The Importance of First Aid Training in Construction
Construction workers face life-threatening risks due to heavy machinery, falling hazards, and exposure to hazardous materials. In 2023, 23% of all fatalities in Australian workplaces occurred in the construction industry.
To keep constructions safe while at work, SafeWork NSW requires all worksites to have at least one nominated workplace first aider with a valid first aid accreditation. It is best practice for all construction workers to have the right first aid skills and knowledge to act during a worksite accident.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Long Does First Aid Training Take?
First aid training will take a full day, between 5-6 hours with our face-to-face delivery mode. To ensure that all participants can focus on the training, we recommend setting the day aside and minimising work activities.
Which Certificates Will Participants Recieve?
The following units will be included in your certificate:
- HLTAID011 – Provide First Aid
- HLTAID009 – Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation
- HLTAID010 – Provide basic emergency life support
Is There a Maximum Group Size for Onsite Training?
We can deliver onsite first aid training for up to 25 participants in one session. For class sizes of 1 to 7 a flat rate applies.
Where are the First Aid Courses Held?
We can come to your home or workplace and bring all required equipment, including a projector and props for the simulations.
How Will Participants be Graded for the First Aid Course?
First aid training completion is based on competency — each participant will be tested on practical skills and knowledge to determine if they meet competency standards. Our trainers are committed to helping each participant until they meet the requirements to successfully complete the course and obtain a Certificate of Attainment.
Who Should Attend First Aid?
It’s imperative that every workplace ensures there’s at least one team member trained in CPR and first aid to swiftly respond to emergencies onsite. However, it’s not just a responsibility limited to a single individual; extending CPR training to more team members is essential. Whether you’re a parent, caregiver, student, or community member, expanding CPR training within your workplace equips more individuals with life-saving skills.
