Who is required to be certified in CPR?
Federal OSHA Standard 1910.151 states: “In the absence of an infirmary, clinic, or hospital in near proximity to the workplace which is used for the treatment of all injured employees, a person or persons should be adequately trained to render first aid.” (OSHA defines “first aid” as, “emergency care for injuries and sudden illnesses including cardiopulmonary resuscitation,” also know in OSHA Standards as, “emergency medical services.”)
