First Aid in the workplace

According to the Health and Safety Authority, it is necessary for employers to provide first aid materials at all places of work where working conditions require it. Depending on the size and specific hazards of the work environment, trained first aiders must also be provided. As different work environments have different hazards, different first aid kits are necessary. For example, offices have relatively low hazards in comparison to environments such as factories or construction sites. Therefore, several factors should be considered when choosing first aid supplies including, the size of the work environment, the number of people employed and specific hazards in the workplace.

Please feel free to browse through our range of online first aid kits. Below is a quick list of buying tips when purchasing first aid kits:

• Since accidents can happen literally anywhere and anytime it is worth having a reliable first aid kit available at all times, both at home and at work. First aid kit is a group of products and equipment used when first aid is necessary – such kits can be assembled individually at home or workplace or you can buy full kits which include all the essential first aid supplies. First aid kits are available in many variants depending on the health and safety requirements and type of environment they are going to be used in.

• For first aid kits used within EU there are certain standards regarding their identification such as ISO first aid symbol – white cross with even arms on a green background. A lot of first aid kits use white cross with green border line around it if the box comes in a different colour than green.

• When buying a first aid kit for a workplace you should consider the number of people within premises and also the type of work that is carried out. For office and retail purposes a general first aid kits are the best choice as they incorporate all the essential first aid supplies. For places which involve catering and food preparation you might choose food hygiene first aid kits. Most of the First Aid Kits available here on HuntOffice indicate the number of users the first aid kit is suitable for, so whether you're a home, small or large business user you can choose the appropriate first aid kit to suit your premises.

	Great Workplace First Aid Kit!
	""Based on a suggestion by our safety officer we organised to have 12 staff added to our first aid team. Because the number of staff had increased significantly we did not have a sufficient number trained in first aid. We also invested in 4 of these wallace cameron first response bags. One for each shift and an extra one for our weekend shift. We were going to go to the expense of pricing everything individually but when we saw these wallace cameron first response bags, we did not need to. It has absolutely everything we needed to ensure that in the unlikely event of an accident we were completely coverd.""
