ABSTRACT

First aiders trained by the Red Cross or St. John’s Ambulance Brigade are no longer recognized unless their trainer had been approved by the HSE.

All employers with 10 or more employees must, by 1 January 2004, have available a copy of the ‘new’ accident book, form BI 510, in which an employee can record the fact of his/her injury. Copies of BI 520 are obtainable from HSE Books.
