Tactical Handcuffing Physical Intervention and the use of Restraint Techniques are a health and safety risk, and the risk of injury to both service-users and staff alike can be very high. What can be done to minimise or eliminate the risk when the level is unacceptably high? Physical Intervention is a manual handling activity and is therefore, as such, covered by the Manual Handling Operations Regulations 1992.

These regulations actually state that, where-ever possible, the manual handling of any load should be automated or mechanised. In the case of restraint therefore, the use of hand-cuffs or another suitable restraint equipment should therefore be considered as part of the risk assessment process. Contrary to popular belief, the safe and correct use if restraint equipment is lawful in accordance with the law regarding reasonable force, human rights and health and safety legislation. Therefore, in certain high-risk situations it may be necessary, as well as lawful, for front-line staff to use restraint equipment.

The benefits are as follows: – Simple and effective to use. – Reduces the risk of having to use restraint for a long period of time. – Cost-effective and time-saving. – Prevents the restriction of breathing on the part of the service-user. – Assists in making the moving and handling of people easier.
