Course Summary

The Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981 require employers to provide adequate and appropriate equipment, facilities and personnel to enable first aid to be given to employees/visitors if they are injured or become ill whilst on your premises. These Regulations apply to all workplaces including those with five or fewer employees and to the self-employed.
