First aid

The provision on the job, and the people trained.

  • On the file

    The kit, where it is, and who is trained.

  • Duty

    Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981

  • Where it is used

    On site, before the shift.

What it does

  • The kit, the location, and the check that it is complete.

  • Enough for the numbers and the risk on that site.

On the file

  • The kit and where it is
  • The check that it is complete
  • Who is trained

  • The kit check is on a schedule.

The duty

UK law. We name it. We do not invent a badge.

  • Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981
