introduction - First Aid at work Aberdeen & Aberdeenshire

---

 HSE cannot tell you what First Aid Training provisions you should make. You, as an employer, are best placed to understand the exact nature of your workplace and decide what you need to provide.

First aid provision must be ‘adequate and appropriate in the circumstances’. This means that you must provide sufficient first aid equipment (first aid kit), facilities and personnel at all times.

In order to decide what type of educational service you need,  make sure you undertake a first-aid needs assessment. This assessment should consider the circumstances of your workplace, workforce and the hazards and risks that may be present. The findings will help you decide what first-aid arrangements you need to put in place.

We can provide assistance with your first aid requirements, throughout Aberdeen & Aberdeenshire.

Making Training Fun, Engaging, and Memorable is my motto.  I do not want attendees to have the feeling that training is a chore, I want them to find it  enjoyable, and be confident to put potential life saving skills into practice should they be called upon.

 Workplace safety is about being informed and prepared.

As a business, you are responsible for taking the necessary steps to ensure the safety of your workplace for your staff and customers. Safe businesses benefit from increased productivity, quality service and ultimately, develop a good reputation. Making safety a priority shows that you care about the wellbeing of your staff and that you are a responsible employer. One of the most effective ways for you as an employer to demonstrate that workplace safety is a priority, is to provide quality training for your employees.
