Where should a burns first aid kit be located in a workplace?

A burns kit should be positioned somewhere readily accessible and known to the people working in the area. In environments with an increased burn risk, it is sensible to locate specialist supplies close enough to be accessed promptly without placing the kit itself in a hazardous position.

Why have a dedicated burns kit as well as a general first aid kit?

A dedicated burns kit keeps supplies intended for burn incidents together in an easily identifiable case. This can be particularly useful in higher-risk environments such as kitchens, catering operations and food production areas where burns and scalds are foreseeable workplace hazards.

What should workplaces consider when choosing first aid equipment?

The Health and Safety Executive advises employers to assess their first aid needs according to workplace circumstances, hazards and workforce. This helps determine what equipment, facilities and personnel are appropriate rather than relying on a single standard arrangement for every workplace.
