Legislation in ACT

What ACT law actually requires

There is no AED-specific Act, Bill or government registry in the ACT — making it the territory with the weakest official AED infrastructure in Australia. Workplaces sit under the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 (ACT) plus the model WHS first aid code.

Under WHS duty of care, ACT employers need to consider AED provision against the "reasonably practicable" test. The Commonwealth-tenanted building stock in Canberra means many sites interact with both ACT WHS and Comcare WHS regimes — landlords retain the AED duty for common areas.

ACT AED registration runs through St John Ambulance ACT (the territory does not operate its own registry). SafePulse does not provide legal advice. We supply TGA-approved AEDs, install them properly, handle St John ACT registration, and run six-monthly maintenance.

schedule

Six-monthly maintenance

Scheduled servicing keeps every unit operational. Smart installs add 24/7 monitoring that fills the discoverability gap.

Install packages

Smart by default. Standard if you’d rather.

Both packages include the AED unit, cabinet, signage and SA Ambulance registration. The choice is how much of the ongoing maintenance you want us to handle.
