The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) 2013 First Aid Guidelines for Employers recommend that organisations carry out first aid risk assessments, specifically known as needs assessments. These assessments are beneficial for organisations of all sizes as they can impact how you implement your first aid strategy should there be an incident or emergency.
This guide highlights why companies shouldn’t ignore this vital first aid element, what’s involved with the assessments and how they can maximise their effectiveness.
What is a First Aid Needs Assessment?
A first aid at work risk assessment identifies the type of first aid training that people in your organisation will need. Not only that, but an inspection will determine how many people need to be first aid qualified at any given time during your operation hours, along with where they should be ideally located.
Advanced Tactical Resources provide bespoke training for individuals and organisations that need the above safety first aid regulations fulfilled.
ATR are not just specialist training and service providers, but for organisations that require authorised first aid equipment, we have products available via our shop.
