This qualification is based on the HSE training standard for delivery of First Aid at Work courses for the purposes of the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981.
The aim of the qualification is to enable learners to attain the knowledge and competencies needed to deal with a range of emergency first aid situations. Learners should be able to demonstrate the practical administration of safe, prompt, effective first aid in emergency situations with an understanding of the role of the first aider.
The qualification is designed for people who have a specific responsibility at work, or in voluntary and community activities, to provide First Aid when dealing with an emergency situation.
This qualification is comprised of one mandatory unit with a total value of 1 credit with 8 guided learning hours*
*Minimum contact teaching hours apply to this qualification - to comply with HSE/Skills for Health guidance the EFAW qualification should be delivered in no less than 6 hours (1 day) excluding breaks.
Note – Whilst a first aider’s certificate has expired, that person will not be accepted as a workplace first aider under the Health & Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981, so employers should be encouraged to requalify their first aiders early.
The Level 2 Award in Emergency First Aid at Work has one unit that Learners are required to complete in order to achieve the qualification.
