Workplace First Aid (Paperback)

Across Canada, workplace first aid requirements are governed by provincial and territorial occupational health and safety legislation. Employers are required to provide appropriate first aid equipment, trained personnel, and emergency procedures based on workplace hazards and risks.


The purpose of a Workplace First Aid Program is to:
• Preserve life during emergencies
• Prevent injuries or illnesses from worsening
• Promote recovery until medical help arrives
• Establish clear emergency response procedures
• Support compliance with workplace safety legislation
• Promote a safe and prepared workplace culture

This manual may be used as a guide to assist workplaces in developing, implementing, evaluating, and improving their Workplace First Aid Program to support safer workplaces and regulatory compliance.
