Throughout the guide the author uses persuasive language. This implies that the reader should
consider the information to help provide a safer workplace. The guide only suggests that to have
a safe workplace and to decrease fatalities, you need certain aspects in the first-aid program.
The layout of this guide provides an easy and logical pathway that the reader can follow. This
pathway is created by the charts and bullet points.
Criticisms
Throughout the guide, bullet points are used. If used moderately, bullet points can be useful to
convey information to the reader. However, excessive use can be dull. The extensive use can
cause readers to lose interest in the rest of the guide. The use of subsections could eliminate the
bullet points and help retain the attention of the reader.
Since the introduction section goes over first-aid programs, the need for these programs should
be presented before this section. The relevance of first-aid programs needs to be addressed prior
to the introduction. By establishing the need for these programs prior to the introduction,
managers will see the importance of them. This could convince them to start up programs that
will improve safety in their companies.
Conclusion
The guide is presented in a very professional manner with some minor corrections that can be
made to make the guide more appealing to the reader. With these improvements it would be
considered a great piece of technical writing.
