Welcome to the latest BSIF e:newsletter, brought to you in association with Health and Safety Matters.
In this issue we bring you news of two new initiatives to be brought to you by the BSIF in association with the HSE. Fit2Fit is a scheme being developed to increase awareness of the need for fit-testing and Clean Air? - Take Care! is a campaign to improve awareness of the need for adequate respiratory protection to be launched in early 2009.
We also bring you full details of the winners of the 2008 BSIF awards and a reminder to get in quickly to book your place for this October's BSIF networking day.
As always, for further information on any of the products listed below, please use the free reader enquiry service and provide a brief description of your requirements.
