First aid kit health and safety
As injuries at work can be life-threatening you should be able to reach a kit within 60 seconds. If your staff are split over more than one floor, you must have at least one kit per floor. First aid kits should be positioned where people see them every day so that in the event of an emergency, people will remember where to find them.
First aid kits save lives and are required by law! In the event of sudden injury, failure to provide sufficient first aid could have extremely serious consequences. Employers and managers should therefore ensure an employee who is injured or taken ill at work receives immediate attention.
We also have Lone Worker and Off-Site first aid kits, suitable for employees that work away from the workplace, so you can stay on the right side of the law.
Provide first aid supplies in a high-risk workplace
We've included a burn dressing that ensures you can treat a skin burn, reduce the pain without the need to keep the burn under running water. A versatile occupational first aid kit could save a life in a high-hazard workplace, including warehouses, workshops, construction sites & manufacturing environments.
