Rules for the implementation of the kits in the establishments.

Depending on the distribution of workers in a company, it is possible to select several types of kits to protect more than 26 to 50 workers. The installation of several kits of this model may be suitable for multiples of 26 to 50 employees. For example, it is possible to install two kits for an area with 100 workers, thus allowing faster access. The principle of access in less than 30 seconds of walking time remains to be considered. The same applies to multi-storey buildings where the number of kits must protect workers on one floor.

Note on the conformity of this kit:

In Quebec, the minimum content of a first aid kit has recently been modified. The new contents are now based on the Canadian regulation CAN/CSA Z1220-17. You will be able to consult on the CNESST website the information concerning the material required for the basic kit as well as the information concerning the risks associated with your sector of activity.
