Answer

Can supermarket staff in Mallorca legally give first aid in an emergency?

Yes, staff can usually help by calling emergency services, guiding responders and providing basic first aid within their training and abilities. The main issue is not legal permission but whether staff have practical training and clear procedures to follow. Regular CPR and first-responder training can make a real difference in a public emergency.
