Bibliography

Describes requirements for the compilation of first aid components in three sizes of first aid kits (small, medium and large) for use in motor vehicles.

This part of BS 8599 specifies requirements for the compilation of first aid components in three sizes of first aid kits (small, medium and large) for use in motor vehicles.

Requirements are also given for the container holding the components.

NOTE1 Motor vehicle first aid kits can be complemented by other items that have been identified during a risk assessment. Where there are unusual hazards that are specific to a particular use of a vehicle, such as vehicles carrying dangerous chemicals (e.g. hydrofluoric acid), first aid kits might need to be supplemented with additional appropriate components.

NOTE2 AnnexA gives recommendations on the number and size of the first aid kits necessary for different vehicle types and numbers of passengers.

NOTE3 AnnexB gives details of vehicle categories as defined by the European Commission [1].

NOTE4 A workplace risk assessment might determine that the vehicle motor kit is suitable for a lone worker.
