Our trained first aid compliance inspectors help organizations meet Ontario health and safety regulations, CSA standards, and WSIB requirements.
Why First Aid & AED Compliance Matters
Under Ontario’s workplace health and safety legislation (Ontario Regulation 1101), employers are required to maintain properly stocked first aid kits, functioning AEDs (Automated External Defibrillators), and accessible first aid rooms. Compliance is not only a legal requirement—it is a critical part of protecting your employees, visitors, and clients.
At Commissionaires, we go beyond traditional security services. Through our comprehensive First Aid & AED compliance programs, we help organizations maintain readiness and demonstrate due diligence by ensuring that all first aid and life-saving equipment is available, functional, and up to current legislative and/or manufacturer standards.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should first aid kits and AEDs be inspected?
Inspection frequency varies depending on facility type, usage, and risk level. Commissionaires provides scheduled inspections tailored to regulatory requirements and operational needs to ensure full compliance and readiness. At a minimum, workplace first aid kits should be inspected at least quarterly, and AEDs should undergo monthly visual inspections to confirm functionality and check battery and pad expiry dates.
What regulations govern first aid and AED compliance in Ontario?
In Ontario, workplace first aid requirements are governed by Ontario Regulation 1101 under the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act. This regulation specifies the required contents for first aid kits, the need for trained attendants, and standards for first aid rooms. AEDs must be maintained in accordance with manufacturer specifications and public access defibrillation guidelines.
What is included in a typical compliance inspection?
Each inspection includes a comprehensive review of your first aid kits, first aid room, and AEDs. Our inspectors verify contents, replace missing or expired items, apply tamper seals and inspection tags, and assess room readiness. For AEDs, we assess functionality, check expiry dates, and update maintenance and registration records.
Will I receive documentation after each inspection?
Yes. Commissionaires provides a detailed inspection report after every visit, summarizing findings, actions taken, expiry dates, and recommendations. Reports can be retained for audits and demonstrate due diligence to safety committees, regulators, and insurers.
Can these services be combined with our existing security or facility management program?
Absolutely. Our First Aid & AED Compliance Services can be seamlessly integrated with your on-site security, concierge, or facility management programs. This unified approach ensures consistent standards, efficient communication, and simplified vendor management—all backed by Commissionaires’ 100+ years of experience in safety and protection.
