I think you have answered your own question here - I have a vision of
someone standing up in court trying to explain the rationale for
putting such a kit on site but having to explain that it could only be
used between 9 - 5...........

Importance: High
The reason for the suggestion was initially the sensitised people who
still work in the vicinity of the products they are sensitised to...in
case they reacted.........although the only known case of this sort of
reaction was an office based worker (who worked daytime office
hours)..... I don't know....if we are going to provide it I think there
should be cover across both the day and night shift but then we will not
get our medics to work a night shift....although they are Dr/G.P.'s they
are employed for their specific knowledge of disease fields not to
administer medical treatment....well only in the case of an emergency
i.e. use of an AED- we have security who are trained to do this on a
night shift!

So Terri
Am I right in my interpretation that the concern is for employees who
may have a reaction due to a personal rather than a work related allergy
(triggered by the girl who had the nut allergy)?
If so and considering that only daytime reactions are considered a
priority (by your esteemed colleagues) is this really a route to be
going down?

Carr
