The OSHA requirement at 1910.151(b) states, “In the absence of an infirmary, clinic, or hospital in near proximity to the workplace which is used for the treatment of all injured employees, a person or persons shall be adequately trained to render first aid.” OSHA also expects that adequate first-aid supplies shall be readily available.
While paragraph (b) calls for adequate training, it does not require an employer to designate any employee to render first aid. See the May 25, 2004, OSHA letter of interpretation.
