Emergency First Aid at Work Training

Our Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) Training Courses

Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW)

Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) is a 1 day course, covering the most common emergency first aid procedures. If the employer’s first aid risk assessment identifies the working environment to be low or medium risk this may be the appropriate course. For higher risk work places and/or remote environments, the 3 day First Aid at Work course may be more appropriate.

Contour Training’s industry experience includes working with both public and private sector, construction and utility sectors, government organisations, local authorities, MOD and conservation groups. We have some of the most experienced Lantra Awards and NPORS trainers in the UK, many of whom are also highly experienced with all types of all-terrain vehicles.

Awarding Bodies

We can organise courses accredited by Lantra Awards or our own Contour Training certification. In both cases the courses will comply with HSE requirements.
