First-aid equipment: easy access at all times

First-aid equipment must be easily accessible in any company. The equipment involved may vary depending on the business sector. 

In case of employee accident or illness, first-aid equipment must be fit for use at all times. The equipment involved depends on the risks incurred, the business sector and the company's facilities.

First aid can range from a simple kit with disinfectant and bandages to the presence of nurses on site. Equipment must be placed strategically and easily accessible. Companies are also advised to display emergency numbers next to each phone.
