Overview
What this RAVS document does
BC sets out the first aid attendants, supplies, and equipment an employer must have based on worker numbers, the hazard rating of the work, and the distance to medical aid. Hiring clients require a first aid answer because they need to see a contractor meets those requirements on its worksites.
This document states your company's first aid program in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: how first aid requirements are assessed, attendant certification and coverage, supplies and equipment, transportation of an injured worker, and record-keeping. Each point ties back to the BC OHS Regulation. The file arrives in editable Word format - add your company name, confirm the company-specific details, and upload.
What the reviewer verifies
What ISNetworld checks
ISNetworld does not just check that a first aid answer exists. A reviewer verifies the document addresses each requirement the hiring client has configured. For the first aid element, that typically means confirming the document covers:
- A written first aid program with a clear purpose and scope
- How first aid requirements are assessed for each worksite
- First aid attendant certification and coverage across shifts and sites
- First aid supplies, kits, and equipment
- Transportation arrangements for an injured worker
- First aid records and reporting

Who it is for
Who needs this RAVS
This RAVS is for BC contractors whose hiring clients require the first aid element in ISNetworld, Avetta, or ComplyWorks. Because every employer has first aid obligations, the element is required across construction, oil and gas, utilities, transportation, and the trades. If a hiring client's configuration flags first aid, this is the document the reviewer is waiting on.
Practical guidance
How to pass the first aid review the first time
- Use the BC version. The document is written to the BC OHS Regulation, the framework WorkSafeBC enforces and ISNetworld reviewers expect for BC work.
- Match coverage to your worksites. First aid requirements scale with worker numbers, hazard rating, and distance to medical aid - confirm your coverage meets the requirement for your sites.
- Keep attendant certificates current. The RAVS states first aid attendants are certified. Keep the certificates on file for a hiring client audit.
