The biggest changes effect the requirements governing first aid courses themselves. The existing four day ‘First Aid at Work’ course is being cut to three days with a revised syllabus and lesson plans.

For the first time the HSE has acknowledged that smaller workplaces may only need basic first aid knowledge. As a result a newly designed one-day course has been brought in together with provisions recommending a short annual refresher to keep skills and knowledge up to date.
