The BS8599-1:2019 Critical Injury Pack is a compact, grab-ready trauma kit designed to deliver urgent, life-saving first aid for major bleeding injuries in the workplace. Housed in a Stockholm shoulder bag for rapid deployment, it contains large trauma dressings, haemostatic wound treatments, a tourniquet, shears and PPE, giving trained first aiders the tools to control catastrophic haemorrhage before emergency services arrive. Employers should maintain sufficient packs based on their workplace risk assessment and the maximum number of people on site at any one time.
