Both organized and unorganized sectors are covered by this Act and non-compliance with any directives will lead to consequences.

- Record all that happened, like where, when and how, the identities of those who witnessed it, as well as what you did to prevent it.
- Texts, online posts, notices, and addresses can all be saved. This information can be useful if you file a lawsuit.
First Aid Training:
When there is an injury where anyone is wounded, they must get prompt help or care. This is done to avoid any injuries or to hold the survivor safe well before a trained emergency practitioner appears, if possible.
If it is a small or large accident, a swift reaction is required but the first minutes when somebody is hurt will decide why the majority of the incident evolves.
First Aid Practices

- When anyone requires assistance following an accident or illness, you should not hesitate to assist if necessary.
- Inside of any incident, encouragement will include more comfort than you would imagine but help individuals in setting goals.
Before a care practitioner arrives, you must administer first aid procedures to improve the wounded person’s health.
