Which of the following is NOT covered by the Worker Protection Standard (WPS)?

The correct answer is that administering first aid directly on-site is not covered by the Worker Protection Standard (WPS). The WPS focuses on protecting agricultural workers from pesticide exposure and requires employers to provide specific safety measures. This includes ensuring that decontamination supplies are available, providing safety training to workers, and posting information about pesticide application sites to inform workers of potential hazards.

While first aid is crucial in a workplace, it is not a primary focus of the WPS. Instead, the standard emphasizes preventive measures and information sharing to minimize the risk of pesticide exposure rather than detailing medical response protocols like onsite first aid administration. The expectation is that employers would have separate policies or training for emergency response and first aid, which are important but fall outside the specific mandates of the WPS.
