Marketing and teaching the full suite of Emergency First Response (EFR) courses offers substantial income opportunity for EFR Instructors looking to grow a reputable first aid business. From Primary Care through to Care for Children and AED training, there are many course options available depending on your market needs and business plan.
In Great Britain and Northern Ireland employers are legally required to provide equipment, facilities and personnel to ensure employees receive immediate attention if injured or taken ill at work. This legislation applies to all workplaces, including those with less than five employees and to the self-employed.
What does this mean for your business? In the first instance, you may market EFR CPR and first aid courses to employers needing a basic level of provision. There is further business opportunity in the form of the EFR First Aid at Work (GB&NI) course when risk assessments deem this level of provision necessary.
The EFR First Aid at Work (GB&NI) course, previously approved by the Health and Safety Executive until first aid ceased to be regulated in 2013, is an excellent business development tool, allowing you to expand your EFR course offerings and penetrate a vast and busy workplace environment.
EFR Instructors living abroad, with potential to tap into UK-centric audiences, may also conduct the EFR First Aid at Work (GB&NI) course as long as all standards and procedures and course conduct are all carried out as outlined in the Instructor Guide.
