Industrial First Aid Kits  All of our industrial first aid kits meet or exceed Federal OSHA standards. Our first aid kits are made of metal or plastic which meet or exceed Federal OSHA standards and exceed the ANSI requirements. In 1998 the Medical Services and First Aid regulation, 29 CFR 1910-151, was revised. The revision states, "in the absence of an infirmary, clinic, or hospital in near proximity to the workplace which is used for the treatment of all injured employees, a person or persons shall be adequately trained to render first aid. Adequate first aid supplies shall be readily available." The revised regulation eliminated the statement, ". . . first aid supplies approved by the consulting physician shall be readily available." In addition to the regulation was Appendix A--a non-mandatory guideline. This appendix demonstrates an example of the minimal contents of generic first aid kits according to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Z308.1-1978, Minimum Requirements for Industrial Unit-Type First Aid Kits.* The contents listed in Z308.1-1978 should be adequate for small worksites. The employer is responsible for determining the need for additional first-aid kits, quantities and the types of supplies at the worksite for large/larger worksites. As per ANSI standard (ANSI Z308.1-2003) "Kits in compliance with this standard will provide a basic range of products to deal with most types of injuries encountered in the workplace. The assortment of required contents was developed based on treatment for the following potential injuries: major wounds, minor wounds (cuts and abrasions), minor burns and eye injuries. It is important to note that each workplace is unique and, as such, additional first aid products should be selected to augment required contents based on the particular work environment" |
