First Aid - BWY Requirement for First Aid Certificates |
|
From Ian Burgess Regional
Officer. |
|
As most of you are aware,
Personal Liability Insurance with the Wheel is only valid if you
hold a current 1st Aid Cert.It is your responsibility as a
teacher to obtain a valid certificate, not the Wheel's as it is
you who are insured not BWY. If you are asked why you do
not have a current certificate you can't reply "because the
Wheel has not laid on a course". It's your responsibility.
Certificates are accepted
from any individual or organisation who runs a course of minimum
5 hours, issues a certificate valid for three years and is
accepted by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).It is also
your responsibility to keep your certificate up to date. The
Wheel does not send out reminders. However, if you discover your
certificate has run out there is a three month period of grace
during which the Wheel's insurers, Perkins Slade will still
provide cover. After that though, you are NOT insured. |
