Why Choose a BSI-Compliant First Aid Kit?
The British Standards Institute (BSI) is the UK’s national standards body and sets rigorous specifications for safety equipment, including workplace first aid kits. The BS 8599-1 standard builds on the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 by recommending a more comprehensive selection of supplies that better reflect modern workplace risks.
Compared to basic HSE kits, BSI kits include a broader range of contents designed to address a wider spectrum of potential injuries, especially important in environments with increased hazards like catering, manufacturing, or engineering.
