First Aid Requirements and RIDDOR

LEARNING OUTCOMES * Learn about and work towards compliance with RIDDOR * Learn how to gain an understanding of your own health and safety requirements for your workplace * Understand RIDDOR and what injuries/illnesses must be reported and what doesn't need to be reported   ABOUT THIS COURSE This First Aid Requirements and RIDDOR course is designed to be used by both managers and employers to help decide what first aid personnel they require. It also explains what has to be reported to RIDDOR, who should do this and how. First aid can save lives and prevent minor injuries from becoming major ones, so having people with the right training in the right places is essential for the safety of your staff. RIDDOR stands for Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 1995 - these govern the reporting of accidents at work. According to the HSE, in 2015/16, 621,000 workers sustained an injury at work, yet only 72,702 injuries and workplace accidents were reported to RIDDOR. Not reporting an accident is a criminal offence and can cause major complications for businesses. Make sure you understand your responsibilities and know how to report to RIDDOR with our First Aid Requirements and RIDDOR Training. This training programme is designed to be used in conjunction with our First Aid Appointed Person Training. This title is specifically for work environments with a relatively small number of employees, and where the risks are low. This eLearning course only provides awareness education. Face to face training would be needed in addition in order to complete all-round skills and knowledge to be able to carry this forward practically in your organisation.   CERTIFICATE DOWNLOAD AND PRINT Each of our courses ends with a multiple-choice test to measure your knowledge of the material. This First Aid Requirements and RIDDOR Training course concludes with a 20 question multiple-choice test with a printable certificate. In addition, brief in-course questionnaires guide the user through the sections of the training and are designed to reinforce learning and ensure maximum user engagement throughout.   What does my certificate include? Your First Aid Requirements and RIDDOR Training Certificate includes your name, company name (if applicable), name of course taken, pass percentage, date of completion, expiry date and stamps of approval or accreditations by recognised authorities.   Why is this training important? It's important that you comply with the law and know the ways in which it affects you and the way you work.
