First Aid Training providers are reporting that many companies are declining refresher and update courses because they feel that in today’s climate they need to reserve their funds.

The 1981 Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations Act requires employers “to provide adequate personnel, training, equipment and facilities to render First aid to their employees should they become injured or taken ill at work”.

The role of the Health and Safety Executive is to “prevent people being killed, injured or made ill at work” and to enforce the law. The aims of a First Aider are to Preserve life, to prevent the situation from becoming worse, and to promote recovery.

It stands to reason that many a casualty could have been helped more by having a First Aider present, thus preventing the need for a lengthy time off work, or even, in worst case scenario, loss of life.
