Workplaces Ordered to Station First-Aid Trained Staff
TDT | Manama First-aid trained staff must now be present at every Bahraini workplace under new Health Ministry rules aimed at preventing injuries from becoming fatal. The decision, published in the latest edition of the Official Gazette, lays out new requirements for employers across the private sector. Each site must be ready to deal with medical emergencies, and help must be called at once if someone is badly hurt or suddenly falls ill at work. Names One trained person is needed for every 20 workers, and their names must be kept in a log on site. They must hold a recognised certificate showing they've completed at least one course in first aid. Supplies Another employee must be named to check supplies and deal with inspectors when needed. First-Aid Kits Workplaces must keep first-aid boxes stocked with items listed in a table attached to the ministerial order. These kits must be easy to find and checked regularly to ensure everything is usable. One box is needed for every 100 workers or fewer. Emergencies Employers must also put together a plan for emergencies. This should include ambulance contacts, maps showing the nearest clinic, and a layout of exits. The order forms part of Ministerial Decision No. 16 of 2025, signed by Health Minister Her Excellency Dr. Jaleela bint Al Sayed Jawad Hassan. It replaces a 1976 rule on what first-aid boxes should contain. Anyone breaching the new rules may face punishment under Article 192 of the 2012 Labour Law or Article 129 of the Public Health Law, depending on the offence. The decision takes effect the day after it appears in the Gazette.
