Risk Assessment, Surveillance and 

Compliance and Enforcement targeting 

General Industry, Healthcare, Public 

Safety, and Mining stakeholders. 

Moderated breakout sessions will 

discuss preferred Conformity

detailed in the background below); 

existing U.S. CA infrastructure 

capabilities; and gaps in legislation, 

standards, and infrastructure that need 

to be filled to define the framework. 

These breakout discussions will not be

Background: In response to 

recommendations made by the National 

Academies of Science during a 

programmatic review, the NIOSH 

Personal Protective Technology 

Conformity Assessment Working Group 

was established in 2011. The goal of this 

group is to prepare a national 

framework establishing criteria, 

including comprehensive and consistent 

processes, to address conformity 

assessment of non-respiratory personal 

protective equipment. Conformity 

assessment is defined as the 

‘‘demonstration that specified 

requirements relating to a product, 

process, system, person or body are 

fulfilled.’’ Conformity assessment 

processes for PPT products are focused 

on product effectiveness and include 

the following primary components: 

Certification (ISO/IEC 17065), 

Inspection (ISO/IEC 17020), Testing 

(ISO/IEC 17025), Accreditation (ISO/IEC 

17011), Surveillance (ISO/IEC 17011, 

ISO/IEC 17065), Supplier’s Declaration 

of Conformity (ISO/IEC 17050), 

Registration (ISO/IEC 17021) and 

Quality Management Systems (ISO/ 

9001). 

The Conformity Assessment Project 

Report and preliminary framework 

documents will be available at 

www.regulations.gov.
