Dot It expands product offerings to include first aid solutions.
Arlington, TX (RestaurantNews.com) Dot It Restaurant Fulfillment announces partnership with First Aid Only, a long-time leader in the first aid industry. Dot It will be a distributor of First Aid Only’s product line including but not limited to first aid kits, SmartCompliance cabinets, first aid refills, eye care, burn care, and bloodborne pathogen cleanup kits. All first aid products were designed to meet the needs of those in the foodservice and restaurant industry. Over 60 products will be available for sale online at www.DotIt.com or via phone at 800-642-3687.
Dot It’s CEO, Gary Cooper, comments “We saw a need in the foodservice industry for a simpler, more cost effective way to manage first aid programs that maintained OSHA and ANSI compliance and provided the tools necessary to handle medical emergencies. Our partnership with First Aid Only helped us bridge that gap.”
The U.S. Department of Labor Occupational Safety Health Administration (OSHA) is responsible for worker safety and health protection. Within Appendix A of OSHA guidelines are the ANSI standards for first aid kit specifications and kit requirements which was recently updated in 2015. In order to comply with 2015 ANSI standards and avoid undue penalties, restaurants must meet minimum first aid kit requirements. Dot It intends to help restaurants meet these new 2015 ANSI standards with the help of First Aid Only’s product line.
First Aid Only’s signature SmartCompliance cabinets were originally introduced to the market in 2004. SmartCompliance cabinets meet or exceed OSHA and ANSI standards, can be customized to fit individual needs, have an innovative, flexible design, and contain patented SmartCompliance technology. The patented snap-in boxes are color-coded and clearly labeled so employees can easily locate supplies in medical emergencies. Each product box has a patented SmartTab ezRefill indicator tab that alerts restaurant owners when supplies are low and contains all the pertinent reorder information.
The first aid kits are designed specifically for kitchen use and contain finger cots and blue, metal detectable adhesive bandages. The bright blue color ensures bandages won’t get lost during food preparation or handling, a common fear and food safety hazard for restaurants. The bandages also have a thin line of foil running through them that is detectable by most metal detectors on food processing lines.
