Basic First Aid for the Workplace

Overview

The good health and resulting productivity of employees is one area that is often overlooked as a means of improving a company's profitability. Whether employees work in a high-hazard or low-hazard environment, they face a variety of risks. Shock, bleeding, poisonings, burns, temperature extremes, musculoskeletal injuries, bites and stings.

These risks are compounded when employees do not feel well. Their lack of concentration can result in costly injuries. If your employees are not prepared to handle these types of injuries on all shifts and their employees are left untreated until an ambulance arrives, a victim's condition may worsen and injuries can become far more debilitating, which leads to greater medical costs and lost productivity.

It makes good business sense to provide first aid and appropriate training to all your employees. By making such a minimal investment in keeping your employees safe and well-trained, the good health and resulting productivity of employees is one area that is often overlooked as a means of improving a company's profitability. Moreover, it is the law.
