Course Introduction
Construction sites are high-risk environments where injuries and medical emergencies can occursuddenly. Having trained first aid responders on-site is not only a regulatory requirement but also a crucialelement of workplace safety and incident response.
This focused two-day course equips participants with the knowledge and hands-on skills needed torespond effectively to accidents, injuries, and life threatening situations commonly encountered on construction sites. Aligned with international best practices and construction safety guidelines, this program helps organizations maintain compliance and save lives.
Course Objectives
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Recognize common construction-related injuries and health risks
- Apply appropriate first aid techniques in workplace scenarios
- Manage emergencies such as bleeding, fractures, and cardiac arrest
- Perform CPR and operate an AED (Automated External Defibrillator)
- Assess situations quickly and make informed decisions
- Communicate with emergency responders and document incidents
- Comply with occupational first aid and construction safety regulations.
