What first aid kit do I need for a construction site?

Construction sites are classed as higher-risk, so the HSE recommends a BS 8599-1 compliant first aid kit sized to your workforce. As a general guide a small site of fewer than five workers needs at least a small kit, 5 to 25 workers a medium kit, and 25 or more workers one or more large kits, with additional provision based on your risk assessment.

Are eye wash stations a legal requirement on construction sites?

Where workers are exposed to dust, debris, chemicals or other eye hazards and mains tap water is not readily available, employers must provide sterile eye wash. Wall-mounted eye wash stations and single-use pods are a practical way to meet this requirement on site.

What should be in a construction first aid kit?

Beyond the standard BS 8599-1 contents such as dressings, bandages, plasters, gloves and wipes, construction kits often add eye wash, burns dressings, foil blankets and a trauma or bleed control element to deal with the more serious injuries common on building sites.

Do you offer bulk discounts for construction companies?
