First Aid in the Workplace

Do you understand your obligations as a small or medium business? How many first aid kits or trained people do you need? In South Australia there is an excellent ‘Model Code of Practice: First Aid in the Workplace” – its readable, straight forward and designed for employers.

“We didn’t realise we needed another first aider trained – not knowing left us open to financial fines or liability if something had gone wrong. We strongly suggest businesses conduct a 5 minute review to the SA Code of Practice”.
