Do first aid supplies expire? The dated layer does - antiseptics, ointments, eyewash, medications and every sterile item - while adhesives, gloves and tourniquets fail by material aging with no date to warn you. This guide charts each supply, where its date lives, what actually fails, and the rotation workflow that keeps a kit in date.

A first aid kit inspection checklist mapped to what OSHA actually requires: the continuous adequacy duty in 29 CFR 1910.151(b) and construction's weekly check in 1926.50(d)(2). Covers the pass/fail table, the eight-step procedure, inspection frequency by workplace type, expiration dates, and the record that proves the cadence happened.
