The MERE Critical Injury Workplace BS-8599-1:2019 standard specifies the requirements for the provision of first aid kits in the workplace. A critical injury kit, also known as a trauma kit or major injury kit, is a specialised first aid kit designed to provide supplies and equipment for managing severe or life-threatening injuries. To ensure compliance with the BS-8599-1:2019 standard, a critical injury kit should meet the specific requirements outlined in the standard. Any workplace or organisation in the UK that conducts a risk assessment and determines a need for a first aid kit would benefit from using BS 8599-1:2019 compliant first aid kits. This includes a wide range of industries such as offices, schools, construction sites, manufacturing facilities, retail establishments, and more.
It is the responsibility of the employer or the responsible person within an organization to conduct a risk assessment and determine the appropriate type of first aid kit needed to address potential injuries or medical emergencies in their specific workplace.
