Employers
who allow their employees to wear respirators on a voluntary basis when not required by
OSHA or the employer must implement limited provisions of a respiratory protection
program. When a filtering facepiece respirator is all that is used, the employee must be
provided a copy of Appendix D. For all other voluntary users, an additional written
respirator program that covers medical fitness and proper maintenance procedures must be
implemented.
