We're getting ready for our first BRC next month. Our company has a facility in Canada and we're in the US.
Regulatory (Can) wants our first aid cabinets locked, and ALL band-aids traced. Basically, a checklist of who took how many band aids. We do have metal detectable, blue band aids and will start metal detecting each box of band-aids before the cabinets are restocked.
I was talking to our safety officer and we both think that's overkill. Have a first aid cabinet in each hygiene room. Someone needs a band aid, they go to the hygiene room, wash their hands, apply the band aid, get new gloves and return to work.
Just what is required as far as band aids?
Of course, if an injury needs more than a band aid, additional action will be taken.
