Which First Aid Course Do Plumbers Need?

For many plumbers and small trade teams, Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) is a strong starting point. It covers CPR, choking, bleeding, burns and unconscious casualtiesβ€”ideal for common trade risks and lone working scenarios.

Where risk assessments or site requirements demand broader coverage, First Aid at Work (FAW) is the more comprehensive option.

Common plumber-related incident risks:

  • Cuts and bleeding from tools and sharp materials
  • Burns/scalds from hot water systems and pipework
  • Falls from ladders and awkward access points
  • Manual handling strains and sudden collapses
  • Lone working emergencies in domestic properties

Onsite Training for Plumbing Teams

If you’ve got a larger team (or multiple engineers), onsite training may be more cost-effective than sending people to an open course. We can deliver at your premises or a suitable site location, subject to minimum numbers.
