WorkSafeBC Backgrounder: Occupational First Aid Regulation Changes
In April 2023, WorkSafeBC’s Board of Directors approved amendments to Part 3 of the Occupational Health and Safety Regulation, relating to the provision of occupational first aid. These amendments will take effect November 1, 2024, to give employers time to obtain any required first aid training and equipment necessitated by these changes. The below WorkSafeBC backgrounder provides an overview of the changes.
This backgrounder was updated in November 2023 to provide additional details and guidance.
