Workplace Safety and Insurance Act: Regulation 1101
Many companies are covered by the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB), meaning that if an employee gets injured at work, they will be eligible to file a claim in order to receive insurance and/or support.
What Is Regulation 1101?
Regulation 1101 is a guideline that employers must follow under the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act. This includes requirements such as first aid, a first aid room, specific items inside a first aid kit, an employee/employees who are trained to provide first aid and more.
The necessary requirements differ from workplace to workplace depending on the amount of employees on site. We recommend employers to check the WSIB website
