The bill S. 935, introduced by Senator Tedder, aims to enhance workplace safety by requiring the South Carolina Department of Public Health to create an informational pamphlet on rendering first aid to individuals who experience seizures in the workplace. This pamphlet will be made available on the Department's website and must be posted in a conspicuous location by the chief executive officer of every state governmental entity. The pamphlet may include guidance from federal sources or nonprofit organizations that focus on epilepsy and seizure disorders.

Additionally, the bill defines "seizure first aid" as nonmedical procedures to assist individuals experiencing specific types of seizures, namely primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures or complex partial seizures. It also clarifies that "state governmental entity" encompasses the state itself, state agencies across various branches of government, and political subdivisions. The act will take effect upon the Governor's approval.
