Employees assigned to tasks that require the use of a respirator must be physically able to perform the work while using the respirator.Accordingly, Canam Bridges has the responsibility of ensuring that employees are medically fit to tolerate the physical and psychological stress imposed by respirator use, as well as the physical stress originating from the job and workplace conditions.
