Required provisions and suggested contents
1910.151(b) requires adequate readily available supplies. 1926.50(d) requires easily accessible supplies, weatherproof storage, individually sealed packages by item type, and checks before each job and at least weekly on each job. The following is a planning checklist, not a universal OSHA item/quantity mandate or certification of ANSI compliance. Set quantities for actual hazards, staffing, locations and replenishment access. Review medication provision separately with appropriate medical input.
| Suggested item / category | Approved quantity | On hand | Expiry / condition | Replenish / owner |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nonlatex disposable gloves | ||||
| Sterile absorbent compress dressings | ||||
| Sterile gauze pads | ||||
| Assorted adhesive bandages | ||||
| Roller gauze bandages | ||||
| Triangular bandages | ||||
| Medical adhesive tape | ||||
| Antiseptic wipes | ||||
| Instant cold pack | ||||
| Emergency blanket | ||||
| First-aid instructions and emergency contacts | ||||
| Breathing barrier with one-way valve (trained use) | ||||
| Suitable scissors | ||||
| Tweezers | ||||
| Exposure-related eye/face protection and other PPE as assessed | ||||
| Tourniquet / hemostatic dressing (hazard-specific, trained use) | ||||
| Other employer-approved supplies |
Separately assess AED provision/readiness, emergency communications and suitable corrosive drenching/flushing facilities. A kit bottle is not automatically a substitute for required facilities. Replace used, expired, damaged or contaminated items promptly.
