October 30, 2020 Dear Jonathan Duran, Greetings! Thank you for your request dated Oct 29, 2020 04:51:15 PM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch. You asked for Department Order regarding recommended number of hours for Standard First Aid and Basic Life Support. We appreciate your proactive stance on the requirement of number of hours for Standard First Aid and Basic Life Support Training. Currently, the DOLE has yet to release its Department Order on Accreditation of First Aid Training Organization as this still has to passed the usual process of tripartite consultation. Currently, First Aid Training Organizations has a variable training design on First Aid Training. For instance, the Red Cross also has this Occupational First Aid which is a 16 hour FA Training Course and Basic FA Training minus the use of AED which has a total of 24 hours. The 32 hours that you have mentioned refers to the standard basic first aid training with automated external defibrillator. The above mentioned soon to be released Department Order shall standardized things. We apologize for not disclosing it to you prematurely as it is still in the consultation process. What we currently have is Labor Advisory 10-19 Organizations Recognized as FA Training Providers which was issued on Oct. 21, 2019 (Please see attached). We hope that we have addressed your concerns. Thank you. Respectfully, Mark Valeros FOI Receiving Officer
