Physical Intervention and Risk Guide

Introduction

This guide to good practice for employers in the licensed retail sector is endorsed by both the Association of

Chief Police Officers and the SIA. It has been developed with the aim of reducing the incidents and impact

of injury to employees and customers, by promoting good practice and better training. The guidance

will benefit employers by showing the practical steps they can take to better protect their staff and

customers from harm and their business from potential litigation.

Who Should Use The Guide

Primarily owners and operators of licensed premises and venues where it is foreseeable that employed or

contract staff, such as door supervisors, event stewards and other security personnel, will use physical

intervention. However, the guide will also be extremely useful to contract providers of security personnel.
