Quebec CNESST First Aid Room Equipment & Supplies
Under the First-aid Minimum Standards Regulation (A-3.001, r. 10), the CNESST requires employers in establishments or principal contractors on construction sites with more than 100 workers to provide a dedicated First Aid Room (local de premiers secours). This facility requires specific physical furnishings, such as a stretcher, a table with two chairs, and a water supply with soap and a nail brush. The room must also be equipped with advanced CSA Z1220-17 compliant trauma supplies that go far beyond standard wall-mounted kits. Our First Aid Room equipment and supplies are pre-configured to ensure 100% compliance with current Quebec CNESST regulations.

Quebec First Aid Room Compliance FAQ
Which businesses are required to have a First Aid Room in Quebec?
Under the CNESST First-aid Minimum Standards Regulation (A-3.001, r. 10), an establishment or a construction site having more than 100 workers must provide a dedicated First Aid Room (local de premiers secours). It must be available and easily accessible at all times during working hours.
What are the physical facility and furnishing requirements for a Quebec First Aid Room?
The room must be kept clean, ventilated, well-lit, adequately heated, and supplied with water. To comply with CNESST standards, the room specifically must be equipped with a stretcher, one table, two chairs, soap, a nail brush, and paper towels.
What supplies and equipment are required in a Quebec First Aid Room?
The room must contain the minimum contents of a CSA Z1220-17 first aid kit appropriately sized for the workforce (typically a Large Type 3 Intermediate kit for 100+ workers). It also explicitly requires a communication system to immediately contact emergency services, with the communication procedures clearly posted nearby.
Who must be in charge of a Quebec First Aid Room?
The employer or general contractor must ensure that at least one qualified first-aider is present at all times for the first 50 workers, and an additional first-aider for every additional 100 workers (or fraction thereof). The names and work locations of first-aiders must be visibly posted. On construction sites, first-aiders must wear a safety hat bearing a cross.
Can I reorder individual supplies to restock my First Aid Room?
Yes. We offer individual replacement items—from CSA-compliant trauma supplies to registers and signage—to ensure your Quebec First Aid Room remains fully compliant and ready for emergency response at all times.
