scope:

This standard establishes minimum performance requirements for first aid kits and their supplies that are intended for use in various work environments. Because each work environment is unique, it is expected that the required products will be supplemented with additional supplies and quantities based upon the consultation and recommendation of a person competent in first aid and cognizant of the hazards found in the particular work environment and upon the number of persons who may need first aid at one time. Persons determining the content of first aid kits should additionally consult federal, state and local requirements regarding the types and quantities of material to be included.
