ANSI Standard Scope and Purpose ANSI Z308.1-2009
Scope and Purpose This standard establishes minimum performance requirements for first aid kits and their contents 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 products and quantities based upon consultation and recommendation of a person competent in first aid and cognizant of hazards found in the particular work environment.
Compliance To be in compliance with this standard, first aid kits must contain the required products and meet all other applicable requirements in their entirety. This standard anticipates that additional first aid products will be included to augment the kit, based upon the specific hazards existing in a particular environment.
