Guide to First Aid needs

The HSE guidelines, outlined in their Approved Code of Practice (ACOP), recommend the following first aid cover (this is a rough guide, and more details can be found in the HSE ACOP):

For Low Hazard Environments:

  • Less than 25 employees – At least one Appointed Person
  • 25 to 50 employees – At least one First Aider Trained in Emergency First Aid
  • More than 50 employees – At least one trained First Aider for every 100 employees

For High Hazard Environments:

  • Less than 5 employees – At least one Appointed Person
  • 5 to 50 employees – At least one First Aider Trained in Emergency First Aid or a Qualified First Aid at Work First Aider based on an assessment of the type of injuries that might occur in the workplace
  • More than 50 employees – At least one trained First Aid at Work First Aider for every 50 employees

At Over-Watch Training, we provide tailored First Aid Training to meet these needs, offering courses like Emergency First Aid at Work Courses, First Aid at Work UK, and First Aid for Children. 

Our courses ensure that employees are prepared for any situation, from CPR Training to managing shock, bleeding, and other emergencies.
