Manufacturing plants, warehouses, and distribution centers are teeming with ways that workers may get injured. Part of a successful safety plan is training your employees in basic first aid, so they are better prepared to respond when workplace injuries or health issues arise.

New Courses
Intertek Alchemy is introducing 5 new “Basic First Aid” courses to equip your team with this essential knowledge so your workforce can better respond to incidents and remain productive. These courses each cover a specific topic in depth using storytelling to help improve knowledge retention and scenario-based questions to encourage critical thinking before a real-world situation presents itself.

• Basic First Aid: Sudden Injuries to the Face and Head – UEM409
• Basic First Aid: Sudden Injuries to the Body – UEM410
• Basic First Aid: Major Illness and Health Issues – UEM411
• Basic First Aid: Burns – UEM412
• Basic First Aid: Bleeding and Shock – UEM413
• X-ray and Radiation Safety – UEM414

While X-Ray equipment improves contamination detection and quality control, the radiation emitted by the machines can create unique risks for your staff working nearby. This course will help employees work more safely and reduce injury and workers’ compensation risks.

Updated Course
If your facility is in a colder geography or contains environments for keeping products cold, you can help your workers understand precautions they can take and symptoms to watch out to prevent injury and illness. We have updated this course to prepare your learners for real-world tasks: Cold Stress – UEM44.

All the courses above are in the Workplace Safety category in your Alchemy Catalog. They are available in English, Spanish, and Canadian French and you can deliver them via eLearning or in group training. We encourage you to review the courses and add them to targeted learning plans based on role, risk exposure, or site requirements.

We also released 3 more new or updated Workplace Safety library courses on 5/28/2026:

• (NEW) Ammonia Awareness: REFRESHER – UEM061
• Ammonia Awareness – UEM20
• Ammonia Accident Prevention and First Aid – UEM21

As we plan for upcoming course libraries, we invite you to help shape the direction by sharing your feedback with us at [email protected].
