This HSE compliant first aid kit covers you for workplace health and safety requirements without any fuss. Whether you’re running a small workshop or a busy construction site, having the right kit in place is non-negotiable — and this one ticks the boxes. Contents are based on the 1997 Approved Code of Practice, so you’re not guessing at what should be inside.
The kit comes housed in a polypropylene case with green safety clips, an integrated carry handle, and a secure airtight lid. That lid matters more than people give it credit for. On site, a kit left on a shelf in a damp welfare cabin or a dusty store room can quickly become a soggy mess of unusable dressings. The sealed case keeps everything dry and clean until it’s actually needed.
HSE Compliant First Aid Kit — Three Sizes for Different Sites
Three sizes are available, and which one you need depends on your workforce size and, importantly, the nature of the work. Higher-risk environments may need to step up a size even if the headcount technically falls within the lower bracket. The small kit covers up to 10 persons, medium covers up to 20, and the large is rated for up to 50 — all risk dependent, as the guidance notes.
Every size includes the core HSE-specified items: eye pad dressings, medium and large HSE dressings, washproof plasters, triangular bandages, cleansing wipes, nitrile gloves, safety pins, and a guidance leaflet. Quantities scale up sensibly with each size, so a larger site isn’t left stretching a small kit.
Straightforward to restock, easy to carry, and built to last a decent amount of time in real working conditions. For contractors, site managers, and business owners who just need something reliable on the shelf and compliant with the law, this does exactly what it needs to.
Pro Tip: For higher-risk trades like roofing, groundwork or steel fixing, the Health and Safety Executive recommends selecting a kit size based on risk level rather than headcount alone, so it is worth sizing up even on smaller crews.
These kits are used across a wide range of workplaces: construction sites, workshops, warehouses, offices, garages, and any environment where employers have a legal duty to provide adequate first aid provision. They are particularly common on building sites where contractors need to demonstrate compliance during site inspections. Facilities managers, site supervisors, and business owners across virtually every trade and industry will have some version of this kit on their wall or in their van.

Not suitable for: Not intended as a high-risk or specialist medical kit for environments such as chemical handling, electrical work involving severe burn risk, or remote locations where an enhanced first aid provision may be legally required. Always consult HSE guidance specific to your industry when determining the appropriate level of first aid provision.
Mount the kit in a clearly visible, accessible location at your workplace, ideally on a wall bracket near the entrance to the work area. Make sure all relevant staff know where it is. Check contents regularly, replace any used or expired items promptly, and record the inspection date inside the lid.
Choose the correct size based on your workforce headcount and the level of risk associated with the work being carried out
Mount or store the kit in a clearly signed, accessible location known to all staff on site
Check the contents on arrival to confirm all items are present and within date
Assign a designated first aider who is responsible for the kit and knows how to use the contents
After any items are used, replace them promptly to keep the kit fully stocked
Inspect the kit regularly and log checks — this supports compliance during HSE or insurance audits
Is this kit fully compliant with HSE regulations?
Yes. The contents are based on the Health and Safety Executive's 1997 Approved Code of Practice for workplace first aid. That said, HSE guidance also requires employers to assess their specific workplace risks when deciding what provision is appropriate, so the right kit size and any additional items will depend on your working environment.
How do I know which size to choose for my site?
As a general guide, small covers up to 10 persons, medium up to 20, and large up to 50. However, HSE guidance makes clear that risk level is just as important as headcount. A small crew doing high-risk groundwork or roofing should consider a larger kit than the numbers alone would suggest.
Can this kit be used in a van or mobile workplace?
Yes, the carry handle and sealed airtight case make it a practical choice for vehicle-based use. The lid protects contents from dust and moisture, which matters when a kit is rattling around in the back of a van. The small size is the most practical option for vehicles.
The case is constructed from polypropylene with green safety clips and an airtight lid designed to protect contents from dust and moisture ingress. Contents across all three sizes meet the requirements of the HSE 1997 Approved Code of Practice for workplace first aid provision. All dressings, bandages and plasters are standard HSE-specified consumables. Nitrile gloves are included for infection control during first aid treatment.
