How Many First Aid Kits Does a Worksite Need?

The number of kits depends on your workforce size and layout:

• Small teams: At least one accessible kit
• Medium sites: Multiple kits across zones
• Large sites: Dedicated first aid stations

Do Construction Sites Need a Defibrillator?

While not always mandatory, defibrillators are increasingly recommended on construction sites — especially where:

• Workers are spread across large areas
• Emergency response times may be delayed
• There are higher-risk workers

Other considerations

• Construction sites require 1 First Aider per 25 workers
• Locate your kit close to potential accident sites and near running water for simpler treatment of burns and wound cleaning requirements.
• Quick access to your First Aid Kit is vital. Locate it in your vehicle accordingly.
• Always consider having a Defibrillator on the job site. Our 500P is perfect for every level of CPR training you may have on your job site.
• If you are the site supervisor, engage with your workers on safe work practices - put a recurring meeting in your diary. Discuss and identify risks and hazards. Feedback from the team is essential to mitigate risk.
• Keep a register of accidents and near misses. Review this register on a regular basis and give feedback to your workers with the work that is being done to make their job site safer.
