But not all first aid kits are created equal. Some have cheaper consumables or short expiry dates. Replacing consumables is time consuming. It can also be hard to know which type of kit is suitable.   ### **Choosing the right first aid kit** According to SafeWork Australia, the contents of a first aid kit should be based on an assessment of risk in the workplace. This includes identifying hazards and assessing the types and severity of injuries they could lead to. A risk assessment for a small office with sedentary workers would likely indicate it requires no more than a basic first aid kit.   But a workplace involved in manual tasks, working with electricity or moving machinery will likely have higher injury risks, and may need additional items beyond the basics.   #### **The Uneedit range of first aid kits** Uneedit first aid kits are designed to address typical injury risks for a variety of workplaces. For motor vehicles: - [MP4-VX Portable Vehicle Kit in Soft Case](https://www.blackwoods.com.au/health-wellbeing/first-aid/vehicle-personal-kits-uneedit/kit-first-aid-vehicle-xtras-deluxe/p/01933656) – this suits vehicles used for trades, sales reps, ride share and other similar workplaces. - [1SG-VP Vehicle Basic Kit](https://www.blackwoods.com.au/health-wellbeing/first-aid/vehicle-personal-kits-uneedit/kit-first-aid-vehicle-glovebox-plus/p/01933639) – a smaller kit that fits in a glove box or can be secured to a belt. Suits a workplace or personal vehicles. For moderate risk workplaces: - [F1-B Moderate Risk Workplace Kit in Plastic Portable Case](https://www.blackwoods.com.au/health-wellbeing/first-aid/workplace-portable-b-kits/kit-first-aid-type-b-1-24-portable-aust/p/01933554) – designed for workplaces with up to 50 workers.

This includes doing a regular check to ensure your kit is well-stocked, and replacing items whenever quantities are getting low.   It’s also important to check for items that are damaged or that have reached their expiry date, in which case they should be discarded and replaced.
