  • Greetings all,

    Sorry to differ with you all. One is not permitted to place tablets of any type in the First Aid Boxes put up on the work floors for the workers. Tablets or drinkable medication can only be kept in the HR Office/Doctor's Room under lock and key and are to be given by a trained or qualified person only.
