LTD. 400 Huron Street, Stratford 271-9557 56 THE RURAL VOICE ADVICE EMPLOYERS MUST OFFER FIRST AID Under Ontario's Workers' Compen- sation Act, all employers are required to provide first aid equipment, facilities, and trained personnel. Details are specified in the Workers' Compensation Board Publication 950 (First Aid Regulations). Copies of this booklet may be obtained from the WCB in your area. Minimum Worker's Compensation Board requirements for first aid kits in the farm workplace include the follow- ing: • current edition of the standard St. John's Ambulance First Aid Manual; • one card of safety pins; • dressings consisting of — 16 adhesive dressings, individually wrapped, — six sterile gauze pads, three inches square, — four rolls of three-inch gauze bandage, — two sterile surgical pads suitable for pressure dressings, individually wrapped, and — four triangular bandages. More elaborate first aid kits are re- quired where large numbers of workers are employed. Unnecessary equipment, or equipment that may deteriorate (adhesive tape) or is potentially danger- ous (greasy ointments), should not be included in a first aid box. The WCB requires that boxes be checked regularly (at least four times a year) to ensure that everything is in good order. First aid boxes should be in the charge of workers who hold valid first aid certificates. It's best to ensure that at least two people in the operation have first aid training. If only one worker holds a certificate, what happens if that individual is injured? Advice about additional items for first aid boxes that might be appropriate in a specific type of work environment can be obtained from the Occupational Health and Safety Education Authority.
