be required to combat exposure including
residual exposure where other control
measures are in use, and suitable personal
protective equipment / respiratory
protective equipment (RPE) to be worn.

the respirator and area of the face seal
should be clean-shaven to ensure effective
performance of the RPE and compliance
with HSE requirements. Please Shave its
your safety risk not mine!
