First Aid: English/Spanish is a 50-minute bilingual online course that covers major categories of workplace injuries, first aid treatment techniques, and first aid kit preparation as referenced by OSHA standard 29 CFR 1910.151(b). It is designed for designated first aid responders and general employees in all industries and includes a downloadable certificate of completion.
OSHA standard 29 CFR 1910.151(b) requires that when no infirmary, clinic, or hospital is in near proximity to the workplace, employers must have at least one person adequately trained in first aid on site. For workplaces where serious injuries involving stopped breathing, cardiac arrest, or uncontrolled bleeding are possible, OSHA interprets this to mean emergency medical care must be available within 3 to 4 minutes - and if it is not, a trained first aid responder must be present. Failure to comply carries penalties up to $16,550 per serious violation.
This bilingual course orients your employees to the major categories of risk and types of first aid treatment they may encounter in the workplace. It covers an overview of first aid supplies and equipment, guidance on preparing and maintaining a first aid kit, and treatment techniques for common injuries including cuts, burns, fractures, and shock. The English/Spanish format ensures your entire workforce - including Spanish-speaking employees - receives consistent first aid training, which is particularly valuable for employers in construction, manufacturing, and agriculture where bilingual workforces are common.
OSHA's medical services and first aid standard (29 CFR 1910.151(b)) requires employers to have trained first aid personnel available when no medical facility is in near proximity to the workplace. The construction industry equivalent (29 CFR 1926.50(c)) requires a person with a valid first aid certificate to be available at each worksite. OSHA interprets near proximity to mean emergency care within 3-4 minutes for workplaces where serious injuries are possible, and up to 15 minutes for lower-risk environments like offices. Employees designated as first aid responders are also covered by the bloodborne pathogens standard (29 CFR 1910.1030), which requires additional training, hepatitis B vaccination offers, and personal protective equipment. First aid training certifications typically require renewal every two years. Penalties for failing to have trained first aid personnel available can reach $16,550 per serious violation, and OSHA applies this requirement regardless of company size.
