An important piece of PPE for safety in the workplace is the dust mask. This video shows how it can be used for chemical safety and dust prevention as well as shows the best practices for applying it.
Video Transcript:
Speaker 1:
All right, so what other equipment do you want to talk about?
Speaker 2:
Actually I’d like to talk about dust masks.
Speaker 1:
Okay.
Speaker 2:
Can you tell me a little bit about them?
Speaker 1:
I absolutely would love to. So this is the only type of dust masks that we really should be wearing at The Budd Group. If we’re in a situation where there’s a harmful chemical in the air or maybe a harmful dust in the air that requires us to wear a respirator, the manager would actually know that and we have a whole process that’s separate from this.
Speaker 1:
So really the point of wearing these is if something’s just agitating you and you feel more comfortable wearing one and so there’s not a lot to it. All you need to do is, I like to pre-pinch the nose a little bit and then just slip it on, pull it over and then go ahead and pinch that nose to make sure that you’re getting a nice seal and that’s all there is to it.
Speaker 1:
Again, a dust mask like this has really made for big particles and dust and is not going to do a lot to keep out small particles. So this is really just to help with agitation or maybe if you were doing some high dusting and you had some big stuff fall on, you just don’t want to get anything in your mouth, that’s really when we should be wearing stuff like this.
Speaker 2:
Excellent.
Speaker 1:
All right. What’s next?
Speaker 2:
Pro safety tip number four.
Create new speaker:
If you’re concerned of any dust or large particles in the air, dust masks are provided for anyone who wishes to wear it.
Create new speaker:
If there’s a harmful chemical or dust in the air that requires a more serious masks, such as a respirator, contact your manager. Dust masks won’t protect you from small or harmful particles.
Create new speaker:
After you’ve placed the dust mask on your face, be sure to pinch the metal nose strip to complete the seal of the mask.

I have worked with The Budd Group since 2011, and I have been very pleased and impressed with their staff, account managers, and regional support they provide. They have been very prompt to respond if there is an issue with the janitorial services. They provide an exceptional service and understand the importance of greeting our passengers and guests to allow them to have a wonderful experience when traveling. I view their service as a partnership and count on them daily to deliver exceptional quality to our tenants, passengers, staff, and business partners.
The Budd Group provides exceptional custodial services for our campus. We are grateful for their service to our patients, families, visitors, staff and faculty for over 40 years. The Budd Group is very responsive to our requests and needs, and we truly believe in their loyalty and commitment to our success.
I personally have had the best experience and relationship with The Budd Group. From their owner all the way to their day porters, they take great pride in representing the company name, and doing the best job they can. During these unprecedented pandemic times The Budd Group has been flexible and responsive to the changing needs our district has had in every way. With every firm that we have used there have been issues, but no firm has ever been as responsive, and as quick to fix whatever the issue may be as The Budd Group!
The Budd Group has gone above and beyond in providing custodial services to our district. Following a lengthy RFP process, we as a committee selected them to help our district achieve a new and rejuvenating approach to campus cleaning and facility care. We asked them to take on a difficult task of staffing, and preparing schools for the start of our school year with only 6 weeks of transition time. We all knew it would be difficult at best. However, with the help of their Human Resources department and successful hiring strategies, we were up and running by the time our Staff members began to enter the campuses for the school year.
The Budd Group has been providing services to Capsugel for over 6 years. The service provided has been excellent and professional. They perform duties in multiple locations including a manufacturing plant, distribution center, office area, machine shop and fitness center. They clean all of the following types of areas at those various locations: office, bathroom, cafeteria, fitness center, locker room, shipping/receiving and CGMP production areas. As it relates to CGMP experience, they also created a sanitation program for the cGMP areas, maintain and created their own operating instructions, maintain document control and follow all cGMP guidelines for hygiene and documentation.
The Budd Group has become a true partner with Presbyterian College. They have taken the time to fully understand our mission and become a true part of the Blue Hose family. The housekeeping staff often pull off miracles when given very little time to clean a space on campus between events. They work long hours and respond 24/7 to emergencies on campus. The landscaping team has transformed the grounds of the campus such that the college regularly gets positive feedback from those who visit the campus. Before outsourcing to The Budd Group, the college performed these services in house. We have seen significant improvement in both housekeeping and grounds since The Budd Group took over.
With more than 4,000 dedicated employees, The Budd Group is one of the leading facility service companies in the country, delivering high-quality janitorial, maintenance, landscaping and facility support solutions to customers throughout the Southeast.
