In many countries, there are laws and regulations around workplace safety that may require AEDs to be available in certain types of businesses or industries, especially those with large workforces or high-risk environments (e.g., gyms, factories). In the U.S., for example, the Cardiac Arrest Survival Act and Good Samaritan Laws provide legal protections to organizations and individuals who use AEDs in good faith during an emergency. Organizations should check local regulations to ensure compliance.
