Why employees need first aid at work

Accidents at the workplace can arise at any moment.

Every company should include the formation of Emergency Responders within an emergency preparedness plan. First Aid at Work. Employees who are Emergency Responders are trained to deliver CPR & first aid at the workplace and know what to do in case of an accident before the emergency medical services (EMS) arrives. Thus, they learned a fundamental human skill that could make the difference in saving someone’s life.
