Construction sites are busy, often hazardous places where accidents can happen in an instant. OSHA requires employers to ensure that prompt first aid treatment is available for injured employees. This can be done by providing a trained first aid provider on-site or by ensuring that emergency medical services are within reasonable proximity to the jobsite.
The reality is that many New England construction sites, especially those in rural areas, are not always close to hospitals or emergency care. That’s why Construction Site First Aid Training is not just an OSHA compliance measure, it’s a critical safeguard for your team.

Our expert instructors come directly to your company’s location, making it convenient and effective for your team to receive the training they need.
Why First Aid Training is Essential on Construction Sites
The first few minutes after an accident are often the most critical. OSHA standards are designed to make sure that adequate first aid is available until professional medical care arrives. For construction companies, having workers trained in First Aid and CPR can mean the difference between life and death.
With risks ranging from falls and burns to sudden illnesses and opioid-related emergencies, ensuring your crew is trained and confident in responding to injuries protects both employees and the business.
