The official statistics for the HSE section of the gov.uk website show some truly eye-opening facts surrounding the impact of accidents and injuries in workplaces all over the UK. Let’s take a deeper look at some of these statistics that impact the necessity for staff to be trained on up-to-date practices for first aid at work in Stafford/elsewhere in the UK:
Statistics for 2021/2022
In the 2021/2022 bracket: 1.8 million working people suffered from a work-related illness, 61,713 injuries to employees were reported under RIDDOR and a mammoth 36.8 million working days were lost due to work-related illness and workplace injury. Improperly trained first aiders in your workplace are contributing to these numbers and the number of injuries only pertains to those that were reported. If staff assume reporting injuries goes unnoticed or haven’t had the necessity of responding appropriately to work accidents relayed to them within recent memory, they might compromise your company in more ways than one.
