, the employer is responsible to ensure that the worker is provided with and uses respiratory protection. Furthermore, where a tight-fitting respirator is required, the employer must ensure that the worker is fit-tested to ensure that the respirator forms a tight seal with the workers skin. It is critical that a worker who is required to wear a respirator be properly fitted for his or her mask. The fit-testing process involves selecting the correct size and type of respirator (mask) for each worker and ensuring that he/she knows how to don, use, and care for their mask correctly.
Armour has certified testers to perform both Qualitatively and quantitively fit tests for all types of Masks. We offer fit tests for disposable masks, as well as half, full and oxygen supplied masks. Call for more information.
Audiometric Testing
After completing a general Audiometry questionnaire and having the ear canal examined, the Audiometry test will be carried out using an audiometer. Results will be discussed with the employee and if necessary, they will be referred to their GP. A summary report will be sent to the company. Audiometry can be carried out at Armour Safety or at the company in a quiet room, only if ambient noise levels are suitable.
Occupational Audiometry is a screening technique used to detect early damage to hearing resulting from exposure to noise. Identifying any damage allows for follow-up remedial action in the workplace and if necessary, a medical referral. It is not a diagnostic technique. The Saskatchewan OH&S Regulations 2020 provide a comprehensive framework for the control of noise at work. The regulations place a general duty on employers to reduce the risk of hearing damage to the lowest level reasonably practicable and contain other requirements which have been implemented when certain noise levels are reached. See Part 8 of the Sask OH&S Regulations also indicates that if there is a risk to the health of the employees exposed to noise, then the employer shall ensure that such employees are placed under suitable health surveillance, which includes testing their hearing.
Spirometry Testing
Armour Safety will be offering this service in Spring 2021. Contact the office for more details.
All testing is available for offsite bookings or at Armour Safety Facility.
