As an SIA licence holder, you play a vital role in protecting members of the public - often in the most demanding circumstances. Physical intervention should only be used as a last resort.
The least forceful option is always the right one.
In a dangerous situation you should communicate and deescalate the situation, only resort to physical invention if it is the only way to prevent harm.
Protect the public and your self by avoiding high risk techniques for example: neck holds, or ground restraint.
For update guidance on safer restraint, please visit the SIA website.
