Why choose Prevom as a partner?
Our company emergency response officer training focuses on training employees to act appropriately in workplace emergencies. During this course, participants learn life-saving actions such as CPR, the use of an AED and how to deal with suffocation, severe bleeding and burns. In addition, the course also covers minor accident management and basic firefighting. Emergency response workers play a crucial role in preventing escalations in accidents or incidents, and attending this training contributes to the health and safety of all employees in an organisation.
Besides teaching these practical skills, the course also pays attention to developing participants’ self-confidence so that they can act quickly and effectively in a crisis situation. A major benefit of this training is that it not only increases immediate safety in the workplace, but also helps companies meet their legal obligations. Many organisations are legally obliged to have a sufficient number of trained in-house emergency and first-aid workers on staff to act in case of an emergency. Training provides for this and ensures that employees acquire the right knowledge to take on this responsibility.
The course is suitable for companies in all kinds of sectors, from industry to office environments, and can be tailored to the specific risks encountered in a particular work environment.
