Employers have an obligation under the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 and Approved Code of Practice (ACOP L74, Second Edition) to make adequate and appropriate first aid provision for their workforce.

It is recommended that someone is able to undertake first aid duties at all times when people are at work.

Your First Aid at Work certificate is valid for 3 years, after which you will have to attend a refresher course.

Employers are required to carry out an assessment of first aid needs. This involves consideration of:

  • Hazards and risks in your workplace
  • The number of employees
  • Accident history
  • Distribution of the workforce
  • Employees who are lone workers or need to travel as part of their role
  • Annual leave – we recommend you appoint an additional first aider to cover absences

After completing a final written and practical assessment successful candidates receive an HSE approved certificate valid for three years.

It is strongly recommended that you update your skills by taking an annual refresher.

A replacement certificate can be issued for £20.

The First Aid at Work course is a comprehensive three day course that covers everything you need to know to be the official first aider in your company. It is especially useful for companies that are in high risk sectors or have many employees.
