Daylight Saving Time is ending again, and while most of us are focused on changing our clocks, this time of year is also a great reminder to check something just as important: your first aid kits.
Whether it’s at the jobsite, in the shop, in work vehicles, or even at home, first aid supplies tend to get used slowly and quietly over time. Before you know it, items go missing, medications expire, and kits become disorganized. A quick seasonal check can make a big difference in how prepared you are when something unexpected happens.
This Sunday, as you set your clocks back an hour, take a few minutes to:
-
Look through your first aid kits
-
Replace anything expired or damaged
-
Restock items that have been used up
-
Make sure everything is stored neatly and easy to access
It’s a small task that pays off when you need it most.
Your first aid kits should be:
-
Fully stocked and organized
-
Free of expired products
-
Ready to handle any emergency
These simple checks help ensure your workplace stays compliant, and more importantly, that your team stays safe.
If you find items missing, out of date, or if you need help building or replenishing kits, Colorado Safety Supply can assist. We carry a full range of first aid supplies and can help make sure your kits meet OSHA and jobsite requirements.
A quick check today can help keep your business prepared tomorrow.
