Support Better Control and Restraint Training for Frontline Staff

Frontline professionals in healthcare, education, social care, and security can face challenging situations where personal safety is at risk. Control and restraint training helps staff understand safe intervention techniques, reduce the risk of injury, and use physical restraint only when it is lawful, necessary, and proportionate.

We urge employers and organisations to provide regular, high-quality control and restraint training alongside de-escalation and conflict management education. Investing in practical training supports safer workplaces, protects staff and those in their care, and encourages responsible decision-making during difficult situations.
