Can employees use a cloth or a bandana as a respirator to protect against the hazards of wildfire smoke?

No. Surgical masks or items worn over the nose and mouth such as scarves, T-shirts, and bandannas will not provide protection against wildfire smoke. An N95 filtering facepiece respirator is the minimum level of protection for wildfire smoke.
