Emergency First Aid at Work

This 6-hour qualification meets the requirements of the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 and the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1982. The learner will gain the knowledge and practical competence required to deal with a wide range of workplace first aid situations. The qualification is also suitable for people with responsibility for the provision of first aid in other settings such as voluntary and community groups. This qualification is regulated in the UK and awarded by First Aid Awards (FAA).

To pass the training and receive full certification, attendees need to be able to get down to floor level and back up again unaided to participate in the CPR element of the training. If attendees are unable to do this, they will be issued with a certificate of attendance but not the full qualification certificate.
