FAQ

Do my business need first aid training?

The minimum first aid requirement in every workplace is:

a first aid box (including the appropriate equipment);
a person trained to administer first aid;
first aid information for all employees.

Every employer in the UK, regardless of the size of the company, is legally obliged to plan for the provision of first aid at work.

Employers must make sure that someone is always available to give or arrange first aid. This applies if the designated first aider is absent for any reason. First aiders must have a valid first aid training certificate.

It is not a legal requirement that all employers have a fully trained first aider, but someone must be appointed to take charge of first aid in the workplace.

We have staff with First Aid certificates, do they need training?

First aid refresher courses (typically lasting between 3 to 4 hours) are recommended annually by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) to keep skills and confidence high between full certifications. They cover core skills like CPR, AED awareness, choking, bleeding, and recovery positions, often featuring practical scenarios that can be found in the workplace.
