    Brief

    The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) is conducting market engagement to understand current fit-testing capacity across the UK and identify how it can be rapidly expanded during a pandemic. This initiative supports the government's Pandemic Preparedness Strategy and responds to recommendations from the COVID-19 Inquiry. DHSC is developing a fit-testing surge plan and practical delivery models to ensure health and adult social care staff can be quickly fitted with FFP3 respirators if needed during a pandemic emergency. The survey seeks input from fit testers, fit-testing organisations, trainers, and training providers. Respondents should have information about their current capacity, staffing, equipment, and ability to scale operations. Participation involves completing a Microsoft Forms survey (expected completion time: less than 20 minutes). The deadline for submission is Tuesday 23rd June 2026 at 11:59pm. Your response will directly inform pandemic preparedness planning and help prevent delays in enabling frontline workers to safely use protective equipment during health emergencies.
