Every day, first aiders across Australia respond to workplace accidents and emergencies. This practical eBook helps you assess your first aid protocols before you need them, so your team is ready when it matters.
Some workplaces carry more risk than others. A foundry is more hazardous than an office, but no workplace is free from hazards, injuries or illness. Whatever your industry, you need to be stocked with the right first aid and life-saving equipment, and have trained staff ready to act.
Based on the requirements set by Safe Work Australia, this guide covers:
- Safe Work Australia obligations for businesses and PCBUs
- How to perform a workplace risk assessment
- Meeting Australian safety standards in your industry
- The most common workplace risks and how to prepare for them
- First aid requirements for different worksites and worker numbers
- Types of first aid kits, what to include, and how to maintain them
- How to budget for first aid products and ongoing replenishment
Whether you manage a small office, a construction site or a multi-site operation, this eBook gives you a clear starting point to review your first aid setup and identify gaps. Use it alongside the Safe Work Australia Code of Practice to bring your workplace up to standard.
