Hard to come up with specifics. Where do you work? You can also buy a prefilled kit, but they are expensive and not very practicle. Some companies will sell the kit and train you on how to use the stuff, but then they keep coming back and replacing stuff and fleecing the companies they service. I was approached by a company to work for them and refused to do it. Try to avoid these people.
Latex free protective gloves
Pocket mask for CPR
5-10 4×4 or 3×3 gauze pads
a couple of rolls of 3 in gauze
a couple rolls 1in gauze
1 in tape
Bandaids
Betadine scrub (Small bottle)
Neosporin ointment
small bottle of saline for irrigation of eyes
tweezers / scissors / safety pins
a triangular bandage
an emergency foil blanket
1-2 instant cold packs
