Description
Understand and meet your workplace first aid duties with confidence. This First Aid Needs Assessment Template is designed for UK-based office environments and low-to-medium risk workplaces. It helps assess and record what first aid provision is required under the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981.
