Understanding FAW vs. EFAW: Which First Aid Course Fits Your Needs?
Both First Aid at Work (FAW) Level 3 and Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) courses equip professionals with essential life-saving skills, but they serve different purposes. FAW provides a more thorough education in workplace first aid, making it suitable for higher-risk environments, while EFAW offers a fast, one-day qualification ideal for low-risk workplaces requiring quick certification.
Training Duration & Workplace Application
✅ EFAW: A one-day course suited for businesses in offices, retail, and public spaces where first aid requirements are minimal.
✅ FAW: A three-day comprehensive training program, preparing individuals for emergencies in warehouses, factories, and industrial sites.
FAW: Expanding Your Career Opportunities
Holding an FAW qualification enhances employability, as it meets the government’s recommendation for businesses to have one trained first aider per 50 employees. This certification can be a valuable asset, positioning security professionals and staff as preferred candidates for a wider range of roles.
