This guidance is for employers and sets out what you need to do to address first-aid provision in the workplace.
It provides guidance on:
managing the provision of first aid (first-aid kit, equipment, rooms etc)
requirements and training for first-aiders
requirements for appointed persons
making employees aware of first-aid arrangements
first aid and the self-employed
cases where first-aid regulations do not apply
emphasise employers' responsibilities to take account of employees’ mental health in their first-aid needs assessment
change the term 'catastrophic bleeding' to 'life-threatening bleeding' with more guidance on what employers should do if they identify this as a risk in their workplace
simplify guidance on first aid training providers.
The updates do not change what is required to comply with health and safety legislation.
