Changes to first aid at work regulations
July 1st 2009 The Health and Safety
Executive (HSE) has
announced the biggest
changes to the first aid at
work regulations for over a
quarter of a century. From
1 October 2009 the four
day First aid at work
course will become a three
day course and a new one
day Emergency first aid at
work course will be
created. The HSE strongly
recommends that first
aiders do an Annual
refresher course.
St John Ambulance has
compiled a comprehensive
set of answers to questions
about how first aiders and
businesses will be affected
and what you need to do to
comply with the new
regulations.
