Yes if they believe in safe practices and ethical work culture. In fact , every work unit or section should have their own first aid kit which should be mandatory for the organization and inspected for the worthiness and updated items in the First Aid Kit. LTI can eat up more production cost or man-hours if first aid kit is not in place. Attitude of management is the key for such initiatives.

of course. Safety and health is the first most priority in your working place. Not only FAK but also a trained doctor or Nurse should be there to help in emergency cases.

It is not always practical to have an in-house medical facility or infirmary in the workplace. To ensure the business is prepared for unexpected injury, federal regulations require businesses to maintain properly stocked first aid kits in convenient areas when an in-house medical facility is not present on the premises.

Your question includes word "legally". With this term the answer would vary for each country.

 

Each country has a different law for various industries. But in general, it's a good safety practice.
