First Aid

Accidents can occur anytime and anywhere. You can help reduce the risk of infection and/or the severity of the injury with adequate first aid supplies.

DO YOU KNOW THE GOLDEN HOUR PHILOSOPHY?

Medical records have shown that if a patient has received proper medical treatment, within one hour of his trauma, his chances of survival may double. The time of recovery was shorter and more patients made a complete recovery.

According to the Occupational Health and Safety Act no. 85 of 1993, an employer must take all reasonable steps to ensure that all persons in the workplace receive prompt first aid treatment in case of an injury or emergency.

The Act forces employers who employ more than 5 person, to provide a first aid box near the workplace that is always and anytime accessible for the treatment of an injured person.
