Description

With this order, standards listed in the attached schedule for the following equipment and personal protective equipment meet compliance requirements on work sites regulated by the Government of Alberta:

• Personal protective equipment for hearing protection, eye protection, footwear, protective headwear, personal flotation devices and lifejackets and first aid equipment.

• First aid kit contents.

Inter-jurisdictional Recognitions provide flexibility by recognizing standards adopted in different Canadian jurisdictions. These may be issued where another jurisdiction’s standard appropriately protects the health and safety of workers in Alberta while also supporting interprovincial trade and labour mobility.
