Level 3 Award in First Aid at Work (FAW) (RQF)
Did you know that an estimated 611,000 workers in Britain sustained an injury at work in 2014/15?
The Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 require all employers to make arrangements to ensure their employees receive immediate attention if they are injured or taken ill at work. This includes carrying out a risk assessment, appointing a suitable amount of first aiders and providing appropriate first aid training. However, having the correct first aid provision in the workplace is not just a legal requirement, it is incredibly
important for the safety of all members of staff!
Who is the FAW Course for?
The QA Level 3 Award in First Aid at Work (RQF) qualification is specifically designed for individuals who wish to act as a first aider in their workplace. Successful candidates will learn how to manage a range of injuries and illnesses that could occur at work and will be equipped with the essential skills needed to give emergency first aid.
What’s more, as a regulated qualification, employers can book this course for their employees and rest assured that they
have fulfilled their legal responsibilities for providing quality first aid training, without having to undertake any lengthy due
diligence checks introduced in the recent HSE changes.
