Handcuffing (ASP)
This course has reliably provided employers and their staff, insurers and customers with confidence in this area of significant risk and the workplace
Law enforcement personnel in the UK are increasingly carrying out a law enforcement functions and duties and may be required to use force and exercise powers of arrest, security and enforcement officers and those employed as crown servants, court bailiffs fisheries officers & event managers etc. Any authority to carry these cuffs should be given by the event manager of the establishment that you are working in.
Lack of credible training in Law Enforcement and the Security Sector leaves staff, service users and employers at risk of harm, it may also lead onto prosecution and substantial compensation claims when things go wrong.
This 1 day course will assist various enforcement personnel by helping them identify conflict and give them the verbal and tactical skills to defuse conflict situations. In certain cases where this fails and the lawful use of force is the last option or a lawful arrest is required, then they can apply court defensible tactical communication and physical control in a safe and official manner.
Our Skills are based around UK Civil Police techniques. They can be mapped to existing techniques used by the civil police and are Court credible, and have already be taught to corporate event managers and Security Managers.
The programme can be delivered specifically to your company requirements in-house or at the location of your choice by our own accredited and vastly experienced instructors who are ex Home Office Law enforcement and serving Police personnel.
