Qualsafe First Aid Calculator!
Having the correct first aid provision in your workplace is not only a legal requirement, it is incredibly important for the safety of you and your employees. However, here at JA First Aid Training, we know that it can be difficult to determine exactly how many First Aiders you need and what type of training they require.
That’s why we’re delighted to introduce our First Aid Requirements Calculator!
Designed to be quick and easy to use, this online assessment tool uses the recently updated HSE regulations to accurately calculate the cover you need in your workplace.
Simply input a few details about your workplace and the calculator will create a clear, printable report of your organisation’s requirements - ideal for demonstrating that you have completed your first aid needs assessment in line with the current legislation.
