Accidents can happen anywhere — and when they do, your team’s first response can make the difference between life and death.
From minor cuts and sprains to cardiac arrest, employees must know how to act fast, stay calm, and follow the correct procedures.
At Ireland Safety Training, we offer a fully online, CPD-accredited First Aid Awareness Course, ideal for any business in Ireland or the UK that wants to improve emergency readiness and meet legal requirements.
Employers must ensure that:
Adequate first aid is available at the workplace
First aiders are trained and confident
First aid kits are accessible and stocked
Emergency protocols are clearly communicated
In Ireland, this duty comes under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work (General Application) Regulations 2007. In the UK, it’s the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981.
While this course doesn’t replace full occupational first aid certification, it provides essential awareness for all staff.
With proper training, even non-first aiders can:
Recognise emergencies early
Respond effectively before medics arrive
Support colleagues with bleeding, choking, or unconsciousness
Prevent shock and secondary injuries
Reduce panic and confusion on-site
Teams trained in first aid awareness:
Are more prepared to act in high-stress situations
Build trust with coworkers and customers
Strengthen the company’s reputation for responsibility and care
This course is suitable for:
Office workers and administrators
Warehouse and retail staff
Customer service teams
Hospitality, hotel, and restaurant workers
Contractors and field workers
Course modules include:
What is first aid and who should give it?
