Voluntary Respirator Use
Some employees may be irritated by the presence of non-hazards air contaminants. When use of a respirator will help alleviate irritation and when the respirator itself is judged to pose no additional risk to the wearer, employees will be allowed to voluntarily use respirators for comfort reasons.
