First aid kit checklist
A first aid kit checklist keeps your site kit stocked and in date. Contents should suit the size and hazards of the site, and the kit should be easy to find, with trained first aiders known to the crew. Check it regularly and after any use.

Common questions
▸What should be in a construction first aid kit?
Dressings and bandages in a range of sizes, eye flushing, gloves, a resuscitation shield, scissors, burn treatment, and a first aid guide, scaled to the size and hazards of the site.
▸How often should the first aid kit be checked?
Regularly, and after every use. Replace used and expired items promptly so the kit is ready when it is needed.
Need the SWMS itself, not just a checklist?
A checklist confirms controls are in place; a SWMS is the document the law requires before high risk construction work starts. Generate a site-specific one for your trade.
