About First Aid Training Courses
Our online first aid courses give individuals the knowledge and skills to respond effectively in an emergency and treat patients until medical help arrives.
Courses cover a range of essential skills, preparing users to manage various types of injury and deliver potentially life-saving interventions, including CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation), AED use and choking relief. With these skills, employees become capable and confident first responders, ready to make a difference when it matters most.
Why Are Workplace First Aid Courses Important?
In Great Britain, 565,000 people suffered from a non-fatal injury at work and 36.8 million working days were lost due to work-related illness and injury, according to the Labour Force Survey (LFS).
First aid courses promote employee wellbeing and help minimise the harm of workplace accidents and injuries, contributing to a safer and more productive work environment.
Users develop the knowledge to respond effectively in emergencies and provide life-saving care until professional help arrives. These courses cover essential skills such as CPR, AED use and immediate injury treatment to prepare users to confidently respond to a range of workplace medical emergencies.
Are You Aware of Your Responsibilities?
Ensuring the safety and well-being of employees is a fundamental responsibility for any employer. To fulfil these responsibilities, it’s crucial to understand your obligations under the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981.
These regulations extend to all workplaces, regardless of the size or nature of your business. This includes organisations with fewer than five employees and the self-employed.
According to these regulations, employers must:
- Ensure adequate and appropriate first aid equipment and facilities
- Provide first aid training
- Make employees aware of first aid arrangements
Fulfilling these responsibilities as an employer will help you contribute to a safer and more secure work environment for everyone.
