Emergency
First Aid at Work
6 Hour Course
This course is designed for anyone who would like to receive training in Emergency First Aid.
It is especially suited for nominated first aiders in smaller, low risk working environments in line with the Health & Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981, which require that all employers have appropriately trained personnel that are able to provide immediate attention to those who are injured or taken ill at work. This applies to all companies, including those with fewer than 5 employees.
The Emergency First Aid at Work (6 Hour) course is an accredited course providing nationally recognised training meeting the HSE requirements and resulting in a 3 year qualification upon successful completion.
We are able to deliver this course in-house at your place of work as one full day of learning. We also offer this as an open course at our venue in Hertfordshire.
