Factory OHC supplies — what to stock

The supplies an Indian factory occupational health centre keeps, grouped the way an OHC orders them. Use these as procurement checklists for the first-aid boxes, the ambulance room and the OHC itself.

• Medicines — OPD pharmacy stock, emergency drugs, tablets (12 items)
• First Aid Supplies — Dressings, bandages, antiseptics for FA boxes (10 items)
• Emergency Equipment — AED, oxygen, ambu bags, crash cart supplies (9 items)
• PPE — Gloves, masks, goggles, protective gear (8 items)
• Diagnostic Devices — BP apparatus, stethoscope, glucometer, thermometers (10 items)
• Biomedical Waste — Color-coded bins, liners, sharps containers (8 items)

Quantities for first-aid boxes are prescribed by the Factories Act 1948 s.45 and the State Factories Rules — see the statutory forms and your State rules for the binding list.
