Coming Soon: Cardiac emergencies are as real a threat as falls or electrical injuries on construction sites. Ontario’s O. Reg. 157/25 now requires that any project lasting three months or longer and employing 20 or more workers have an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) on site. AED4Life helps construction leaders meet this life-saving standard with the best-in-class equipment and compliance tools

Why AEDs Matter on Construction Sites

Heavy labour, heat stress, and long shifts increase the risk of Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA). When this happens, survival depends on immediate CPR and defibrillation within minutes. AED4Life supplies Health Canada-approved AEDs built for rugged environments—like the ZOLL AED 3, ZOLL AED Plus, Cardiac Science Powerheart G5, and Philips OnSite AED—that guide rescuers step-by-step through voice prompts and visual indicators.
