Businesses and Workplaces

Every workplace is different. We help businesses build practical first aid confidence around their actual team, hazards, working hours and location.

Good to know

  • First aid needs depend on workplace hazards, staff numbers, shifts and access to emergency medical assistance.

  • The time it takes medical help to arrive can matter more than the physical distance to the nearest hospital.

  • Remote, isolated and after-hours workers may require additional emergency planning.

  • An AED cannot help if nobody can find it or staff are afraid to use it.

  • Emergency instructions should include the exact address, entry point, floor and access details.

These considerations are reflected in WorkSafe Victoria’s workplace first aid guidance. WorkSafe Victoria
