We’re in retail, so a lot of customer facing roles.
You don't need N95 for day to day customer facing roles basic grade surgical masks will be more than enough or even cloth ones. You can even buy a bulk set of branded ones.
So you also intend to get someone who is trained* to come and train you, your staff in how to use them and carry out individual FIT tests?
Along with other aspects of infection control inc suitable clinical waste provision.
N95 or FFP3 are no use at all unless used and fitted correctly. You also will need to carry out individual risk assessments and identify staff that will need removing from customer facing roles. With Covid we now know medical conditions are not the only risk factor.
You need to have options for staff who fails a FIT test you can't give them something different and the rest a N95 can you?
You're going to need a fair few as they need changing every 4 hours or sooner if they get wet or damp in mean time.
N95 or FFP3 belong in clinical or care roles outside that type of environment they are not really a solution.
Outside clinical environments infection control get's complex and messy once you move past the basics.
Save the stocks we have for ones who really need them. PPE is still not reaching them.
•by trained I mean someone who's not been a crash course to cash in on the current situation.
