September 14: World First Aid Day

The Bovis Group, a player committed to the safety of all

The Bovis Group's commitment to the safety of its employees

On the occasion of World First Aid Day, the Bovis Group reiterates its unwavering commitment to the health and safety of its employees. At Bovis, safety is a top priority, and we make every effort to ensure that every employee is prepared to respond effectively in the event of an emergency.

First aid training: a priority for everyone

At the Bovis Group, we believe that every employee should be able to save lives. That's why we regularly organise first aid training for all our services. These practical sessions allow everyone to master the essential gestures in the event of an accident, thus guaranteeing optimal responsiveness in the workplace.

Defibrillators at all our locations: safety at your fingertips

Because every second counts during a cardiac arrest, the Bovis Group has deployed automatic external defibrillators (AEDs) at all its sites. Thanks to these devices and the training of our teams, we are ready to intervene quickly and effectively to save lives.

Maintaining skills: an ongoing commitment

Safety is not limited to initial training. We ensure a rigorous follow-up of the first aid skills of our employees. Regular refresher sessions are held to maintain a high level of preparedness and incorporate the latest developments in safety protocols.

OHS training: an investment in prevention

The Occupational First Aid (SST) training is a central element of our prevention policy. It aims to train our employees in first aid while strengthening their ability to prevent occupational risks.

Clear objectives:

• Train employees to intervene in the event of an accident.

• Strengthen risk prevention within the company.

• Maintain up-to-date skills through regular refresher sessions.

The OHS training is open to all employees of the Bovis Group, without prerequisites. This allows each employee to actively contribute to collective safety.

Practical content:

• Identification of risk situations.

• Prevention and protection actions.

• First aid: safety, haemorrhage, choking, various injuries, use of the defibrillator, cardiac massage, etc.

• Updated regulations and procedures.

Valued Certification:

Participants receive a Occupational First Aid (SST) certificate, valid for 24 months, equivalent to the PSC1 of the Ministry of the Interior.

Adapted modalities:

A Commitment to Collective Security

The Bovis Group is committed to protecting its employees by investing in training and first aid equipment. By celebrating World First Aid Day, we reaffirm our commitment to creating a safe and responsive work environment, where every employee is a key player in collective safety.
