First Aid in the Workplace

'Adequate and appropriate’ will depend on the circumstances in your workplace and it’s your legal duty as an employer to make an assessment of what your first-aid needs are. 
 
As a minimum, first aid provision should include:
 
  • a suitably stocked first-aid kit
  • an appointed person to take charge of first-aid arrangements
  • information for employees about first-aid arrangements
The requirements for a first aid kit depend on the size, risk level
and nature of the workplace. The table provides a simple
breakdown in terms of size.
 

All employers must provide an appointed person, who is responsible for looking after first aid equipment and calling emergency services when required; they do not need to be trained in first aid.

However, larger workplaces, or those with higher risks, do need to provide trained first aiders. The table provides further guidance on whether your workplace is likely to require a trained first aider.

We have a comprehensive range of first aid equipment and consumables to help you meet your statutory obligations.


From recently updated BS 8599 Compliant First Aid Kits and combination First Aid Stations, through to Body Fluid Disposal Kits and treatment for burns, SafetyBuyer.com can help keep your workforce protected.
