Why Every Canadian Workplace Needs a CSA Type 3 First Aid Kit
Understanding CSA Z1220-17 & Choosing the Right Kit for Your Team
When it comes to workplace safety in Canada, having a proper first aid kit is more than just a good idea—it’s the law.
Under the CSA Z1220-17 standard, all Canadian workplaces are required to maintain first aid kits that match the number of employees and level of workplace risk. This national standard helps employers select the right kit based on workforce size and environment.
At Servoxy, we offer a range of CSA-compliant kits—but today, we’re highlighting the ultimate solution for busy, high-risk work environments:
