The main objectives of the project are to reduce employees’ fear of providing first aid at the workplace, to increase practical skills and motivation to provide first aid and to make these trainings more attractive. The target group is employees of companies who will actively participate in first aid training using the provided methodology.

The project will be led by trained coordinators and lecturers from the Slovak Red Cross in Žilina and representatives of the Research Institute of Occupational Safety and Health as experts in occupational safety and health awareness. The motivation of the project is to provide quality first aid education and training in order to reduce the number of work accidents and to enable employees to provide first aid effectively.
