The Regulations require employers to provide adequate and appropriate equipment, facilities and personnel to enable first aid to be given to employees who are injured or become ill at work.
The Health and Safety Executive may, by a certificate in writing, exempt any person or class of persons, from any of the requirements imposed by these Regulations, and any such exemption may be granted subject to conditions and to a limit of time and may be revoked at any time.(2)
The Executive shall not grant any such exemption unless, having regard to the circumstances of the case, and in particular to—(a)the conditions, if any, which it proposes to attach to the exemption, and(b)any other requirements imposed by or under any enactment which apply to the case, it is satisfied that the health, safety and welfare of employees and self-employed persons and the health and safety of other persons who are likely to be affected by the exemption will not be prejudiced in consequence of it.
