FIRST AID AT WORK (LEVEL 3)
First aid at Work was identified as being a level 3 qualification. This is a 3 day course and looks at the content of an emergency first aid at work course, but includes a host of additional injuries and illnesses making it suitable for higher hazard environments.
level 3 refers to the first aid at work course, which is designed for higher risk workplaces and assigned three credits, because it takes three days (24 hours) to complete. In this course, first-aiders will cover a wider range of skills including a variety of medical conditions , such as how to deal with someone who is having a heart attack or seizure.

What are the Differences Between First Aid at Work and Emergency First Aid at Work Courses?
There are two types of first aid qualification that certify someone as a first aider: First Aid at Work (FAW) and Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW). First Aid at Work is a Level 3 qualification, while Emergency First Aid at Work is classed as a Level 2 qualification.
The main difference between Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) and First Aid at Work (FAW) is the depth of training. Emergency first aid at work is designed for low-risk workplaces, while first aid at work is designed for higher-risk workplaces. First aid at work also provides comprehensive training for those who are required to be the designated first aider within their workplace.
The First aid at Work course is 3 days long while the emergency First aid at work is only 1 day.
The content of each course also differs, with the First Aid At Work course covering a wider range of topics such as dealing with an unconscious casualty, heart attacks and strokes, and spinal injuries. The emergency first aid at work course covers basic life support, choking, burns and bleeds.
