1 Day Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW)



This course is designed to give a good basic knowledge of first aid. It qualifies an individual to HSE recommendations in a low risk environment.

Delegates will be continuously assessed by the instructor and warded a 3 year certification on successful completion.

Description

Where an employer’s assessment of First Aid needs identifies that a First Aider is not
necessary, the minimum requirement for an employer is to appoint a person to take charge of
the First Aid arrangements. This includes looking after the equipment and facilities and calling
the Emergency Services when required. Arrangements should be made for an Appointed
Person to be available to undertake these duties at all times when people are at work.

In the absence of the First Aider, employers must appoint a person for this purpose.
It should be remembered that Appointed Persons are not First Aiders and should not attempt to
give First Aid for which they have not been trained.

This course is ideal for individuals who wish to gain knowledge of emergency procedures and
attain a recognised qualification in First Aid.
