Your due diligence still applies.These tools give general guidance only. The employer is responsible for its own first aid assessment and for meeting the BC OHS Regulation and WSBC’s requirements for the workplace. Check WSBC’s current pages and the Regulation, and ask WSBC or a qualified person when you’re unsure. Nothing here replaces those duties, or the first aid training your attendants need.

This tool explains the rules. It is not the rules.It’s built from WSBC’s first aid pages, the Occupational Health and Safety Regulation (Part 3 and Schedule 3-A) and WSBC’s BC OHS Guidelines. Where we say Law, the Regulation requires it. Where we say Guidance, it’s WSBC’s interpretation or advice. If anything here differs from WSBC, WSBC is right. Alpha Training Solutions is an approved first aid training provider; this toolkit is our own work and is not made or endorsed by WSBC.
