٤ نصائح لصيانة وتجديد حقيبة الإسعافات الأولية الخاصة بك

Workplace incidents can happen anytime and anywhere, and it’s essential to be prepared for them. One way to ensure your employees’ safety is by having a well-stocked first aid kit readily available.

We’ve created a checklist for مستلزمات الإسعافات الأولية to help you maintain a safe working environment.

This list will guide you through all the basic things to consider.

First, determine the level risk in your workplace. Confirm that the kits you currently have are appropriate.

Low risk is the name given to workplaces or areas where there are low chances of serious injuries that require first-aid treatment. An office is an example.

Workplaces with moderate risk are those that involve manual work or some machinery. A warehouse, for example, with a pallet racking system, a lift, and different levels, is an example of a workplace that poses a moderate risk.

High risk workplaces are those that have hazards and injuries must be prevented. Examples include the use of heavy machines, extreme temperatures, chemicals, etc.

Each work vehicle is also considered a part of the workplace.

Are your current first-aid kits still appropriate?

Check the outer first-aid box, bag, or cabinet for cleanliness, hygiene, and structural soundness.

Check the contents. You should have a manifest or list in your first aid kit. This will help you to ensure that the products are intact, in date and present.

TIP: if you can’t find a list, visit https://www.senyangmedical.com/manufacturer/workplace-first-aid-kits/ and find a matching kit and use this list.

The fourth and final in your first aid kit contains some important tools such as scissors. Forceps. Tweezers. These should be usable and, if necessary, cleaned and disinfected.

One more thing you should check is the number of first aiders you have for the number and type of employees at your workplace. Consider appointing an employee to be in charge of your workplace kit. This person should know where the kit is at all times and conduct periodic checks to determine when new items are needed. It’s also a good idea to provide training to your employees on how to use the items in the kit.
