First aid kits

Signature first aid kit from St John Ambulance

Under the Heath & Safety (First aid) regulations it is the duty of every employer to provide at least one first aid container for each work site.

Choosing the right first aid kit

The employer, through risk assessment of the workplace, must determine the number, content and location of a first aid kit. The Approved Code of Practice provides a guide to the minimum stock of the first aid items required in the workplace (where no special risk arises).

The basic first aid kits can be supplemented with a range of products for special environments and risks.

St John Ambulance recommends eye wash, burns treatment, resuscitation masks, and cold packs as possible additions.
