Guide to First Aid in the Workplace eBook

Everyday, first aiders around the country are responding to accidents and emergencies in the workplace. With our guide we can make Australian workplaces safer.

Some workplaces are higher risk than others; foundries are more hazardous places than offices, it’s a given, however, no workplace is ever truly free from hazards, risks or illnesses. Regardless of regulation, it’s crucial for workplaces to be well stocked with important first aid and life-saving equipment, and have fully trained staff ready to handle any situation.
