Health and Safety Regulations

In order to comply with the Health and Safety (first aid) Regulations 1981, employers must establish proper arrangements to promptly attend to any injuries or illnesses that may occur in the workplace.

This involves conducting a thorough risk assessment, designating an adequate amount of first aiders, and providing them with the appropriate training. The QA Level 3 Award in First Aid at Work is a regulated qualification so employers will be fulfilling their legal responsibilities by providing it for employees.

Outside of legal requirements, adequate first aid at work training is in the best interest of everyone’s safety. This includes employers, employees and customers.
