What are the HSE first aid and mental health workplace standards?

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) sets statutory standards under the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981. They also offer guidance on mental health first aid at work, recommending that employers assess workplace stress and consider trained mental health first aiders alongside physical first aiders.
