First Aid Training during 'Lockdown'
How does the Coronavirus and 'social distancing' affect first aid for your business?
The Health & Safety Executive have given some advice on how to still look after your staff and fulfil your legal obligation.
- Re-assess your first aid needs do you have less staff in? Then you may need less trained first aiders.
- Is your site near other working business’s. Could you share first aiders?
- Reduce or stop higher risk parts of your business.
- Your first aiders training about to expire? For First Aid at Work and Emergency First Aid at Work you can extend it by three months if it expired on or after 16th of March
